Why do we go wrong about our friends--or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning.And if we don't really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose someone tells you, "you're a lucky dog".Is he really on your side? If he says, "You're a lucky guy" or "You're a lucky gal", that's being friendly.But "lucky dog"? There's a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn't see it himself.But bringing in the "dog" bit puts you down a little.What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice?

听力原文:M: So, what do you want to do tomorrow?
W: Well, let's look at this city guide here. Uh, here's something interesting. Oh! Why don't we first visit the art museum in the morning.
M: Okay. I like that idea. And where do you want to eat lunch?
W: How about going to an Indian restaurant? Humm. The guide recommends one downtown a few blocks from the museum.
M: Now that sounds great. After that, what do you think about visiting the zoo? Umm, well, it says here that there are some very unique animals not found anywhere else.
W: Well, to tell the truth, I'm not really interested in going there. Why don't we go shopping instead? There are supposed to be some really nice places to pick up souvenirs.
M: Nail, I don't think that's a good idea. We only have few traveler's checks left, and I only have fifty dollars left in cash.
W: No problem. We can use your credit card to pay for MY new clothes.
M: Oh, no. I remember the last time you used my credit card for your purchases.

You can' t entirely blame men for this change in manners. The days are gone when women could be treated as the weaker sex. A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men; not just equality in jobs or education, but in social attitudes. Hold a door open for some women and you're likely to get an angry lecture on treating women as inferiors, unable to open doors for themselves. Take a girl out for a meal and she'll probably insist on paying her share of the bill.
It' s no wonder, then, that men have given up some of the gestures of politeness and consideration which they used to show towards women. On the other hand, man' s politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by true consideration for the needs and feelings of women, so that men can see women as equal human beings.
What do gentlemen now do when a lady gets on a crowded bus or train?
A.They will stand up reluctantly.
B.They will offer her their seats after a while.
C.They will pretend not to see her.
D.They will get off the bus.
