4.【题干】We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. One might say, “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” “And Paul—why didn’t I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it’s too late. Why are we 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 says to you, “You are a lucky dog”. There’s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn’t see it himself. But bringing in the “dog” he puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck.“Just think of all the things you have to be thanking for” is another noise that says oneThing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn’t important. It’s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you have not got a date for Saturday night.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 his tone of voice, his posture, the look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.Therefore, when you hear some one saying, please try to know what he really means. Don’t just listen to what he says with your ears but feel the words he uses with your head. In this way you may make less mistakes.16. 【单项选择题】This passage tries to tell you how to ______. 选项： A:avoid mistakes about money and friends B: “size up” people C:avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you D:keep people friendly without trusting them

17.Where you save your money often depends on what you are saving for. If youare saving to buy a book or to go to a concert, then you would probably keepyour money somewhere in your room. If you are saving for a big purchase like awashing machine or a car, where would you save your money?One place to save money is the bank. If you put your money in a piggy bank (猪形蓄罐),one year later you'll still have the same amount of money as you putin. If you put your money in a savings account, one year later you'll have moremoney than you put in. Why?When you keep your money in a bank, your money earns interest. Interestis an amount of money a bank pays you to use your money. The bank usesyour money (and the money of other people, too) to lend to its customers andbusinesses. It will send you a statement several times a year. A bank statement tellsyou how much money you have in your account and how much interest you haveearned. If you leave your money in the bank, you can watch it grow!Another way you can save money is to get a certificate of deposit (CD). If youhave some money that you don't need to use for a long time, this is a good wayto make your money grow. You can get a CD at a bank. You agree not to use themoney for a certain period of time. That period might be from six months to fiveyears. You can't touch your money during that time. If you do, you must pay a penalty (罚款),or fee.
