But every day, we would sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of it would be like to live there.
Days later, we made a(n) —far below the asking price. Surprisingly, they didn’t us. They renewed their offer . It was also much more than we could afford, but far than the original asking price.

We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money, but most mistakes are about people. “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?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it’s too late.
Why did 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.
“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another noise that says one thing 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? Being wrapped（包裹）up in this expression 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 haven’t 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 consist with the 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.
1.When recalling（回忆）things that have happened between our friends and us, we may .
A. feel good to have friends standing by us
B. think it was a mistake to view some people as friends
C. misread some of our friends’ true feelings
D. keep looking back to find mistakes we’ve made
2.By saying “You’re a lucky dog,” the speaker .
A. is just being friendly
B. expresses the same meaning as “You’re a lucky guy”
C. may have a hidden envious feeling
D. intends to put the listener down
3.In listening to a person, the important thing is .
A. to listen carefully to how he utters his words
B. to observe his tone, his posture, and his clothes
C. to stop for a while and decide whether to believe him
D. to check his words against his manner, tone and posture
4.This passage tries to tell you how to .
A. avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you
B. say things appropriately to avoid mistakes
C. keep people always faithful to you
D. avoid regret about making mistakes

One morning, my husband Jerry went back to the kitchen as he just finished loading his car. “I guess filling my thermos(保温瓶) is all that I have left to do, and then I’m off.” Down the drain went the hot water that had been warming his thermos.
With a nostalgic(怀旧的) look on his face, he softly said: “Anytime I fill my thermos I think of your mom.” The tone in his voice was so tender as he spoke of my mother, who is sadly no longer with us.
“Oh honey, I know she’s watching and listening right now with a big smile on her face,” I responded, tears in my eyes.
One morning years ago when we were leaving, mother watched as Jerry was to fill his thermos. Mom then casually said, ‘Jerry, if you filled your thermos with hot water and let it sit a while, your coffee would stay hot for longer then.” With her simple suggestion, his face showed that he was shocked by his own lack of common sense. Well, of course it would!
He poured out the small amount of coffee already in the thermos and refilled it with boiling hot water. Then he poured the water and refilled it with hot coffee. Mom smiled as Jerry did so.
Words of wisdom from a loving mother-in-law made an impact that will never be forgotten. She never dreamed her words would be a treasured and everlasting memory in the heart of her son-in-law.
The lasting memories don’t necessarily come from major moments in life. Memories are often made during those small, ordinary times. Life is about small moments we share with friends and loved ones.
1.Which word best describes the author’s feeling in Paragraph 3? ____
A. Confused B. Concerned
C. Touched D. Interested
2.The underlined part “don’t necessarily” is similar in meaning to ________.
A. out of the question
B. without any doubt
C. certainly and absolutely
D. possibly but uncertainly
3. The message that the story intends to convey is ______.
A. how valuable a mother’s advice is to her children.
B. that lasting memories come from small things
C. what a wise woman the mother is to her son-in-law
D. why we should respect our parents and listen to them.
