¡¡¡¡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 1 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 he pick up that he was friendly just because I had a nice car?¡± When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it's too late.

¡¡¡¡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 behing the words. Suppose someone tells you, ¡°Yor're a lucky dog.¡± 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 phrase ¡°lucky dog¡± 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? 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 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 agree with the tone of voice? His posture (×Ë̬)? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning behind what people say may save another mistake.

¡¡¡¡In the 1940s, Pinehaven Park was one of Crafton City's loveliest recreation(ÓéÀÖ)areas. Over 40 acres of woods and fields were open to the public. In the 1950s, part of the park was taken over by Crafton City's garbage. Fifteen acres were to be used for landfill disposal(ÀíÖÃ). As time went on, more and more of the park was used for garage disposal and less for recreation. Two years ago, the park was closed to the public for good. Along with household garbage, industrial chemicals had for years been dumped (Çãµ¹)in the Pinehaven landfill. These poisonous chemicals had begun to seep(Éø)back up through the soil. All of Pinehaven Park had become dangerously polluted.

¡¡¡¡ Last year, the fish in the Crafton River began to die. After a series of investigations(Ñо¿), it became clear that the people of Crafton City were not to blame. 100¡«150 miles upstream, big paper mills were dumping industrial wastes into the river. Little by little, the level of poison in the river began to rise. Finally, it became so polluted that the fish themselves could no longer survive.

¡¡¡¡Downtown Crafton used to be a quiet area. Ten years of remarkable growth changed that in a big hurry. But with Crafton City's new prosperity(·±ÈÙ)came a new problem: air pollution. And it is a serious problem. Air pollution levels in Crafton are regularly reaching those of the nation's large industrial cities.

D£®Industrial growth and progress have resulted in the pollution of Crafton City's water, air, and soil.

(2)According to the passage, what portion of the park had originally been marked for use as a garbage dump?

[¡¡¡¡]

A£®Less than half¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ B£®Exactly half

C£®About one third¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D£®Most of it

(3)As it is used in the passage, the phrase¡°for good¡±means ________.

[¡¡¡¡]

A£®practically¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡B£®for ever

C£®thoroughly¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D£®advantageously

(4)According to the passage, one result of dumping industrial chemicals into the landfill was that ________.
