问题 Have you ever argued with your loved ones over simple misunderstandings（误解）?Little wonder.We often believe we′re more skillful in getting our point across than we actually are,according to Boza?Keysar,a professor at the University of Chicago.In his recent study,speakers tried to express their?meanings using unclear sentences.Speakers who thought listeners understood were wrong nearly half the?time.Here′s some good advice to reduce misunderstanding:（1）Don′t trust what you see from the listener.Listeners often nod,look at you or say"uhhuh"to?be polite or move the conversation along.But it′s easy to consider these as signs of understanding.（2）Train the editor（编辑）in your head.If you say,"Beth discusses her problems with her?husband,"it′s not clear whether she′s talking to her husband or about him.Try instead,"Beth?talks to her husband about her problems."or"Beth talks to others about the problems with her?husband."（3）Ask listeners to repeat your message.Introduce your request by saying"I?want to be sure I said?that right."Questions like"How does that sound?"or"Does that make sense?"may also work.（4）Listen well.When on the receiving end,ask questions to be sure you′re on the same?page.After all,it isn′t just the speaker′s job to make his speech understood.The writer suggests that when talking to others,the speaker should__________A.know that listeners will show him that they understand his wordsB.express himself clearly even when he sees signs of understandingC.notice listener's signs of understandingD.look directly into his listener's eyes

选项 A.know that listeners will show him that they understand his words
B.express himself clearly even when he sees signs of understanding
C.notice listener's signs of understanding
D.look directly into his listener's eyes

答案 B

解析【考情点拨】推理判断题。【应试指导】由第二段可知，听者有时会点头等，但有时这只是他表示礼貌或使谈话顺利进行下去的表示，而并不代表他真正理解你所说的话，所以说话者即使看到表示理解的信号时也应该清楚地表达自己的观点。
