But if you think you need lots of luck, what else might you do?In the UK and US there are some strange traditions for bringing yourself a little more good luck. Some are hundreds of years old and some are much newer.Have you heard the saying “when you wish upon a star”?

The saying goes that if you see one you have been very lucky, and so if you make a wish, it will come true.Maybe you have heard of the lucky rabbits foot.

It is still true that a dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world. But the reasons why people keep a dog have changed.In the old days, people used to train(练) dogs to protect themselves against attacks by other animals.But now people in this city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then?Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robber(抢) but the most important reason is for companionship. For a child, a dog is his best friend when he has no friend to play with. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real child has grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship. （1）According to the passage, the dogs were trained for _ in the past.

Dogs are our best friend13. （10分）阅读理解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 Jerry really feel good about 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, its too late.Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we dont really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, Youre a lucky dog. Is he really on your side? If he says, Youre a lucky guy. or Youre a lucky gal. Thats being friendly. But lucky dog? Theres a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesnt see it himself. But bringing in the dog bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is he doesnt think you deserve your luck.How can you tell the real meaning behind someones 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? His posture(体态)? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. Spend some time thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you, and you may save another mistake.（1）The questions in the first paragraph tell us that the speaker _. A . feels happy because his friends were nice to himB . feels he may not have read his friends true feelings correctlyC . thinks it was a mistake to have broken up with his girlfriend HelenD . is sorry that his friends let him down（2）From the example Youre a lucky dog, we can learn that _. A . the speaker of the sentence is friendlyB . it means the same as Youre a lucky guy. or Youre a lucky gal.C . sometimes the words used by the speaker give a tip to the feeling behind the wordsD . the word dog shouldnt be used to describe a person（3）The passage tries to tell you how to _. A . avoid mistakes about money and friendsB . bring the dog bit into our conversationC . be friendly to other peopleD . avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you（4）What is important in listening to a person?
