二、长难句

1.Very often hearing is confused with listening.经常混淆听到和倾听。

hear是听到、听见的意思，而listen是倾听的意思。二者都有听的意思，但截然不同，如果不能把二者起分开，很容易理解为“经常混淆听和听”。confused 为谓语，采用一般现在时和被动语态。。

2.Verbal communication is a good means for people to understand each other.

for people to understand 为不定式，作后置定语。for people 为不定式的逻辑主语。each 为相互代词。a 为不定冠词。like 为谓语，采用一般现在时。

When a listener doesn't like the speaker, he may skip part of what the speaker issaying.

when 为连词，引导时间状语从句。skip 为谓语，采用一般现在时。

三、From a personal point of view, the generation gap between children and parents,misunderstandings caused by lack of communication between people and people's other misunderstanding of listening lead to people complaining that they are not understood. From a listener's point of view,the first point is that people's attention in listening is influenced by external factors, and listeners jump. They have something that they are not interested in. Second, listeners' feelings for the speaker also affect hearing. It is not enough to ensure good communication. We should provide an acceptable explanation for those who complain that they do not understand.
