Ⅳ. 阅读理解

A

“When studying foreign languages, don’t forget about body

language,” Anne Merritt said.

Something as simple as a gesture can show friendliness in one

culture, embarrassment in another, impatience in the third. Even silence

means different things in different places. If you want to avoid making

some mistakes when travelling abroad, you should pay attention to the

following.

Touch

Britain, along with many countries in northern Europe and the Far

East, has a non-contact(不接触的) culture. In those countries, there is

very little physical contact in people’s daily talks. Even touching

someone’s arm by accident is the reason for an apology. However, in the

high-contact cultures of the Middle East, Latin America, and southern

Europe, the physical touch is a big part of daily life.

What’s more, there are different standards for the touch. In much of

the Arab world, men hold hands and kiss each other in greeting, but

would never do the same with a woman. In Thailand and Laos, it is a

taboo(禁忌) to touch anyone’s head, even children’s. In South Korea,

elders can touch younger people with force when trying to get through a

crowd, but younger people can’t do the same.

Eye contact

In most Western countries, frequent eye contact is a sign of

confidence and attentiveness(专注). We may think that a conversation

partner who looks away is either not listening to us or lying. Of course,

this is not the standard around the world.

In many Asian, African, and Latin American countries, the unbroken

eye contact would be considered impolite and rude. These cultures

consider avoiding eye contact a sign of respect for bosses and elders. In

these parts of the world, children won’t look at an adult who is speaking

to them, and nor will employees look at their bosses.

1. Which of the following about the British people is TRUE when they

are talking?

A. They avoid eye contact.

B. They often touch the others’ arms.

C. They avoid physical contact.

D. They favour a close physical touch.

解析:细节理解题。根据Touch部分第一段中“Britain, along with

many countries ... In those countries, there is very little

physical contact in people’s daily talks.”可知,在英国,人们交谈时通常避免身体接触。

答案:C

2. How do people in southern Europe like the physical touch?

A. Unnecessary. B. Impolite.

C. Dangerous. D. Common.

解析:细节理解题。根据Touch部分第一段中“However, in the

high-contact cultures ...and southern Europe, the physical

touch is a big part of daily life.”可知,在欧洲南部,身体接触很常见。

答案:D

3. What should we avoid doing in Thailand?

A. Touching a kid’s head.

B. Touching someone’s arm.

C. Shaking hands with children.

D. Patting old people on the back.

解析:细节理解题。根据Touch部分第二段中“In Thailand and Laos,

it is a taboo to touch anyone’s head, even children’s.”可知,在泰国和老挝,我们要避免触摸任何人的头,即使是孩子的头也不行。

答案:A

4. What does this text mainly tell us?

A. How to have a good time abroad.

B. The importance of body language.

C. How to communicate with foreigners.

D. An introduction to some body language.

解析:主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了在不同国家的日常交流过程中应该注意的一些肢体语言,故选D。

答案:D

B

There is one language that is used in every country in the world. The

people who use it are young and old, short and tall, thin and fat. It is

everybody’s second language. It is easy to understand, although you can’t

hear it. It is sign language.

When you wave to a friend who is across the street, you are using

sign language. When you nod to someone, you are saying, “I want to be

friendly.” But you are not using speech; you are using sign language.

When you raise your hand in class, you are saying, “Please ask me. I

think I know the correct answer.”

Babies who can’t talk can point at things. They are using sign

language. A policeman who wants to stop traffic holds up his hand. He is

using sign language.

Many years ago, a French priest, Charles Michel de L’Epee, became

interested in education for deaf people. He invented a finger alphabet,

which is still in use today. People can make signs for letters and spell

words with their hands, and deaf people can read and understand them.

Soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries. There are many

universities for the deaf in the US now.

The actors in the Theatre of Deaf don’t spell every word. Sometimes

they use hand signs. When they put two hands together, it means

sandwiches. They can make a roof with their hands when they want to

show a house. One finger in front of an actor’s mouth can mean “be

quiet”. You can talk to people who are behind windows that are closed.

And when you go swimming with your friends, you can have

conversations underwater.

5. What can we learn about sign language from para-graph 1?

A. It is a language used in a few countries.

B. It is a way to express ideas without words.

C. It is only used by the deaf.

D. It can be easily heard.

解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中“It is easy to under-stand,

although you can’t hear it. It is sign language.”可推知,手语是不借助语言表达想法的一种方式。

答案:B

6. What will you do if you want to express “I am very friendly.”?

A. Raise your hand. B. Put one hand onto the other.

C. Nod to the person. D. Make a roof with your hands.

解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中“When you nod to someone, you are

saying, ‘I want to be friendly.’”可知答案。

答案:C

7. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Hand signs are more important than finger signs.

B. There is only one university for the deaf in the US.

C. Charles Michel de L’Epee invented sign language.

D. Babies can communicate by using sign language.

解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中“Babies who can’t talk can point

at things. They are using sign language.”可知答案。

8. What is the passage mainly about?

A. An introduction to sign language.

B. The importance of sign language.

Four Body Language Tips for Success

Have you ever been drawn to someone who looks confident and

successful at work? There’s something about them that you can’t easily

find. 9 Here are four specific techniques to set up for ongoing

success, especially in the workplace.

• 10 You’ve heard how dogs pick up on sounds that the human

ear can’t hear. Well, it turns out that we pick up on certain tone too,

human to human. Simply speaking, lower, richer tones are more pleasing

to us than higher, thinner ones.

•Take on a powerful pose. Research by social psychologist Amy

Cuddy shows that standing or sitting in a certain way causes immediate

changes in your body chemistry. 11 Besides, it can influence how

others respond to you.

•Make eye contact, but not too much. There is such a thing as too

much eye contact. You don’t want to be rude, but you also want to look

like you care. Always be sure to use more eye contact when you are

listening than when you are speaking.

•Use your hands to improve speech. If you want to get your point

across more effectively, try using some hand gestures while you speak.

12 Speech-associated gestures have been thought to help listeners

stay focused and attentive.

Now you can be the person appearing more successful in and out of

the boardroom. Remember—it’s not always what you say verbally that

activates your listeners. 13

A. Lower tones matter.

B. Mind your tone of voice.

C. This can make you appear more confident.

D. It is time for your body to do some of the talking.

E. Using hand gestures is always a great way to appeal to your listeners.

F. Body language is an important factor in making a strong first

impression.

G. Not only will they make yourself understood, they also keep the

listeners engaged.

9. 解析:根据文章标题Four Body Language Tips for Success可知,本文是说明肢体语言的重要性的,故选F,起到提示下文的作用。

答案:F

10. 解析:根据下文“Simply speaking, lower, richer tones are

more pleasing to us than higher, thinner ones.”可知,该段主要说明语调的高低,故选B项“注意你的语调”。

答案:B

11. 解析:根据空后的“Besides, it can influence how others

respond to you.”可知,空格处也是说明好的坐姿和站姿的正面影响,故选C。

答案:C

12. 解析:根据空格前的“while you speak”和空格后的“listeners”可知选G。

答案:G

13. 解析:根据上句“... it’s not always what you say verbally that

activates your listeners.”可知,语言不总是能吸引听众,有时应该借助肢体语言,故选D。

答案:D

Many teenagers employ phones as a tool of interaction. They

phones.
