One of the most important means of non-verbal communication is eye contact. Eye contact, which simply means one person looking directly at another person's eyes, seems to have strong implications(含意)in almost every culture, although these implications change vastly across the globe!What does eye contact mean in the United States? Here, if you have good eye contact with a person, it generally shows that you are interested in the person you are looking at and in what that person is saying. If you look down or away from a person rather than meeting his or her gaze(凝视)，you are considered to be impatient or uninterested in him or her. Also, if you avoid making eye contact with a person, you may be thought to lack self-confidence. However, eye contact is much less common and considered less appropriate in many other cultures than it is considered in the United States. In Japan, eye contact equals aggression. If you look someone in the eye, they look away. Direct eye contact is considered rude or aggressive. It's all right to make brief eye contact, but during most time of the conversation you should look somewhere else. As you can see, it is vital to know what eye contact communicates before you visit a new place.  Before traveling, you could go to your local public library or a bookstore and look through a book about the culture of the country you plan to visit. Learn how to use eye contact and other body language wisely so that you are considered polite, and so that you can better connect with people in a culture that is foreign to you!【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了不同的眼神和肢体语言在不同文化中有不同含义，作者建议人们在旅行前了解即将去的国家的文化。1.What is stressed in the first paragraph?A.

Maybe the image of Shaolin monks striking fierce poses with a serious look in their eyes, or popular children’s movies like Kung Fu Panda. But do they really portray the meaning of kung fu?Recently, Laurence J. Brahm, a documentary filmmaker from the United States, explored this question in Searching for Kung Fu. In the movie, Brahm started a kung fu pilgrimage(朝圣之旅), travelling to cities in China and the US in search of the origin and value of kung fu. Brahm himself is a kung fu lover who has been devoted to the practice for more than 40 years. For him, pursuing this craft was more than a pastime. Now, Kung fu has become a daily routine for him and also the way he greets the day.“Martial arts can help us connect our body, connect our neural system, connect our blood flow, and also help connect us into our environment to increase our awareness. Martial arts is moving meditation (冥想).” Brahm said.Still others find additional meanings in the practice. “Chinese kung fu is full of Chinese philosophies and core values,” Hong Kong actor Bruce Leung told Xinhua. “Nonviolence is one of these values, which is shown both in the name and the practice. Wu, consists of two characters-ge, meaning “dagger-ax”, and zhi, meaning “to stop”. So, the meaning of kung fu in Chinese is the art of stopping fighting, the art of nonviolence.”Brahm’s appreciation of kung fu is clear. He sees it as “a mirror of Chinese culture”. “Whydoes China want to be in harmony with other nations? It’s part of the psychology of the Chinese people. It’s also national psychology.” Brahm told Xinhua.Brahm also believes that today’s world urgently needs to restart equal exchanges between countries without stereotypes, and that culture and sports, such as kung fu, can serve as a great channel and platform.【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。作者通过探索功夫来了解中国的价值观。4.What did Laurence J.

My sister and I didn’t play video games. We didn’t have cable TV. Summers were filled with swimming in the pond and picking wild blackberries for Grandma to make a pie. Autumn was filled with corn mazes and crunching through leaves in the woods. And winter was all about building igloos near the frozen lake.My high school had zero diversity. Most people here could visit their entire extended family within 30 miles’ drive. And many were perfectly happy with the prospect of staying in rural northeast Ohio forever.It was in high school that I began to realize that I wanted something beyond what I knew inside my Midwest bubble. I loved reading and learning about new places, so I spent the rest of my high school career saving up so that I could go on a Lord of the Rings–themed tour of New Zealand when I graduated.After that initial trip to New Zealand, I was fully infected with the travel bug. I joined my college marching band simply because it would mean international performance tours every two years. And I began to realize that I couldn’t imagine my life without travel in it.I got a great education from both my little rural high school and my little rural Ohio college. But, the more I traveled, the more acutely aware I became of the fact that traveling made up for my education in a way that textbooks and PowerPoint presentations in lecture halls just simply could not.So, is travel the best education? Well, I don’t know if it deserves the superlative of the “best”. But travel is definitely really valuable and a necessary part of becoming a global citizen of the world.8.Which word best describes the author’s childhood?A. Lonely.    B. Carefree.   C.

Things are changing, however. Is this the end of a great British tradition?For thousands of years, a very important building in any British village has been the pub. In fact, until a place has a pub, it is not really considered a community worthy of a name. Traditionally, the pub is at the heart of any village or town, since it is where people gather to socialize and exchange news. It is an institution at the heart of British society. After all, the word “pub” is actually short for “public house”.As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites that tourists visit. Many British pubs have names referring to monarchs, such as The King’s Head or The Queen Victoria, but of course this doesn’t mean they are only for kings and queens. Pubs have always welcomed people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub boss can always find a warm place for customers by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.That’s how it used to be, but there are worrying signs that things are beginning to change. Economic downturns, governmental austerity measures and cultural changes are causing many pubs to go out of business. People do not have a lot of spare money to spend on beer. On top of that, in 2007 smoking was banned in all public indoor spaces, including pubs, which may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs since then. This decline is happening despite the fact that pubs are now allowed by law to stay open after 11p.m..In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to diversify to attract new customers. And with various “save the pub” campaigns, there are signs that people are gathering around pubs to support this great British institution with pride.【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国的酒吧文化，介绍了英国酒吧兴起的原因，酒吧的特色，酒吧如今面临的困境以及人们为拯救酒吧所付出的一些努力。12. Why are British pubs often old?A. Because the British want to attract tourists.B. Because the birth of a community often results from a pub in it.C. Because they are where people socialize and exchange news.D. Because they follow in the tradition of British kings and queens.【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中“In fact, until a place has a pub, it is not really considered a community worthy of a name. Traditionally, the pub is at the heart of any village or town, since it is where people gather to socialize and exchange news. It is an institution at the heart of British society. After all, the word “pub” is actually short for “public house”.(事实上，直到一个地方有了酒吧，它才被认为是一个名副其实的社区。传统上，小酒吧位于任何村庄或城镇的中心，因为人们聚集在这里进行社交和交流新闻。它是英国社会核心的一种机构。毕竟，“pub”这个词实际上是“public house”的缩写)”以及第三段中“As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved.(因此，英国的酒吧往往历史悠久，保存完好)”可知，英国酒吧总是很老，是因为一个社区的诞生往往源于其中的酒吧。故选B。13. What does the underlined word “monarchs” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Emperors.   B. Bosses.   C. Special tourists.  D. Ordinary people.【答案】A【解析】词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“such as The King’s Head or The Queen Victoria, but of course this doesn’t mean they are only for kings and queens”可知，比如“国王头”或“维多利亚女王”，但当然这并不意味着只有国王和女王才能光顾酒吧，这说明很多英国酒吧的名字都与君主有关，故画线词意思为“君主”。A. Emperors.君主；B. Bosses.老板；C. Special tourists. 特殊的游客；D. Ordinary people.普通人。故选A。14. What causes many pubs to close down?A. Cultural differences.      B. Economic decline.C. Changes in opening hours.     D. Regulations against drinking.【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段中“Economic downturns, governmental austerity measures and cultural changes are causing many pubs to go out of business.(经济衰退、政府紧缩措施和文化变革正导致许多酒吧倒闭)”可知，导致许多酒吧关门的原因是经济衰退。故选B。15. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of British pubs?【答案】D【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段“In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to diversify to attract new customers. And with various “save the pub” campaigns, there are signs that people are gathering around pubs to support this great British institution with pride.(为了挽救他们的生意，酒吧正试图通过多样化来吸引新的顾客。在各种各样的“拯救酒吧”运动中，有迹象表明人们正聚集在酒吧周围，自豪地支持酒吧这一英国机构)”可推知，作者在最后一段中客观陈述了人们为拯救酒吧进行的努力，没有提到个人对英国酒吧未来的看法，即对英国酒吧的未来持客观态度。故选D。二、七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(2021·陕西咸阳中学高三月考)The world is a colorful landscape of different languages, skin colors, and different cultures.

So I attempted to translate the holiday through things they were familiar    2   . I described the roast turkey as something similar    3    Beijing duck. I compared the annual Thanksgiving show to the    4   (year)Spring Festival Gala(联欢会)on Chinese New Year’s Eve. And I    5   (character)the entire celebration as an American version of Winter solstice(冬至)in China. Yet as much as my in-laws nodded and smiled, I recognized that even these explanations were a poor substitute.

The students hold different points of view about that. Some suggest resisting Western holidays due to their strong influence. Some argue that we are supposed to hold some creative activities to celebrate traditional cultures so that we can have fun during Chinese festivals. Still others consider various competitions should be held at times, which provides more chances for the citizens to recite Chinese poems and practice calligraphy.In my view, it is high time that we spared no effort to protect the traditional Chinese cultures. Otherwise we will regret one day.写作(二)阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。(2021·江苏高三二模)Every previous year on Thanksgiving Day I’d woken up early, filled with excitement, unable to wait for the turkey, pumpkin pie with pecans, and my grandma’s famous cheesecake. But I would never forget the lesson that my mother taught me when I was 14 years old. That Thanksgiving, I couldn’t find the magic anymore. For some reason the holiday seemed fake. I suddenly felt like Thanksgiving was a big lie. I saw no reason to celebrate.As my aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandma started to arrive carrying plates of food, baskets of bread, and pitchers of egg nog, I grew more and more angry and frustrated. None of them were really thankful, I realized. The whole thing was a lie!When my mom called for everyone to take their seats for dinner, I left. I ran into the guest room where no one would look, crying. I was defiant(反抗的)because I wanted to be an honest person but 1 was realizing that Thanksgiving was fake. It didn’t feel right to join in the tradition---say something beautiful one by one around the table.My mom, worried that 1 was absent from the table, came to see what was wrong, “No one is really thankful!” I sobbed, “They just pretend for one day because that’s what you’re supposed to do!"My mom sat down next to me and listened wisely. Then she nodded. “You’re right,” she told me, “it’s fake until you find the truth for yourself.” She said Thanksgiving was a time to reflect because we don’t always get a chance to see loved ones and eat a good meal. Then she left. I didn’t listen to her. I was convinced that I could never find joy celebrating again.注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。But I was also starving and I had to eat something. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________At her words, I realized they wanted me to be a part of the tradition. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】But I was also starving and I had to eat something. So after a few minutes I went back to the dining room. And I couldn’t believe what I saw. Waiting for me, with wide smiles, was my entire extended family and a table covered with untouched plates. At first, I was confused. I wondered why no one was digging into their carefully-constructed meals. That’s when I noticed that everyone was looking at me with concern. ‘Andy,’ my aunt said, ‘We can’t eat without you. It’s your turn.’At her words, I realized they wanted me to be a part of the tradition. As usual, we shared what made us all thankful one by one around the table. I didn’t know what to say. But I had to. Everyone had something beautiful to say. Listening, I came to understand what my mom meant about finding the truth. For me, this holiday was a chance to pause and reflect on everything I cared about. That was worth celebrating. And with that, I took a huge and satisfying bite of food.
