few很少，修饰可数名词；fewer更少，形容词比较级；little很少，修饰不可数名词；less更少，形容词比较级。 根据than可知，此处用形容词比较级，根据is可知，此空修饰不可数名词。故选D。
2. 句意：他们说，信息的大部分意义来自于理解说话人如何使用音调和肢体语言等东西。
understand懂得，动词原形；understanding动名词；understood过去式；to understand不定式。from介词，后接动名词作宾语。故选B。
3. 句意：肢体语言包括像说话者面部表情、说话者使用的手势和说话者的身体语言这样的事。

7. 句意：在美国竖大拇指的手势意思是“好棒”。
Make使；To make不定式；Making动名词；Makes第三人称单数形式。根据“means”可知，此空是动名词作主语。故选C。

11. 句意：例如，在世界各地，大大的微笑被理解为友谊或善意的象征。

the定冠词，表特指；a不定冠词，表泛指，用在辅音音素前；an不定冠词，表泛指，用在元音音素前；/零冠词。此处表泛指，open以元音音素开头，用an修饰。故选C。
13. 句意：肢体语言专家指出一件重要的事。
point out指出；point at指向；point to指向；point in有意义。根据“one important thing”可知，此处指“指出”一件事。故选A。
14. 句意：使用肢体语言的时间和地点与一个人的肢体语言有很大的关系。
lots of很多；lot of错误形式；a lot of很多；a lot非常。此空修饰动词，用a lot。故选D。
15. 句意：如果一个人度过了糟糕的一天，或者一个会议在一个拥挤的地方举行，那么这个人使用的肢体语言可能与在其他情况下非常不同。

*When they are hungry, they move their right hands back and forth in front of their stomachs. (胃)
*When they mean “Let’s eat”, they put their right hands and move them up and down in front of their mouths.
*When they have had enough, they part their thumbs (拇指) and first fingers, and move their hands from their chests (胸) to chins (下巴).

Why Should We Learn Body Language
In English classes, we spend a large amount of time studying grammar and learning new words. We work hard to improve our reading and listening skills. Few of us, however, pay enough attention to body language. So body language is not important, is it?
The answer is, “Yes!” As the old saying goes, “Actions speak louder than words.” Sometimes, we can communicate things even without a single word. For example, shrug our shoulders (耸肩), and, without a word, we’ve just said, “I don’t know.”
Body language can help us stress what we are saying. It can help us express our true, inner feelings. Moreover, body language can help us find out if someone is lying. Often, people who are lying do not make eye contact (接触). They may turn away or raise their shoulders because they are uncomfortable with the conversation.
In job interviews, the interviewers can sometimes judge the interviewee before he or she speaks. Body language is important in our personal lives, too. It can show if you really care about your friends. Leaning forward into the conversation, for example, means you are interested in what is being said. Listening without making eye contact means you are not paying attention but are waiting for your turn to speak.
Scientists have been studying body language for a long time. They say more than 70 percent of our messages are delivered (递送)through body language. Sometimes, body language is more accurate (精准的) than the words we use.
So it is very important for us to learn body language. By understanding body language, we are less likely to be misunderstood. We will find it easier to get a job. We will also have lasting friendships.
36. According to the first paragraph, in English classes, people do all of the following EXCEPT ________.
A. studying grammar B. learning new words
C. improving listening skills D. practicing using body language
37. According to the passage, in which of the following pictures is the woman saying, “I don’t know.”?
A. B. C. D.
38. According to the passage, people who are lying may ________.
A. learn forward B. make eye contact
C. raise their shoulders D. shrug their shoulders
39. According to the author, body language can help us ________.
① get a job ② lie without anyone knowing
③ prevent misunderstandings ④ improve our English reading skills
A. ①③ B. ②④ C. ①④ D. ②③
40. By writing this passage, the writer mainly wanted to ________.
A. teach readers to understand body language
B. tell readers it is important to learn body language
C. show readers how to find out if someone is lying
D. help readers improve their English reading and listening skills

D
We are always using body language in our daily lives. When we have a conversation with someone, we may use more body language than words. However, the same body language may mean different things in different countries. That’s why people sometimes cannot understand each other.
Pointing to (指) one part of the body can have different meanings in different cultures. For example, in the USA people point to their heads when they think someone is clever. However, in Europe it means “He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head.” In our Chinese culture, nodding our heads up and down means “yes” and shaking our heads from side to side means “no”. However, in some parts of India, Greece and Turkey, they mean just the opposite.
In England or the USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb（拇指） and the second finger, it means “Everything is all right”. However, if we do this in France or Belgium, it means “You are worth zero”. In Greece or Turkey, we should not make this gesture. Or we are thought to be very rude（粗鲁的）.
The meaning of gestures can also change over time. In the 1960s, the “V” sign meant “peace”. However, during World War II, it meant “victory”. In Greece, it is an insulting sign. It will be very rude of you to make this gesture in front of a woman.
Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning throughout the world, such as smiling and crying.
41. What can we know from the first paragraph?
A. In different countries the same body language may have different meanings.
B. In different countries people use the same body language.

A. Somebody is smart. B. Somebody is hard to get along with.
C. Somebody is foolish. D. Somebody is not healthy.
43. What will Americans do when they try to say “Everything goes well”?
A. Point to their heads.
B. Raise their hands and make a circle.
C. Nod their heads up and down.
D. Shake their heads from side to side.

Make使；To make不定式；Making动名词；Makes第三人称单数形式。根据“means”可知，此空是动名词作主语。故选C。

People communicate (沟通) in many different ways. The most common way is by talking with others. Besides talking, we can also use body language. When we use body language, we need to use body to show what we mean. Sign language is a kind of body language. Let’s see more about it.
Sign language is popular among dumb people who are unable to speak or don’t want to speak. If you want to communicate with a foreigner, but you can’t speak his language and he can’t speak Chinese, what can you do? Maybe you can communicate by making signs. Now let’s learn some signs Indians often use.
*When they are hungry, they move their right hands back and forth in front of their stomachs. (胃)
*When they mean “Let’s eat”, they put their right hands and move them up and down in front of their mouths.
*When they have had enough, they part their thumbs (拇指) and first fingers, and move their hands from their chests (胸) to chins (下巴).
*If they have a stomachache, they put both hands on their stomachs, and move them back and forth.

27. 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Sign language is popular among dumb people who are unable to speak or don’t want to speak.”可知，手语很受不会说话或不想说话的聋哑人的欢迎。故“dumb”与“不会说话”意义相关，即“哑的”。故选B。
28. 细节理解题。根据第三段“When they are hungry, they move their right hands back and forth in front of their stomachs.”可知，当他们饿了，他们的右手来回在肚子前移动。故选C。

Why Should We Learn Body Language
In English classes, we spend a large amount of time studying grammar and learning new words. We work hard to improve our reading and listening skills. Few of us, however, pay enough attention to body language. So body language is not important, is it?
The answer is, “Yes!” As the old saying goes, “Actions speak louder than words.” Sometimes, we can communicate things even without a single word. For example, shrug our shoulders (耸肩), and, without a word, we’ve just said, “I don’t know.”
Body language can help us stress what we are saying. It can help us express our true, inner feelings. Moreover, body language can help us find out if someone is lying. Often, people who are lying do not make eye contact (接触). They may turn away or raise their shoulders because they are uncomfortable with the conversation.
In job interviews, the interviewers can sometimes judge the interviewee before he or she speaks. Body language is important in our personal lives, too. It can show if you really care about your friends. Leaning forward into the conversation, for example, means you are interested in what is being said. Listening without making eye contact means you are not paying attention but are waiting for your turn to speak.
Scientists have been studying body language for a long time. They say more than 70 percent of our messages are delivered (递送)through body language. Sometimes, body language is more accurate (精准的) than the words we use.
So it is very important for us to learn body language. By understanding body language, we are less likely to be misunderstood. We will find it easier to get a job. We will also have lasting friendships.
36. According to the first paragraph, in English classes, people do all of the following EXCEPT ________.
A. studying grammar B. learning new words

A. ①③ B. ②④ C. ①④ D. ②③

We are always using body language in our daily lives. When we have a conversation with someone, we may use more body language than words. However, the same body language may mean different things in different countries. That’s why people sometimes cannot understand each other.
Pointing to (指) one part of the body can have different meanings in different cultures. For example, in the USA people point to their heads when they think someone is clever. However, in Europe it means “He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head.” In our Chinese culture, nodding our heads up and down means “yes” and shaking our heads from side to side means “no”. However, in some parts of India, Greece and Turkey, they mean just the opposite.
In England or the USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb（拇指） and the second finger, it means “Everything is all right”. However, if we do this in France or Belgium, it means “You are worth zero”. In Greece or Turkey, we should not make this gesture. Or we are thought to be very rude（粗鲁的）.
The meaning of gestures can also change over time. In the 1960s, the “V” sign meant “peace”. However, during World War II, it meant “victory”. In Greece, it is an insulting sign. It will be very rude of you to make this gesture in front of a woman.
Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning throughout the world, such as smiling and crying.
41. What can we know from the first paragraph?
A. In different countries the same body language may have different meanings.
B. In different countries people use the same body language.

A. Somebody is smart. B. Somebody is hard to get along with.
C. Somebody is foolish. D. Somebody is not healthy.
43. What will Americans do when they try to say “Everything goes well”?
A. Point to their heads.
B. Raise their hands and make a circle.
C. Nod their heads up and down.
D. Shake their heads from side to side.

【答案】BEDAC
【解析】本文介绍了学习和研究肢体语言的重要性。肢体语言是生活中一种常见的表达方式，它在人们的日常交流中非常重要。
46. 根据“So body language is not important, is it?”可知，此处引出与肢体语言有关的话题，选项B“然而，我们中很少有人足够重视身体语言”符合语境。故选B。
47. 根据“For example, shrug your shoulders(耸肩), and, without a word, we’ve just said, ‘I don’t know.’ ”可知，下文举了个例子：我们不说话，光通过耸肩这一身体语言就可以表达“我不知道”的意思。则横线处与“不说话”有关，选项E“有时，我们可以不说一句话就能交流。”符合语境，故选E。
48. 根据“It can help us express our true feelings.”可知，肢体语言可以帮助我们表达真实的感情，且根据后文“Often, people who are lying do not make eye contact.”可知，撒谎的人通常是没有眼神交流的。则横线处内容跟“撒谎”相关，D项“另外，肢体语言可以帮助我们弄清是否有人在撒谎。”符合语境。故选D。
49. 根据“It can show if you really care about your friends.”可知，肢体语言可以体现你是否真的关心朋友，而关心朋友是个人生活中的事，A项“肢体语言在我们个人生活中也很重要。”符合题意。故选A。
50. 根据横线后“They say more than seventy percent of our messages are delivered through body language. Sometimes, body language is more accurate than the words we use.”可知，这里是科学家研究肢体语言后得出的结论，即“我们百分之七十的信息是通过肢体语言传送的。有时候肢体语言比我们使用的语言更精确”。故C项“科学家研究肢体语言已经很长时间了”符合题意。故选C。
