W: What do people in Bell Labs do and what is the study about?
M: Well, they do research into development for the communication industry. They once chose a group of ten stars in productivity and effectiveness from 150 engineers, and then compared them with everyone else.
W: What did they find?
M: It turned out there was no difference in IQ, no difference in academic qualifications, no difference in years on the job. The only difference was emotional intelligence. The stars were people who knew how to get along, who knew how to motivate themselves.
W: People with high EQ have higher chances to succeed in work and life.
M: Yes. The study finds that when the stars came across a technical problem and needed to turn to someone else for an answer, they’d e-mail and get an answer right away, because they built up a network of people before they needed them. The other people might wait up to two weeks for an answer.
W: That makes sense. They know how to maintain good interpersonal relationship.

第二部分　阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)
第一节　(共15小题；每小题2.5分，共37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
The comments on each film outlined below are taken from articles by David Robinson. We strongly recommend you read the full articles by following our links, since they provide many more insights on Chaplin’s life and work.
A Woman of Paris (1923)
A Woman of Paris was a courageous step in the career of Charles Chaplin. After seventy films in which he himself had appeared in every scene, he now directed a picture in which he merely walked on for a few seconds as an unbilled and unrecognisable extra – a porter at a railroad station. Until this time, every film had been a comedy. A Woman of Paris was a romantic drama. This was not a sudden impulse. For a long time Chaplin had wanted to try his hand at directing a serious film.
The Gold Rush (1925)
Chaplin generally strove to separate his work from his private life; but in this case the two became inextricably and painfully mixed. Searching for a new leading lady, he rediscovered Lillita MacMurray, whom he had employed, as a pretty 12-year-old, in The Kid. Still not yet sixteen, Lillita was put under contract and re-named Lita Grey.
Chaplin quickly embarked on a clandestine affair with her; and when the film was six months into shooting, Lita discovered she was pregnant. Chaplin found himself forced into a marriage which brought misery to both partners, though it produced two sons, Charles Jr and Sydney Chaplin.
The Circus (1928)
The Circus won Charles Chaplin his first Academy Award – it was still not yet called the ‘Oscar’ – he was given it at the first presentations ceremony, in 1929. But as late as 1964, it seemed, this was a film he preferred to forget. The reason was not the film itself, but the deeply fraught circumstances surrounding its making.
Chaplin was in the throes of the break-up of his marriage with Lita Grey; and production of The Circus coincided with one of the most unseemly and sensational divorces of twenties Hollywood, as Lita’s lawyers sought every means to ruin Chaplin’s career by smearing his reputation. As if his domestic troubles were not enough, the film seemed fated to catastrophe of every kind.
In the late 1960s, after the years spent trying to forget it, Chaplin returned to The Circus to re-release it with a new musical score of his own composition. It seemed to symbolize his reconciliation to the film which cost him so much stress.
City Lights (1931)
City Lights proved to be the hardest and longest undertaking of Chaplin’s career. By the time it was completed he had spent two years and eight months on the work, with almost 190 days of actual shooting. The marvel is that the finished film betrays nothing of this effort and anxiety.
Even before he began City Lights, the sound film was firmly established. This new revolution was a bigger challenge to Chaplin than to other silent stars. His Tramp character was universal. His mime was understood in every part of the world. But if the Tramp now began to speak in English, that world-wide audience would instantly shrink.
Chaplin boldly solved the problem by ignoring speech, and making City Lights in the way he had always worked before, as a silent film. However he astounded the press and the public by composing the entire score for City Lights.
The premieres were among the most brilliant the cinema had ever seen. In Los Angeles, Chaplin’s guest was Albert Einstein; while in London Bernard Shaw sat beside him. City Lights was a critical triumph. All Chaplin’s struggles and anxieties, it seemed, were compensated by the film which still appears as the zenith of his achievement and reputation.
21. From which movie did Chaplin fulfill his wish that he could direct a serious film?
A. The Gold Rush B. The Circus
C. A Woman of Paris D. City Lights
22. In Chaplin’s art life, what was the big challenge to him?
A. His private life B. The establishment of sound film
C. His dying talent for art D. The lack in movie investment
23. What was special about City Lights?
A. The film compensated all Chaplin’s struggles and anxieties.
B. It beat all sound film at that time out of expectation.
C. The movie saw all the most brilliant in the cinema.
D. It won Charles Chaplin his first Academy Award.

23. 细节理解题。根据“City Lights (1931)”部分的“His Tramp character was universal. His mime was understood in every part of the world.(他的流浪汉形象面向全世界，他的哑剧全世界任何一个地方的人都懂)”可知，卓别林的City Lights 的特别之处是出乎意料地通过哑剧击败了有声电影，故选B 项。
B
Words are powerful: they have the ability to lift up the lowest of the low or tear down the highest of the high. But a strong argument could be made that our body language is even more influential. The most effective communication occurs when the importance of body language in teaching is acknowledged. When these nonverbal signals are working together with our words, it creates communication synergy.
It has been suggested that two-thirds of our communication is nonverbal. Positive body language in a classroom setting has the ability to motivate, inspire and engage. It can not only give you the confidence you need to teach but can also inform your students that you actually know what you’re talking about. It can even make your students feel safe and confident enough to participate in the lessons more frequently.
Most leadership positions encourage body language that shows power and confidence. Signals include standing tall, gesturing only from the waist up, head straight and forward, and talking while pointing to others, which are obvious ways to exercise control. But when teaching, the nonverbal signals need to show a different type of leader. These signals convey warmth and understanding, reminding your students that you are approachable and there to help them grow. For example, fix your eyes on one student for about 15-30 seconds before changing to another student, which is one of the best ways to keep students’ focus. Nod your head. Give a thumbs up—maybe two! Show them they are on the right path and they will be more confident in continuing down it.
The importance of body language can never be ignored. It’s desirable that you should advocate using body language in teaching and pay attention to the use rule and using skills. You should use right, natural and clear body language. It’s crucial that you create good classroom atmosphere, inspire students’ imagination and grasp students’ mood.
24. Which has a similar meaning as the underlined word “synergy” in Paragraph 1?
A. Energy loss. B. Confusing result.
C. Individual effect. D. Combined power.
25. What do most leadership positions mainly express?
A. Warmth. B. Control.
C. Understanding. D. Encouragement.
26. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph?
A. To explain a theory. B. To make a description.
C. To give suggestions. D. To summarize a debate.
27. What is the text mainly talking about?
A. The importance of teacher’s body language.
B. The effective ways of good communication.
C. The value of teacher-student communication.
D. The prospect of students’ nonverbal learning.
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. A
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了教师肢体语言的重要性。
24. 词句猜测题。根据划线词前半句“When these nonverbal signals are working together with our words, (当这些非语言信号与我们的语言一起工作时)”可知，肢体语言和语言一起工作时，会产生沟通协同作用。由此推知，划线词synergy为“协同作用”之意。故选D。
25. 细节理解题。根据第三段“Most leadership positions encourage body language that shows power and confidence. Signals include standing tall, gesturing only from the waist up, head straight and forward, and talking while pointing to others, which are obvious ways to exercise control. (大多数领导职位都鼓励展示权力和自信的肢体语言。信号包括站得笔直，只做腰部以上的手势，头伸直向前，说话时指着别人，这些都是明显的控制方式)”可知，大多数领导职位主要表现为控制。故选B。
26. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The importance of body language can never be ignored. It’s desirable that you should advocate using body language in teaching and pay attention to the use rule and using skills. You should use right, natural and clear body language. It’s crucial that you create good classroom atmosphere, inspire students’ imagination and grasp students’ mood. (肢体语言的重要性不容忽视。在教学中提倡使用肢体语言，注意使用规则和技巧是可取的。你应该使用正确、自然、清晰的肢体语言。营造良好的课堂氛围，激发学生的想象力，把握学生的情绪至关重要)”可推断，最后一段的目的是给出建议，建议教师在教学中使用肢体语言。故选C。
27. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The most effective communication occurs when the importance of body language in teaching is acknowledged. (当认识到肢体语言在教学中的重要性时，就会产生最有效的沟通)”和最后一段“The importance of body language can never be ignored.(肢体语言的重要性不容忽视)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了教师肢体语言的重要性。故选A。
C
Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.
Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a cup of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries — like the UK or France — people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafés rather than at the office.
Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead, there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realised that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.
Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because the culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.
People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.
28. According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?
A. By sharing different ways of life.
B. By accepting different habits.
C. By recognising different values.
D. By speaking each other’s languages.
29. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Multicultural Environment
B. Cross-cultural Differences
C. How to Understand Each Other
D. How to Build Up a Relationship
30. What will people feel easier to do by eating together at restaurants in some countries?
A. Developing closer relations.
B. Sharing the same culture.
C. Getting to know each other.
D. Keeping each other company.
31. What does the author want to show when mentioning his experience in Thailand?
A. The English prefer to make long speeches.
B. Too many words are of no use.
C. People from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature.
D. Even talk and silence can be culturally different.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. D
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是不同国家之间的文化差异。
28. 细节理解题。根据尾段中的“People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.(来自世界不同地区的人有不同的价值观，有时这些价值观是相互对立的。然而，如果我们能更好地理解他们，一个多元文化的环境将为我们提供一个相互学习的好机会。)”可知，来自世界不同地区的人们有着不同的价值观，如果能更好地理解这些价值，我们能在多元文化中相互学习，由此可知，对不同价值观的理解有助于不同文化背景的人们的彼此理解。故选C项。
29. 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.(遇到来自不同文化背景的人可能会很困难。从一开始，人们就可能发出错误的信号。或者他们可能不注意另一个试图发展关系的人发出的信号。)”可知，来自不同文化背景的人理解上会出现一些问题，结合下文中作者列举的不同文化差异的人们之间在理解上出现的一些问题以及尾段中的“However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.(然而，如果我们能更好地理解他们，一个多元文化的环境将为我们提供一个相互学习的好机会。)”可知，作者认为如果来自于不同文化背景的人能够理解他们之间的文化价值，人们之间能够得到更好地理解，由此可知，“跨文化差异”可以涵盖文章内容，概括文章的主题。故选B项。
30. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In many European countries—like the UK or France—people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafés rather than at the office.(在许多欧洲国家，比如英国或法国，人们发现在餐馆或咖啡馆比在办公室更容易建立持久的工作关系。)”可知，在英国或者发过这样的欧洲国家，人们觉得在餐馆或咖啡厅建立亲密的工作关系更容易。故选A项。
31. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures.(在某些文化中，说话和沉默也可能不同。)”可知，作者认为说话与沉默也存在着一些理解上的差异，进而列举自己的在泰国的经历，由此可知，作者列举在泰国的例子是为了说明说话与沉默存在着一定的理解上的差异。故选D项。
D
Do Animals Communicate?
When we think of communication, we normally think of using words — talking face to face, writing messages and so on. But in fact we communicate far more in other ways. Our eyes and facial expressions usually tell the truth even when our words do not.
Then there are gestures, often unconscious: raising the eyebrows, rubbing the nose, raising the shoulders, tapping the fingers, nodding and shaking the head. There is also the even more subtle (微妙的) body language of posture: Are you sitting or standing with arms or legs crossed? Is that person standing with hands in pockets, held in front of the body or hidden behind? Even the way we dress and the colors we wear communicate things to others.
So, do animals communicate? Not in words, although a parrot might be trained to repeat words and phrases which it doesn’t understand. But, as we have learnt, there is more to communicate than words.
Take dogs for example. They show their teeth to warn, shake their tails to welcome, and stand firm with hair upright to fight. These signals are surely the equals of the human body language of facial expressions, gestures and posture.
Color can be an important means of communication for animals. Many birds and fishes change color, for example, to attract partners during the mating (交配) season. And mating itself is commonly done after a special dance which both partners take part in.
Here, again, there are striking similarities to young men and women who dress up to meet partners at parties, where the music is often too loud for word communication. Communication there takes place through appearance and movement.
The most carefully planned dances in the animal kingdom are those that bees use to communicate. With body movements alone they can tell other bees the direction and distance of a newly discovered food.
All these examples may suggest instinctive (本能的) rather than intelligent communication. But human body language is largely instinctive, too. And, in many ways, body language says far more than intelligent word communication ever can.
32. Nodding and shaking the head is a ________.
A. gesture B. facial expression C. posture D. language
33. Dogs’ shaking their tails means ________.
A. warning B. welcoming C. fighting D. laughing
34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. Color is not a way of communication for animals.
B. Many birds and fishes change color to show that they don’t want to mate.
C. A special dance often takes place before mating.
D. Word communication is better at parties where music is so loud.
35. Bees use body movements to ________.
A. attract partners to communicate B. communicate where they have been
C. tell other bees where to go and how far it is D. show their victory
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. C
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了动物通过肢体语言进行交流，并举例进行说明。
32. 细节理解题。根据第二段“Then there are gestures, often unconscious: raising the eyebrows, rubbing the nose, raising the shoulders, tapping the fingers, nodding and shaking the head.(还有一些姿态，通常是无意识的：扬起眉毛、揉鼻子、耸肩、轻敲手指、点头和摇头)”可知，点头和摇头是一种姿态。故选A。
33. 细节理解题。根据第四段“Take dogs for example. They show their teeth to warn, shake their tails to welcome, and stand firm with hair upright to fight.(以狗为例。它们露出牙齿表示警告，摇尾巴表示欢迎，竖起毛发表示战斗)”可知，狗摇尾巴表示欢迎。故选B。
34. 细节理解题。根据倒数第四段“And mating itself is commonly done after a special dance which both partners take part in.(交配本身通常是在双方都参加的特殊舞蹈之后进行的)”可知，C选项“一种特殊的舞蹈通常在交配前进行”正确。故选C。
35. 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“With body movements alone they can tell other bees the direction and distance of a newly discovered food.(仅凭身体动作，它们就能告诉其他蜜蜂新发现食物的方向和距离)”可知，蜜蜂用身体动作告诉其他蜜蜂要去哪里，要走多远。故选C。
第二节　(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Cultures have nonverbal forms of communication, but there are still rules. Hand gestures add emphasis. Voice levels add to our communication. 36
Body language is not the same everywhere. The same body postures and gestures can have different meanings in different cultures. For example, holding your hand out, fingers together, and palm (手掌) facing outward means stop in North America. 37
Ojigi, or Japanese bowing, is used as a way to say hello, a way to say sorry, and a way to show respect. 38 Fifteen degrees is the common greeting bow for those you already know or who are on an equal social level. The highest respect bow is forty-five degrees and is used when you say sorry.
Other forms of nonverbal communication include clothing, hairstyles, and even how close we stand to one another. Proxemics is the study of the cultural use of space. 39 The use of color in one's physical space is an example of proxemics of physical territory. A health spa (休闲健身中心) is more likely to use cool greens and blues to create a relaxing environment. 40 This differs depending on the other person and the situation. For example, in the United States public space is between twelve to twenty-five feet. Intimate (亲密的) space is less than a foot. We may feel uncomfortable if any of these distances are reduced without an invitation.
A. In Greece, the same gesture is highly rude.
B. Personal space is between two and four feet.
C. Even silence can be a useful form of communication.
D. The degree of the bow shows the amount of respect.
E. This can be both someone’s personal and physical territory.
F. It is not impolite to look the other person in the eye while bowing in Europe.
G. Personal territory refers to the space we keep between others and ourselves.
【答案】36. C 37. A 38. D 39. E 40. G
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了非言语交际。
36. 前文“Hand gestures add emphasis. Voice levels add to our communication.(手势增加了重点。音量增加了我们的交流。)”分别讲述了手势和音量在交流中的作用，这里与前面并列，应讲述其他非语言交际的方面，C项“即使是沉默也是一种有用的沟通方式。”符合题意，讲述了沉默这种沟通的方式。故选C。
37. 前文“The same body postures and gestures can have different meanings in different cultures. For example, holding your hand out, fingers together, and palm(手掌) facing outward means stop in North America. (相同的身体姿势和手势在不同的文化中可能有不同的含义。例如，伸出你的手，手指并拢，手掌朝外在北美意味着停止。)”讲述了相同身体语言在不同文化中有不同的含义，并列举了在北美意味着停止的手势，这里应是描述该手势在其他文化中的含义，A项“在希腊，同样的手势是非常粗鲁的。”符合题意。故选A。
38. 前文“Ojigi, or Japanese bowing, is used as a way to say hello, a way to say sorry, and a way to show respect.(Ojigi，或日式鞠躬，被用作打招呼、道歉和表示尊重的一种方式。)”讲述了日式鞠躬这种姿势，后文“Fifteen degrees is the common greeting bow for those you already know or who are on an equal social level. The highest respect bow is forty-five degrees and is used when you say sorry.(对于那些你已经认识或处于同等社会水平的人来说，15度是常见的问候鞠躬。最高的敬礼鞠躬是45度，当你说对不起时使用。)”讲述了不同情况下鞠躬的幅度不同，空处应承上启下，D项“鞠躬的程度显示了对你的尊重。”符合题意。故选D。
39. 前文“Proxemics is the study of the cultural use of space.(空间关系学是对空间文化利用的研究。)”讲述了空间关系学，E项“这既可以是某人的人际空间，也可以是其物理空间。”中的This指代上文中的Proxemics，指出空间关系学的研究范畴。故选E。
40. 上文中谈到空间关系学涵盖physical territory（物理空间）和personal territory（人际空间）两个方面。之后作者对physical territory进行了解释并举例说明。结合下文中的“Intimate(亲密的) space is less than a foot. We may feel uncomfortable if any of these distances are reduced without an invitation.(亲密空间不足一英尺。如果在没有邀请的情况下缩短这些距离，我们可能会感到不舒服。)”可知，本空应该是对personal territory进行解释，故G项“人际空间是指我们在他人和自己之间保持的空间。”符合语境。下文中的This指代G项中的Personal territory。故选G。

I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight (货物) yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head. Now I am thirty-two. I can still remember the brightness of sunshine. It would be 41 to see again, but a 42 can do strange things to people. I don’t mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes.

I am not talking about simply the kind of 47 that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone. That is part of it.

It took me years to discover and 49 this confidence. It had to start with the simplest things. Once a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt. “I can’t use this.” I said. “Take it with you,” he urged me, “and roll it around.”
The words 50 in my head. “Roll it around!” By rolling the ball I could hear where it went. This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought 51 : playing baseball. At Philadelphia’s Overbrook School for the Blind I 52 a successful variation of baseball and I called it ground ball.
All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time. I had to be clear about my 53 . It was no good trying for something that I knew at the start was wildly out of reach 54 that only invited the bitterness of failure. I would 55 sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.

第二节　(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
While Arabic may be the official language of many Middle Eastern 56 (nation), body language is also an important means of communication in Arab culture.
Placing your right hand on your heart is a warm greeting that can 57 (do) by itself or after a handshake. The gesture shows sincerity and respect. In Arab culture, handshakes are not only reserved for meeting or greeting someone, but they're also used when you say “goodbye.”
Once you fall into conversation, there are several 58 (help) hand gestures you should know: Touching your fingertips together while holding out your hand means “wait” or “be 59 (patience).” And if your friend or colleague is feeling stressed about something, you can move your hand outward away from your body to express that there are things in life that are not worth 60 (worry) about. Call it the Arab version of “Don’t worry; be happy.”
In addition 61 hand gestures, other body language used in daily life 62 (include) a quick movement of the head upward accompanied by a click of the tongue, 63 means “no” or “I disagree.” By contrast, tilting (倾斜) your head to the side with a smile 64 (usual) means “yes.”
So, while you’re learning Arabic words like “shukran” (thank you) and “masalamah” (goodbye), remember there are other ways to communicate and make yourself feel a part of 65 local culture.
【答案】
56. nations 57. be done 58. helpful 59. patient 60. worrying 61. to 62. includes 63. which 64. usually 65. the
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一些阿拉伯人的肢体语言。
56. 考查名词。句意：虽然阿拉伯语可能是许多中东国家的官方语言，但肢体语言也是阿拉伯文化中重要的交流手段。分析句子结构可知，此处为名词作宾语，nation意为“国家”，是可数名词，根据设空处前的many可知，此处为复数形式。故填nations。
57. 考查被动语态。句意：将右手放在心口是一种温暖的问候方式，既可以单独进行，也可以在握手之后进行。分析句子结构可知，此处位于情态动词之后，应为动词原形，that从句是定语从句，修饰先行词a warm greeting，所以该句主语that（指代greeting）与动词do之间是被动关系，用被动语态，又因设空处前是can。故填be done。
58. 考查形容词。句意：一旦你开始交谈，你应该知道几个有用的手势：伸出手的时候把指尖放在一起表示“等待”或“耐心”。分析句子结构可知，此处为形容词作定语修饰hand gestures，help的形容词为helpful意为“有用的”符合句意。故填helpful。
59. 考查形容词。句意：一旦你开始交谈，你应该知道几个有用的手势：伸出手的时候把指尖放在一起表示“等待”或“耐心”。分析句子结构可知，此处为形容词作表语，patience的形容词为patient意为“有耐心的”符合句意。故填patient。
60. 考查非谓语动词。句意：如果你的朋友或同事对某件事感到压力，你可以把手从身体上移开，表示生活中有一些事情不值得担心。分析句子结构可知，此处为固定用法be worth doing sth. 意为“值得做某事”，在该句型中，应使用主动形式表示被动意义。故填worrying。
61. 考查介词。句意：除了手势之外，日常生活中使用的其他肢体语言还包括头部快速向上移动并伴随着舌头的咔哒声，这意味着“不”或“我不同意”。分析句子结构可知，此处为固定短语in addition to 意为“除此以外”符合句意。故填to。
62. 考查谓语动词。句意：除了手势之外，日常生活中使用的其他肢体语言还包括头部快速向上移动并伴随着舌头的咔哒声，这意味着“不”或“我不同意”。分析句子结构可知，此处为描述的是客观事实，用一般现在时，又因include与句子主语other body language之间为主动关系，且主语为第三人称单数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填includes。
63. 考查定语从句。句意：除了手势之外，日常生活中使用的其他肢体语言还包括头部快速向上移动并伴随着舌头的咔哒声，这意味着“不”或“我不同意”。分析句子结构可知，此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句，是对上文中的a quick movement of the head upward accompanied by a click of the tongue(伴随着舌头的咔哒声，头部快速向上抬起)的补充说明，从句中缺少主语，先行词指的是事情。故填which。
64. 考查副词。句意：相比之下，微笑着把头歪向一边通常表示“是”。分析句子结构可知，此处为副词作状语修饰谓语动词means，usual的副词为usually意为“通常”符合句意。故填usually。
65. 考查冠词。句意：所以，当你在学习阿拉伯语单词“shukran”(谢谢)和“masalamah”(再见)时，记住还有其他的交流方式，让你感觉自己是当地文化的一部分。分析句子结构可知，culture为可数名词单数，其前须有限定词，结合句意可知，此处为特指上文中提到的Arab culture，所以使用定冠词。故填the。

第二节(满分25分)
67. 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。
For 19-year-old Stuart’s father, Peter, his family was his strength and pride.“Together we achieve but divided, we fall,” he often told his four sons, and Stuart was the youngest. Besides family, there was something else that Peter, 56, cherished and believed kept his family united and strong. It was his treasured farm that was passed on from generation to generation.
One day, however, his 19-year-old son, Stuart, approached his dad and told him he wanted his share of the fortune so that he could move to the city and start living his life alone. It was a terrible blow to Peter, who never wished to see his family break.
“But, you don’t know much about city life. I am afraid you’d wander like a lost lamb. This is your family, and we will always support you,” Peter disappointedly said as soon as Stuart told him his intention to leave the house.
“Dad, I’m nineteen, and I have heard plenty about the city from my friends. I don’t want to waste my time and energy farming with you. I have a purpose in life, and I don’t want to become a farmer like you.”
Peter tried changing his mind. “Son, I can give you your share of the fortune. But dear, this is too early to decide.” However, Stuart insisted on going out, so Peter had to give him his share.
Three years went by. Neither Peter nor his family heard anything about Stuart. One day, when the family least expected it, they saw a young man walk toward them. As he neared, they saw his old and dirty clothes and a face that had lost its charm. It was Stuart! Peter was shocked. “Daddy, I need your help ... I’m hungry,” Stuart cried.
“Oh, my dear ... Please sit down first,” Peter said and brought some tea and bread for him. Then Peter asked why he was in such a poor situation.
注意：

Stuart said he took the money and went to the city.

Overwhelmed by (被震撼)their love, Stuart was moved to tears.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Stuart said he took the money and went to the city. He started a small business and wanted to achieve big success quickly. Thus he could come back to family as a wealthy businessman. At first, everything went smoothly, but before long he failed in his business and lost all his money. Peter took Stuart to his room and said. “You might have left us, but we never forgot you. Your mom regularly changed the bed sheets and curtains like we did when you were here. I knew you would come back to us one day.”
Overwhelmed by their love, Stuart was moved to tears. From that day on, Stuart dedicated his time and energy to the farm and worked hard to prove himself worthy of his family’s love. He learned new farming techniques and took every little step to improve their income. Stuart realized that family was more important than money and success and that there would be no success without the love or support of family.
【解析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了十九岁的Stuart厌倦了农业生活，要求父亲Peter分给他那部分财富，他独自去城市生活。作为父亲，Peter虽然很不情愿，但在小儿子的坚持下，无奈分给他部分财产让他独自去城市打拼。结果三年之后，Stuart在城市混得很失败，赔光了所有的财富，只好回到了家人身边，在家人的支持下，Stuart在自家农场得到了很好发展。
