双基限时练(十一)　Unit 4　Part Ⅱ

Ⅰ.用所给动词的适当形式填空

1．________ (seat) himself by a table, the gentleman asked the waiter for a cup of coffee politely.

答案与解析　Seating　句意：这位绅士在桌旁坐好后，礼貌地向服务生要了一杯咖啡。seat为及物动词，表示“使(自己)就座”，其逻辑主语为the gentleman，所以用现在分词形式。

2．The party will be held in the garden, weather ________ (permit)．

答案与解析　permitting　句意：如果天气允许，聚会将在花园中举行。逗号前后两部分的主语不同，由此可判断逗号后面部分是独立主格结构， weather与permit之间是主谓关系，所以用permitting。

3．I'm afraid we'll have to work extra hours, for there are still some problems remaining ________ (settle)．

答案与解析　to be settled　此处是分词短语作后置定语，remain与problems之间为主动关系，故应用现在分词形式；问题是亟待被解决，故应用to be settled。

4．To catch the first train, they went ________ (run) all the way.

答案与解析　running　该句中主语they与run之间存在主动关系，故用running作伴随状语。

5．The student stood in front of the door, not ________ (know) what to do.

答案与解析　knowing　the student与know为主动关系，故用knowing作伴随状语。

6．John has really got the job because he showed me the official letter ________ (offer) him it.

答案与解析　offering　句意：John已经得到了这份工作，因为他给我看了提供他这份工作的公函。offer与the official letter之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词短语在句中充当后置定语。

7．The mother hurried to work, ________ (leave) her son alone at home.

答案与解析　leaving　the mother与leave为主动关系，故在该句中用leaving作结果状语。

8．The old man, ________ (work) abroad for twenty years, is on the way back to his motherland.

答案与解析　having worked　句意：这位老人，在国外工作二十年以后，踏上了回国之路。因为“在国外工作二十年”发生在回国之前，所以应该用现在分词的完成式作状语。

9．________ (stand) in a long queue, we waited for the store to open to buy a new iPad.

答案与解析　Standing　句意：我们站在长长的队伍中等商店开门了买新款iPad。逻辑主语we与动词stand之间为主谓关系，故用现在分词短语作伴随状语。

10．________ (suffer) from heart trouble for years, Professor White has to take some medicine with him wherever he goes.

答案与解析　Having suffered　句意：因为患有多年的心脏病，怀特教授去哪儿都带着药。因为患病在先，所以应该用现在分词的完成式作状语。

Ⅲ.阅读理解

A

We need to know another kind of language — body language, a part of nonverbal communication. All over the world, people “talk” with their hands, with their heads and with their eyes. When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians meet, they put their hands together. What do American and British people do? Americans are more informal than the British. They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable. British people are more reserved(保守的). They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask you home. When British and American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends，and men kiss women friends, when a man meets a man friend，he just smiles，and says “Hello”. Men don't kiss each other, or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.

Sometimes people add to what they say even when they don't talk. Gestures are the “silent language” of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.

In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place hand on the other's arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug(拥抱)．

Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident，they say, “Pardon me.” or “Excuse me”．

Americans like to look at the other person in the eyes when they are talking. If you don't do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite.

For Americans, thumbs­up means yes, very good, or well done. Thumbs­down means the opposite. To call a waiter, raise one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement with your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger. Americans shake their index fingers at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.

Learning a culture's body language is sometimes confusing. If you don't know what to do，the safest thing to do is to smile.
