54、rhaps the most famous theory, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Ray Birdwhistell. He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed. In other words, we learn our looks we are not born with them. A baby has generally informed face features. A baby, according to
55、Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around the family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some areas of the US look so much alike. New Englanders or Southerners have certain common face features that cannot be explained by genetics (遗传学). The exact shape
56、of the mouth is not set at birth. It is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set. For many people, this can be well into their childhood. A husband and wife who have lived together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our l
57、ooks from those around us. This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas. In the US, for example, the south is the part of the country where people smile most frequently. In New Zealand they smile less, and in the western part of New York p
58、eople are considered unfriendly, partly because people in Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than people in small towns do.72. Ray Birdwhistell believes that physical appearan
59、ce _.A. has little to do with the surroundings B. has much to do with cultureC. is changing all the time D. is almost the same in any part of a country73. According to the passage, a persons final mouth shape is formed _.A. as soon as his teeth are newly setB. before he is bornC. some time after new
60、 teeth are setD. when he is around 15 years old74. Ray Birdwistell can tell what area of an American person is from by _.A. how much he smilesB. how he raises his eyebrowsC. what he likesD. the way he talks75. According to the passage, more friendly people probably live in _.A. largely populated are

66、on)Dear Editor, Recently I made a survey about how the middle school students spend their summer holidays. The results are as follows. 73% of the students say they are not happy at all during the summer holidays. They have private teachers at home, or attend various training courses. Another 18% say
67、 they are happy, because they spend their holidays at their grandparents house and have a good chance to make new friends. However, 9% feel lonely and bored, for they are not allowed to spend time with their friends, so they play computer games at home. I think parents should trust their children an
68、d give them more freedom to arrange their own time. At the same time, they should encourage children to take part in more social activities to make their holidays more colorful.Yours truly, Li Ming 听力材料:Text 1M: Did all the students in your class pass the English test on Friday?W: No, only forty-six

81、power cut off. Scores of families were left homeless for the roofs of their houses were blown away.The scenes of destruction can be seen everywhere. In Main Street, the car park was flooded completely. We can still see cars that have been badly damaged by floodwater. Some cars were carried across th
82、e parking area and dumped into storm-water drains. Its terrible. In White Street, some big trees were uprooted and smashed into parked cars. I think it has caused a lot of problems for the insurance company. They have to pay thousands of dollars for the loss. Its recorded that the speed of the winds reached eighty kilometers per hour. Worse still, in Green Street, a tree fell on a bus which was taking some basketball players to a game. Luckily, no one in the bus was hurt. As for tomorrow, its reported the weather condition will be improved. Clear skies can be expected.
