9、启下的作用。答案：C37解析：本段主要讲一些人对禁忌的看法，比如一些私人问题不能在公共场合谈论等。根据设空前一句中的too much volume of ones voice may annoy people可知，在一些国家，说话声音太大会惹恼别人，F项(他们可能认为大声说笑是粗鲁的或充满挑衅的)正好是对上一句的解析。答案：F38解析：根据设空后一句中的eye contact可知，本段主要讲眼神接触在不同文化中有不同的要求，属于肢体语言。故A项(非语言禁忌通常和肢体语言有关)符合语境。答案：A39解析：本段讲的是眼神接触的作用，根据关键词eye contact可知，G项与该段主题一致。答案：G
10、40解析：本段介绍手势语在不同国家的含义。上一句介绍了把中指和食指交叠起来，在很多西方国家意味着好运。下文应该介绍其他国家对此不同的理解，B项“然而在越南和阿根廷，这是一个粗鲁的手势”符合语境。答案：BPassage 2(2017东北三校二模)Top Ways to Spend the Holiday Season with Pets Taking a nap is a great way to refresh during the holidays，and a nap with your dog or cat (or both) is an excellent bonding opportu

34、spiritual seeker and researcher，took on the topic of forgiveness and healing.She explained why “I never meant to hurt you” is never a sufficient apology，no matter who it comes from.“Picture that person coming up to you and saying, Im sorry I did this._37_And can we just call it a day？” Caroline says
35、.As tempting as it can be to move on and bury the hatchet (和解)，that type of apology wont sit well with the person on the receiving end.“That whole little thing I never meant to hurt you thats the thing you cant forgive”，she says.“It goes right to your soul，that sick feeling.”Instead, Caroline says i

39、来道歉是不够的。36解析：根据下文的内容尤其是“She explained why I never meant to hurt you is never a sufficient apology，no matter who it comes from”可知，此处讲的应是用“我从没想过要伤害你”这句话来道歉的不足，故G项“但是，这并不是一种合适的道歉的方法”符合语境。答案：G37解析：根据本段内容可知，此处是Caroline Myss让大家想象一下有人用“我从没想过要伤害你”来向你道歉时的情景，故E项符合题意。答案：E38解析：根据上文的“its about offering more than
40、 an apology”以及下文的“This is not an apology.I am confessing (忏悔) my soul to you”可知F项“Its about sharing a soultosoul confession”与之相呼应，表示道歉应该是心灵对心灵的忏悔。下文中的“within the soul”亦是提示。答案：F39解析：根据空后的“It was guilt.I heard my conscience tell me not to do this but I didnt listen.”可知，此处讲的应该是当时所做的错事方面的内容，故D项符合语境。答案：D
