28、条件。由后文内容可知，后文讲的都是肢体语言之所以重要的原因，故选B。6Dpleasant令人愉快的；common普通的；confusing令人困惑的； hard困难的。hard to imagine意为“很难想象”。7A由“without any body language”可推知这里表达的意思是：没有肢体语言参与的话。involve使参与；perform执行； talk交谈； mix混合。8D句意：光说而不做任何手势、面部表情或其他身体动作将是多么枯燥乏味啊！ 此处表并列，且前面有否定词without，故用连词or。9B 由常识可知，肢体动作使谈话更生动(lively)。meaningful

30、由后文的“in the library”可知，此处指在有些场合，我们不能大声说话，故选loudly，修饰speak。 14D安静的(quiet)教室不能大声喧哗，故选D。15B由语境可知，在前文那些情况中肢体语言是相当有必要的(necessary)。故选B。appropriate适当的；available可获得的； embarrassing使人尴尬的。16B由后文的“so a nod or wave of the hand may be OK”可知，没必要停下(stop)来去聊天。17D句意：你的肢体语言会向别人传递一个强烈的信息，所以要注意，如果你说话时双臂交叉放在胸前，你就是在把别人拒之门

37、think about意为“考虑”，其中about为介词，其后接名词、代词或动名词作宾语；由上文中的 think about communication可知此处也用名词作宾语，interact的名词形式为interaction，故填interactions。 2have spent考查时态和主谓一致。由时间状语In the past years可知，句中的动作开始于过去并持续到现在，应用现在完成时，主语scientists为复数形式，故填have spent。3one考查代词。由句中another可知，句子表达的是赞成“一个”人，不喜欢另一个人，空格处应用one，泛指“一个”，one pers
38、on泛指“一个人”，与后文的another形成对照。4are influenced考查时态、语态和主谓一致。陈述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时，that引导的定语从句，作主语的先行词clues 与influence为逻辑上的被动关系，故应用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为复数形式，故填are influenced。5straighten考查固定搭配。固定短语straighten up，意为“直起身来，挺直身子”，在句中作谓语。6powerless考查形容词。feel意为系动词，后接形容词作表语。由By contrast可知，本句话是在与上文进行对比，由上文的powerful可知，上文讲的是我们强大的时候会挺直腰板，由此可推断出这里指的是当我们感到“无力”时。7that考查主语从句。 It为形式主语，真正的主语是所填词引导的从句，从句中不缺成分且意思完整，故用that引导从句。 8gestures考查名词的数。gesture为可数名词，句中表示不止一个姿势，故用gesture的复数形式。 9to feel考查非谓语动词。 “be likely to do sth”意为“可能做某事”。 10down考查固定搭配。“break down”意为“消除”，句中指消除我们的害羞和无力感。
