23、akness or unfriendliness.Friends may place a hand on the others arm or shoulder.Some people,usually women,greet a friend with a hug.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 d
24、irectly.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 dont do so,it means you are
25、 bored,hiding something,or are not interested.But when you stare at someone,it is not polite.For Americans,thumbs-up means yes,very good,or well done.Thumbs-down 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
26、 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 finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.Learning a cultures body language is sometimes confusing.If you don

28、述,即文章主旨是手势作为一种“沉默的语言”可以帮助人们进行沟通交流。故选B项。22If you are introduced to a stranger from the US,you should .A.greet him with a hugB.place a hand on his shoulderC.shake his hand firmlyD.shake his hand weakly答案:C解析:细节理解题。根据文章第二段第一、二、三句话可知,在美国的正式场合人们之间相互问候时要有力地握手,否则会被视为不友好。故选C项。23According to the passage whic

30、三段第三句可知,当两个人站得太近时,美国人会感觉不舒服;根据本段第二句可排除A项;根据本段第五句可排除B、C两项。由此确定答案为D项。24When your American friend gives you the thumbs-up,he,in fact,.A.shows his rudeness to youB.shows his anger to youC.expresses his satisfaction to youD.expresses his worries about you答案:C解析:细节理解题。根据文章第四段第一句可知,在美国对你竖起大拇指意思是对你很满意,夸奖你做得
31、好。故选C项。BBody language or,as it is also known,non-verbal communication, is about all the things that people say and do without using words.Research suggests that more than 70% of communication occurs without people having to say a single word.Like language,the way we communicate non-verbally varies a
32、cross cultures.But,unlike language, it can be very difficult to find out what the non-verbal rules are.Its all very well known that there are differences in the ways that cultures work,but what can you do to try to prepare yourself for living and surviving in another culture?I think youve got two th
33、ings to think about.I personally dont fully accept the idea of “When in Rome,do as the Romans do.” I dont think people expect you to completely adopt all of the things that they do.What I think that people would like is that you agree and understand it and that you do your best.One of the things you
34、 can do is actually explain to the other culture,saying,“Well,you know,actually we dont normally kiss in my culture, so its a bit uncomfortable.” But then do your best, so its a learning process.Well,kissing is just one of many different ways of interaction that you need to know.You can get into dif
35、ficult or embarrassing or even worse situations if you dont know it.Eye contact, tone of voice, how close you stand,any touching,how many times you kiss,a long handshake,a short handshake,it can go on and on.So I think, yes, you do need to get these correct and you need to have good observation skil

47、析:标题选择题。本文主要讲述瑜伽和视力之间的关系,因此其标题应体现这两方面的关系。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Monkeys are very similar to us in many ways.Most have ten fingers and ten toes,and brains much like ours.In fact,Charles Darwins theory of evolution says that monkeys and humans share a common ance
