A
The mysterious science of reading gestures is explained using practical explanations and clear images. Gestures are products of both genetic (遗传的) and environmental influence. Understanding our gestures is not as difficult as some people would have you believe. All human beings use them and so actually have a “built in” ability to recognize and read it.
Fingers crossed
Generally this means “wishing for good luck or fortune”. Another explanation could be seen as “Here’s hoping”. The gesture probably has Christian origins where the gesture was believed to get away from evil. As such, people believe that crossing the fingers when telling a lie somehow gets away from the evil of the lie. Some historians believe that crossing your fingers is a hidden or secret way of making the Christian sign of cross—a piece way of defeating evils. As a gesture, it has both good and bad meanings. Luck or lies.
Waving the first finger
Mothers and teachers are common users with this hand gesture. In general, it is used to warn a single person. It is a change of the “you” gesture. If translated into language, it would say “Stop whatever you are doing and pay attention to me. I am your superior and I am warning you!” Classified as a “silent” parent to child gesture, it is completely unacceptable in a professional environment where it will be interpreted (诠释) as both rude and domineering (盛气凌人的). Some psychologists believe that it has a meaning of the whip.
1. What can we infer from the first paragraph
A. Reading gestures is a secret.
B. Gestures are formed in daily life.
C. Some people make reading gestures difficult on purpose.
D. It is hard to explain gestures by images.
2. What does a Christian crossing his fingers mean
A. Showing he isn’t lucky. B. Wishing to succeed.
C. Getting rid of the evil of the lie. D. Crossing the street.
3. What is the purpose of your mum’s waving her first finger
A. To wish for good luck. B. To stop you. C. To praise you. D. To help you.

When Marybeth Hearn was 10 years old, she asked her parents to let her train a dog to become a guide dog. It turned into a lifelong thing. Over more than fifty years, Hearn has raised 56 dogs to help visually impaired (视力受损的) people. But her influence doesn’t end there — the longtime high school teacher has encouraged several of her family members and some of her students to train many more.
When she looked to her parents for support years ago, things were different from what she expected. Her mom didn’t like dogs, and her dad doubted she would be able to find any money to pay for the cost of the training. However, Hearn presented the project at a Lions Club and raised $2, 500. So on a sunny summer day in 1962, the family drove home with a black Lab named Letta, the first of a long series of dog trainees.
Two sons and a granddaughter have followed in Hearn’s footsteps, but her greatest influence has come from guiding student trainers, who since 1992 have worked through a school club with 170 dogs that ended up in different service posts. They spend 14 months with each dog teaching them skills. The dogs live full-time with the students, attending their classes and field trips to become socialized.
The dogs then go to trainers employed by Guide Dogs for the Blind, an organization that partners with the program, before graduating and being paired with two-legged companions. Those that aren’t up to the difficult task of helping the blind can become other kinds of service animals. Often students attend the graduations and help pass the dogs on.
“I love seeing the look on kids’ faces ... when they get to see that dog again after three or four months and the dog remembers them,” Hearn said. “It’s a great feeling.”
4. What has Hearn done since she was a child
A. She has collected money for the blind.
B. She has trained dogs to help the blind.
C. She has petted and cared for many homeless dogs.
D. She has provided the blind with education for free.
5. What was the attitude of Hearn’s dad towards her plan
A. Mad. B. Uncaring. C. Unacceptable. D. Supportive.
6. If a dog fails to help the blind after graduation, it will _____.
A. continue to be trained
B. be taken away as a pet
C. live full-time with Hearn’s students
D. become another kind of service animal
7. Which of the following can best describe Hearn
A. Honest and hard-working.
B. Strong-minded and caring.
C. Outgoing and careful.
D. Strict and creative.
C
A simple gesture can be formed into a child’s memory so quickly that it will cause the child to give a false answer to a question accompanied by that gesture. A new finding suggests that parents, social workers, psychologists and lawyers should be careful with their hands as well as their words.
Gestures can be as informative as speech, but hand gestures are so common that we rarely notice we’re using them.
While the recall of both adults and children are easy to react to suggestion, the memories of children are known to be particularly influenced, said lead researcher Sara Broaders of Northwestern University. Kids are used to looking to adults to tell events for them and can be misled even if not intentionally(故意地).
Previous research, for example, has shown that detail-loaded questions often cause false answers; when asked, say “Did you drink juice at the picnic ”, the child is likely to say “yes” even if no juice had been available. It is not that the child is consciously lying, but rather the detail is quickly formed into his or her memory.
To avoid this problem, social workers have long been advised to ask children only open-ended questions, such as “What did you have at the picnic ” But an open-ended question paired with a gesture, briefly meaning a juice box, is treated like a detailed question. That is, children become likely to answer falsely.
And it isn’t just a few kids: 77% of children gave at least one piece of false information when a detail was suggested by an ordinary gesture. Gestures may also become more popular when talking with non-fluent language users, such as little kids, Broaders said as hand movements can impart meaning of unfamiliar words and phrases. “It certainly seems reasonable that adults would gesture more with children.”
In general, Broaders advises parents and other adults to “Try to be aware of your hands when questioning a child about an event. Otherwise, you might be getting answers that don’t reflect what actually happened.”
8. What do we know about gestures according to the text
A. They have a certain effect on children. B. They are rarely used by people.
C. They have no function at all. D. They are often used by social workers.
9. Why are kids easy to be misled by gestures according to Sara Broaders
A. These gestures are very attractive. B. Their memories are affected easily.
C. Children are easy to tell lies. D. These gestures are used frequently.
10. What does the underlined word “impart” in Paragraph 6 mean
A. Separate. B. Tell apart. C. Confuse. D. Pass on.
11. Which of the following can be the best title of the text
A. Gestures—a Useful Way of Education. B. Gestures Can Mislead Children.
C. Gestures Mean Adult’s Directions. D. Gestures Affect Children Much.
第二节 七选五(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。
Language is a part of culture and plays a very important role in it. ___12___ Yet language is not the only way to express our ideas and feelings. Body movement, eye contact, gesture, and facial expression are other forms of language we call nonverbal communication. ___13___ According to Social Anthropologist, Edward T. Hall, in a normal conversation between two persons, less than 15% of social meaning is transmitted (传达) by words.
Different cultures have different ways of using nonverbal communication and people have different gestures to convey their expressions. However, nonverbal communication, like traffic, is not random (随意的);it has a purpose. ___14___ Learning the different common rules of body language in different cultures is very useful for us to understand each other better.
People coming from the same culture share common understanding by using the same body language such as eye management, facial expressions, gestures, and body movements. ___15___ For example, “arms”, which are used little by Nordics during a conversation, are an important element in one’s communicative weaponry (武器) in Italy, Spain, and South America. ___16___ In these cultures, one should stand with feet pressed together and hands interlaced (交错) in front of the body. In cultures such as America, where you often stand with your feet shoulder length apart, arms at your side, standing in this fashion might be interpreted as being shy and insecure.
A. Misuse of body language can be unpleasant.
B. And there are common rules to guide its flow.
C. Without language, culture would not be possible.
D. Body language makes up the largest part of our nonverbal communication.
E. But in different cultures nonverbal communication takes on different patterns.
F. If you’ re learning a new language a great way is to watch movies and TV shows.

On a bright, warm July afternoon, Mac Hollan, a primary school teacher, was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends. One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair, but they had encouraged Mac to carry on, and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedaled (骑行)along alone, he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.
Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that’s a big dog!” he thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw instantly that it wasn’t a dog at all, but a wolf, quickly catching up with him.
Mac’s heart jumped. He found out his can of bear spray. With one hand on the bars, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac’s relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, it was by his side again. Then it attacked the back of Mac’s bike, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back only to quickly restart the chase (追赶).
Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down. He saw a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit the hill, he’d be easy to get caught up and the wolf’s teeth would be tearing into his flesh.
At this moment, Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They didn’t think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road. A bit later, they spotted what they, too, assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast, just a dozen yards away now.
Paragraph 1:
The car abruptly stopped in front of him.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
A few minutes later, the other cyclists arrived.

词句猜测题。根据第六段划线词所在句的前半句“Gestures may also become more popular when talking with non-fluent language users, such as little kids(手势在与不流利的语言使用者,比如小孩子交谈时也可能变得更受欢迎)”可知,手势在语言沟通不顺畅时可以起到帮助作用,传递信息,因此可以推断,划线词“impart”与“Pass on”同义,表示“传递”。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。本文主要讲述的是手势对孩子的影响,结合第一段最后一句“A new finding suggests that parents, social workers, psychologists and lawyers should be careful with their hands as well as their words.(一项新的发现表明,父母、社会工作者、心理学家和律师在说话的同时也注意小心自己的手)”及第三段最后一句“Kids are used to looking to adults to tell events for them and can be misled even if not intentionally(故意地).(孩子们习惯于指望大人为他们讲述事件,即使不是故意的,也可能被误导)”可知,“Gestures Can Mislead Children.(手势会误导孩子)”适合作为本文标题。故选B。

Language is a part of culture and plays a very important role in it. ___12___ Yet language is not the only way to express our ideas and feelings. Body movement, eye contact, gesture, and facial expression are other forms of language we call nonverbal communication. ___13___ According to Social Anthropologist, Edward T. Hall, in a normal conversation between two persons, less than 15% of social meaning is transmitted (传达) by words.
Different cultures have different ways of using nonverbal communication and people have different gestures to convey their expressions. However, nonverbal communication, like traffic, is not random (随意的);it has a purpose. ___14___ Learning the different common rules of body language in different cultures is very useful for us to understand each other better.
People coming from the same culture share common understanding by using the same body language such as eye management, facial expressions, gestures, and body movements. ___15___ For example, “arms”, which are used little by Nordics during a conversation, are an important element in one’s communicative weaponry (武器) in Italy, Spain, and South America. ___16___ In these cultures, one should stand with feet pressed together and hands interlaced (交错) in front of the body. In cultures such as America, where you often stand with your feet shoulder length apart, arms at your side, standing in this fashion might be interpreted as being shy and insecure.
A. Misuse of body language can be unpleasant.
B. And there are common rules to guide its flow.
C. Without language, culture would not be possible.
D. Body language makes up the largest part of our nonverbal communication.
E. But in different cultures nonverbal communication takes on different patterns.
F. If you’ re learning a new language, a great way is to watch movies and TV shows.
G. In Africa, standing in a too “open” fashion, means that your posture might be inappropriate.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. E 16. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。肢体语言可以帮助人们传递信息,但是同一种姿势可能会因文化不同而产生不同的含义。
【12题详解】
根据上文“Language is a part of culture and plays a very important role in it.(语言是文化的一部分,在文化中起着非常重要的作用)”可知,上文主要说明了语言的重要性,C项与上文中的“Language is a part of culture and plays a very important role in it.”为顺承关系,指出了语言在文化中的重要性。C项中的language、culture与上文中的Language、culture为原词复现关系。C选项“没有语言,就不可能有文化”符合语境,故选C。
【13题详解】
根据上文“Body movement, eye contact, gesture, and facial expression are other forms of language we call nonverbal communication.(身体动作、眼神交流、手势和面部表情是我们称之为非语言交流的其他形式的语言)”以及后文“According to Social Anthropologist, Edward T. Hall, in a normal conversation between two persons, less than 15% of social meaning is transmitted (传达) by words.(根据社会人类学家爱德华·t·霍尔的说法,在两人之间的正常对话中,只有不到15%的社会意义是通过语言传递的)”可知,本句对上文进行了进一步的解释说明,D项中的“nonverbal communication”与上文中的“nonverbal communication”为原词复现关系。此外,下文中引用的Edward T.Hall的发现是对D项的进一步解释。故D选项“肢体语言在我们的非语言交流中占了很大一部分”符合语境,故选D。
【14题详解】
根据上文“Different cultures have different ways of using nonverbal communication and people have different gestures to convey their expressions. However, nonverbal communication, like traffic, is not random (随意的);it has a purpose.(不同的文化有不同的使用非语言交流的方式,人们有不同的手势来表达他们的表情。然而,非语言交流,就像交通一样,不是随机的;它是有目的的)”可知,上文主要提到了非语言交流的方式是有目的的,故本句继续提到非语言交流背后的规则,B项中的“there are common rules to guide its flow”与上文中的“is not random”相照应;its指代上文中的“nonverbal communication”。故B选项“有一些共同的规则来引导它的流动”符合语境,故选B。
【15题详解】
根据下文“For example, “arms”, which are used little by Nordics during a conversation, are an important element in one’s communicative weaponry (武器) in Italy, Spain, and South America.(例如,arms一词在北欧人的谈话中很少使用,但在意大利、西班牙和南美,它是交际武器的重要组成部分)”指出了同一个词语在不同文化中有不同的含义,可知本句与上文为转折关系,指出非语言交际有不同的模式。E选项“但是在不同的文化中,非语言交际有不同的模式”符合语境,故选E。
【16题详解】
根据后文“In these cultures, one should stand with feet pressed together and hands interlaced (交错) in front of the body. In cultures such as America, where you often stand with your feet shoulder length apart, arms at your side, standing in this fashion might be interpreted as being shy and insecure.(在这些文化中,一个人应该站在前面,两脚并拢,双手交叉。在像美国这样的文化中,你经常双脚分开站着,手臂放在身体两侧,这样站着可能会被理解为害羞和没有安全感)”可知,本句与下文为顺承关系,指出非洲文化中应使用的正确站姿。G项中的standing与下文中的stand及standing为原词复现关系。G选项“在非洲,站得太‘开放’意味着你的姿势可能不合适”符合语境,故选G。

【解析】

【32题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:据问卷网的一项调查,大约96%的被采访的年轻人说他们愿意购买国潮产品。分析句子结构,空白处在句子中作后置定语,与其逻辑主语young people之间为逻辑上的被动关系,需使用过去分词,故填interviewed。
【33题详解】
考查名词。句意:同时,91.6%的被采访者表达出了他们比以往更强的对更多的视频节目更深刻地挖掘传统中国文化的期待。分析句子结构,根据空白处前面的物主代词their可知,空白处应使用名词的复数形式,故填expectations。
【34题详解】

【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:与喜欢西方文化和品牌的老一代人不同的是,中国的年轻人是在国家的经济正在腾飞的阶段长大的,因此他们倾向于对他们的民族身份和民族文化有着很强的自信。分析句子结构,这是一个包含限制性定语从句的复合句,先行词是generations,指人,从句缺少主语,应用关系代词who/that引导,故填who/that。
【38题详解】

【39题详解】
考查形容词。句意同上。分析句子结构,空白处在句子中作定语修饰后面的名词identity,应使用形容词形式,故填national。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意:年轻人现在能接触各种各样的中国文化遗产,他们承载着传播中国文化的责任。a variety of是固定短语,意为“各种各样的”。故填a。
【41题详解】

【答案】Last weekend, I am very lucky to interview Kelly lam, a professor of psychology, talking about the Chinese students’ opinion on sharing feelings. In China, more than 30% of the students are unwilling to share their feelings no matter when they are delighted or worried. What’s worse, our education doesn’t let children know the importance of sharing. Professor Lam believes that we live in a time in which sharing feelings is so necessary.

On a bright, warm July afternoon, Mac Hollan, a primary school teacher, was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends. One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair, but they had encouraged Mac to carry on, and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedaled (骑行)along alone, he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.
Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that’s a big dog!” he thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw instantly that it wasn’t a dog at all, but a wolf, quickly catching up with him.
Mac’s heart jumped. He found out his can of bear spray. With one hand on the bars, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac’s relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, it was by his side again. Then it attacked the back of Mac’s bike, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back only to quickly restart the chase (追赶).
Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down. He saw a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit the hill, he’d be easy to get caught up and the wolf’s teeth would be tearing into his flesh.
At this moment, Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They didn’t think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road. A bit later, they spotted what they, too, assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast, just a dozen yards away now.
Paragraph 1:
The car abruptly stopped in front of him.

【答案】One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
The car abruptly stopped in front of him. Paul and Becky got out of the car immediately to offer him help. But with the bare hands, they didn’t dare to fight with the wolf. However, they still approached the wolf bravely. At the same time, the wolf also noticed them and turned its head back, howling at Paul and Becky. Mac then jumped off the bicycle and was ready to fight against the wolf. That reached deadlock.
Paragraph 2:
A few minutes later, the other cyclists arrived. Among them were Mac’s friends who jumped off their bicycles and joined the fight with the wolf the moment they saw the critical situation. More passers-by gathered. Some took out the sticks from the cars, and some took out the knives, even the guns towards the wolf. The wolf, probably sensing the threats from the people, started to withdraw. Off the road ran the wolf and into the distance it disappeared. There was a widespread sigh of relief among the crowds!
