模块过关检测 (时间：100分钟　满分：120分) 第一部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Body language is as important as the language itself.And if you think it means the same all around the world，you've got that all wrong.Gestures that mean something in one country don't necessarily mean the same in another.As much as you need to learn a second language fluently，it's also vital to get to know gestures in different cultures.
