Love is a two-way street
A father sat at his desk and looked at his bills when his young son rushed in and announced, “Dad, because today is your birthday and you’re 40 years old, I’m going to give you 40 kisses, one for each year!” When the boy started making good on his word (履行诺言), the father shouted, “Andrew, don’t do it now. I’m too busy!”
The boy soon fell silent as tears fell from his big blue eyes. Feeling sorry, the father said, “You can finish later.” The boy said nothing but quietly walked away. That evening the father said, “Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew!” But the boy didn’t.
Unfortunately, a few days later after the father’s birthday, the boy had an accident and died. His sad father wrote: “If only (要是……该多好) I could tell him how sorry I am for my thoughtless words, and how much my heart is hurting.”
Love is a two-way street. We must warmly accept any loving act, or others will take it as a “NO” and it can leave a scar (伤痕). If we don’t receive love, our life will lose its true meaning. Nothing is more important than accepting love from those who are near and dear to us.

If the eyes are the windows of the soul, then the body is the mirror of our feelings. If we are feeling great, we may give our body signals(信号). If we look at someone else’s body, we can often tell how they are feeling by their body signals. So reading body language signals is a great tool in daily communication.
In case(假使) you don’t think that learning how to read and use body language is important, here are some numbers for you. 7% of the information we receive is from what people actually say, and 38% of the information we receive is from the tone(语气) and the speed of their voice; while 55% of the information we receive is from their body language.
These non-verbal(非口头的) signals will help you a lot, but you still need to focus on what people are saying. If you focus too much on their body language signals, you and the person may feel uncomfortable. It is useful to be able to read people’s body language, but it is useful to learn how to send the right signals and avoid the wrong signals too. Body language may be given several interpretations. Many signals have different meanings, depending on the person and the situation. Be sure of it when you are trying to read a body language signal.
41. The numbers mentioned in the second paragraph are to ___________.
A. explain what body language is
B. show the importance of body language
C. tell us body language is less used than verbal language
D. tell us body language is the only tool in communication
42. What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A. Body language is widely used all over the world
B. Body language can be explained in different ways.
C. It’s too hard to understand the meanings of body language
D. People have already looked through many books on body language.
43. According to the writer, body language is very ___________.
A. simple to learn B. negative to be used
C. hard to understand D. helpful in communication
44. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Body language is uncomfortable.
B. What people are saying is not important
C. Body language can show your emotion.
D. To send wrong signals is not body language
45. We can infer(推断) that the writer will most probably talk about __________ next.
A. what the wrong body language signals are
B. examples of how to understand body language correctly.
C. numbers about how many people wrongly use body language
D. an analysis (分析) of why people wrongly understand body language
【答案】41. B 42. B 43. D 44. C 45. B
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了身体语言可以有不同的解释。许多身体语言都有不同的意义,以及读懂身体语言的重要性。

C
Who doesn’t wish he could fly like a bird? Well, until technology can give us all wings, one of our best choices is paragliding (滑翔伞运动). Paragliding works by sitting in a harness. The harness is tied to a parachute (降落伞) and you use the wind to fly. To paraglide, you usually need to go somewhere high, like a hill or mountain. The pilot will first make the parachute full of air by pulling it up like a kite, and then it’s time to run down the hillside until you reach a good speed to take off. Unless you have a special license to do it yourself, you will fly with a pilot.
I went paragliding in Peru’s Sacred Valley, from a mountain more than 3, 000 meters above sea level. The most difficult part of paragliding for me was not the flying, but the waiting. I started to feel nervous about watching others go ahead of me. But the pilot helped keep me composed. So I didn’t feel nervous.
On an average paragliding trip, you can expect to enjoy flying like a bird for 10 to 30 minutes. Then it’s time to land. I remember the pilot told me to get my legs ready, as landing on your legs is the safest way to land-just like a bird.
Paragliders have set some amazing records, like the highest flight (9, 946 meters) and the longest flight (9, 132 km). In 2020, a Canadian man named Benjamin Jordan became the first person to travel by paraglider from Mexico to Canada (not all in one go, though). He was inspired to do it because of the great migration (迁徙) of monarch butterflies. Each year, millions of these butterflies travel up to 4, 800 km to complete their journey!
46. To go paragliding by yourself you must ________.
A. fly a kite high first B. learn how to climb hills
C. pilot a plane for years D. have a special license
47. The writer mainly tells us ________ from the second paragraph.
A. the way to go paragliding B. the time for paragliding
C. the place to go paragliding D. the person for paragliding
48. What was the most difficult part of paragliding for the writer?
A. The flying process B. Calming the pilot down.
C. Waiting for her turn. D. Landing on land like a bird.
49. The underlined word “composed” here means “________”.
A. nervous B. calm C. excited D. happy
50. Which of the following is CORRECT?
A. The highest paragliding flight is 9, 132 m above sea level.
B. The longest paragliding flight is 4, 800 km done by a Canadian man.
C. A Canadian man paraglided for 4, 800 km along with monarch butterflies.
D. Benjamin Jordan is the first to travel from Mexico to Canada by paragliding.
【答案】46. D 47. A 48. C 49. B 50. D
【解析】

主旨大意题。通读第二段内容可知,作者重点介绍了进行滑翔伞运动的方法。故选A。
【48题详解】

【49题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“So I didn’t feel nervous.”可知,作者不紧张,可推测出“composed”意为“镇静的”,与“calm”意思相同。故选B。
【50题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In 2020, a Canadian man named Benjamin Jordan became the first person to travel by paraglider from Mexico to Canada (not all in one go, though).”可知,Benjamin Jordan成为第一位乘坐滑翔伞从墨西哥前往加拿大的人。故选D。

Love is a two-way street
A father sat at his desk and looked at his bills when his young son rushed in and announced, “Dad, because today is your birthday and you’re 40 years old, I’m going to give you 40 kisses, one for each year!” When the boy started making good on his word (履行诺言), the father shouted, “Andrew, don’t do it now. I’m too busy!”
The boy soon fell silent as tears fell from his big blue eyes. Feeling sorry, the father said, “You can finish later.” The boy said nothing but quietly walked away. That evening the father said, “Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew!” But the boy didn’t.
Unfortunately, a few days later after the father’s birthday, the boy had an accident and died. His sad father wrote: “If only (要是……该多好) I could tell him how sorry I am for my thoughtless words, and how much my heart is hurting.”
Love is a two-way street. We must warmly accept any loving act, or others will take it as a “NO” and it can leave a scar (伤痕). If we don’t receive love, our life will lose its true meaning. Nothing is more important than accepting love from those who are near and dear to us.
36. On his father’s birthday, the boy wanted to __________.
A. help pay the bills B. have a talk with his father
C. buy his father a gift D. give his father kisses
37. The boy felt __________ when his father refused him.

A. the father is busy with his work B. the boy is hard-working
C. the father doesn’t like the boy D. the boy is too careless

If the eyes are the windows of the soul, then the body is the mirror of our feelings. If we are feeling great, we may give our body signals(信号). If we look at someone else’s body, we can often tell how they are feeling by their body signals. So reading body language signals is a great tool in daily communication.
In case(假使) you don’t think that learning how to read and use body language is important, here are some numbers for you. 7% of the information we receive is from what people actually say, and 38% of the information we receive is from the tone(语气) and the speed of their voice; while 55% of the information we receive is from their body language.
These non-verbal(非口头的) signals will help you a lot, but you still need to focus on what people are saying. If you focus too much on their body language signals, you and the person may feel uncomfortable. It is useful to be able to read people’s body language, but it is useful to learn how to send the right signals and avoid the wrong signals too. Body language may be given several interpretations. Many signals have different meanings, depending on the person and the situation. Be sure of it when you are trying to read a body language signal.
41. The numbers mentioned in the second paragraph are to ___________.
A. explain what body language is
B. show the importance of body language
C. tell us body language is less used than verbal language
D. tell us body language is the only tool in communication
42. What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A. Body language is widely used all over the world
B. Body language can be explained in different ways.
C. It’s too hard to understand the meanings of body language
D. People have already looked through many books on body language.
43. According to the writer, body language is very ___________.
A. simple to learn B. negative to be used
C. hard to understand D. helpful in communication
44. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Body language is uncomfortable.
B. What people are saying is not important
C. Body language can show your emotion.
D. To send wrong signals is not body language
45. We can infer(推断) that the writer will most probably talk about __________ next.
A. what the wrong body language signals are
B. examples of how to understand body language correctly.
C. numbers about how many people wrongly use body language
D. an analysis (分析) of why people wrongly understand body language
C
Who doesn’t wish he could fly like a bird? Well until technology can give us all wings, one of our best choices is paragliding (滑翔伞运动). Paragliding works by sitting in a harness. The harness is tied to a parachute (降落伞) and you use the wind to fly. To paraglide, you usually need to go somewhere high, like a hill or mountain. The pilot will first make the parachute full of air by pulling it up like a kite, and then it’s time to run down the hillside until you reach a good speed to take off. Unless you have a special license to do it yourself, you will fly with a pilot.
I went paragliding in Peru’s Sacred Valley, from a mountain more than 3, 000 meters above sea level. The most difficult part of paragliding for me was not the flying, but the waiting. I started to feel nervous about watching others go ahead of me. But the pilot helped keep me composed. So I didn’t feel nervous.
On an average paragliding trip, you can expect to enjoy flying like a bird for 10 to 30 minutes. Then it’s time to land. I remember the pilot told me to get my legs ready, as landing on your legs is the safest way to land-just like a bird.
Paragliders have set some amazing records, like the highest flight (9, 946 meters) and the longest flight (9, 132 km). In 2020, a Canadian man named Benjamin Jordan became the first person to travel by paraglider from Mexico to Canada (not all in one go, though). He was inspired to do it because of the great migration (迁徙) of monarch butterflies. Each year, millions of these butterflies travel up to 4, 800 km to complete their journey!
46. To go paragliding by yourself, you must ________.
A. fly a kite high first B. learn how to climb hills
C. pilot a plane for years D. have a special license
47. The writer mainly tells us ________ from the second paragraph.
A. the way to go paragliding B. the time for paragliding
C. the place to go paragliding D. the person for paragliding
48. What was the most difficult part of paragliding for the writer?
A. The flying process B. Calming the pilot down.
C. Waiting for her turn. D. Landing on land like a bird.
49. The underlined word “composed” here means “________”.
A. nervous B. calm C. excited D. happy
50. Which of the following is CORRECT?
A. The highest paragliding flight is 9, 132 m above sea level.
B. The longest paragliding flight is 4, 800 km done by a Canadian man.
C. A Canadian man paraglided for 4, 800 km along with monarch butterflies.
D. Benjamin Jordan is the first to travel from Mexico to Canada by paragliding.
