Sign language uses facial expressions, hand movements and body language. It is used instead of speaking or writing. There is no one universal sign language. Different countries have their own. There are around 300 sign languages in the world. The most common in the UK is British Sign Language (BSL). Like spoken languages, sign languages grow and change. Signs can stand for whole ideas.

But historians believe it may be even older than spoken language. Native Americans have used a sign language called Hand Talk. It has even been taught to animals. In the 1970s, a gorilla named Koko learned signs for hundreds of words. Scientists say Koko asked for a kitten for Christmas using sign language. In the UK, the earliest known use of sign language was at a wedding in 1576. And the first school opened for deaf children in Scotland in 1760. Although it was widely used, signing wasn’t encouraged until the 1970s. And most deaf children were taught spoken and written language instead. 69.

(根据以下内容回答问题)(12分) Lost and found A few years ago, after a long weekend in Inner Mongolia(内蒙古), my friend Andy and I returned to Beijing. After getting off the train, we packed ourselves into a crowded bus to go home. After getting off, we decided to get some coffee. “I’ll get two lattes (拿铁咖啡). We need to wake up,” I said, reaching into my shirt for money. Gone. No wallet. No passport. Everything was gone. Andy ran off to scan the street but came back shaking his head. “It’s no use,” I said, trying to stay calm. “I’m going to the office. I need to freeze my bank card and find a copy of my passport.” I reported the theft to my boss, Mr.Chen. “It’ll be okay,” he said. “You had a good time other than this, I hope?” I nodded, though the fun of the weekend was already a distant memory. I walked over to my desk, feeling sad. Suddenly, my phone rang. “Are you Michelle McGraw? Have you lost your wallet?” a male voice asked. “Yes,” I answered. “I’m Officer Gao. Come to our station. Mr.Liu Yumin has turned in a wallet. We think it’s yours.” Shocked, I handed my phone to a Chinese colleague. After talking to the policeman, she smiled, “ You must be the luckiest person in Beijing today.” The next day, Mr.Chen took me to meet Mr.Liu at a seafood restaurant. “He doesn’t want a reward,” my boss told me. “I guess you can buy him a nice meal to show your gratitude(感激).” The gentleman was a taxi driver. After finding my wallet that day, he immediately called 110. The police came and took it away. After the meal, I thanked him again. My “rescuer” nodded with a smile. “_____________________ ,” he said and shook my hand goodbye. From then on, my impression on Chinese people changed. 88.
