(说明：文中加蓝词汇为主题词汇) Dr Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional communication to be recorded in the animal kingdom.Only humans and chimps, she said, had a system of communication where they deliberately sent a message to another group member. “That's what's so amazing about chimp gestures，” she said.“They're the only thing that looks like human language in that respect.” Although previous research has shown that apes and monkeys can understand complex information from another animal's call, the animals do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages.This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr Hobaiter said. Chimps will check to see if they have the attention of the animal with which they wish to communicate.In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, signalling: “Climb on me.” The youngster immediately jumps on to its mother's back and they travel off together.“The big message from this study is that there is another species (物种) out there that is meaningful in its communication, so that's not unique to humans，” said Dr Hobaiter. Dr Susanne Shultz, an evolutionary biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language.But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”． “The vagueness of the gesture meanings suggests either that the chimps have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information contained in their gestures and actions，” she said.“Moreover, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals convey with non-verbal communication.So, it seems the gulf remains.” [真题评价] [价值导向]　 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员已经破译出野生黑猩猩用来交流的手势的含义。文章拓宽了学生对语言交流多样性的认知，同时引导学生感受科研的客观性和严谨性，培养学生学以致用的意识和勇于探索的科研精神。 √ 1．What do chimps and humans have in common according to Dr Hobaiter? A．Memorizing specific words. B．Understanding complex information. C．Using voices to communicate. D．Communicating messages on purpose. 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Only humans and chimps, she said, had a system of communication where they deliberately sent a message to another group member.”可知，Dr Hobaiter认为黑猩猩和人类的相似之处在于它们也会有目的地传递信息进行沟通。 √ 2．What did Dr Shultz think of the study? A．It was well designed but poorly conducted. B．It was a good try but the findings were limited. C．It was inspiring but the evidence was unreliable. D．It was a failure but the methods deserved praise. 解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“...said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language.But, she added, the results were ‘a little disappointing’．”可知，Dr Shultz认为这项研究丰富了原有的知识，但研究成果有限，还有不足之处。 3．What does the underlined word “gulf” in the last paragraph mean? A．Difference. B．Conflict. C．Balance. D．Connection. 解析：词义猜测题。根据最后一段中的“Moreover, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals convey with non-verbal communication.”可知，黑猩猩手势传递的信息的含义并没有超出其他动物通过非语言方式所传达的含义，因此和人类的语言交流方式还是存在差异。故推测gulf在此意为“差异”。故选A。 √ 4．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Chimpanzee behaviour study achieved a breakthrough B．Chimpanzees developed specific communication skills C．Chimpanzees: the smartest species in the animal kingdom D．Chimpanzee language: communication gestures translated 解析：标题归纳题。阅读全文可知，文章是围绕着黑猩猩的语言沟通来进行阐述的。文章第一句点明了主旨，即研究人员表明他们已经破译出野生黑猩猩用来交流的手势的含义。故D项为最佳标题。 √ [语篇精读] 一、理文脉，把握文章大意 本文是一篇说明文，采用了“研究—发现”型的语篇模式。 二、拓词汇，厚积语基语料 1．因境辨义(写出下列蓝体词在文中的词性及含义) ①(熟词生义)They're the only thing that looks like human language in that respect.________ ②(一词多义)“The vagueness of the gesture meanings suggests either that the chimps have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information contained in their gestures and actions，” she said.____________ ③(派生词)Moreover, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals convey with non-verbal communication.____________ n.方面 v.显示；表明 adj.非语言的 2．词块积累(写出下列词块在文中的汉语意思) ①one another　　　　　　 _____ ②in one case ______________ ③travel off _____ ④be unique to ________ ⑤go beyond ____________ 互相 在某种情况下 出发 专属于 超越；胜过 三、析难句，破解阅读障碍 1．Only humans and chimps, she said, had a system of communication where they deliberately sent a message to another group member. 抓标志：插入语________，关系副词_______ 判类型：主句＋插入语＋定语从句 试翻译：她说，只有人类和黑猩猩有一种沟通系统，它们会有意地向另一个群体成员发送信息。 she said where 2．Although previous research has shown that apes and monkeys can understand complex information from another animal's call, the animals do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. 抓标志：连接副词_________；从属连词_____ 判类型：让步状语从句(含一个宾语从句)＋主句 试翻译：尽管先前的研究表明猿和猴子可以从其他动物的叫声中理解复杂的信息，但动物似乎并不是有意用声音来交流信息。 although that 一、学经典句式，写美句子 句式1　部分否定 |解|读|规|则| (1)all, both, each, every, whole, entirely, everybody, everything, altogether, completely, always等代词、形容词和副词与否定词not连用，构成部分否定，表示“不都，并非都”。 (2)no one, none, neither, nobody, nothing, no, never, nowhere等表示否定意义的词与肯定谓语一起使用构成全部否定。 |习|练|规|则|　(变换句式) ①It's impossible for all the applicants to get the jobs, because all of them aren't fit for the jobs. →It's impossible for all the applicants to get the jobs, because . ②(2023·浙江1月高考)Students get to know plants in different ways beyond the classroom. → in the same way beyond the classroom. not all of them are fit for the jobs All students don't/Not all students get to know plants ③A recent survey shows that not all the students in our school take physical exercise in their spare time. →A recent survey shows that ______________________________ ____________________in their spare time. all the students in our school don't take physical exercise |应|用|写|美| ④(2022·全国乙卷书面表达)通过以上图表，可以看出并非所有学生都采用同一种方法学习英语。 According to the above graph, it can be seen that ______________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________. ⑤(话题写作之传统文化)并非每个学生都真正意识到尊重和传播中国传统文化的重要性。 ____________________________________________________________________of respecting and spreading traditional Chinese culture. not all of the students adopt the same approach to learning English/all of the students don't adopt the same approach to learning English Every student is not/Not every student is really aware of the importance 句式2　have＋宾语＋宾语补足语 |解|读|规|则| have在此处是使役动词，表示“使……发生/做，使……被做”，宾语补足语根据与宾语之间的逻辑关系使用do, doing, done。 (1)have＋宾语＋done sth.可以表示两种含义：“让别人做某事”或“遭遇到某种不幸”。 (2)have＋宾语＋do sth.“使/让……做某事”。 (3)have＋宾语＋doing sth.“使/让……持续做某事”。 (4)注意其他结构： have sth.to do　　 有某事要做(主语自己做) can't/couldn't have sb.doing sth. 不允许某人做某事(否定句) |习|练|规|则|　(变换句式) ①You can ask somebody to deliver food to you by using food delivery apps and sites. →You can to you by using food delivery apps and sites. ②I am going to see my son next week.Do you have anything that I can take to your son?

Virtually everyone gestures.Like words, gestures are fixed within cultures and accompany speech as a second channel of information.Subjects watch a film in which a cat runs but they are told to lie and say it jumps.They do so in words, while their hands make a running motion. Gesture isn't sign language.Sign languages have clearly defined words and grammar, and differ geographically just as spoken ones do.Professor Goldin-Meadow spends a lot of time on home sign — systems of signs typically developed by deaf children in hearing families who aren't exposed to a conventional sign language.Such children are essentially inventing rough but rich languages out of nothing, with features such as fixed word order and grammatical structures much like those in fully qualified languages. Returning to conventional gesture, the author keeps her focus on child development.Some students who fail at a tricky mathematics problem may gesture to indicate they begin to understand it; they should be taught differently from the ones whose gestures suggest that they are entirely at sea.Children who still use only one word at a time may combine a word and a gesture; this successfully predicts that two-word phrases are just around the corner.And those taught to move their hands about when discussing a moral question from several angles soon start to see the problem from different points of view. The final section of the book offers practical advice.Teachers are encouraged to use gestures and to observe those their students make.Parents are taught to fill in the word a child misses when they gesture rather than adding information.Those who gesture less are more likely to need early intervention.Doctors can be trained to look out for gestures meaning that patients are thinking something they aren't ready to say. √ 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Susan Goldin-Meadow在她的新书《用手思考》中所总结的人们如何在说话中使用手势及相关建议。 1．What does the text show in paragraph 2? A．Every country has its own gestures. B．A lie detection is used in many areas. C．Cats are well skilled at using gestures. D．Gestures can reflect human real thoughts. 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“Subjects watch a film in which a cat runs but they are told to lie and say it jumps.They do so in words, while their hands make a running motion.”可知，实验对象虽然嘴上说猫在跳，但他们的手势反映了他们真实的想法，认为猫实际上是在跑。由此可知，手势能够反映人们的真实想法。故选D。 2．How do the deaf children communicate with family members according to paragraph 3? A．By home sign. B．By sign language. C．By spoken words. D．By written means. 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段“Professor Goldin-Meadow spends ...conventional sign language.”可知，失聪儿童是通过家庭手语与家人交流沟通的。故选A。 √ 3．Why should a teacher observe the kids' gestures in class? A．To predict the final outcome. B．To prevent kids from failure. C．To conduct the targeted teaching. D．To see the problems from all sides. 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段“Some students who fail at ...are entirely at sea.”可推知，教师可以通过观察学生的手势和姿态来了解他们对问题的理解程度，从而有的放矢，进行有针对性的教学。故选C。 √ 4．Where is the text most probably taken from? A．A guidebook to a language. B．An introduction to a book. C．An essay on the art of gesture. D．A review of sign language. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段“Susan Goldin-Meadow sums up how people use gestures with speech in her new book, Thinking With Your Hands.”、第四段“Returning to conventional gesture, the author keeps her focus on child development.”和最后一段“The final section of the book offers practical advice.”可知，本文主要介绍了Susan Goldin-Meadow的新书《用手思考》中所总结的人们如何在说话中使用手势及相关建议。由此推知，本文很可能摘自一本书的导言。故选B。 B (2025·保定一模)Politicians, business bosses, and other types of leaders indeed tend to like speaking with their hands, but does the habit influence how others interpret those words? To get to the bottom of it, a team of researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics conducted a series of experiments on volunteers who viewed videos of people speaking with and without hand movements. After showing the volunteers videos of people speaking under different conditions, the researchers asked them questions about what they had heard.Some conditions involved the speaker stressing different parts of words in a sentence.Other conditions involved the speaker making various types of hand gestures, such as pointing and sweeping movements.The team recorded the volunteers as they viewed the video recordings, questioning the volunteers afterward about what they had seen and heard. Researchers found that the volunteers were more affected by syllables (音节) spoken with the conjunction of hand gestures: In 20 percent of the cases, the viewers were more likely to have heard and interpreted the word spoken with a hand gesture.Interestingly, however, volunteers were 40 percent more likely to hear the wrong sound when a mismatch between the word spoken and the hand gesture occurred. Body language expert Carol Goman said, “Studies have found that speaking with your hands really can change the view of your character.People who communicate through active gesturing tend to be considered warm, agreeable, and energetic, while those who remain still are seen as logical, cold, and analytic.In fact, a 2015 study that studied TED Talks, which posts international talks online, found that the most popular speakers used nearly twice as many gestures as the least popular speakers used.” The research team said that their findings suggest that hand gestures are an important part of in-person communication that have a direct impact on what the listener hears.Furthermore, they suggest that our responses to hand gestures may be something we learn as we grow up. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。研究人员通过实验发现，在谈话中使用或不使用手势会对听众产生很大影响。 √ 5．What's the researchers' purpose of doing the experiments? A．To examine the volunteers' interpreting skills. B．Test the effect hand gestures have on speaking. C．To record the volunteers' questions for the speaker. D．To confirm the influence hand movements have on leaders. 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段“To get to the bottom ...without hand movements.”可知，研究人员做实验的目的是测试手势对说话的影响。故选B。 √ 6．What did the researchers find in the experiments? A．Hand movements affected what the listener heard. B．The speaker stressed different parts of words in a sentence. C．People speaking with different hand gestures had different effects. D．The most popular speakers used more gestures than the least popular speakers did. 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中“Interestingly, however, volunteers were 40 percent more likely to hear the wrong sound when a mismatch between the word spoken and the hand gesture occurred.”提到的当说的话和手势不匹配时，志愿者听到错误声音的可能性要高出40%。由此可知，研究人员在实验中发现手的动作会影响听者听到的内容。故选A。 √ 7．What does the underlined word “conjunction” mean in paragraph 3? A．Assistance. B．Combination. C．Disturbance. D．Interpretation. 解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“In 20 percent of the cases, the viewers were more likely to have heard and interpreted the word spoken with a hand gesture.”可推知，此处是指志愿者更容易受到与手势相结合的音节的影响，所以conjunction意为“结合”。故选B。 √ 8．What may the researchers agree with? A．Gestures can influence others' view on one's personality. B．Understanding gestures is a must in every language. C．In-person communication helps interpret gestures. D．Responses to gestures are learning behavior. 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Furthermore, they suggest that our responses to hand gestures may be something we learn as we grow up.”可推知，研究人员可能认同“对手势的反应是一种学习行为”的观点。故选D。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 What Does Our Body Language Reveal? Body language is very common in communication. 9 People tend to judge us far more on our physical appearance, including our mannerisms, than by what comes out of our mouths.To give the right impression, it's important to understand what we are conveying non-verbally and how our unconscious signals are being received by the people we interact with. Smiling is a powerful tool in your body language collection.Perhaps you smile a lot in the hope of appearing friendly. 10 In some Asian cultures, smiling too much is seen as a signal that you're not a serious person and may lose you some respect. If you're trying to hide nervousness you'd better avoid smiling too much, too.Also be aware that nervous people often hug themselves, rub their forehead, and shift their body weight from one foot to another to create a slight rocking motion. 11 If you're trying to show that you are listening sympathetically to what someone has to say, try tipping your head slightly and nodding very slightly.This gesture implies you are listening with interest.If you're talking to someone and a third person joins, turn your body towards them slightly to include them and make them feel valued. 12 A single nod of the head is also a strong gesture of coolness when listening to another person. To build trust quickly? Try mirroring.Adopting a similar stance (站姿) to the person you are engaged with indicates your interest and helps develop trust.Use this with caution, though. 13 Mirroring only works when they don't realize what you're doing. A．Don't obviously copy your companion. B．Our body language speaks volumes about us. C．Control these habits to appear more composed. D．Our body language barely overshadows our verbal communication. E．Just be aware that it might make you seem less professional at work. F．We tend to position our body and feet toward the person of interest to us. G．By contrast, a failure to angle your body towards them implies “unwelcome”． 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一些常见的肢体语言所代表的含义。 9．选B　后文提到人们会通过举止来判断我们，说明肢体语言能反应我们自身。故B选项符合语境。 10．选E　下文“In some Asian cultures, smiling too much is seen as a signal that you're not a serious person and may lose you some respect.”主要说明了经常微笑的负面影响。故E选项“只是要知道，这可能会让你在工作中显得不那么专业”符合语境。 11．选C　上文主要列举了一些表现出紧张的举动，设空处为本段最后一句，应与建议控制这些习惯有关。故C选项符合语境。 12．选G　上文“If you're ...turn your body towards them slightly to include them and make them feel valued.”提到身体朝向某人会让对方感到被重视，下文“also a strong gesture of coolness”是与上文表示进一步的情况相反，由此可知设空处意在说明相反的情况。故G选项符合语境。 13．选A　后文“Mirroring only works when they don't realize what you're doing.”提到了有效的模仿，推测本句是在对模仿他人提出建议，A选项中copy对应后文Mirroring。故A选项“不要明显地模仿你的同伴”符合语境。 Ⅲ.完形填空 (2025·乌鲁木齐一模)Peter walked home from school.Salty tears ran down his cheeks.He didn't know what to do.Grandma saw him and asked why.Peter replied, “I have to give a(n) 14 about a family tradition.I know we have lots of beliefs and customs.Can you 15 me of one？” Grandma smiled and nodded her head.She went to a closet and 16 to reach the top shelf.Pulling out a small box and 17 the dust, she handed it to Peter.Peter opened the box.He 18 a wooden hoop with string woven and twisted around.It was in the shape of a circle, like a spider web.Peter wiped away his 19 and smiled. “This is a dream catcher，” said Grandma.“Our people have made these for many years. 20 are symbols of unity and strength.Hang it over your bed and it will 21 your bad dreams in the web, and your good dreams will fall through the center.Maybe it will give you 22 to do your presentation.” “Can I take this one to school？” asked Peter.“No，” said Grandma.“This dream catcher is 23 .
