Section Ⅰ　Listening and Speaking & Reading and Thinking (Ⅰ)

LISTENING TO HOW BODIES TALK [1]

We use both words and body language to express our thoughts and opinions in our interactions with other people. We can learn a lot about what people are thinking by watching their body language. Words are important, but the way people stand, hold their arms, and move their hands.　[2] can also give us information about their feelings.

[1][标题赏析]本标题采用拟人的写作手法，不仅能够吸引读者，还深度契合文章主题——肢体语言的作用。

[2]people stand...move their hands 为省略了先行词that 的定语从句，修饰先行词the way。

Just like spoken language, body language  varies from culture to culture. The crucial thing is using body language in a way that is appropriate to the culture you are in. For example, making eye contact－looking into someone's eyes－in some countries is a way to display interest. In other countries,  by contrast, eye contact is not always approved of. For example, in many Middle Eastern countries, men and women are not socially permitted to make eye contact. In Japan, it may demonstrate  respect to look down　 [3] when talking to an older person.

[3]该句中it 为形式主语，真正的主语为动词不定式短语to look down。

The gesture for “OK” has different meanings in different cultures. In Japan, someone who witnesses another person employing the gesture might think it means money. In France, a person encountering an identical gesture may  interpret it as meaning zero. However, you should avoid making this gesture in Brazil and Germany, as it is not considered polite　 [4]．

[4]as在此引导原因状语从句。

Even the gestures we use for “yes” and “no” differ around the world. In many countries, shaking one's head means “no”， and nodding means “yes.” By comparison, in Bulgaria and southern Albania, the gestures have the opposite meaning. There are also differences in how we touch each other, how close we stand to someone we are talking to, and how we act when we meet or part　 [5]. In countries like France and Russia, people may kiss their friends on the cheek　 [6] when they meet. Elsewhere, people favour shaking hands,  bowing from the waist, or nodding the head when they meet someone else.

[5]本句为there be 句型，其中包含三个并列的由how 引导的宾语从句，作介词in的宾语。 在第二个宾语从句中，we are talking to 为省略了关系词that 的定语从句，修饰先行词someone；第三个宾语从句中包含一个when 引导的时间状语从句。

[6]画线部分为“及物动词＋sb.＋介词＋the＋ 表示身体部位的名词”结构

Some gestures seem to have same meaning everywhere. Placing your hands together and resting them on the side of your head while closing your eyes means “sleep.”　[7] A good way of saying “I am full” is moving your hand in circles over your stomach after a meal.

[7] Placing...and resting...while closing your eyes 为并列的v.ing 短语作主语，表示一个完整的动作，故谓语动词用单数形式。

Some body language has many different uses. Perhaps the best example is smiling. A smile can help us get through difficult situations and find friends in a world of strangers. A smile can break down barriers. We can use a smile to apologise, to greet someone, to ask for help, or to start a conversation. Experts suggest smiling at yourself in the mirror to make yourself feel happier and stronger. And if we are feeling down or lonely, there is nothing better than seeing the smiling face of a good friend　 [8]．

[8]nothing better than...good friend 为“否定词＋比较级”结构，表达最高级含义。

倾听身体的语言

在与他人交往的过程中， 我们会使用口头和肢体语言来表达我们的想法和观点。通过观察肢体语言，我们能够了解人们的很多想法。言语很重要，不过人们站立、抱臂和移动双手的方式也能向我们传达他们的感受。

就像口头语言一样，不同文化里的肢体语言也各不相同。关键在于， 要采用你所处文化里得当的肢体语言。例如，进行眼神交流——直视某人的眼睛——在一些国家，是表达兴趣的一种方式。相比之下，在其他国家，眼神交流并不总是被接受的。例如， 在许多中东国家， 不允许男性和女性在社交场合进行眼神交流。 在日本，与年纪较长者交谈时，眼神向下看可能表示尊重。

“OK” 手势在不同文化中有不同含义。在日本，看到别人做这个手势的人可能以为这表示“钱”。在法国，面对同样的手势，人们会将其理解为“零”的意思。然而，在巴西和德国都要避免使用该手势，因为它带有不礼貌的含义。

甚至世界各地用来表示“是”和“不” 的姿势也不尽相同。在很多国家，摇头表示“不”，点头表示“是”。相较之下，在保加利亚和阿尔巴尼亚南部，这两个姿势的含义正好相反。我们如何触碰对方，说话时与对方之间的距离，见面或分别时的表现，也都各不相同。在法国和俄罗斯等国家，朋友见面时可能会亲吻脸颊，在其他地方，人们遇到他人时，则较喜欢握手、弯腰鞠躬或点头。

有些手势似乎在各地都有着同样的意义。双手合十放在头部的一边同时闭上眼睛，表示“睡觉”。吃完饭以后，用手在腹部打圈， 是一种很好的表达“我吃饱了”的方式。

有些肢体语言有着许多不同的用途，最好的例子可能就是微笑了。微笑能够帮我们渡过难关， 在全是陌生人的世界里交到朋友。微笑可以消除隔阂。我们可以用微笑来道歉，向人问好， 寻求帮助或开启对话。专家建议对镜子中的自己微笑，让自己感觉更加幸福、更加坚强。如果我们感到心情低落或孤独，没有什么比看到一个好朋友的笑颜更好的了。
