三、阅读理解(每小题 2 分,共 20 分)阅读短文,选择最佳答案。
(A)
Online communication has become part of daily life, but it often causes misunderstandings. Here are some tips to communicate better online:
First, think before you type. Unlike face-to-face talks, online messages can't show your tone or facial expressions. If you write in all capital letters, others may think you're angry. Take time to check your words before sending.
Second, use emojis properly. Emojis can help show your feelings. A smiley face can make your message friendlier, but don't use too many. If you're discussing something serious, emojis might make you seem unprofessional.
Third, respond in time. If someone messages you, try to reply within a day. People may feel ignored if you keep them waiting. But if you need more time to think, you can say, “I'll reply properly later.”
Finally, know when to talk in person. Some serious conversations are better face-to-face. If you have a conflict online, suggest a video call or meeting. You'll understand each other better with body language.
( )26. Why do online messages often cause misunderstandings?
A. They can't show tone or expressions.
B. People type too fast.
C. Emojis are overused.
( )27. What might happen if you write in all capital letters?
A. Others will think you're friendly.
B. Others may think you're angry.
C. Others will ignore your message.
( )28. How can emojis help online communication?
A. They make serious topics funny.
B. They show feelings clearly.
C. They replace proper words.
( )29. When should you have face-to-face talks instead of online?
A. When sending daily greetings.
B. When discussing serious problems.
C. When sharing happy news.
( )30. What's the best title for the passage?
A. The Dangers of Online Chatting
B. Tips for Better Online Communication
C. How to Use Emojis Properly
(B)
When we communicate, our words are only part of the message. Body language plays an important role in how others understand us.
Eye contact is one key part. If you look someone in the eyes while talking, they'll feel you're sincere. But staring too long can make people uncomfortable. A good rule is to look away occasionally.
Facial expressions also matter. A smile shows friendliness, but a forced smile can be noticed. If you're listening, nod your head sometimes to show you're paying attention.
Posture is important too. Standing straight with shoulders back shows confidence. Crossing your arms may make you seem closed off. Leaning forward a little when listening shows you're interested.
Remember, body language should match your words. If you say “I'm happy” but frown, people won't believe you. Paying attention to your body language can help you communicate better.
( )31. What role does body language play in communication?
A. It's less important than words.
B. It helps others understand us better.
C. It replaces verbal communication.
( )32. How should you use eye contact when talking?
A. Stare at the other person all the time.
B. Look away occasionally.
C. Avoid looking at the person.
( )33. What does nodding your head show when listening?
A. You're getting bored.
B. You're paying attention.
C. You disagree.
( )34. What posture shows confidence?
A. Standing straight with shoulders back.
B. Crossing your arms.
C. Leaning backward.
( )35. What's the main idea of the passage?
A. How to improve verbal communication.
B. The importance of body language in communication.
C. Different cultures have different body language.
