(2025·广东东莞高二上期中)Suppose you are out shopping and come across a friend who starts telling you a story that seems to be dragging on and on.You want to seem interested, so you offer the occasional “Oh” or “I see”.To your surprise, though, this person angrily stops in his tracks and says, “Sorry if I'm boring you!”
Where did this come from? Clearly, your body language must have betrayed (出卖) you.The idea that verbal and nonverbal messages can conflict was the inspiration for a recently published study from Yale University's Lucylle Armentano.As part of her study of communication in relationships, Armentano's research also examined communication channels in people meeting for the first time.
To test the role of a mismatch between verbal messages and nonverbal messages on emotional communication, Armentano and her partner created experimental conditions to see what happens when someone asks for help from strangers.The research team created videotapes of a Yale student expressing nervousness in his words, with gestures, or both.The gestures included running his hands through his hair, grabbing his arms, and facially expressing uneasiness.The key question was whether the other participants, another 82 Yale students, would believe the student and provide the help he was requesting.They needed to give their responses.
Turning to the findings, those nonverbal cues (线索) for nervousness had a greater impact on helping behavior than the verbal cues.Surprisingly, helping behavior was the highest when verbal expressions of nervousness were low but nonverbal cues were high.
Recognizing that your body language can outweigh your words means that you need to be mindful of what your body is doing when you're interacting with others.Generally, when someone is speaking to you, you want to look like you're interested.Not only should you maintain eye contact, but you should keep your body still and face toward that person.If you're not trying to look interested, it may be more polite to say you have to be somewhere else.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是耶鲁大学的Lucylle Armentano最近发表了一份研究报告,研究表明与人互动时,你的肢体语言可以胜过你的口头语言。

(2025·新疆阿勒泰高二上检测)Body language is a fascinating aspect of human communication that often speaks louder than words.It is a silent form of expression that conveys our thoughts, emotions, and intentions.I have always been amazed by the way our bodies can communicate without uttering a single word.
One vivid memory that comes to my mind is a job interview I had a few years ago.As I sat across from the interviewer, I could feel my body tensing up.I crossed my arms and leaned back in my chair, unconsciously acting as a defensive barrier.The interviewer picked up on my closedoff posture and became more reserved in his questioning.It was clear that my body language was sending a message of discomfort and lack of confidence.
Reflecting on that experience, I realized the importance of using open and confident body language in professional settings.Subtle (微妙的) changes in posture, facial expressions, and gestures can significantly impact the impression we make on others.From that day forward, I made a conscious effort to project confidence and approachability (平易近人) through my body language.
Another instance where body language played a crucial role was during a family gathering.As we sat around the dinner table, I noticed my younger sister slumping and avoiding eye contact with anyone.Her body language indicated that she was feeling upset or anxious.Without saying a word, I reached out and gently touched her hand, offering a silent gesture of support.She looked at me with gratitude, and we shared a moment of the understanding and connection.
Body language is important not only in interpersonal relationships but also in public speaking.I remember watching a TED talk by a renowned speaker who captivated the audience with his confident stance, expressive gestures, and engaging eye contact.His body language promoted the impact of his words, making the talk more memorable and powerful.
In conclusion, body language is a powerful tool that can convey emotions, attitudes, and intentions without the need for verbal communication.It is essential to be aware of our own body language and its impact on others.By mastering the art of body language, we can promote our communication skills and create stronger connections with those around us.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了肢体语言在沟通中的重要性,通过个人经历强调了非言语交流的影响。
4.What is the author's main purpose in sharing the job interview experience?
A.To emphasize the significance of facial expressions in communication.
B.To describe a personal experience of discomfort and lack of confidence.
C.To demonstrate the impact of body language on interpersonal relationships.
D.To highlight the importance of nonverbal communication in professional settings.
解析:选D。推理判断题。由文章第二段和第三段中“Reflecting on that experience, I realized the importance of using open and confident body language in professional settings.Subtle (微妙的) changes in posture, facial expressions, and gestures can significantly impact the impression we make on others.”可知,作者分享那次面试经历的主要目的是强调在非语言沟通(即肢体语言)在专业场合中的重要性。故选D。

A.Criticized. B.Fascinated.
C.Distracted. D.Confused.

7.What is the structure of the passage?
解析:选A。推理判断题。通读全文,由文章第一段“Body language is a fascinating aspect of human communication that often speaks louder than words.”可知,文章第一段引出话题,即身体语言是人类交流的一个迷人方面,往往比言语更有说服力。作者通过第二段介绍自己的面试经历,第三段承接第二段,对此经历进行反思,强调了肢体语言在专业场合中的重要性;第四段通过家庭聚会的例子,进一步说明肢体语言的作用;第五段通过TED演讲的例子,说明肢体语言在公共演讲中的重要性;即2-5段举例说明。最后一段进行总结,再次强调肢体语言的作用。因此,文章的结构为“引出话题—举例说明—总结”。故选A。

(2025·山西阳泉高二上期中)People often use body language to decode (解读) lying.People may say one thing and be signaling another, so body language is a useful way to find out the truth.One of the ways to show someone is lying is blinking: The idea is that blinking faster indicates a potential lie.
So, is blink rate a reliable indicator of how likely the person is to be telling the truth? What does the research show?
Researchers studied competitors on a TV quiz show in 2023.The research demonstrates beautifully the danger in identifying specific physical responses as “tells” of a particular thought or intention.First of all, people do blink faster under stress.But that simply indicates a stress response, not a declaration (声明) of the intention behind the stress.Moreover, it turns out that blinking also slows when you are thinking hard and can speed up when you are signaling that you are hearing a question or getting ready to give an answer.
In this way, blinking is like so many other individual bits of body language: It is multidetermined.We may cross our arms because we're defensive or because we're tired, cold, or ready to quit.
But in more familiar relationships in the workplace or beyond, most humans are reasonably good at reading the signals of people whom they know well—longtime colleagues, friends, family, especially when they are moved by a strong emotion.For example, when your husband runs into the house excited about a raise, you can pick up that something good is going on.That's because you know how that person normally acts, and thus spotting a change from the norm is relatively easy and reliable.
Rather than trying to make a list of tells, seek to understand people in your world by paying attention to both what they say and how they say it.Over time, you can become a reliable reader of the body language of the people you live and work with.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了如何有效解读肢体语言,并指出了其局限性。
8.What is the purpose of the research?
A.To illustrate why people see body language as “tells”.
B.To present the relation between blinking and telling lies.
C.To figure out under what circumstances people blink faster.
D.To prove whether a certain physical response can clearly indicate someone's intention.
解析:选D。推理判断题。由文章第二段“So, is blink rate a reliable indicator of how likely the person is to be telling the truth? What does the research show?”和第三段中“Researchers studied competitors on a TV quiz show in 2023.The research demonstrates beautifully the danger in identifying specific physical responses as ‘tells’ of a particular thought or intention.”可知,研究的目的是证明某种身体反应是否能清楚地表明某人的意图。故选D。
9.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Hard to predict.
B.Difficult to make sense.
C.Caused by many reasons.
D.Easy to be influenced by surroundings.
解析:选C。词句猜测题。由文章第四段“In this way, blinking is like so many other individual bits of body language: It is multidetermined.We may cross our arms because we're defensive or because we're tired, cold, or ready to quit.”可知,眨眼是由多种原因引起的。multidetermined意为“原因很多,由多种原因引起”。故选C。
10.What does the example in the last but one paragraph show?
A.People tend to be moved by their family.
B.Body language can be interpreted easily in close relations.
C.Reading body language doesn't work in unfamiliar relationships.

B.How to Tell a Lie through Body Language
C.The Misunderstanding on Mastering Body Language
D.Why Cannot Body Language Reflect a Person's Real Intention?

(2025·河北衡水期中)“Tie an Italian's hands behind his back, and he'll be speechless.” This old joke conveys a rigid image of Italians: they are talkative and emotional, and all their arm movements supposedly go to prove it.
Susan GoldinMeadow of the University of Chicago has a rather different view.Emotions come out in lots of ways: facial expressions, posture, tone of voice and so on.But people are doing something different when they use gestures with speech, which she sums up in the title of her new book, “Thinking With Your Hands”.
In fact, everyone gestures, not just Italians.Conference interpreters gesture in their little rooms, though no one is looking.People born blind gesture when they speak, including to each other.All this suggests that cognition (认知) is, to some extent, “embodied (具体化)”, thinking is not all done in your head.Gestures that accompany speech are a second channel of information.People who say they believe in gender equality (男女平等) but gesture with their hands lower are not indicating women's shorter height; they can be shown to have prejudices (偏见) of which they may not be aware.
Child development is the focus of GoldinMeadow's book.Some students who fail at a difficult mathematics problem may gesture in a way that indicates they are on the point of understanding it.They should be taught differently from the ones whose gestures suggest that they are entirely at sea.GoldinMeadow believes that gesturing could play a larger role in education by addressing the student's needs better.
This is well explained in the book's last section.Teachers are encouraged both to use gestures themselves and to observe those their students make.Parents are taught to fill in the word a child is most likely to be missing when they gesture rather than adding information.Children with language delays caused by brain injuries at birth, but who gesture as much as their peers (同龄人), are likely to catch up verbally by the age of about 30 months.Those who gesture less are more likely to need early intervention.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Susan GoldinMeadow的一本新书,作者在书中论述了她对人们说话时的手势的研究成果。
12.Why is the joke mentioned in the first paragraph?
A.To show that Italians are talkative and emotional.
B.To set a humorous tone for this article.
C.To illustrate the relationship between gestures and speech.
D.To correct people's wrong impression of Italians.
解析:选C。推理判断题。根据第一段“‘Tie an Italian's hands behind his back, and he'll be speechless.’This old joke conveys a rigid image of Italians: they are talkative and emotional, and all their arm movements supposedly go to prove it.”、第二段中的“Susan GoldinMeadow of the University of Chicago has a rather different view.”和“But people are doing something different when they use gestures with speech”可知,作者先介绍了关于意大利人的笑话,显示出他们的手势和语言紧密相关,然后引出了第二段Susan对此不同的观点。由此推知,笑话是为了说明手势和语言之间的关系。故选C。
13.What does the author want to say by mentioning people talking about gender equality?
A.People's gestures show the meaning of people's speech.
B.Gestures help the speaker tell lies more easily.
C.People use gestures to hide their real intentions.
D.Gestures can express what the speaker really thinks.
解析:选D。推理判断题。根据第三段中“People who say they believe in gender equality (男女平等) but gesture with their hands lower are not indicating women's shorter height; they can be shown to have prejudices (偏见) of which they may not be aware.”可推知,作者想通过提到谈论性别平等的人来说明,手势可以表达说话人的真实想法。故选D。
14.What do the underlined words “at sea” mean in Paragraph 4?
A.Nervous. B.Confused.
C.Incapable. D.Frightened.
解析:选B。词句猜测题。根据画线部分的上文“Some students who fail at a difficult mathematics problem may gesture in a way that indicates they are on the point of understanding it.They should be taught differently from the ones”可知,前面提到的学生并非完全不理解难题,因此此处指对待他们的方式与那些完全不懂的学生应有所区别,画线部分应该与Confused“困惑的”意思一致。故选B。
15.What does GoldinMeadow offer in the last section of her book?
A.Practical advice.
B.Educational theory.
C.Reliable proofs.
D.Research conclusions.
解析:选A。细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Teachers are encouraged both to use gestures themselves and to observe those their students make.Parents are taught to fill in the word a child is most likely to be missing when they gesture rather than adding information.”和“Those who gesture less are more likely to need early intervention.”可知,GoldinMeadow在书的最后一节提供了实用的建议。故选A。

If you struggle to meet new people or join in a conversation at social events, it might be that your body language is sending the message to others to stay away.How can you improve your body language to appear more approachable? Below are some tips to get you started.
Smile.Although it is possible to overdo smiling, generally it is better to smile than frown (皱眉).16( ), and your smile will come across as natural rather than forced.
Avoid blocks.Make sure that you aren't using objects to shield (遮住) yourself from others.At a party, hold your drink at your side instead of close to your chest (胸膛).17( )

19( ) Even though you might be nervous, avoid the habits that go with it.Stop touching your face or playing with your hair.Don't play with your pen or the change in your pocket.Keep your hands relaxed at your sides or use them to gesture when making conversation.
Apart from body language, always be positive. 20( ).Approach others and include those who seem to be left out.Be a positive person and you will attract other positive people to you.

第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Language is an important aspect of human society, serving 36 a tool for communication, expression, and the preservation of culture.While most people associate language with verbal expressions, the reality is that language includes a much broader range, including music and body language.These forms of nonverbal communication are just as 37 (power) as spoken words.Music, often 38 (refer) to as the universal language, goes beyond cultural and linguistic barriers.It is a form of nonverbal communication, 39 creates connections between people.The rhythm and melody in music can express joy, sadness, excitement or peace without the need for words.Moreover, music 40 (use) as a means of storytelling for a long time.
Body language is another form of nonverbal communication.It involves the use of body postures, gestures, facial expressions and eye movements to convey messages.Body language can reveal a person's emotions, attitudes and intentions without saying 41 single word.For example, a smile can indicate 42
(happy), while crossed arms might signal defensiveness or discomfort.Cultural differences can 43
(significant) influence the understanding of body language, making it important to understand the context in which these nonverbal cues are given.
In conclusion, language is a multifaceted (多方面的) phenomenon that goes beyond mere words.It includes the universal resonance of music and the silent expression of body language.44 (know) these different forms of communication enriches our understanding of the world and allows us 45 (connect) with others on a deeper level.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了语言不仅包括口头表达,还包括音乐和肢体语言等非言语交流形式。
36.解析:as。考查介词。句意:语言是人类社会的一个重要方面,是交流、表达和文化保护的工具。根据空前serving和空后a tool for communication可知,本题考查serve as,为固定短语,意为“作为”。故填as。
37.解析:powerful。考查形容词。句意:这些非言语交流的形式和言语一样有力。根据空前are just as和空后as spoken words可知,as...as中间用形容词或副词原级,此处指“有力的”,应用形容词powerful作表语。故填powerful。
38.解析:referred。考查非谓语动词。句意:音乐,通常被称为世界语言,超越了文化和语言的障碍。refer在句中应用非谓语动词形式作定语,与逻辑主语Music构成被动关系,所以用过去分词作定语。故填referred。
39.解析:which。考查定语从句。句意:它是一种非言语交流的形式,能在人与人之间建立联系。空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a form of nonverbal communication。先行词指物,且关系词在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
40.解析:has been used。考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:此外,音乐长期以来一直也被用于讲故事。空处为句子的谓语动词,根据时间状语for a long time可知,句子应用现在完成时态,主语music与谓语构成被动关系,所以用现在完成时的被动语态,助动词用has。故填has been used。
41.解析:a。考查冠词。句意:肢体语言可以在不说一个单词的情况下揭示一个人的情绪、态度和意图。根据空后single word可知,此处表示泛指“一个单词”,应用不定冠词,且single是发音以辅音音素开头的单词,所以应用不定冠词a。故填a。
42.解析:happiness。考查名词。句意:例如,微笑可以表示快乐,而双臂交叉可能表示防御或不适。根据空前indicate可知,空处需用名词作宾语,此处表示“快乐”,应用名词happiness,是不可数名词。故填happiness。
43.解析:significantly。考查副词。句意:文化差异可以极大地影响人们对肢体语言的理解,因此了解这些非言语暗示所处的背景很重要。根据空前can和空后influence可知,空处需用副词significantly修饰动词influence作状语。故填significantly。
44.解析:Knowing/To know。考查非谓语动词。句意:了解这些不同的交流方式丰富了我们对世界的理解,并允许我们在更深层次上与他人建立联系。空处在句中作主语,应用动名词形式或者是动词不定式形式,句首单词首字母要大写。故填Knowing/To know。
45.解析:to connect。考查非谓语动词。句意:了解这些不同的交流方式丰富了我们对世界的理解,并允许我们在更深层次上与他人建立联系。allow sb to do sth为固定短语,意为“允许某人做某事”,空处需用不定式作宾语补足语。故填to connect。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“The cleaners said I could pick our stuff today,” Jet's mom said on the drive to school.
“Do you think they were able to clean Big Dog?” Jet asked, trying not to sound too worried.
But he was worried.Big Dog was his favourite stuffed animal.Grandpa had won it for him at the fair when he was five years old.Jet was eight now, and he didn't need to sleep with it or anything.But he did need it.He needed it to sit on the shelf above his bed—the shelf that was now charred (烧焦的) by the house fire.
“I'm not sure what they were able to save,” Mom said.“They said they weren't able to save our photo albums.I sure will miss those pictures.” Jet could tell she was really sad.
“I'll pick you up after school, and we'll go through the boxes together.Then we'll see if your Big Dog can come back to us.” Mom said before she hugged him goodbye and drove off.
Jet tried to focus on his schoolwork all day, but he couldn't keep his mind off Big Dog.He clutched (紧抓) his backpack through the halls as if he were carrying his old stuffed friend.During library time, he checked out a book about dogs.At break time, his friends were playing games while his mind was completely occupied by Big Dog.
RRRRRRINNNGGG!Time for art class.
Mr.Light said it was “artist's choice” day, so they could work on whatever they wished.
Jet stared at an empty page.He thought of his mom picking up the boxes of things that had been damaged by the fire.Then he remembered how sad his mom was about the photo albums.Most things could be replaced at the store.But the pictures were gone forever.If only the photo album could somehow be saved, Jet thought.He wished there was a way to get those memories back, to bring a smile to his mom's face again.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Then, all of a sudden, he knew what he could draw.
Jet gave his mom a huge hug, and said, “I have a surprise for you too!”.
[参考范文]
Then, all of a sudden, he knew what he could draw.He started with a picture of himself opening presents in front of a Christmas tree.Then one of him and his mom camping.Then there was one of Grandpa, standing tall and smiling, holding out a stuffed toy—Big Dog.The lines of Big Dog came easily, as if Jet had memorized every detail.By the time class was over, Jet had a small album stretched out and was ready to surprise her mom.When Jet's mom picked him up from school, however, Jet's eyes were caught by Big Dog in the back seat.He squeezed Big Dog around the neck and hugged it tightly, feeling the familiar softness against his cheek.But then, something inside him shifted.He remembered the album in his backpack.
Jet gave his mom a huge hug, and said, “I have a surprise for you too!” Digging into his backpack, Jet pulled out the small album.“I know we lost a lot of things in the fire, and the photo albums were really special to you.” he said in a soft voice.As Jet's mom flipped through the pictures, she laughed and cried.There she saw the drawings of their favorite memories.Each picture captured a moment they had shared, a moment they thought they'd lost in the fire.That night, after they unpacked more of the boxes, Jet carefully placed Big Dog back on the shelf above his bed.Maybe the fire had taken some things, but it hadn't taken what mattered most—their love, their memories, and the chance to keep making new ones.
