Ramla Ali, Somali-born boxer, model and ambassador of United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) , has spent her life fighting, first for survival, then for change. From escaping Somalia’s civil war to stepping into the Olympic ring, she’s turned her own story of struggle into a powerful mission to uplift others. Following her brother’s death in the chaos of war, Ali and her family spent a year as refugees (难民) before resettling in London, where Ali chanced upon boxing. What began as a means to prevent herself from being bullied has matured into both a lifelong calling and a source of comfort and a passion. Her amateur career saw her claim England’s National, Great British, and 2019 African Zone Featherweight titles. In 2021 she made history as Somalia’s first Olympic boxer, a symbol of perseverance and determination. Guided by the belief “You can’t be what you can’t see — if people witness my journey, they may dare to dream too”, Ali journeyed back to Kenya and visited the Dadaab refugee camp with UNICEF in 2025, during which she joined the Kasarani Sasa recycling group, a collective of over 200 refugee women waste pickers, helping sort plastic and cardboard. The program provides childcare, informal education for kids and safe income for struggling mothers. “Witnessing the things firsthand struck me. This could have been me, had I not left. It’s heartbreaking — you want to help everyone, but there’re so many,” Ali said. At FilmAid Kenya, a learning program teaching the young displaced filmmaking and storytelling, Ali shared how education transformed her life with the students, many of whom dreamed of careers in medicine or psychology, despite hardships. Though moved by a teenager who desired to be a film director after her first exposure to a camera, Ali feared the program, a lifeline for refugee children’s dreams, was at risk from global aid cuts. Deeply concerned about this, Ali partnered with UNICEF to provide sustained financial backing for refugee children’s education. Meanwhile, she’s expanded her free women’s boxing club worldwide. She made an appeal, saying “If my story can help just one girl see hope, my efforts will be fully worth it.” Ali’s power as a role model stimulates numerous disadvantaged youth’s ambition, lifting them out of despair and into dignity. 24．(0分)What initially drew Ramla Ali to boxing? A．The need for self- defense. B．The desire for pleasure. C．The pursuit of an athletic career. D．The influence of her brother. 25．What did Ali do in 2025? A．She set up a recycling program for refugee women. B．She collected waste materials for UNICEF in person. C．She organized childcare services in the Dadaab camp. D．She dedicated herself to a women’s recycling group in Kenya. 26．What was Ali’s major concern about the program FilmAid Kenya? A．Qualification. B．Accessibility. C．Funding. D．Equipment. 27．Which of the following best summarizes Ramla Ali’s life journey? A．From a refugee to an advocate. B．From isolation to connection. C．From ignorance to wisdom. D．From a victim to a victor. （本题10分）We all know that a powerful body posture may help people feel more confident. But will it work on students? A new study by researchers from the Martin Luther University (MLU) of Halle-Wittenberg is carried out to find the connection. And it does provide evidence that simple body postures can help students feel better in school. Some body postures don’t need further explanation. When a man sits with his arms crossed behind his head, resting his feet on a table, he is probably feeling very self-confident. Arms folded in front of one’s body and a bent back, on the other hand, typically mean anxiety and insecurity. “Body language is not just about expressing feelings, it can also have a great influence on how a person feels,” explains Robert Körner from the Institute of Psychology at MLU. Research on powerful body postures tries to find out the extent to which a certain body posture might influence a person’s feelings and self-confidence. Up to now, most of the research has been about studying the effects on adults. Körner’s study is the first to examine children. “Children from the age of five are able to recognize and understand the body postures of others,” the professor adds. The researchers carried out their experiment with 108 fourth graders. One group was to assume two open postures for one minute each. The other group posed with their arms folded in front of them and their heads down. The children then finished a series of psychological tests. The children who had assumed an open posture showed better moods and reported higher self-confidence than the children in the other group. The effects were particularly manifest when it came to questions concerning school. “Here, powerful body postures had the strongest effect on the children’s self-confidence,” says Körner. “Teachers could try and see whether this method helps their students.” However, Körner states that expectations about this technique should be mild. The effects were only short-term. Serious problems or mental illness must be treated by trained professionals. 28．(2.5分)How does Körner feel about the short-term effects of powerful postures? A．He thinks they are useless. B．He believes they are significant enough for teachers to adopt in class. C．He argues they are too strong and harmful. D．He claims they last for years. 29．(2.5分)What is the new research on powerful body postures mainly about? A．What the most popular postures are. B．How children’s postures differ from adults’. C．Why body language can express a person’s feelings. D．What effects postures have on students’ feelings. 30．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “manifest” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Strange. B．Obvious. C．Unclear. D．Manageable. 31．(2.5分)What is Körner’s attitude to teachers’ applying the findings in teaching? A．Worried. B．Doubtful. C．Objective. D．Supportive. （本题10分）Since ancient times, humans have sought ways to detect deception (欺骗). Physical punishment was once useful but later rejected as victims would lie to end pain. This led to the search for non-forceful method, giving rise to the study of body language, that is, the nonverbal clues that may reveal deception. Observing changes in body language is as important as the actual gestures themselves. When a person is asked to talk about something they want to avoid, they may slide backward into the chair they are sitting in. I have seen people slide the entire chair backward against a wall to create distance. Crossing the legs or arms is an unconscious defensive gesture that might indicate deception. If the interviewer gives hypothetical motives or excuses for an incident, the interviewee will frequently nod the head up and down in agreement. On the other hand, forced efforts to maintain eye contact or intentionally invading the personal space of the interviewer might indicate an effort to appear truthful when telling a lie. While observing body language can be a good investigative tool, I feel the necessity to make this point. Body language is not an exact science. It is a good tool to show you are on the right track. However, there are various reasons why it might not be accurate. People from different cultures have gestures that might indicate deception when it is just a normal gesture. People with mental health or drug issues might give indicators that give you the wrong idea. In certain cultures, people are taught not to make eye contact with an authority figure such as a police officer or your boss. However, a person doing that might just be nervous or suffer from some type of PTSD (创伤后应激障碍). My advice is to try and know your subject. Try to know how they react during normal conversation and be familiar with their culture and how they were raised. Never pass judgement on body language alone. It is just one piece of the investigative puzzle. 32．(2.5分)What is the function of paragraph 1? A．To introduce the topic of body language. B．To trace the development of detection methods. C．To recommend the use of a non-forceful method. D．To explain the abandonment of physical punishment. 33．(2.5分)What does the gesture of sliding back into the chair indicate? A．Feeling fear. B．Avoiding a topic. C．Expressing agreement. D．Hiding the truth. 34．(2.5分)How does the author support the point that body language might not be accurate? A．By using statistical data from research papers. B．By providing a series of explanatory statements. C．By questioning the morality of using body language. D．By comparing body language across different cultures. 35．(2.5分)What is the best title for the text? A．Body Language: Not an Exact Science for Lie Detection B．Detected Deception: Why Body Language Always Works C．Body Language: The Most Reliable Way to Detect Deception D．Detected Deception: Limitations of Nonverbal Communication （本题12.5分）Communication begins long before you open your mouth. The way you stand, the position of your arms, and your facial expressions all tell a story that can be read immediately. By adopting the following habits, you can project confidence, openness, and charm with your nonverbal cues. 36(2.5分) When you are truly engaged in a movie or a game, you lean forward. The same applies to conversation. Slightly leaning your upper body toward the speaker is a loud nonverbal cue that says, “I am interested in what you are saying.” 37(2.5分) Just be mindful of personal space, because a deep lean can feel like impoliteness. Find the eye contact “sweet spot”. 38(2.5分) However, there is a fine line between “engaged” and “uncomfortable”. Unbroken staring can cause a fight-or-flight response in others. To avoid this, try the 50/70 rule: maintain eye contact for 50% of the time while you are speaking and maintain eye contact for 70% of the time while you are listening. Adopt an open posture. When you cross your arms or legs, you are physically protecting your vital organs. 39(2.5分) To appear more approachable, keep your chest open. Let your arms hang relaxed at your sides and angle your body toward the person you are speaking with. Subtly (巧妙地) mirror their movements. Have you ever noticed that when you are really clicking with someone, you naturally start doing the same things they are? This is called mirroring, and it creates an unconscious sense of familiarity and trust. You can intentionally use this by reflecting your conversation partner’s posture or gestures. The warning: The key word is subtle. 40(2.5分) A．Lean in to listen. B．Be an active observer with a deep lean in. C．This closes the physical distance and builds connection. D．You want to mirror their energy, not copy their every move. E．Looking someone in the eye conveys confidence and engagement. F．Mirroring can make the interaction more genuine when done frequently. G．While comfortable, this primitive defensive position signals to others that you are closed off. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Every person has a seed of life purpose in their heart. This seed grows quietly within us, often 41 , until one day, something big happens in our life. Growing up, I lived a(n) 42 life filled with peace and freedom. My happiest memories are of me working on our 43 . I loved digging, touching the soil, and planting bananas. My father taught me the value of 44 everyone around us. Some of my friends 45 school fees (学费). I’d call them to our family farm and pay them for their efforts. I also 46 what I’d learned in school if someone needed help in their studies. Little did I know that my seed of life purpose was being 47 within from that time. When I studied at university, I 48 visited a refugee (难民) settlement with my friend. I felt 49 when seeing how people there lived. That night, 50 of the settlement circled in my mind. The 51 between my childhood and the life of the families in the settlement struck me deeply. My purpose seed suddenly 52 , and I was ready to answer the call. The following morning, I returned to the settlement and 53 to teach those people to grow crops, vegetables and, of course, bananas, which I was good at. Slowly, I put in more 54 , and within five years, I set up a whole team of volunteers. We have much to do and many challenges to face, but together we stand, united by the 55 that every person has a seed of life purpose waiting to shoot. 41．(1分)A．unchanged B．unbothered C．unnoticed D．unappreciated 42．(1分)A．busy B．easy C．equal D．meaningful 43．(1分)A．farm B．campus C．journey D．project 44．(1分)A．taking advantage of B．making room for C．getting on with D．looking up to 45．(1分)A．earned B．delayed C．ignored D．lacked 46．(1分)A．recorded B．valued C．reviewed D．shared 47．(1分)A．discovered B．planted C．chosen D．admired 48．(1分)A．accidentally B．secretly C．eventually D．constantly 49．(1分)A．sorry B．annoyed C．afraid D．curious 50．(1分)A．goals B．images C．opinions D．reports 51．(1分)A．familiarity B．balance C．contrast D．similarity 52．(1分)A．returned B．disappeared C．stopped D．shot 53．(1分)A．learnt B．struggled C．volunteered D．refused 54．(1分)A．cash B．efforts C．equipment D．skills 55．(1分)A．faith B．wish C．decision D．promise 四、语法填空 （本题15分）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Meta communication is like a secret language that we all use without 56(1.5分) (realize) it. Think of it as the “how” of what we say, not just the “what”. When we talk, we don’t just use words. We use our tone, our body language, 57(1.5分) even the pauses between words. All of these things send messages. That’s meta communication. Let me share an example. I once had an 58(1.5分) (employ) who always said, “Sure, no problem” whenever I gave her a task. It sounded great, didn’t it? But her slumped shoulders (下垂的肩膀) and quiet sigh told 59(1.5分) different story. Her words were positive, but her body language revealed she was stressed. This is meta communication in action. The literal meaning of her words was positive, but the real message 60(1.5分) (hide) in how she said it. Understanding meta communication can make you a better leader, friend and problem solver, 61(1.5分) helps you understand what people really mean, not just what they say. So next time you are in a conversation, pay attention 62(1.5分) more than just the words. Listen to the tone, watch the body language and 63(1.5分) (face) expressions, and trust your instincts (直觉). You might be surprised by what you discover! Everyone conveys (传递) their messages 64(1.5分) (different). Use this knowledge to understand others better and to express 65(1.5分) (you) more clearly. That’s the real power of meta communication. 五、书信写作 66．（本题15分）你校英文报正在举办题为“肢体语言的力量”的征文活动。请你写一篇短文投稿，内容包括： 1. 肢体语言在交流中的重要作用； 2. 举例说明不同文化中肢体语言的差异。 注意：1. 写作词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The Power of Body Language ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 六、书面表达 67．（本题25分）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。 When I was in Grade One, most of my classmates didn’t like to play with me because I was always shy and silent. However, I always got high grades in both exams and activities. Gradually, I got the respect of my classmates. And my teachers repeatedly praised me and asked me to assist my classmates in their study. Besides, there were various competitions in my school and I was always chosen as the representative of our class. However, life is not always happy. There are times when we experience ups and downs. When I was in Grade Three, a student named Vannilyn came to our school, and she was placed in the class next to mine. Months passed and the result of the mid-term examination was released. I was still the No. 1 in my class and I heard that Vannilyn was the No. 1 in her class. However, I just ignored her and in my thought, I was still superior because I was a seasoned pupil. There were times when I didn’t want to open my books to read and study for our next day’s lesson. When I did my homework, I became careless and I didn’t even mind whether my handwriting looked beautiful or not. What’s worse, I gradually became addicted to computer games. And because of that, my teachers began to criticise me and what made me angry was that they always mentioned Vannilyn in front of me! I got annoyed every time my teachers compared me with Vannilyn. I was discouraged and no longer followed their instructions. At the end of the first term, the principal’s assistant announced the final examination result, and I still ranked No. 1. Therefore, I became prouder and told myself that I would still be the best student even if I didn’t study hard. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was overconfident and didn’t pay much attention to my study. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Three days later, the result of the English Spelling competition was announced. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试——Unit 4 Body Language（适中版01） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）What is small for the woman?

It’s okay if they are not brand new, but it’s not if they limit your performance. Next remember, you never get a second chance to make a good first impression. Walk in confidently and look as if you really want the job. When you sit down, sit up straight, keep your hands open and relaxed on your lap, don’t cross your arms or legs. However, a good first impression is not enough. You need to be smart when answering questions. If asked about the reason for quitting your last job, never criticize your past employers or bosses. It’s the kiss of death. Try to answer from a perspective like your personal development. It’ll show that you have matured and are ready to learn. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）Below is a list of the top and leading Chinese Restaurants in Los Angeles.

From escaping Somalia’s civil war to stepping into the Olympic ring, she’s turned her own story of struggle into a powerful mission to uplift others. Following her brother’s death in the chaos of war, Ali and her family spent a year as refugees (难民) before resettling in London, where Ali chanced upon boxing. What began as a means to prevent herself from being bullied has matured into both a lifelong calling and a source of comfort and a passion. Her amateur career saw her claim England’s National, Great British, and 2019 African Zone Featherweight titles. In 2021 she made history as Somalia’s first Olympic boxer, a symbol of perseverance and determination. Guided by the belief “You can’t be what you can’t see — if people witness my journey, they may dare to dream too”, Ali journeyed back to Kenya and visited the Dadaab refugee camp with UNICEF in 2025, during which she joined the Kasarani Sasa recycling group, a collective of over 200 refugee women waste pickers, helping sort plastic and cardboard. The program provides childcare, informal education for kids and safe income for struggling mothers. “Witnessing the things firsthand struck me. This could have been me, had I not left. It’s heartbreaking — you want to help everyone, but there’re so many,” Ali said. At FilmAid Kenya, a learning program teaching the young displaced filmmaking and storytelling, Ali shared how education transformed her life with the students, many of whom dreamed of careers in medicine or psychology, despite hardships. Though moved by a teenager who desired to be a film director after her first exposure to a camera, Ali feared the program, a lifeline for refugee children’s dreams, was at risk from global aid cuts. Deeply concerned about this, Ali partnered with UNICEF to provide sustained financial backing for refugee children’s education. Meanwhile, she’s expanded her free women’s boxing club worldwide. She made an appeal, saying “If my story can help just one girl see hope, my efforts will be fully worth it.” Ali’s power as a role model stimulates numerous disadvantaged youth’s ambition, lifting them out of despair and into dignity. 24．(0分)What initially drew Ramla Ali to boxing? A．The need for self- defense. B．The desire for pleasure. C．The pursuit of an athletic career. D．The influence of her brother. 25．What did Ali do in 2025? A．She set up a recycling program for refugee women. B．She collected waste materials for UNICEF in person. C．She organized childcare services in the Dadaab camp. D．She dedicated herself to a women’s recycling group in Kenya. 26．What was Ali’s major concern about the program FilmAid Kenya? A．Qualification. B．Accessibility. C．Funding. D．Equipment. 27．Which of the following best summarizes Ramla Ali’s life journey? A．From a refugee to an advocate. B．From isolation to connection. C．From ignorance to wisdom. D．From a victim to a victor. 【答案】24．A 25．D 26．C 27．A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述索马里出生的拉姆拉・阿里从难民成长为奥运拳击手、联合国儿童基金会大使，她用自身经历助力难民，以行动传递希望、激励弱势群体。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据第二段“Following her brother’s death in the chaos of war, Ali and her family spent a year as refugees (难民) before resettling in London, where Ali chanced upon boxing. What began as a means to prevent herself from being bullied has matured into both a lifelong calling and a source of comfort and a passion.(在哥哥死于战乱之后，阿里和家人作为难民辗转流离了一年，随后在伦敦定居。在那里，阿里偶然接触到了拳击。起初，拳击只是她为了免受欺凌而选择的一种方式，后来却逐渐演变成了她毕生的事业，更是慰藉心灵的源泉与热爱所在)”可知，拉姆拉・阿里最初接触拳击是为了自我防卫。故选A项。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段“Guided by the belief “You can’t be what you can’t see — if people witness my journey, they may dare to dream too”, Ali journeyed back to Kenya and visited the Dadaab refugee camp with UNICEF in 2025, during which she joined the Kasarani Sasa recycling group, a collective of over 200 refugee women waste pickers, helping sort plastic and cardboard. (秉持着“你无法成为你看不见的样子——如果人们见证了我的历程，他们或许也敢于去梦想”这一信念，阿里于2025年重返肯尼亚，并在联合国儿童基金会（UNICEF）的陪同下探访了达达阿布难民营。在此期间，她加入了Kasarani Sasa回收小组，这是一个由200多名女性难民垃圾收集者组成的集体，她在那里帮忙分类塑料和纸板)”可知，她在肯尼亚投身于一个女性垃圾回收小组。故选D项。 26．细节理解题。根据第四段“Though moved by a teenager who desired to be a film director after her first exposure to a camera, Ali feared the program, a lifeline for refugee children’s dreams, was at risk from global aid cuts.(尽管被一位第一次接触相机就渴望成为电影导演的少年所感动，但阿里担心这个作为难民儿童梦想生命线的项目正面临全球援助削减的风险)”可知，她主要担忧的是资金缺乏问题。故选C项。 27．主旨大意题。通读全文特别是第一段“Ramla Ali, Somali-born boxer, model and ambassador of United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) , has spent her life fighting, first for survival, then for change. From escaping Somalia’s civil war to stepping into the Olympic ring, she’s turned her own story of struggle into a powerful mission to uplift others.(拉姆拉・阿里（Ramla Ali），这位出生于索马里的拳击手、模特，同时也是联合国儿童基金会（UNICEF）大使，一生都在奋斗 —— 先是为了生存，而后是为了改变。从逃离索马里内战，到站上奥运拳击赛场，她将自己充满艰辛的成长故事，转化成了激励他人的崇高使命)”可知，文章讲述了拉姆拉・阿里从索马里内战难民，成长为奥运拳击手、联合国儿童基金会大使，最终成为一名社会倡导者，致力于帮助难民女性和儿童的人生旅程。故选A项。 （本题10分）We all know that a powerful body posture may help people feel more confident. But will it work on students? A new study by researchers from the Martin Luther University (MLU) of Halle-Wittenberg is carried out to find the connection. And it does provide evidence that simple body postures can help students feel better in school. Some body postures don’t need further explanation. When a man sits with his arms crossed behind his head, resting his feet on a table, he is probably feeling very self-confident. Arms folded in front of one’s body and a bent back, on the other hand, typically mean anxiety and insecurity. “Body language is not just about expressing feelings, it can also have a great influence on how a person feels,” explains Robert Körner from the Institute of Psychology at MLU. Research on powerful body postures tries to find out the extent to which a certain body posture might influence a person’s feelings and self-confidence. Up to now, most of the research has been about studying the effects on adults. Körner’s study is the first to examine children. “Children from the age of five are able to recognize and understand the body postures of others,” the professor adds. The researchers carried out their experiment with 108 fourth graders. One group was to assume two open postures for one minute each. The other group posed with their arms folded in front of them and their heads down. The children then finished a series of psychological tests. The children who had assumed an open posture showed better moods and reported higher self-confidence than the children in the other group. The effects were particularly manifest when it came to questions concerning school. “Here, powerful body postures had the strongest effect on the children’s self-confidence,” says Körner. “Teachers could try and see whether this method helps their students.” However, Körner states that expectations about this technique should be mild. The effects were only short-term. Serious problems or mental illness must be treated by trained professionals. 28．(2.5分)How does Körner feel about the short-term effects of powerful postures? A．He thinks they are useless. B．He believes they are significant enough for teachers to adopt in class. C．He argues they are too strong and harmful. D．He claims they last for years. 29．(2.5分)What is the new research on powerful body postures mainly about? A．What the most popular postures are. B．How children’s postures differ from adults’. C．Why body language can express a person’s feelings. D．What effects postures have on students’ feelings. 30．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “manifest” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Strange. B．Obvious. C．Unclear. D．Manageable. 31．(2.5分)What is Körner’s attitude to teachers’ applying the findings in teaching? A．Worried. B．Doubtful. C．Objective. D．Supportive. 【答案】28．B 29．D 30．B 31．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍马丁・路德大学的研究表明有力的身体姿势对学生情绪和自信有短期积极影响，及相关实验与应用建议。 28．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的““Teachers could try and see whether this method helps their students.” However, Körner states that expectations about this technique should be mild. The effects were only short-term.(“教师们可以尝试看看这种方法是否对学生有帮助。”然而，科尔纳表示，对这种技术的期望应该适度。其效果只是短期的) ”可知，科尔纳认为有力姿势的短期效果值得教师在课堂上尝试，同时提醒期望需适度。故选B项。 29．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But will it work on students? A new study by researchers from the Martin Luther University (MLU) of Halle-Wittenberg is carried out to find the connection. And it does provide evidence that simple body postures can help students feel better in school.(但这对学生有用吗？哈勒 - 维滕贝格马丁・路德大学的研究人员开展了一项新研究，旨在寻找这种联系。研究确实提供了证据，表明简单的身体姿势能帮助学生在学校感觉更好)”可知，这项新研究主要关注姿势对学生情绪的影响。故选D项。 30．词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“The children who had assumed an open posture showed better moods and reported higher self-confidence than the children in the other group. The effects were particularly manifest when it came to questions concerning school.(采取开放姿势的孩子比另一组孩子表现出更好的情绪和更高的自信心。在涉及学校的问题上，这种效果尤为manifest)”可知，前文已说明开放姿势的积极效果，后文强调在学校相关问题上效果更突出，因此manifest意为“明显的”，与obvious同义。故选B项。 31．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Teachers could try and see whether this method helps their students.” However, Körner states that expectations about this technique should be mild. The effects were only short-term. Serious problems or mental illness must be treated by trained professionals.(“教师们可以尝试看看这种方法是否对学生有帮助。”然而，科尔纳表示，对这种技术的期望应该适度。其效果只是短期的。严重的问题或精神疾病必须由训练有素的专业人员治疗)”可知，科尔纳既建议教师尝试，又客观指出效果的局限性和适用范围，态度是客观的。故选C项。 （本题10分）Since ancient times, humans have sought ways to detect deception (欺骗). Physical punishment was once useful but later rejected as victims would lie to end pain. This led to the search for non-forceful method, giving rise to the study of body language, that is, the nonverbal clues that may reveal deception. Observing changes in body language is as important as the actual gestures themselves. When a person is asked to talk about something they want to avoid, they may slide backward into the chair they are sitting in. I have seen people slide the entire chair backward against a wall to create distance. Crossing the legs or arms is an unconscious defensive gesture that might indicate deception. If the interviewer gives hypothetical motives or excuses for an incident, the interviewee will frequently nod the head up and down in agreement. On the other hand, forced efforts to maintain eye contact or intentionally invading the personal space of the interviewer might indicate an effort to appear truthful when telling a lie. While observing body language can be a good investigative tool, I feel the necessity to make this point. Body language is not an exact science. It is a good tool to show you are on the right track. However, there are various reasons why it might not be accurate. People from different cultures have gestures that might indicate deception when it is just a normal gesture. People with mental health or drug issues might give indicators that give you the wrong idea. In certain cultures, people are taught not to make eye contact with an authority figure such as a police officer or your boss. However, a person doing that might just be nervous or suffer from some type of PTSD (创伤后应激障碍). My advice is to try and know your subject. Try to know how they react during normal conversation and be familiar with their culture and how they were raised. Never pass judgement on body language alone. It is just one piece of the investigative puzzle. 32．(2.5分)What is the function of paragraph 1? A．To introduce the topic of body language. B．To trace the development of detection methods. C．To recommend the use of a non-forceful method. D．To explain the abandonment of physical punishment. 33．(2.5分)What does the gesture of sliding back into the chair indicate? A．Feeling fear. B．Avoiding a topic. C．Expressing agreement. D．Hiding the truth. 34．(2.5分)How does the author support the point that body language might not be accurate? A．By using statistical data from research papers. B．By providing a series of explanatory statements. C．By questioning the morality of using body language. D．By comparing body language across different cultures. 35．(2.5分)What is the best title for the text? A．Body Language: Not an Exact Science for Lie Detection B．Detected Deception: Why Body Language Always Works C．Body Language: The Most Reliable Way to Detect Deception D．Detected Deception: Limitations of Nonverbal Communication 【答案】32．A 33．B 34．B 35．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了人类为测谎研究肢体语言，介绍了回避话题等相关肢体信号，同时指出肢体语言测谎并非精准科学，需结合对象背景综合判断。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第一段“Since ancient times, humans have sought ways to detect deception (欺骗). Physical punishment was once useful but later rejected as victims would lie to end pain. This led to the search for non-forceful method, giving rise to the study of body language, that is, the nonverbal clues that may reveal deception. (自古以来，人类就一直在探寻识别欺骗的方法。曾经，体罚曾起到一定作用，但后来因其会导致受害者撒谎以减轻痛苦而被摒弃。这一现象促使人们寻求非暴力的方法，从而引发了对肢体语言的研究，即那些可能揭示欺骗行为的非言语线索。)”可知，第一段主要作用是引出主题。故选A。 33．细节理解题。根据第二段“When a person is asked to talk about something they want to avoid, they may slide backward into the chair they are sitting in. (当有人被要求谈论自己想要回避的话题时，他们可能会向后靠在他们所坐的椅子上。)”可知，向后靠回到椅子上的这个动作意味着试图回避某个话题。故选B。 34．推理判断题。根据第三段“People from different cultures have gestures that might indicate deception when it is just a normal gesture. People with mental health or drug issues might give indicators that give you the wrong idea. In certain cultures, people are taught not to make eye contact with an authority figure such as a police officer or your boss. However, a person doing that might just be nervous or suffer from some type of PTSD (创伤后应激障碍). (来自不同文化背景的人可能会有一些手势，这些手势在某些情况下可能被误认为是伪装的，但其实它们只是正常的肢体动作。有心理健康问题或吸毒问题的人可能会做出一些会让你产生误解的举动。在某些文化中，人们会被教导不要与权威人物（如警察或你的上司）进行眼神接触。然而，这样做的人可能只是很紧张或者患有某种创伤后应激障碍。)”可知，作者通过给出一系列的解释性陈述论证“肢体语言可能并不准确”这一观点。故选B。 35．主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“While observing body language can be a good investigative tool, I feel the necessity to make this point. Body language is not an exact science. It is a good tool to show you are on the right track. However, there are various reasons why it might not be accurate. (虽然观察肢体语言可以成为一种有效的调查手段，但我认为有必要强调这一点。肢体语言并非一门精确的科学。它能表明你正在正确的方向上前进。然而，它也可能存在一些不准确之处，原因有很多。)”结合全文围绕“身体语言可用于测谎，但它并非精确科学”这一核心展开，既说明了其作用，也强调了其局限性。选项A“身体语言：并非精确的测谎科学”最符合文章标题。故选A。 （本题12.5分）Communication begins long before you open your mouth. The way you stand, the position of your arms, and your facial expressions all tell a story that can be read immediately. By adopting the following habits, you can project confidence, openness, and charm with your nonverbal cues. 36(2.5分) When you are truly engaged in a movie or a game, you lean forward. The same applies to conversation. Slightly leaning your upper body toward the speaker is a loud nonverbal cue that says, “I am interested in what you are saying.” 37(2.5分) Just be mindful of personal space, because a deep lean can feel like impoliteness. Find the eye contact “sweet spot”. 38(2.5分) However, there is a fine line between “engaged” and “uncomfortable”. Unbroken staring can cause a fight-or-flight response in others. To avoid this, try the 50/70 rule: maintain eye contact for 50% of the time while you are speaking and maintain eye contact for 70% of the time while you are listening. Adopt an open posture. When you cross your arms or legs, you are physically protecting your vital organs. 39(2.5分) To appear more approachable, keep your chest open. Let your arms hang relaxed at your sides and angle your body toward the person you are speaking with. Subtly (巧妙地) mirror their movements. Have you ever noticed that when you are really clicking with someone, you naturally start doing the same things they are? This is called mirroring, and it creates an unconscious sense of familiarity and trust. You can intentionally use this by reflecting your conversation partner’s posture or gestures. The warning: The key word is subtle. 40(2.5分) A．Lean in to listen. B．Be an active observer with a deep lean in. C．This closes the physical distance and builds connection. D．You want to mirror their energy, not copy their every move. E．Looking someone in the eye conveys confidence and engagement. F．Mirroring can make the interaction more genuine when done frequently. G．While comfortable, this primitive defensive position signals to others that you are closed off. 【答案】36．A 37．C 38．E 39．G 40．D 【导语】文章介绍了通过非语言信号（如姿势、眼神、动作等）来展现自信、开放和魅力的几种习惯。 【详解】36．根据后文“When you are truly engaged in a movie or a game, you lean forward. The same applies to conversation. Slightly leaning your upper body toward the speaker is a loud nonverbal cue that says, “I am interested in what you are saying.”(当你真正沉浸在一部电影或游戏中时，你会身体前倾。这同样适用于对话。微微将上半身倾向说话者是一个强烈的非语言信号，表示“我对你说的话感兴趣”。)”可知，本段主要讲述“身体前倾倾听”这一习惯。A选项“Lean in to listen.(前倾身体去倾听。)”适合作本段小标题，概括全段主旨。 37．根据前文“Slightly leaning your upper body toward the speaker is a loud nonverbal cue that says, “I am interested in what you are saying.”(微微将上半身倾向说话者是一个强烈的非语言信号，表示“我对你说的话感兴趣”。)”以及后文“Just be mindful of personal space, because a deep lean can feel like impoliteness.(只是要注意个人空间，因为过度前倾可能会显得不礼貌。)”可知，前文提到前倾的好处，后文提醒注意分寸，此处应补充前倾带来的积极效果。C选项“This closes the physical distance and builds connection.(这缩短了身体距离并建立了联系。)”承接前文，说明前倾的好处，与后文的提醒形成转折，符合语境。 38．根据本段小标题“Find the eye contact “sweet spot”.(找到眼神交流的“最佳平衡点”。)”以及后文“However, there is a fine line between “engaged” and “uncomfortable”.(然而，“投入”和“不舒服”之间只有一线之隔。)”可知，本段讨论眼神交流。E选项“Looking someone in the eye conveys confidence and engagement.(看着别人的眼睛传递出自信和投入。)”承接小标题，说明眼神交流的积极意义，与后文“However”形成转折，指出过度直视的问题，符合语境。 39．根据前文“When you cross your arms or legs, you are physically protecting your vital organs.(当你交叉双臂或双腿时，你是在物理上保护你的重要器官。)”以及后文“To appear more approachable, keep your chest open.(为了显得更平易近人，保持胸部敞开。)”可知，前文描述交叉手臂的姿势，后文建议打开姿势，此处应说明交叉手臂姿势传递的负面信号。G选项“While comfortable, this primitive defensive position signals to others that you are closed off.(虽然舒服，但这种原始的防御姿势向他人传递出你封闭自我的信号。)”承接前文，解释交叉手臂的隐含意义，与后文的改进建议形成对比，符合语境。 40．根据前文“The warning: The key word is subtle.(警告：关键词是“巧妙”。)”以及本段主题“Subtly mirror their movements.(巧妙地模仿他们的动作。)”可知，此处强调模仿要适度。D选项“You want to mirror their energy, not copy their every move.(你要模仿的是他们的能量，而不是复制他们的每一个动作。)”承接前文的警告，具体说明“巧妙”的含义——即模仿整体状态而非机械复制动作，符合语境。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Every person has a seed of life purpose in their heart.

Think of it as the “how” of what we say, not just the “what”. When we talk, we don’t just use words. We use our tone, our body language, 57(1.5分) even the pauses between words. All of these things send messages. That’s meta communication. Let me share an example. I once had an 58(1.5分) (employ) who always said, “Sure, no problem” whenever I gave her a task. It sounded great, didn’t it? But her slumped shoulders (下垂的肩膀) and quiet sigh told 59(1.5分) different story. Her words were positive, but her body language revealed she was stressed. This is meta communication in action. The literal meaning of her words was positive, but the real message 60(1.5分) (hide) in how she said it. Understanding meta communication can make you a better leader, friend and problem solver, 61(1.5分) helps you understand what people really mean, not just what they say. So next time you are in a conversation, pay attention 62(1.5分) more than just the words. Listen to the tone, watch the body language and 63(1.5分) (face) expressions, and trust your instincts (直觉). You might be surprised by what you discover! Everyone conveys (传递) their messages 64(1.5分) (different). Use this knowledge to understand others better and to express 65(1.5分) (you) more clearly. That’s the real power of meta communication. 【答案】 56．realizing 57．and 58．employee 59．a 60．was hidden 61．which 62．to 63．facial 64．differently 65．yourself 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了元交流的概念，通过例子说明其重要性，强调关注非言语信息以更好理解他人和表达自己。 【详解】56．考查非谓语动词。句意：元交流就像一种我们都在使用却没有意识到的秘密语言。介词without后接动名词形式realizing作宾语，故填realizing。 57．考查连词。句意：我们使用我们的语调、肢体语言，甚至词语之间的停顿。结合语境可知，our tone, our body language和even the pauses between words是并列关系，应用并列连词and连接，故填and。 58．考查名词。句意：我曾经有一个员工，每当我给她一项任务时，她总是说：“当然，没问题”。根据句中whenever I gave her a task可知，空处应用名词employee，意为“员工”，根据空前的an可知，此处应填可数名词单数，故填employee。 59．考查冠词。句意：但她下垂的肩膀和轻轻的叹息讲述了另一个故事。story是可数名词，此处表示泛指，且different是以辅音音素开头的单词，应用不定冠词a，故填a。 60．考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：她话语的字面意思是积极的，但真正的信息隐藏在她说话的方式中。根据句中was可知，此处描述的是过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时；主语the real message和动词hide之间是被动关系，应用被动语态；主语是单数，be动词用was，故填was hidden。 61．考查定语从句。句意：理解元交流可以让你成为更好的领导者、朋友和问题解决者，这有助于你理解人们的真正意思，而不仅仅是他们说的话。空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面整个句子，关系词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which引导，故填which。 62．考查介词。句意：所以下次你交谈时，注意的不仅仅是话语。pay attention to是固定短语，意为“注意”，故填to。 63．考查形容词。句意：听语调，看肢体语言和面部表情，相信你的直觉。空处修饰名词expressions，应用形容词facial作定语，facial expressions意为“面部表情”，故填facial。 64．考查副词。句意：每个人传递信息的方式都不同。空处修饰动词conveys，应用副词differently作状语，故填differently。 65．考查反身代词。句意：利用这些知识更好地理解他人，更清晰地表达自己。根据语境可知，此处表示“表达你自己”，应用反身代词yourself，故填yourself。 五、书信写作 66．（本题15分）你校英文报正在举办题为“肢体语言的力量”的征文活动。请你写一篇短文投稿，内容包括： 1. 肢体语言在交流中的重要作用； 2. 举例说明不同文化中肢体语言的差异。 注意：1. 写作词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The Power of Body Language ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: The Power of Body Language Body language plays a vital role in our daily communication. It not only helps express our feelings and attitudes but also makes what we say more vivid and convincing. For example, a warm smile conveys friendliness, and steady eye contact builds trust. However, body language varies across cultures. In some countries, a thumbs-up indicates approval, but in others, it may be offensive. Similarly, nodding usually means “yes” in many cultures, yet in parts of Greece and Bulgaria, it can mean “no”. Therefore, understanding these differences is key to effective cross-cultural communication. 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生向校英文报“肢体语言的力量”主题征文投稿，阐述肢体语言在交流中的重要作用，并举例说明不同文化中肢体语言的差异。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 至关重要的：vital → crucial 传达：convey → express 信任：trust → faith 不同：vary → differ 2. 句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：It not only helps express our feelings and attitudes but also makes what we say more vivid and convincing. 拓展句：Not only does it help express our feelings and attitudes but also it makes what we say more vivid and convincing. 【点睛】【高分句型1】It not only helps express our feelings and attitudes but also makes what we say more vivid and convincing.（运用了“not only...but also...”并列结构以及what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】Therefore, understanding these differences is key to effective cross-cultural communication.（运用了动名词短语作主语） 六、书面表达 67．（本题25分）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。 When I was in Grade One, most of my classmates didn’t like to play with me because I was always shy and silent. However, I always got high grades in both exams and activities. Gradually, I got the respect of my classmates. And my teachers repeatedly praised me and asked me to assist my classmates in their study. Besides, there were various competitions in my school and I was always chosen as the representative of our class. However, life is not always happy. There are times when we experience ups and downs. When I was in Grade Three, a student named Vannilyn came to our school, and she was placed in the class next to mine. Months passed and the result of the mid-term examination was released. I was still the No. 1 in my class and I heard that Vannilyn was the No. 1 in her class. However, I just ignored her and in my thought, I was still superior because I was a seasoned pupil. There were times when I didn’t want to open my books to read and study for our next day’s lesson. When I did my homework, I became careless and I didn’t even mind whether my handwriting looked beautiful or not. What’s worse, I gradually became addicted to computer games. And because of that, my teachers began to criticise me and what made me angry was that they always mentioned Vannilyn in front of me! I got annoyed every time my teachers compared me with Vannilyn. I was discouraged and no longer followed their instructions. At the end of the first term, the principal’s assistant announced the final examination result, and I still ranked No. 1. Therefore, I became prouder and told myself that I would still be the best student even if I didn’t study hard. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was overconfident and didn’t pay much attention to my study. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Three days later, the result of the English Spelling competition was announced. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph 1: I was overconfident and didn’t pay much attention to my study. Believing that I would always be the best in studies, whether I studied hard or not, I continued to play computer games and did what I thought was fun and interesting. At the beginning of the second term, our school organised an English Spelling Competition, in which there were six participants, including Vannilyn and me. When looking at Vannilyn in the competition room, I suddenly felt not so confident of myself. Three minutes later, the competition started. Paragraph 2: Three days later, the result of the English Spelling competition was announced. I was shocked to know that I only took the third place, with Vannilyn being the first. I sat on my chair, tears rolling down my face. After calming down, I began to reflect on what I had been doing those days. How I regretted the days that had been wasted playing games but should have been spent on my studies. I know better the saying “Pride goes before a fall” through my own experience. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了我学习很好，在班级很受人欢迎。但三年级时，隔壁班新来的同学Vannilyn的学习成绩和我不相上下，这让我很苦恼。于是，学习状态受到影响，我开始沉迷电脑游戏，因而受到老师批评，老师还总将我和Vannilyn进行比较。但是我期末考试成绩还是第一名，因此我骄傲地认为自己不努力学习也可以取得好成绩。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我过于自信，不太注重学习”可知，第一段可描写作者过于自信以及不注重学习的表现。 ②由第二段首句内容“三天后，英语拼写比赛的成绩宣布了”可知，第二段可描写作者知道拼写比赛成绩不好之后的表现，以及感悟。 2.续写线索：过于自信——放松学习——参加比赛——公布结果——成绩不好——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类： 学习好：be the best in studies/get best grades in class 组织比赛：organize a competition/hold a competition 流眼泪：tears running down my face/my eyes watering 情绪类： 震惊：be shocked/be surprised/be amazed 冷静：calm down/pull oneself together 【点睛】【高分句型1】Believing that I would always be the best in studies, whether I studied hard or not, I continued to play computer games and did what I thought was fun and interesting.（运用了非谓语动词做状语，whether引导的让步状语从句，以及that和what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】I was shocked to know that I only took the third place, with Vannilyn being the first.（运用了that引导的宾语从句和with的复合结构） 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
