Admittedly, certain gestures share the same meanings in different countries. Nevertheless, body language differs from each other considerably across countries and regions. Such cultural distinctions are likely to bring about confusion during crosscultural contacts. Making inferences based on body language is one of the effective approaches to break down communication barriers. If we can interpret body language correctly, we will handle crosscultural interactions better and avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. 素养积累阅读 The Lantern Festival The Lantern Festival is a special Chinese festival celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the Chinese lunar calendar every year. It marks the end of the Spring Festival celebrations. This festival started a long time ago during the Han Dynasty when people began to light lanterns to honour Buddha. During the Lantern Festival, people enjoy watching beautiful lanterns, solving fun riddles that are written on the lanterns, and eating a special food called yuanxiao or tangyuan. Lanterns are a big part of this festival. They are in many shapes and colours and are hung in streets, alleys, and homes. There are also big fairs where people go to see lots of lanterns and try to guess the answers to riddles. Eating yuanxiao or tangyuan is another important custom of this festival. These are sticky rice balls with sweet fillings like bean paste or sesame. They are round, which means togetherness and happiness, hoping that families will stay close and happy. There are also exciting dragon and lion dances during the Lantern Festival. These dances are performed to scare away bad luck and bring good luck and peace for the new year. Kids really love watching these big and colourful dances. When the Lantern Festival comes, Chinese people everywhere celebrate with these activities, enjoying the beauty and warmth of their traditions. The Lantern Festival is a big part of Chinese culture. It shows how much Chinese people enjoy life and have good hopes for the future. With all these traditions, they share their dreams for a great life and show love for their families.

What do Chinese people do with these traditions of the Lantern Festival? They share their dreams for a great life and show love for their families. 3. What is the status of the Lantern Festival in Chinese culture?

A study conducted in Youngstown, Ohio, for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime. In another study, employees were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants. The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT) have taken it a step further—changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse, even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when they’re short of water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in groundwater. “We’re thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day,” explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT. One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow (发光) in experiments using some common vegetables. Strano’s team found that they could create a faint light for threeandahalf hours. The light, about onethousandth of the amount needed to read by, is just a start. The technology, Strano said, could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn trees into selfpowered street lamps. In the future, the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a oneoff treatment that would last the plant’s lifetime. The engineers are also trying to develop an on and off “switch” where the glow would fade when exposed to daylight. Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity consumed in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source (电源)—such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway—a lot of energy is lost during transmission (传输). Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy. 1. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. A new study of different plants. B. A big fall in crime rates. C. Employees from various workplaces. D. Benefits from green plants. 2. What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineers? A. To detect plants’ lack of water. B. To change compositions of plants. C. To make the life of plants longer. D. To test chemicals in plants. 3. What can we expect of the glowing plants in the future? A. They will speed up energy production. B. They may transmit electricity to the home. C. They might help reduce energy consumption. D. They could take the place of power plants. 4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Can We Grow More Glowing Plants? B. How Do We Live with Glowing Plants? C. Could Glowing Plants Replace Lamps? D. How Are Glowing Plants Made Pollutionfree? [答案] 1—4 DACC 二、七选五阅读 Listening to your parents fight is very hard, and you may not know how to respond when they start up again. However, there are some things you can do to try to make them understand how you feel and hopefully get them to decide to stop on their own. Choose the right time to talk to your parents. Although you want their fighting to stop immediately, it’s best if you stay away (if possible) during your parents’ fight. 1.____ and let them know that you want to talk about something that’s been bothering you. 2.____. Because you want your parents to understand things from your point of view, it can be a good idea to let them know what you think about the situation, even if what you think is that you are totally confused. Write out what you want to say in advance. 3.____, or if you’re worried that you’ll be really emotional, it might help you to write things out before you talk to them. 4. ____. Listen to your parents' explanations. Hopefully, your parents will be willing to talk to you about what's been going on between them and can explain why they've been fighting. Talk to someone you trust about your parents' fighting. If you're not sure whether or not you should talk to your parents, if you're not sure what you should say to them when you do talk to them, or if you've talked to them but nothing has changed, you should try to find a trusted adult to talk to. 5. ____.

A warning rolled across the 15 . “Anyone near White Gully should move towards higher ground at once. Flash floods are on their way!” “This is White Gully! Hurry up, Kayla,” Grandpa shouted and jumped out of his chair. He headed for the driver’s seat. Grandma hurried outside to fold up chairs and rushed back. I had never seen her move so fast!

Recent studies have found positive effects. A study conducted in Youngstown, Ohio, for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime. In another study, employees were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants. The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT) have taken it a step further—changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse, even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when they’re short of water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in groundwater. “We’re thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day,” explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT. One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow (发光) in experiments using some common vegetables. Strano’s team found that they could create a faint light for threeandahalf hours. The light, about onethousandth of the amount needed to read by, is just a start. The technology, Strano said, could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn trees into selfpowered street lamps. In the future, the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a oneoff treatment that would last the plant’s lifetime. The engineers are also trying to develop an on and off “switch” where the glow would fade when exposed to daylight. Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity consumed in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source (电源)—such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway—a lot of energy is lost during transmission (传输). Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy. 1. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. A new study of different plants. B. A big fall in crime rates. C. Employees from various workplaces. D. Benefits from green plants. 2. What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineers? A. To detect plants’ lack of water. B. To change compositions of plants. C. To make the life of plants longer. D. To test chemicals in plants. 3. What can we expect of the glowing plants in the future? A. They will speed up energy production. B. They may transmit electricity to the home. C. They might help reduce energy consumption. D. They could take the place of power plants. 4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Can We Grow More Glowing Plants? B. How Do We Live with Glowing Plants? C. Could Glowing Plants Replace Lamps? D. How Are Glowing Plants Made Pollutionfree? 二、七选五阅读 Listening to your parents fight is very hard, and you may not know how to respond when they start up again. However, there are some things you can do to try to make them understand how you feel and hopefully get them to decide to stop on their own. Choose the right time to talk to your parents. Although you want their fighting to stop immediately, it’s best if you stay away (if possible) during your parents’ fight. 1.____ and let them know that you want to talk about something that’s been bothering you. 2.____. Because you want your parents to understand things from your point of view, it can be a good idea to let them know what you think about the situation, even if what you think is that you are totally confused. Write out what you want to say in advance. 3.____, or if you’re worried that you’ll be really emotional, it might help you to write things out before you talk to them. 4. ____. Listen to your parents' explanations. Hopefully, your parents will be willing to talk to you about what's been going on between them and can explain why they've been fighting. Talk to someone you trust about your parents' fighting. If you're not sure whether or not you should talk to your parents, if you're not sure what you should say to them when you do talk to them, or if you've talked to them but nothing has changed, you should try to find a trusted adult to talk to. 5. ____. Think about going to a relative, a school counselor (咨询师), or your favorite teacher for advice. A. Explain how you feel B. Wait until they've calmed down C. Tell your parents what you think D. Pick someone who cares about you and you can trust E. Describe to your parents how things seem to you F. If you are nervous about remembering everything you want to say to your parents G.
