talk“交谈”与上文的“conversation”相呼应,且文章主要讲述
交谈中的肢体语言。
13.C当来自不同文化的人聚会时,很可能会出现误解,故选
misunderstanding“误会,误解”。curiosity好奇心;excitement
兴奋;nervousness紧张。

chance机会;time时间,次数,倍数;result结果。

Ⅲ.语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。肢体语言通常被称为非
语言行为,始于20世纪60年代和70年代,旨在证明面部表情
表达情感的普遍性,但是同样的肢体动作又可能会表达不同的
意思。
1.D细节理解题。根据第一段中“That work was inspired,in
part,by Charles Darwin's study 'The Expression of the Emotions
in Man and Animals(l872)’.”可知,查尔斯·达尔文的研究
帮助开启了对肢体语言的现代研究。
2.B推理判断题。根据第四段中“He focuses on...as well as
those gestures..”可推断出,Mark Bowden教授人们如何使用肢
体语言。
3.A细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“While the work of these
experts...whether their methods are reliable..”可知,David
Matsumoto认为Joe Navarro的方法令人怀疑。
4.B标题归纳题。本文探讨了我们是否能通过肢体语言了解
一个人的真实情感,故“Can body language tell important
truths?(肢体语言能揭示重要的真相吗?)”是文章最佳标题。
W.语篇导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者曾
经在社区幼儿园当助教的经历。有一个笑容十分灿烂的小女孩
每次和妈妈分离的时候都会大哭,作者想出了一个方法让她忘
记哭泣,并迅速开心起来。
l.A根据下文“getting to play with the other little kids”可知,这
个小女孩喜欢和别的孩子玩,说明她很外向。outgoing外向
的;sensitive敏感的;shy害羞的;generous慷慨的。
2.D一个小孩既喜欢待在教室里,又哭得很厉害,作者认为这
是一个奇怪的情况。urgent紧急的;dangerous危险的;common
普通的;strange奇怪的。
3.A句意:这导致了一个奇怪的情况:一个孩子喜欢待在我们
的教室里,却哭得像被折磨一样。asif好像;even if即使;every
time每次;in case万一o
4.D根据下文“I would go...starting to smile.”可知,作者喜欢
和孩子们在零食时间一起玩游戏。imagined想象;considered
认为;avoided避免;enjoyed享受。
5.C这个女孩有着最美丽的笑容,这种笑容能够点亮整个房
间。getting through通过;breaking into分解;lighting up点亮;
tearing down拆除。
6.A到最后这个孩子总是会露出灿烂的笑容。所以作者玩这
个游戏就是为了看到她的笑容。see看见;wipe擦拭;touch触
摸;geet打招呼。
-20
7.B因为游戏的规则是不能笑,所以为了不输掉游戏,当小女
孩笑的时候,她会用手捂住脸。help帮助:lose失败,输掉:
explain解释;appear显得。
8.C根据上文“she would cover her face with her hands”可知,f作
者会找到小女孩试图藏起来的笑容。believing相信;noticing
注意到;hiding隐藏;ignoring忽略。
9.C只要玩这个游戏,小女孩就会笑。所以作者认为这个游戏
很可靠,能够逗乐小女孩。flexible灵活的;simple简单的:
reliable可靠的;silly愚蠢的。
10.D小女孩被放下的时候总会大声地哭泣。laughing大笑;
speaking说;shouting大喊;crying哭泣。
11.B作者总会在小女孩哭时转移她的注意力。escape逃走;
shif转移;fix固定:force强迫。
12.C根据上文“Not wanting to_7_,she would cover her face
with her hands.”可知,当小女孩听到“不要笑”时,她会立刻
用手捂住脸。gradually逐渐;constantly不断地;immediately
立即;obviously明显地g
l3.D根据上文“Unfortunately,she also suffered from severe
separation anxiety.”可知,小女孩有分离焦虑症。所以此处指
小女孩在作者的帮助下,忘记了和母亲的分离。attraction吸
引(力);景点;suggestion建议;concentration注意力;
separation分离。
14.A作者仍然对那个甜美的小女孩有着美好的回忆,她美丽
的笑容,她是如何让她的母亲相信我是一个了不起的工作人
员。convinced说服;answered回答;recommended推荐;
impressed使印象深刻。
15.B根据语境可知,小女孩用她的实际行动让母亲相信她已
经忘记了“分离焦虑症”,并让她相信作者是一个了不起的工
作人员。beautiful美丽的;amazing了不起的:honest诚实的:
polite有礼貌的。
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了不同国家肢
体语言的差异。
1.easily考查词性转换。修饰动词nderstood,用easy的副词
形式。
2.clapping考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,clap hands在and
后的分句中作主语,应用动名词形式。
3.are accepted考查时态语态和主谓一致。本句陈述客观事
实,用一般现在时。主语gestures与accept之间为被动关系,
所以用被动语态,且主语为复数形式。
4.the考查冠词。same前面通常加定冠词he表示特指。
5.variety考查词性转换。a variety of为固定短语,表示“多种
多样的”。
6.wo考查定语从句。分析句子可知,空格处是非限制性定
语从句,修饰先行词people,关系词代替先行词在从句中作
主语,且先行词是人,所以用关系代词who引导。
7.Asian考查词性转换。修饰名词countries,用Asia的形容词
形式。
8.to know考查非谓语动词。“ltis+ad.+(for sb.)+todo
sh.”为固定句型,表示“(对某人来说)做某事是…的”,该
句型中t是形式主语,真正主语是后面的不定式结构,形容
词表明主语的特征或性质。结合句意可知,本句适用该固定
句型。
9.By考查介词。by this means为固定短语,表示“用这种方
法,通过这种方式”,此处位于句首,首字母要大写。
l0.pleasant/pleasing考查词性转换。分析句子可知,空处与
comfortable是并列关系,作make后宾语your stay there的补
足语,应用please的形容词形式pleasant/pleasing,表示“令
人愉快的”。
VI.One possible version
Dear Jack,
How are you doing?I'd like to invite you to write an article
for our school's English magazine.
In order to make us students have a better understanding of
body language in different countries,we are going to cover some
articles about body language.I wonder if you could write
something conceming what is body language as well as the
implications in different cultures.You can write anything relevant
as long as students can appreciate the art of non-verbal humour.
350 words would be fine.Could we have your article before next
Friday?
Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

I·语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了教师肢
体语言的重要性。
1.D词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句前半句“When these non-
verbal signals are working together with our words'”可知,肢体语
言和语言一起工作时,会产生沟通协同作用。由此推知,画
线词synergy为“协同作用”之意。
2.B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Most leadership
positions...pointing to others,which are obvious ways to
exercise control..”可知,大多数领导职位主要表现为控制。
3.C推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,肢体语言的重要性不
容忽视。在教学中提倡使用肢体语言,注意使用规则和技巧
是可取的。教师应该使用正确、自然、清晰的肢体语言。营造
良好的课堂氛围,激发学生的想象力,把握学生的情绪是至
关重要的,由此可推断,最后一段的目的是给出建议,建议
教师在教学中使用肢体语言。
4.A主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“The most effective
communication occurs when the importance of body language in
teaching is acknowledged.”和最后一段首句“The importance of
body language can never be ignored.”及全文可知,文章主要介
绍了教师肢体语言的重要性。
Ⅱ.语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了不同的
文化背景下人们以不同的方式交流。在非语言交流方面,亚洲
人使用各种肢体语言、面部表情和沉默来表达意思。
1.varieties考查名词复数。varieties of是固定短语,意为“各种
各样的”。
2.to express考查非谓语动词。句意:在非语言交流方面,亚洲
人使用各种肢体语言、面部表情和沉默来表达意思。分析句
子结构可知,express在句中作目的状语,应用不定式。
3.more考查比较级。根据后文than on nonverbal cues可知,应
用比较级。
4.confusing考查形容词。此处作表语,主语为this,应用-ing
结尾的形容词confusing“令人困惑的”
5.what考查宾语从句。句意:这可能会让西方人感到困惑,他
们可能会认为这意味着听者理解并同意他们所说的话。引导
宾语从句,从句缺少宾语,指物,应用what。
6.wich考查定语从句。此处是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行
词feature,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词
which引导。
7.actively考查副词。此处修饰动词短语participate in,应用副
词actively'“积极地”,作状语。
8.the考查冠词。the same是固定用法,意为“一样”。
20
9.serving考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,serve与逻辑
主语someone构成主动关系,应用动词-ing形式,作定语。
l0.are heard考查时态、语态和主谓一致。主语与谓语构成被
动关系,陈述客观事实,应用一般现在时的被动语态,主语
为these terms,谓语用复数。
Ⅲ.语篇导读:本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者通过邻
居Betty突然病重而最小的儿子Brandon在得知她病重的消息后
马上定了一束花送给她,这束花给Btty临终的日子带去了爱
的故事,告诉我们要做一件好事应该越快越好。
写作指导
1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“我静静地坐在沙发上,感觉很沉
重。”可知,第一段可描写作者接到了Caol感谢自己的来电,作
者安慰了她,Carol说十分钟后到作者家。
②由第二段首句内容“我赶紧打扫房间,迎接Carol。.”可
知,第二段可描写十分钟后Crol来到作者家,作者用行动再次
安慰了Carol.,Caol终于露出了笑脸。
2.续写线索:Carol来电一一安慰Carol-一Carol来家
为Carol煮晚餐一一Carol露出笑脸
One possible version
I sat quietly on the sofa,feeling heavy.At this time,the
telephone rang again,"Hello,this is Carol."I didn't know what
to say for a moment.I just heard the phone say,"Thank you very
much for bringing happiness to my mother."I replied haltingly,
"We are good neighbors.That's what we should do."I comforted
her while expressing my willingness.After a while,Carol
whispered,"Can I come to your house in ten minutes?"I
immediately replied,"Of course.
I hurried to clean up the house and welcome Carol.About ten
minutes or so,I heard a knock on the door.I hurried to the door
and opened it.I saw Carol's hands on her chest.Maybe it was
because she had just lost her mother.Her red and swollen eyes
hurt.I hurried to hold her hand and walked into the house.That
day,I prepared a big dinner for her.When I saw Carol's happy face,
my heart was filled with warm ripples again.

Ⅲ.语篇导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述的是作者
的父亲种植了一些无名种子,长大后把它们当成杂草,后来才
知道它们是珍贵的中药。
l.C细节理解题。根据第一段中“Dad was excited to have a
planting project in the winter.”可知,种植这些种子满足了父亲
在冬天对园艺的渴望。
2.B代词指代题。根据前面的“这些植物一夜之间似乎变大
了一倍。这才几周,它们就快到天花板了。”可知,这句话的
意思是“既然爸爸是园艺能手,我对此并不感到惊讶。”that
应指代植物快速生长这件事情。
3.B推理判断题。根据最后一段“当我们意识到我父亲刚刚
收获了一批用来止痛的珍贵中草药时,我们都笑到哭了。”以
及倒数第二段“No wonder my co-worker was so willing to take
them.(难怪我的同事这么愿意接受它们。)”可知,父亲同事
认识到这些植物的价值。
