Maybe they entered a room with a relaxed manner, a calm expression, and a clear sense of self-confidence. However, confidence isn’t something you’re born with. It is a skill that can be cultivated and one of the best ways to start is mastering your body language. Your body constantly sends signals to those around you. The way you sit, stand and move reveals how you perceive yourself. So when you adopt confident body language, it not only influences how others perceive you but also, over time, can fundamentally change your internal state, making you feel more confident. Several key aspects of non-verbal behaviour contribute to this view. Firstly, gesture or posture is essential. You should maintain a straight back with relaxed shoulders, while avoiding crossed arms or eyes fixed on the floor. The pace of movement also matters. When you walk, move at a steady, natural pace. Rushing can make you look nervous, while smooth movements demonstrate calmness and self-control. Furthermore, eye contact is another crucial element of confident communication. Looking at the person you’re talking to shows that you’re listening and interested. You don’t have to stare continuously; occasional eye contact is sufficient. For those who find direct eye contact challenging, try focusing on the area near their eyes instead. Specific gestures further strengthen the image of confidence. You should keep your hands visible and relaxed, rather than hidden in pockets, which appears more open. A handshake should be firm yet friendly, accompanied by natural eye contact and a smile, lasting about three seconds. Additionally, subtle (微妙的) gestures can boost interpersonal connection. Leaning slightly forward while someone speaks signals concentration. Mirroring, or gently adopting similar postures or gestures to your conversation partner, can promote a sense of connection and make the interaction feel more natural and harmonious. In conclusion, confidence is not just a feeling inside; it’s something you can show through practice. As your body begins to reflect confidence, your mind will soon follow. (　)1.What is the function of Paragraph 1? A.To lead into the topic. B.To share a study. C.To make a warning. D.To introduce a new concept. (　)2.Why does the author suggest maintaining a straight back? A.It improves people’s health. B.It slows down people’s movement. C.It helps people feel more confident. D.It affects people’s opinions of others. (　)3.How does the author mainly organize Paragraph 4? A.By describing a process in a time sequence. B.By explaining a cause and its various effects. C.By comparing and contrasting two different gestures. D.By stating a general idea and giving specific examples. (　)4.What does the author want to tell us? A.Confident body language only influences others’ opinions of us. B.Continuous eye contact is necessary for confident communication. C.Confidence can be shown through body language and improved with practice. D.Mirroring others’ gestures only makes them feel uncomfortable during interaction. ●Ⅴ 完形填空(每小题1分,满分15分) [2026·福建福州高二期中考试] Clara Daly was seated on an Alaska Airlines flight from Boston to Portland.

It is a skill that can be cultivated and one of the best ways to start is mastering your body language.”以及下文的内容可知,第一段的作用是引出话题,表明自信是可以培养的。故选A项。 2.C　细节理解题。根据第二段“So when you adopt confident body language, it not only influences how others perceive you but also, over time, can fundamentally change your internal state, making you feel more confident.”可知,作者建议保持挺直的背部是因为这能帮助人们感觉更自信。故选C项。 3.D　推理判断题。根据第四段“Specific gestures further strengthen the image of confidence. You should keep your hands visible and relaxed, rather than hidden in pockets, which appears more open. A handshake should be firm yet friendly, accompanied by natural eye contact and a smile, lasting about three seconds. Additionally, subtle (微妙的) gestures can boost interpersonal connection. Leaning slightly forward while someone speaks signals concentration. Mirroring, or gently adopting similar postures or gestures to your conversation partner, can promote a sense of connection and make the interaction feel more natural and harmonious. ”(特定的肢体动作能进一步强化自信的形象。你应让双手保持可见且放松的状态,而非插在口袋里,这样会显得更坦诚。握手时要坚定而不失友善,同时配合自然的眼神交流与微笑,时长约三秒。此外,微妙的肢体动作还能增进人际联结:他人讲话时身体微微前倾,是专注倾听的信号;模仿,即适度复刻交谈对象的姿势或肢体动作,则能增进联结感,让互动更自然、融洽。)可知,作者先提出观点,再给出具体例子来组织第四段。故选D项。 4.C　主旨大意题。根据最后一段“In conclusion, confidence is not just a feeling inside; it’s something you can show through practice. As your body begins to reflect confidence, your mind will soon follow. ”(总之,自信不仅仅是一种内心的感觉;你可以通过练习展现出来。当你的身体开始表现出自信时,你的思想很快也会跟上。)以及上文内容可知,作者想要告诉我们自信可以通过肢体语言来展现,并通过练习得到提升。故选C项。 Ⅴ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了 Clara Daly 利用手语在飞机上帮助一位盲人乘客的故事。 1.A　根据下文“We have a passenger who’s blind and deaf.
