We are always using body language in our daily life. When we have a conversation with someone, we may be using more body language than words. However, the same body language may mean different things in different countries. That’s why people sometimes do not understand each other correctly. Pointing to one part of the body can mean differently in different cultures. For example, in the USA people point to their heads when they think someone is clever. However, in Europe it means ‘He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head’. In our Chinese culture, nodding our head up and down means ‘yes’ and shaking our head from side to side means ‘no’. However, in parts of India, Greece and Turkey, it means just the opposite. In England or the USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb and the second finger, it means ‘You’re all right or Everything is OK’. However, if we do this in France or Belgium, it means ‘You’re worth zero’. In Greece or Turkey, we should not make this gesture（手勢）. Or we are thought to be very rude.

The meaning of gestures can also change over time. In the 1960s, the V sign meant ‘peace’. However, during World War II, it meant ‘victory’. In Greece, it is a very insulting（污辱性）sign.

Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning throughout the world, such as smiling and crying.

  56. In England, if people point to their heads it means they think someone is  ____________.

A. clever                     B. stupid               C. headache         D. angry

  57. In India, if one nods his head up and down, it means he  _______________.

A. doesn’t agree   B. agree               C. is happy           D. is sad

  58. In France, if you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb and the second finger, it means  _______________.

A. you are clever                              B. everything is OK

C. it is true                                       D. you are worth nothing

  59. Which country’s body language is most different from our usual thinking?

A. France                    B. England            C. Greece                   D. India

  60. V sign meant  _______________ about forty years ago.

    A. victory                   B. killing               C. festival             D. peace

C

A daughter told her father about her life and said things were so hard for her. It seemed as one problem was solved a new one appeared. Her father, a cook, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to a boil. In one he place carrots, in the second he placed eggs, and in the last he placed ground（磨碎的）coffee beans. he let them sit and boil, without saying a word.

The daughter waited, wondering what he was doing. In about twenty minutes he turned off the fire. He fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. Then he poured the coffee out and placed it in a cup. Turning to her he asked, “Darling, what do you see?” “Carrots, eggs and coffee”, she replied.

He brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell（殼）, she saw the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to drink the coffee. She smiled, as she tasted it, “What does it mean, Father?”

He explained that each of them had faced the same trouble, boiling water, but each reacted（反應）differently. The carrot went in strong and hard. But after being in the boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg had been easy to break. Its thin outer shell had protected its inside. But after sitting through the boiling water, its inside became hardened. The ground coffee beans were different, however. After they were in the boiling water, they changed the water. “Which are you?” he asked his daughter “When trouble knocks on your door, what do you do? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?”

“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it!” That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between the two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.

All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch tings as we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it.

There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them!

Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show. If we want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see!

  66. By touching things you  _______________.

A. will have a good feeling                B. will learn how to reach out your hand

C. can tell the difference of the things       D. can tell what colours they are

  67. When people buy things in shops, they often  _______________ in the writer’s opinion.

A. pay attention to their colours        B. keep their right hands on them

C. ask about their price                           D. feel and touch them

  68. Why does it say “At first, it is not easy to feel these things?” Because  _______________.

A. people use these things, too          B. people are too used to the things

C. people know how to use the things      D. the things are easy to feel

  69. Which of the following is true? _______________.

A. Touching is more important than seeing

B. Our feet, fingers, hands and skin can help us buy food

C. People have to learn to see by feeling as they grow up

D. Visitors can feel the things on show in some museums

  70. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A. Touching by Feeling                            B. To see or to Feel

C. To See Better － Feel               D. Ways of Feeling

III. 短文理解，根據(jù)你聽到的一封信的內(nèi)容，回答16~20小題。

Dear Paul,

Thank you for your post cards. I do like the beautiful picture of pet dogs from you. Now let me answer your question in your letter: I like all kinds of animals. I really don’t have a favourite. You know, my father is a doctor for animals. So he often tells me to help animals. That means to help human beings.

My dog, Ben is the best friend of mine. He is also one of the family. When I’m away from the traffic and noise of the city, he always comes with me. he likes running after rabbits and birds, but he never hurts them. He makes me laugh when I am lonely. I love him very much.

That’s all for now. Write to me soon.

yours            

Li Lei
