阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意各小题后面的词数要求)。
(1) According to one study, words send only 7 percent of a person's message.Intonation(语调) and voice quality communicate 38 percent, and nonverbal (not using or involving words) cues (暗看专)transmit a large 55 percent. That means people pick up more from nonverbal communication than from the words a person says. When studying a foreign culture then, it just makes sense to pay attention to how people use nonverbal cues.
(2) Gestures make up a major form of nonverbal communication.  But often these gestures are culture-bound. For example, when the Maoris of New Zealand stick out their tongue at someone, it is a sign of respect. When American schoolchildren make the same gesture, it means just the opposite.  Also, Americans often indicate "OK" with their thumb and forefinger touching to form a circle. The same gesture means"money" to the  Japanese and "zero" to the French. For that reason, people in a foreign culture must use  gestures with caution.
(3) Another part of nonverbal communication is the one that you might not think about—space. When someone comes too close, he feels uncomfortable. When he knocks into someone, he feels obligated(有义务的) to apologize.  But the size of a person's "comfort zone" varies, depending on his culture or ethnic origin. For example, in casual conversation, many Americans stand about four feet apart. People in Latin or Arabic cultures, instead,________ and touch each other often.
(4) Considering the effects of nonverbal communcation, we never rea11y stop communicating. How we walk, how we stand and how we use our hands all send a message to others.  That's why it’s possible to "read someone like a book. "
小题1:Why do we pay more attention to nonverbal cues in a foreign country? (no more than 10 words)
_______________________________________________________________
小题2:What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? (no more than 3 words)
___________________________________________________________________
小题3:How does an American feel when an Arab stands too close to him? (no more than 3 words)
_____________________________________________________________________
小题4:Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words.  (no more than 6 words)
___________________________________________________________________
小题5:What does the passage mainly talk about? (no more than 6 words)
______________________________________________________________________

小题1:Because they transmit more than the words a person says.
Because we can pick up more from nonverbal communication
小题2:Gestures are culture-bound.
小题3:He feels uncomfortable.
小题4:stand (very) close to each other
小题5:It’s mainly about nonverbal communication.

试题分析:本文叙述了人们交流时绝大部分用的是非语言交流,第一它包括手势,但是各国的语言背景不同,手势的含义有所不同。第二包括人们交流时站的远近,由于各国的风俗习惯不同,站的距离的远近也不同。
小题1:根据Intonation(语调) and voice quality communicate 38 percent, and nonverbal (not using or involving words) cues (暗看专)transmit a large 55 percent. 人们用非语言交流占的最多,故用Because they transmit more than the words a person says.
Because we can pick up more from nonverbal communication.
小题2:根据Gestures make up a major form of nonverbal communication.  But often these gestures are culture-bound. 这是中心句,故用Gestures are culture-bound.
小题3:When someone comes too close, he feels uncomfortable. many Americans stand about four feet apart.谈话时离得太近会让美国人不舒服,故用He feels uncomfortable.
小题4:根据上文说讲话离得远,后面有instead 转折所以应该说离得较近,故用stand (very) close to each other.
小题5:纵观全文可以看出主要讲述的非语言交流,故用It’s mainly about nonverbal communication.
点评:在做阅读表达时,先要快速读题干,带着问题和目标在阅读过程中找到题干中要找的原句。回答问题时,即就文章内容回答问题。① 要重新组织答案,不要照抄原文;② 注意词数限制。补全文章中空缺的句子 要从上下文意义和结构角度考虑,同时也要注意词数限制补充句子:首先要分析句子结构,找到句子的主谓宾,分清句子的修饰成分,在翻译时,可以分成好几个句子来译。

[1]One Friday night in May 2010, Oliver and Ione Kleven heard angry shouts coming from their front lawn(草坪). Ione, 65, stepped onto the porch(门廊) and saw two men in dark clothes struggling with something on the ground—right where she and her grandson had planted a flower bed the weekend before.
[2] “Go fight somewhere else!” she shouted, worried her plants would getdamaged. At the sound of her voice, the face of a boy appeared from beneath the two men. He looked 14. “They’re trying to kill me!” the boy screamed. Ione ran toward them and, without hesitation, caught the boy’s arm, pulling him out.
[3] “Leave him alone!” she shouted. When the men stood up, Ione saw what looked like a sharp object in one man’s hand. When she turned back toward the boy, he was moaning(呻吟) in pain and holding his stomach. The attackers began to move in on the boy again when Ione’s husband shouted: “Get lost!” The two men walked quickly and quietly across the street and drove off in a dark car.
[4]“I have to get to the hospital!” the boy cried. He lifted his shirt, and Ione could see a bloody wound on his stomach. Oliver hugged the trembling(发抖的) boy while Ione caught her cell phone and car keys inside the house. She handed the phone to Oliver. “Call 911,” she told him. “I’m going after them.” Ione took off but was unable to find the car.
[5]The Klevens then learned what had happened. Earlier that night, as the boy waited for his parents to pick him up from the high school across the street from the Klevens’ house, two men approached and demanded his wallet. When he refused, one of the men hit him in the face. The boy ran across the street. The men caught up with him, and one hurt him in the back and stomach with a sharp knife. That’s when Ione stepped in.

小题2:Why did Ione shout at the two struggling men? (within 8 words)

阅读下面短文,用英语简要回答文后所给的5个问题。
[1] You may be familiar with this situation. You pass a group of people who are talking to each other. You cannot hear what they are saying. But suddenly they start laughing. What would you think? Would you think they were laughing at something else? Or -- be honest with yourself -- would you think they were laughing at you? Here is a study published in 2009.
[2]Being laughed at is a common fear. But the study found that this fear is not the same around the world. It differs from culture to culture. People in Finland were the least likely to believe that people laughing were making fun of them. Less than ten percent of Finns in the study said they would think that, compared to eighty percent of people in Thailand.
[3]Some people in the study said they hid their feelings of insecurity. Others said they avoided social situations where they had been laughed at before. The study found that people in Turkmenistan and Cambodia were more likely to be in the first group. They would hide their feelings of insecurity if they were around other people's laughter. But people in Iraq, Egypt and Jordan were more likely to try to avoid such situations if they felt they had been laughed at before.
[4]Shy people often avoid situations that would force them into close contact with other people. They worry that something they say or do will make other people laugh at them. But some people worry much more than others. They may have a disorder called gelotophobia. Gelos is a Greek word. It means laughter. Phobia means fear. This fear of laughter can be truly sad for those who live with it. It can affect how they lead their lives.
[5]In the study, a team from the University of Zurich led more than ninety researchers from around the world. They wanted to understand the difference between normal shyness and true gelotophobia. Another purpose of the study was to compare the levels of fear of being laughed at in different cultures.
小题1:What is a common fear according to the text? (No more than 5 words)
                                                                            
小题2:What would people in Egypt do if others were laughing around them? (No more than 10 words)
                                                                            
小题3:What does the underlined word “gelotophobia” in Para4 mean? (No more than 5 words)
                                                                            
小题4:What kind of situation do shy people often avoid? (No more than 15 words)
                                                                            
小题5:Put the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.

阅读下面短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后面的字数要求)。
[1]Why not take a more measured approach to a happier, healthier you? From your office to your bedroom to your car, these small changes can have a big impact on your life.
[2]Wake up ten minutes earlier. When you start your morning in a hurry, you set a stressful tone for the day. (I’m speaking from experience here.) Even ten extra minutes in the morning can help you feel more calm, collected, and ready to face the day.
[3]Spend five minutes in silence or meditation. You’ll soon realize, whether it’s in the morning or evening, that five minutes of sitting quietly with your eyes closed feels a lot longer than five minutes. But just this short silence can foster a quietness that carries through the day. When things go off the rails, simply close your eyes and recall that earlier quietness.
[4]Walk. Is there one trip you’d normally make in the car (to work, the gym, the store) that you can make on foot? Walking saves money (good for you) and gas (good for the environment) and burns calories (around 2,000 steps equal one mile), which is good for your health.
[5]Tell someone you love them. Life is never long enough to say this as many times as it should be said. Whether your mother, a friend, a significant other, or your dog, make it a habit to tell someone at least once a day that you love him or her. While it may feel strange at first, you will never regret it.
[6]Stand (or sit) up straight. Good posture prevents back and neck pain and even build confidence. When driving, tilt your rearview mirror(后视镜)up a bit. You’ll have to sit up to see. At your desk, the top of your computer screen should be at eye level. Put a small cushion in the curve of your lower back, and your spine will become straight.
小题1:What does the text mainly talk about? (No more than 10 words )
_____________________________________________________________________
小题2:Why is getting up ten minutes earlier in the morning suggested? (No more than 16 words )
_____________________________________________________________________
小题3:What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 stand for ?
_____________________________________________________________________
小题4:How can walking benefit people and the environment? (No more than 9 words)
_____________________________________________________________________
小题5:For what purpose should we stand or sit straight? (No more than 10 words)
_____________________________________________________________________

I've seen people do all kinds of things to relieve anxiety. Some have a glass of wine at dinner. Others shop or eat.But these are troubling times with hurricanes, tsunamis, war, and acts of terrorism —and if drinking, eating, or hitting the mall is your way offending off anxiety over the state of the world, you should know that the bill will eventually come due.And I don't mean just the credit card statement.Such coping methods do nothing to build your inner strength and resilience(弹性).Fortunately, there are ways to nurture(培养)true inner peace when outer peace isn't an option.
A few months ago, a woman called Nancy attended one of my seminars.Nancy had been through hard times. Three years earlier her house had burned down; then her husband's National Guard unit shipped out to Iraq, and when he returned he was angry, depressed, and shocked.The couple got treatment yet grew further apart until, finally, her husband asked for a divorce.Nancy realized she had a choice: She could drown in self-pity or move forward.After seeing how the trauma(心灵创伤)of war had torn up her husband, she wanted to make a difference with her life.So, at 35, she enrolled (注册学习)in a nursing school.
I think even Nancy was surprised by her resilience.But her leap into a life of greater meaning came from a simple change in outlook.She shifted her focus from her own problems to the difficulties of others.And that one change brought her clarity and peace.
This time of global uncertainty challenges each of us to create our own sense of security.That doesn't mean you need to follow Nancy's lead into a nursing career, but keeping an eye on what really matters will help you maintain your balance when things around you seem to fall apart.
小题1:List at least three common coping methods when people come down with anxiety.(No more than 7 words)
_______________________________________________________________
小题2:How did Nancy's husband feel when he returned? (No more than 6 words)

阅读以下材料,然后按要求完成材料后面的三个小题。
There are all kinds of stress ( 压力) in our daily lives such as stress from work, stress from study and stress from examinations. How to manage stress is thus a very important problem that we have to deal with properly.  Stress itself doesn’t exist. It’s only because we consider things to be bad and regard all of them as our own fault and won’t forgive ourselves. As we all know, there is nothing you can do without error. So it’s impossible to expect everything to be perfect. If we have done our best,  although not successfully, there is nothing to regret. And we don’t need to blame ourselves continuously. In fact we have done a quite good job. Then we will feel the stress less. We will stay healthy and do well in the future. Eventually we will be successful.
(1)请根据阅读信息填写下面句子
小题1:According to the passage, the stress that the students have is from _______ and _______.
小题2:The stress exists because we expect everything to be _________ and won’t __________ ourselves if we don’t do things well.
