When we do not understand each other’s language, we can talk with the help of signs.

A Frenchman was once traveling in England . He could not speak English at all. One day he went into a restaurant and sat down at a table. When the waiter came, he opened his mouth, put his fingers in it and took them out again. He wanted to say “Bring me something to eat.”

The waiter soon brought him a cup of tea. The man moved his head from side to side. The waiter understood him and took the tea away. In a moment he came with a cup of coffee. But the man again refused (拒绝) it. He shook (摇) his head whenever the waiter brought him something to drink, for drinks are not food.

When the man was going away, another man came in. This man saw the waiter, and he put his hand on his stomach (胃). That was enough. In a few minutes there was a large plate of meat and vegetables on the table in front of him.

　　So, you see, we cannot understand the language of signs as well as we can understand the language of words.

1.According to the passage when people do not understand each other’s language, they can talk with the help of ___________.

2. A Frenchman signed to the waiter ___________.

3. The waiter brought the Frenchman ___________.

4. Another man saw the waiter, and put his hands on his stomach. He meant ___________.

5. From this story, we know ___________.

　　Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry.

　　When you get angry, you can talk about it with6.o     people.

On the other hand, when you start to feel angry, you can do some other9.t     : count from 1 to 100, go for a bike ride, think about good things, and so on.

In a word, don't let your anger10.c    you. Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse.
