COMMUNICATION: NO PROBLEM?
Yesterday, another student and I, representing our university's student association, went to the Capital International Airport to meet this year's international students. They were coming to study at Beijing University. We would take them first to their dormitories and then to the student canteen. After half an hour of waiting for their flight to arrive, I saw several young people enter the waiting area looking around curiously. I stood for a minute watching them and then went to greet them.
The first person to arrive was Tony Garcia from Colombia, closely followed by Julia Smith from Britain. After I met them and then introduced them to each other, I was very surprised. Tony approached Julia, touched her shoulder and kissed her on the cheek! She stepped back appearing surprised and put up her hands, as if in defence. I guessed that there was probably a major misunderstanding. Then Akira Nagata from Japan came in smiling, together with George Cook from Canada. As they were introduced, George reached his hand out to the Japanese student. Just at that moment, however, Akira bowed so his nose touched George's moving hand. They both apologized - another cultural mistake!
Ahmed Aziz, another international student, was from Jordan. When we met yesterday, he moved very close to me as I introduced myself. I moved back a bit, but he came closer to ask a question and then shook my hand. When Darlene Coulon from France came dashing through the door, she recognized Tony Garcia's smiling face. They shook hands and then kissed each other twice on each cheek, since that is the French custom when adults meet people they know. Ahmed Aziz., on the contrary, simply nodded at the girls. Men from Middle Eastern and other Muslim countries will often stand quite close to other men to talk but will usually not touch women.
As I get to know more international friends, I learn more about this cultural "body language". Not all cultures greet each other the same way, nor are they comfortable in the same way with touching or distance between people. In the same way that people communicate with spoken language, they also express their feelings using unspoken "language" through physical distance, actions or posture. English people, for example, do not usually stand very close to others or touch strangers as soon as they meet. However, people from places like Spain, Italy or South American countries approach others closely and are more likely to touch them. Most people around the world now greet each other by shaking hands, but some cultures use other greetings as well, such as the Japanese, who prefer to bow.
These actions are not good or bad, but are simply ways in which cultures have developed. I have seen, however, that cultural customs for body language are very general - not all members of a culture behave in the same way. In general, though, studying international customs can certainly help avoid difficulties in today's world of cultural crossroads!

probable 表示可能性很大,主要用来指有根据,合情理,值得相信的事物,译为“很有可能地,大概” It is probable that…
likely 表示可能性很大,但比probable弱,侧重从表面看,某事很有可能发生,当指某人或某事充当主语,其后用不定式,只能用likely ,而不用possible ,probable,即,sb./sth.be likely to do. 句式:It is likely that…

The contractor (订约人) was 20 to see his good worker go & asked if he could build just one more house as a 21 . The carpenter said yes, but over time it was easy to see that his 22 was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used 23 materials. It was an 24 way to end a dedicated career.
When the carpenter finished his work, his employer came to 25 the house. Then he handed the 26 to the carpenter and said, "This is your house... my gift to you."

第三部分:阅读理解
阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
We convey (传达) information through the position and movement of the body. We often use gestures or body movements to stress what we are saying. For example, when I lecture (演讲), I often use my hands to emphasize (强调) points or point to something on the blackboard. Some people use them more than others. The victory (胜利) sign, the OK sign, the goodbye wave and the blowing of a kiss are all popular gestures in America. It is important to recognize, however, that most gestures are not universally recognized. For example, although the OK gesture means acceptance in
There are some sex differences in nonverbal behavior. In American culture, men tend to sit or stand with legs apart and hands outward, while women tend to keep legs together and hands at their sides. Women are also better than men at understanding nonverbal gestures.
A nonverbal behaviour is to have the tongue just slightly protruding (突出) from the mouth. A study showed that people were less willing to approach others who had their tongues showing. Perhaps this is why people often tend to avoid individuals with bad nonverbal behaviours. When we make decisions about other people, we learn to recognize nonverbal cues (提示) and interpret (理解) them along with verbal information.
36. From the passage we can know that ________.
A. body language in
B. the deferent cultures share the same body languages
C. the same gestures in deferent cultures may have the deferent meanings
D. body language is more important than words
37. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Women’s body language is easier to understand.
B. Women have a better understanding of body language than men.
C. In American culture, men care more about their gestures than women.
D. In American culture, men and women always employ the deferent gestures.
38. It may be concluded from this passage that ________.
A. body language can completely replace words
B. different cultures share different nonverbal behaviours
C. body language sounds louder than verbal information
D. body language can be helpful for us to communicate with each other
B
Most good interviewers will make an effort to establish and keep eye contact. Make sure that you do not find yourself looking down or away. If you wear glasses, be sure to buy the non-glare lenses. Do not stare.
Rapidly nodding your head can leave the impression that you are impatient and too eager to add something to the conversation -- if only the interviewer would let you. Slower nodding, on the other hand, emphasizes interest, shows that you are validating (确认) the comments of your interviewer, and encourages him to continue. Tilting (倾斜) the head slightly, when combined with eye contact and a natural smile, shows friendliness and approachability (可接近的).
Your smile is one of the most powerful positive body signals. Everybody looks better when they smile. Offer an unforced, confident smile. Avoid at all costs the technique that some applicants use: grinning idiotically (白痴般地裂口笑) for the length of the interview, no matter what. This will only communicate that you are insincere (虚假的).
It’s worth remembering that the mouth provides a seemingly limitless supply of opportunities to convey weakness. This may be done by touching the mouth frequently; "faking" a cough when confused with a difficult question; and /or gnawing (咬) on one’s lips absentmindedly (茫然地). Employing any of these "insincerity signs" when you are asked about say, why you lost your last job, will confirm (确认) or instill (慢慢灌输) suspicions about your honesty.
39. The mouth may make your weakness known by ________according to the passage.
A. pretending to be coughing B. having an unforced smile
C. blowing a kiss D. showing your teeth
40. The main purpose of this text is to ________.
A. tell you how to communicate with others effectively.
B. show you how to make yourself more understandable
C. remind you of respecting the interviewer.
D. give you some advice on facial signals for job interviews
41. What does the underlined word “suspicion” in the last paragraph mean?
A. understanding B. uncertainty C. expression D. agreement
42. Which facial signal can cause you to lose an opportunity of being employed?
A. Gnawing on one’s lips. B. A natural smile.
C. A natural smile. D. Touching the mouth occasionally.
C
About five states in Nigeria will experience a total eclipse (日蚀) of the sun on March 29, 2006, according to a forecast by the Ministry of Science and Technology this week.
An eclipse occurs in one of two ways: when the moon passes between the earth and the sun so that all or part of the sun cannot be seen for a time, or when the earth passes between the moon and the sun so that you cannot see all or part of the moon for a time. The first case is a solar eclipse or eclipse of the sun, which occurs as the earth enters the shadow of the moon. The second describes a lunar eclipse or eclipse of the moon, which happens when the moon enters the shadow of the earth.
More than 60 percent of Nigerians are uneducated, and eclipses in some parts of the country in the past have caused commotions in which people have been killed and property destroyed. Some Nigerians believe an eclipse is punishment from the gods for evil doing.
The March 29th eclipse would be the fifth in
The shadows in an eclipse have a central dark part called umbra, and a less dark external section called penumbra. In the umbra, all the sun’s light is cut off, and this is called total eclipse; while in the penumbra, only a part of the light from the sun is cut off from the moon, and it is called partial eclipse.
Five Nigerian states — Oyo, Kwara, Niger, Zamfara, and Katsina — are expected to have total eclipse, while other parts of the country will experience partial eclipse.
43. This passage is mainly written to ________.
A. predict a eclipse of the sun in
B. compare a eclipse of the sun with a eclipse of the moon
C. provide information on a coming eclipse of the sun in
D. show that people in
44. If this passage is taken from a newspaper, which section is the passage probably from?
A. Entertainment. B. Economy. C. Education. D. Science.
45. The best title for this passage is ________.
A. What Is an Eclipse
B. How Foolish People in
C. Nigeria Expects Solar Eclipse
D. Solar Eclipse Happens on March 29, 2006

阅读下面短文,根据文章内容回答下列问题。
There are a lot of differences between Americans and Chinese in romance. The main differences are in physical actions and oral expression. In physical actions, Americans are more open. They hug each other when they meet together and give kisses to each other when they want to express their love. They share their emotions directly.
Unlike Americans, Chinese are shy about showing their feelings physically. They always keep their emotions under control. The only romantic hint is to hold hands with each other in their own room. They take working hard and being responsible as ways to show their romantic feelings to their spouses (配偶).
In oral expression, Americans say sweet words to each other any time, such as "I love you", "Honey", etc. They send cards to show the feelings of apology and being sorry, greetings and appreciation. Americans are open-minded. In contrast, Chinese rarely say "I like you" to each other. Even if they do something wrong, they don’t apologize to their spouses. They think that there is nothing to be sorry for between a couple. They believe that buying gifts for each other is a waste of money. They think that to do their best and support the family in the wealthy condition shows their love to the spouse. That is much better than saying sweet words. In conclusion, Americans are open and direct, but Chinese are shy. There is really a lot of difference in romantic expression between the American and Chinese.
46. How do Americans show romance in a physical way?
_______________________________________________________________________________
47. What can we conclude from Americans’ romantic expressions?

书面表达
One possible version:
Dear friends, I’m very glad to have the chance to speak to so many classmates here at present. Today I’d like to talk about how middle school students should deal with their pocket money properly. As is known to all, we can easily get pocket money from our parents if we want to. But it is no good for us spending it at will. In my opinion, we may spend some on books and magazines, from which we can get a lot of knowledge and pleasure. If we love music, sports or stamp collecting, we can develop the interests in them by using some of our pocket money. On the other hand, if possible, we’d better put some in the bank, which will help us form the habit of thrift. Don’t you think so? I really hope you will give me your opinions about it. Thank you.

重点解析
1. D。university读音是以辅音音素开头,所以用a;art在这里指“美术,艺术”,是泛指,所以前面不加the。
2. B。prevent常用prevent sb (from) doing sth结构,表示“防止;预防”;avoid意为“避免”,后面跟名词或动词-ing形式作宾语;protect意为“保护”;allow意为“允许”。根据句意,“虽然Tyron很生气,但是他头脑很冷静”,就不会做不恰当的事情,也不会“冲进领导的办公室”,所以用avoid最合适。
3. B。根据句意,“在这张地图上,这颗红星____中国的首都。”红星与首都在此只能是代表的关系,所以不能用A(告诉)、C(代替)或者D(意味着),所以选B,represent意为“代表”。
4. D。本句选用过去进行时,指那时动作正在发生。
5. C。usually意为“通常”;curiously意为“好奇地;奇怪地”;similarly意为“类似地”;particularly意为“独特地;显著地”。根据句意,“通过锻炼来强健身体”与“通过学习来提高智力”之间具有一种类比的关系,所以用similarly最合适。
6. B。in a word意为“总之;一句话;总而言之”;in general意为“大体上;一般地”;in all意为“总共”;in total意为“总共”。通过句意可以看出,“大多数青少年喜欢听摇滚乐”是一种一般的普通的情况,所以选B。
7. A。significant意为“有意义的;重大的;重要的”;major意为“主要的;重要的;大的”;considerate意为“考虑周到的”;greater意为“更大的”。根据句意,这里指“一个比较重大的改变”,用more来修饰,不能用major,因为major本身已经具有“比较”的含义;greater只能用much来修饰;considerate不合题意,所以选significant。
8. B。what if这里指“如果……将会怎样”,表示对一种假设的提问;if only指“要是……就好了”;as if意为“好像”;even if意为“即使”。根据句意,这里应选A。
9. D。根据后半句说,“工厂确认足以满足人们的需要”,那么前提应该是“生产各种各样的钢琴”应该已经成为事实,所以用现在完成时,动词-ing形式作状语。
10. B。encourage意为“鼓励”;express意为“表达”;explain意为“解释”;exchange意为“交流”。句意为:学会很好地表达自己,是现代教育的一个很重要的内容。
11. C。attitude to / towards指“对……的态度”;appearance指“出现”;approach指“方法;途径”,后常接to;altitude指“海拔;高度”。根据句意,这里指一种“教学方法”,所以用approach。注:Big6 Model 的全称是Big6 Model of Information Problem-Solving,指Big6信息问题解决模式,属于“问题解决”式的研究学习。
12. C。keep in touch with意为“保持联络”;within reach of意为“离得很近;在范围内”;out of touch with意为“失去联系;不再了解情况”;out of reach of意为“够不着”。
句中指曾祖父对现代潮流不闻不问,所以选C。
13. A。交际用语。由情景可知,B将一本书借给了A,A觉得这本书很有趣,故B说“我很高兴你喜欢”,A接着说:“谢谢你借给了我这么长的时间”。That’s all right回答感谢和道歉;Don’t mention it(别人道谢时回答)不客气;I hope you like it指期望对方喜欢,而事实是对方的确很喜欢,所以选A。
14. A。must have done表示对过去情况有把握的推测。
15. C。常用sb / sth be likely to do或it’s likely +从句,表示“可能”;certain表示“确定的”;probable后常跟that从句表示“很有可能”;be sure to do sth指“一定;务必去做某事”。
16. A。第一句说“老木匠准备退休了”,由此可以得知,他要离开建房子的行业。但是并没有avoid(避开、躲避)的意思,更不是lead(领导)、gain(获得)的意思。
17. C。“enjoy his extended family”指享受家庭带来的天伦之乐。respect指“尊敬”;cheer指“欢呼”;satisfy指“满足;使满意”,三项都不合语境。
18. D。因为退休后就没有薪水了,所以用miss the paycheck表示“得不到薪水”。depend on指“依靠;依赖”;receive指“收到;接到”;benefit from指“受益于”。
19. B。前后是转折关系。虽然没有薪水了,但他还是想退休,因为生活还能过得去。
20. A。从后文的good worker可以看出,他在老板的眼中,是个好工人,所以老板对他的退休表示“遗憾”,而不是B(高兴的)、C(失望的)、D(愉快的;高兴的)。
21. B。老板请他在离去之前,再帮忙建一座房子,所以用“a personal favour”。service指“服务”;work指“工作”;end指“结局”,都不合语境。
22. C。从后文他对建房子的态度可知,“他的心思(heart)已经不在工作上了。”curiosity指“好奇心”;energy指“精力”;patience指“耐性”。
23. A。他这座房子没有建好,是因为用的是劣质材料。
24. D。他建的这座劣质房子竟然成了老板送给自己的礼物,以如此方式结束自己的事业,不能不说是一种“不幸”。
25. C。inspect有“检查”的意思,房子建成后,老板来验收房子,而不是A(卖)、B(买)、D(赞美)。
26. B。因为老板说“房子是你的了,我给你的礼物”,自然递给他的是房门的“钥匙”。
27. A。木匠没有想到自己建的这座房子竟然是给自己的,所以听到老板的话,木匠的反应只能是“震惊”(shocked)。
28. D。如果知道房子是为自己建的,他就不这样了,会以不同的方式建房子。differently指“不同地”;secretly指“秘密地”;rapidly指“迅速地”;willingly指“欣然地”。
29. B。本文作者把“建房子”比作“创造生活”,所以选life。
30. A。在创造生活的时候,有时会像木匠那样犯“不尽心尽力”的错误。less than指“小于”;more than指“多于”;no more than指“只是”;no less than指“正如”。
31. C。realize指“意识到”的意思。句意为“突然意识到,我们将不得不住进我们自己建造的房子”,这里指一种醒悟,所以不能用promise(允许)、decide(决定)、consider(考虑;照顾)。
32. D。这里指生活不会重来。一旦已经建成了房子,那么就不能返回。go back指“回去”;throw away指“扔掉;丢弃”;throw off指“扔开;脱掉”;go ahead指“前进”。
33. B。从全文来看,木匠错就错在他的态度不对,自以为这是最后一座房子,因而没有尽心尽力地去完成,导致最后的遗憾,所以这里作总结的时候,“态度”是很重要的一个内容,同时还包含“你现在所做的决定”,将决定你未来的生活。
34. A。根据tomorrow(明天),意指“未来”,可以确定用将来时。
35. D。根据木匠的经验,这里作者给读者提出了建议,希望今天做的每件事情都是认认真真地做的,所以应该给自己营造一个很好的环境。所以simply(简单地)、personally(亲自)、gradually(逐渐地)都不符合语境,wisely指“明智地”。
36. C。文中举例说到了许多关于美国的身势语的内容,但是并没有说身势语在美国就比在其他国家更流行,所以A错误;从第一段中“… most gestures are not universally recognized”以及后文关于表达OK的身势语在不同国家表示的不同含义,说明身势语在不同文化环境中表达的含义是不相同的,所以B错误,而C刚好表达了这样的意思,所以C正确;全文讲述了身势语在日常交流中的重要作用,但是并不是说比语言更重要,所以D错误。
37. B。第二段主要讲述了由于性别的不同,从而在非语言行为中也存在着许多不同,而女性比男性更能很好地理解身势语,所以B项正确。A项说,女性的身势语比较容易理解,与文意有悖;C项,在美国文化中,男性比女性更关注姿态,而文中主要是介绍了男性与女性在站着或坐着时的不同姿态的介绍,所以不能得出本结论;从第二段第一句“There are some sex differences in non-verbal behaviour”知,有一些差异,但并不是D说的“always have different gestures”。
38. D。从最后一段知,我们可以通过结合非语言(如身势语)的提示,透过语言信息来了解一个人,所以D项说,身势语可以帮助了解一个人,是正确的。A项说身势语决定了一个人的个性,未免有失偏颇;B项说语言信息不如身势语有用,显然不对,文中意思是身势语能够辅助了解一个人;C项说身势语比语言信息有效,也是不正确的。
39. A。A项说假装正在咳嗽,这是用来掩饰内心虚弱的一种方式,从文中最后一段可以看出;B(从容不迫地微笑)、C(飞吻)、D(露出牙齿地笑)都是自信的表现。
40. A。根据文中最后一段可以看出,咬嘴唇是“convey weakness”的一种方式,所以如果在面试的时候,老有这样的表现的话,那就很容易丧失掉这次机会。自然的微笑、自然的眼神交流以及偶尔摸嘴,都不是很大的问题。
41. B。根据前面“insincerity signs”以及问道“为什么会失去上次的工作”知,对待这样不真诚的行为,面试者就会更加肯定“对你的忠诚度”的“怀疑”。understanding指“理解”;uncertainty指“不确定”;expression指“表达”;agreement指“同意;一致”。
42. D。全文主要讲解了关于面部表情的建议,所以D正确。“如何有效地与人交流”、“如何让别人更能理解自己的意思”、“提醒你要尊敬面试者”都不是本文的主要意思。
43. C。该文主要介绍的是即将在尼日利亚发生的日食。故选C。
44. D。文中很明确地介绍了日蚀是怎样发生的,以及日全食与日偏食的原因等,所以本文涉及的是日食方面的科普知识,故选D。
45. C。标题概括题。C项标题准确反映了本文的主题内容。

第一个到的人是托尼·加西亚从哥伦比亚,其次是朱丽亚史密斯来自英国。当我遇上他们,然后介绍他们认识对方,我很惊讶。托尼接近茱莉亚,碰着她的肩膀并亲吻她的脸颊!她退后一步出现对此感到惊讶,并举起她的手,仿佛在后防线上。我猜想那里可能是一个主要的误解。然后从日本晶Nagata笑着走进来,同乔治厨师来自加拿大。当他们进行了介绍,乔治把手伸到日本的学生。就在那时,然而,所以他的鼻子碰晶向乔治的移动的手。他们互相道歉——另一种文化的错误!
艾哈迈德·阿齐兹,另一个国际学生,来自约旦。我们昨天遇见的时候,他走得很接近我,就像我作了自我介绍。我搬回了一点,但他走得更近了,问一个问题,然后跟我握了握手。从法国来的时候Coulon达琳冲穿过门的时候,她认识的托尼·加西亚的笑脸。他们握了握手,然后吻了对方两颊,因为这是每一个成年人,在法国习俗遇到很多人,他们知道。艾哈迈德Aziz.,恰恰相反,只是点了点头,女孩子。男人从中东和其他穆斯林国家通常会站得很近,他对周围的人通常会说话但不能碰的女人。
当我了解更多的国际朋友,我了解更多的关于这一文化“身体语言”。并非所有文化一样互相问候,也都以相同的方式舒适用触摸或距离人民之间的友谊。同样的道理,非语言交际与语言表达他们的感情,他们也有种说不出的“语言”通过使用物理距离,动作或姿态。英国人,例如,通常不站得很近或者触碰陌生人别人只要他们见面。然而,人们从地方像西班牙、意大利或南美国家接触那些紧密联系,更容易接触。现在世界上绝大多数人互握手,但是一些文化使用其他的问候,如日本,谁喜欢的弓。
这些举动不是好或坏,而仅仅是文化发展的方法。我所看到的,然而,肢体语言文化习惯很一般——并不是所有成员的文化行为是相同的。一般来说,学习国际海关一定可以帮助避免困难在当今世界的文化的十字路口。
