　　Do you shake hands with someone when you meet him or her for the first time Do you open your mouth and eyes wide when you are surprised Do you smile when you meet your friend These are examples of body language.
　　Body language is the quietest, most secret and most powerful language of all. How important is body language It is said that our body language talks about 50% of what we really mean while words themselves only talk about 7%. So, while your mouth is closed, your body is just saying.
　　Remember that your body language can help you talk with people. And these rules(规则)will help you to get your message across, without any words at all.
● Smile when you are listening.
● Nod your head to tell the others that you understand.
● Remember! In English-speaking countries, it is polite to look at the person you are speaking to in the eye. It is not rude.
● Look confused(困惑的) when you don't understand. This tells the person you are speaking to that you would like an explanation(解释).

C(2021·浙江杭州萧山区期末)
　　In the southern part of Africa, just the north of South Africa, there is a country called Botswana. And in the northwest corner of Botswana is a very unusual area: the Okavango Delta. Delta is usually in the place where a river goes into a large body of water — a lake or sea — and slows down. Over many years, the slowing river drops so much silt(泥沙)at its mouth. As the silt builds up, a fan-shaped area of new land, the delta, appears. An example of such a delta is the Nile Delta in Egypt.
What makes the Okavango Delta so unusual is that the Okavango River doesn't go into a larger body of water. After fanning out into many different small waterways and wetlands across the delta, the River simply disappears, either straightly into the air or through the leaves of the plants growing there. If the Okavango River doesn't end in a delta, this area will simply be a very dry part of the Kalahari Desert. But the River fans out, watering thousands of square kilometers. Much of the Okavango Delta is under good protection and is home to a lot of plants and animals.
Few people live in the Delta, and tourism is in good and careful control. Visitors come only by air in small groups and stay in tents or small wooden houses. Some different safari companies have rights to operate(经营) in certain areas in the Delta. With the help of these companies, the Delta goes better and better.
(　　)27. 新风向 图文转换题 Which of the following shows the right location of the two countries
A.　B.　C.　D.
(　　)28.What do we know about a delta according to this passage
A. A delta usually appears at the mouth of a river.
B. A delta is usually a large square area.
C. A delta is usually a very dry part of a desert.
D. A delta is not a good place for wildlife to live in.
(　　)29.What does the underlined word "disappears" mean in the second paragraph
A. Comes out. B. Goes away.
C. Gets off. D. Picks up.
(　　)30.Why do some safari companies have rights to operate in the Okavango Delta
A. Because they can make more people live in the Delta.
B. Because they can help visitors go there not only by air.
C. Because they can develop these areas by building factories.
D. Because they can protect the Delta better by properly developing.
D
　　I like travelling. I have been to many places, such as Beijing and Shanghai. Yet, I still have a wish — to go somewhere to experience differences and changes.
Thanks to the Belt and Road Initiative("一带一路"倡议), my mother's university has a Polish Research Center. I got to meet a boy named Tomek. He came to China with his mother from Poland(波兰) this summer vacation. We were so excited to meet each other. He found it interesting to learn Chinese and Chinese culture. I even taught him some Quanzhou dialect(方言). It was a fun experience for me.
Then I began to wonder how these two countries, thousands of kilometers apart, are able to be closely linked today. My mother told me it was because of the Belt and Road Initiative. More than 2,000 years ago, Chinese people explored and opened up routes of trade and cultural exchanges. This was called the Silk Road.
I live in Quanzhou, which is the starting point for the Maritime Silk Road. I want to go to other countries which take part in the Belt and Road Initiative, including Russia, Pakistan and Poland. I want to make many friends like Tomek from these countries. I want to bring Chinese gifts to foreign friends and tell them stories about China. Also, I want to see the beautiful views around the world.

四、(2021·河北承德一模改编)任务型阅读(共5小题,计10分)
　　阅读下面短文,按要求完成36~40题。
　　English is the first language of over 300 million people. However, it has many differences. British, American and South African English are all spoken differently. In many English language courses, the differences are taught.
Probably the biggest difference between British and American English is the vocabulary. Different words and expressions are used to talk about the same thing. For example, in America, people throw their garbage into the trash can. In Britain, people throw their rubbish into the dustbin. In Britain, people take a lift to the fifth floor. In America, people take an elevator.
The expressions can also be different. For example, the British will ask "What will you do at the weekend " but Americans usually say "on the weekend". In America people usually say "I've gotten a new bike", but in Britain they will say "I've just got a new bike".
The pronunciation in British and American English is also different, even when the spelling is the same. The word "tomato" is a classic example of this.
English is different in different parts of the world. Learning all these is not easy, so English learners should just know that they are always there.
