Much meaning can be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) conveyed clearly with our eyes．So it is often said that eyes can speak．Do you have such kind of 36 ？In a bus you may look at a 37 but not too long．And if he is _38 that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable．
The same is in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) daily life．If you are looked at for more than 39 ,you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you．If 40 goes wrong, you will feel angry toward others’ stare at you that way．Eyes do 41 ,right
Looking too l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ong at someone may seem to be rude and 42 . But things are different when it comes to staring at the 43 sex．If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and 44 to avert （转移） his gaze, his intentions are obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is 45 her. 46, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in a 47 is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is 48 ．If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to control you, you will feel uneasy．A poor 49 usually exposes himself by looking too long at the 50 ,since he believes the 51 idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of 52 communication．Quite the contrary．
In fact, continuous e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ye contact is confined to 53 only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show 54 that words cannot express．
Evidently,eye contact ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )should be done according to the relationship between two people and 55 situation．

语篇解读 本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，主要讲述了作者在和家人驱车旅游途中遇到了一位“看门人”，作者为“看门人”买了一份午餐的故事。这个故事告诉我们要学会向他人表达我们的感谢并关爱他人。
1．解析： 考查形容词辨析。句意 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )为：当我们走到一家餐馆的门口时，一个胡子杂乱，头发脏兮兮的男人从餐馆外的一个凳子上跳了下来，为我们开了门。与“and dirty hair”相呼应，此处应填messy，意为“乱糟糟的”，故选B。
答案： B
2．解析： 考查名词辨析。句意为：尽管 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )外表邋遢，但他跟我们友好地打招呼。该句与上文描述的邋遢形象相呼应，故选项B符合文意。service服务；state状态；attitude态度，均不符合语境，故排除。
答案： B
3．解析： 考查动词辨析。句意为： ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )一走进饭馆里，我的女儿们就小声说：“妈妈，那个人臭烘烘的。”根据上文描述的那个人的邋遏可推测，那个人身上气味难闻，故D符合语境。
答案： D
4．解析： 考查介词辨析。句意为：在 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )我们点过午餐后，我解释说不要只看到别人身上的污垢。由下文作者为这个男人点午餐又和他握手，可知，作者并不嫌弃他脏，这里作者是告诉孩子看人不要只看到一个人外表的脏。故答案A符合文意。look over检查；look around环顾；look into调查，朝里面看，均不符合语境，故排除。
答案： A
5．解析： 考查动词辨析。句意为：接着 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )我们看到其他人来到这个餐馆，但是许多人都对这个“看门人”视而不见(ignore)。根据下文“Seeing this rudeness truly upset me.”可推知，许多人对他视而不见，这是不礼貌的。故B项符合文意。hate憎恨；miss想念，错过；refuse拒绝，均不符合语境，故排除。

答案： D
7．解析： 考查形容词辨析。句意为 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )：然而有时当事情不对劲时，做个好榜样不是那么容易的事(tough)。根据本句中yet可知，想为孩子们身体力行并不那么容易，和那个脏兮兮的人接触不是每个人都能做到的，故D项符合文意。stressful有压力的；accessible可得到的；awkward尴尬的，均不符合语境。
答案： D
8．解析： 考查动词辨析 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )。句意为：由于前面的旅途风会很大，孩子们需要晕车药，因此我以此为借口(excuse)离开饭桌去给他们取药。根据上文作者要为孩子做榜样，所以此处作者正好需要为孩子拿晕车药，故以此为借口，故答案A符合文意。refresh振奋；prevent阻止；forgive原谅，均不符合语境，故排除。

9．解析： 考查名词辨析。句意为： ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )他们从他的身边匆匆走过，甚至不愿意承认他的存在。company公司，陪伴；presence存在；challenge挑战；attack攻击。根据句意和上文语境可知，答案B符合文意。

答案： C
11．解析： 考查连词辨析。句意为 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )：他说除非(unless)他买东西，否则他是不允许到餐馆里去的。根据空格前后两个句子之间的逻辑关系可知，答案B符合文意。before在……之前；though尽管；since自从，均不符合语境，故排除。

答案： A
13．解析： 考查形容词辨析。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句意为：因为我们已经吃过饭了，所以当我又点餐时，孩子们都很困惑(puzzled)。故答案C符合文意。根据本句后半部分“...as we had already eaten...”可知，作者的行为使孩子们感到很疑惑，故答案C符合文意。concerned关切的；excited兴奋的：bored无聊的，均不符合语境，故排除。
答案： C
14．解析： 考查动词辨析。句意为：当我们要 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )继续(continue)旅行时。我发现那个“看门人”正在享用他的午餐。根据文章第一句和第二段最后一句中的“With the windiest trip ahead...”可知，作者一家人在旅行中途停下来吃饭，吃完饭还要继续旅行，故答案D符合文意。

【解析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。一个 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )人应该认识到自己的长处和短处，然后充分发挥自己的长处，对世界作出自己最大的贡献，这就是爱因斯坦放弃当以色列总统而潜心于物理学研究的原因。
1. D 根据前文提到的我们 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )不能做好所有的事，而且有许多事情我们根本就做不了，再结合空格前表示转折意义的But可知，这里应该是指我们每个人都有自己的“天赋(gifts)”。
2．B 此处构成offer sb.sth.搭配，再结合下一个空后的by the offer可知答案。
3．C 尽管他拒绝担任以色列总统，但对此他仍然深受(deeply)感动。
4．A 从and前的平行词saddened可知只有“惭愧的(ashamed)”符合语境。
5．C 这里指缺少“与生俱来的(natural)”的资质(即天赋)，即不适合当总统。
6．B 爱因斯坦认为自己缺乏天赋和经验来行使“官方的(official)”职能。
7．D 指履行总统的职责。fulfill意为“完成，履行”。
8．C 从前文提到的原因可知他“缺少(lack)”必要的政治上的才能。
9．D 知道自己的不足真的会令我们感到“羞耻(shame)”吗？
10．B 知道自己的不足，然后“把精力集中在(focus on)”自己能做好的事情上。
11．A 指我们可能认识到也可能没有“认识到(recognize)”这个道理，即上一段最后两句提到的道理。
12．D 根据上文可知应该是我们很少有人能成为爱因斯坦，但我们仍然能对生活作出有意义的贡献。
13．A 从上题分析可知，此处contribute to意为“对……有贡献”。
14．B 当我们知道自己能做什么……由于宾语从句we can do缺少宾语且空格处还引导宾语从句，故用what。
15．C 显然我们应该找出自己的长处，做好自己能做的事情。that particular thing指我们发现自己能做的那件事。承德市2016高考英语二轮：完形填空选练（1）及参考答案

语篇解读 本文是说明文，介绍了肢体语言的作用，以及在不同文化里肢体语言的不同含义。通过学习本文我们可以了解文化的趣味性。
1．解析： 由首句“肢体语言是所有 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )语言中沉默、秘密而又最有威力的语言！”可知，本句应表示“肢体语言比语言更有说服力”，所以本题选择louder。
答案： B
2．解析： 我们的肢体发出多于我们可以 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )想象到的信息。身体发出的是message“信息”，而不是sound。sound泛指自然界一切声音；invitation邀请；feeling感情，感受。
答案： D
3．解析： 事实上，非言语交际占据了我们想表达的大约50%。mean意思是，意味着。
答案： D
4．解析： 根据下文论述，当涉及 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )跨文化交流时，肢体语言尤为重要，故选important重要的。immediate立刻的，表示动作的直接性和迅速性；misleading误导的；difficult困难的。
答案： C
5．解析： 肢体语言几乎 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )已经成为我们的组成部分，以致常常被忽视。此处实际上是对“so much a(n)＋名词”的用法的考查。四个选项中有此用法的只有much。
答案： C
6．解析： 下文是举例，故选For example“例如”。thus因此；however然而；in short简而言之。
答案： A
7．解析： 不同的社会对人们之间的距离有不同认识。空格后面的北欧人和拉丁美洲人等的例子都与distance“距离”有关。
答案： B
8．解析： 北欧人通常不喜欢肢体的接触，故选bodily“身体的”，下文的touch each other是提示。
答案： C
9．解析： 北欧人不喜欢和朋友有肢体上的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )接触，更不用说陌生人了。enemy虽然与friend相对，但此处是说不同国度文化的差异，并不是敌我的分歧。
答案： A
10．解析： 由上文可知，此处表 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )示语意上的转折，故选on the other hand“另一方面”，本句讲到拉丁美洲人喜欢肢体接触。in other words换句话说；in a similar way用相似的方法；by all means当然可以。
答案： B
11．解析： trouble麻烦 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )；conversation谈话，交谈；silence寂静，沉默；experiment实验。in conversation在交谈中，在会话中。
答案： B
12．解析： 在交谈中， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )北欧人不喜欢肢体接触，拉丁美洲人喜欢肢体接触，所以我们看到的很可能是一个拉丁美洲人跟随一个挪威人移动，故选following“跟随”。
答案： D
13．解析： 拉丁美洲人喜欢肢体接触，为了表示友好，会离挪威人越来越近，故选closer(更近地)。
答案： A

(201*·湖南卷)
People in communiti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )es have slowly been pushed apart through the years, mostly because people simply aren't taking the time to say a simple “hello”. After considering this phenomenon, I decided I was going to __36__ the way I was doing things.
My __37__ came one m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )orning when I was in the community library. I passed by a girl who __38__ her books out of her locker. Thinking like most that someone else would help her pick them up, I continued my way. However, when I had to __39__ because I stupidly forgot my book, I noticed she had just finished packing them up by herself. No one had stopped to __40__ her.
“OK，” ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )I thought to myself, “this is where I should have changed.”
My best oppo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rtunity came a few days later when I saw a man __41__ by himself waiting for the library to open, so I sat down next to him and began a __42__. It was difficult to get started, and even when I had to say goodbye, almost every __43__ from my new friend had a tone (语气) of doubt in it.And who could blame him
People aren't used t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o making an __44__ chat with a stranger. But a change, no matter how __45__ it is needed, doesn't just happen.

【全文大意】文章通过作者记叙自己在社区图书馆的经历，来劝告人们通过尝试与陌生人交流来增进彼此之间的关系，符合了当下“和谐社会”的大环境。
【解析】36. A 考查动词。根据文义 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，作者在思考了社区内人与人之间距离逐渐疏远这一现象后，决定改变之前的行为。值得注意的是，后文即对作者的行为进行描述，第三段的最后一词即为change，符合前后对应原则。
【解析】37. D 考查名词。句意：一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )天早上，当我在社区图书馆的时候，我的……出现了。可以通过理解得出答案，但也可以简单地按照完形名词解题法寻找重复，第四段第三个词即为答案。
【解析】38. B 考查动词。对应后文pick up，可知小女孩之前是书掉落，选dropped。
【解析】39. C 考查短语。根据文义，作者后来发现没人帮助小女孩，说明作者必定重新返回原来的地方。
【解析】40. C 考查动词。前文someone else和后文的no one对应，所以动作也应该对应，所以选help。
【解析】41. A 考查动词。后文so是解题点，说明作者的动作也和一位男士的动作一致，故选sitting。
【解析】42. D 考查名词。寻找重复后发现，第44题后面一个词chat即为本题答案，因此选chat的同义词conversation。
【解析】43. B 考查名词。句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )意：我的新朋友的每个……中都显示出怀疑的语气。joke，cry和story在文中均未提及，直接排除，选response。
【解析】44. B 考查形 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )容词。此题考查文章归纳总结能力。文章说：对于一个陌生人，人们并不习惯于进行……的交谈。此句是由前文作者对于陌生人的反应而总结出来的。前文作者对陌生人的交谈很不顺利，如何开始、如何结束都显得十分困难，因此本题应选择与“困难”相近的词。纵观备选项，unprepared(未准备好的，即兴的)较符合文义。
【解析】45. A 考查副词。句意 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )：和陌生人交谈的方式的改变无论是……的需要，它都不会发生。此题单纯从文义理解比较困难，建议用排除法。frequently, simply, widely这3个选项均不是文章讨论的内容，可以排除，剩下答案desperately(十分，非常地)修饰这种需要的迫切程度。
【解析】46. D 考查动词。最后一段作者针对与陌生人疏远这种情况，建议人们努力改善，答案则容易得出。
【解析】47. C 对应第一段的apart，此处应选择相对应的反义词closer。
