Have you met someone who kept talking and talking, and you couldn’t get them to stop You don’t want to be impolite by telling them to shut up, but you really want to get out of the conversation. Here are some ways to help you.
Use body language. While it may feel impolite, you could turn away, leave your headphones on, and avoid looking at his or her eyes, which will show that you don’t want to talk. This may save you from directly telling someone to stop talking later on.
Keep working on whatever activity you are doing. Get up and move around, be active and find little things to do instead of listening.
Interrupt them as soon as you can. Saying things like “I’d like to add something” or “If I could interrupt you for just a minute” will often let someone know that they are talking too much.
Lead the conversation. This is especially helpful when dealing with someone you often talk to. Let them know that you heard what they said and guide the conversation in a different direction.
Mention that you don’t have a lot of time to talk. Expressions like “I would love to chat(聊天) but I have to go for a movie right now” and “Today’s not a great day to talk. I have a lot of tasks” will make you easily end the conversation.
Remember it is a skill to back out of a conversation without saying “You are boring. Shut up.”
46．How many suggestions does the writer mention in the text
A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. D．Six.
47．Which of the following is the best way to make someone stop talking
A．Saying someone is boring. B．Getting up and finding something else to do.
C．Looking at him or her and listening carefully. D．Leaving your headphones off and keep smiling.
48．What does the underlined word “Interrupt” mean in Chinese
A．离开 B．打断 C．倾听 D．接受
49．What can we know according to the text
A．We can end a conversation easily.
B．Don’t stop talking until someone ends it.
C．To end a conversation politely, we need to get skills.
D．It’s impolite to guide a conversation in a different direction.
50．What’s the best title for the text
A．How to End a Conversation Politely B．Polite Ways to Start a Conversation
C．How to Lead and Guide a Conversation D．Body Language Helps Express Well
D
We talked with June Galloway about her book Get off on the Right Foot: Don’t Let the Wrong Gesture (手势) Ruin Your Day.
English is an international language. But in your book, communication without words is paid more attention to. ▲
June：Well, gestures and other body languages have different meanings in different places. Something that you think is friendly or polite could be considered to be very impolite in another culture. I’ve described many of these customs and cultural differences, so my readers won’t get off on the wrong foot when they meet people from places where the culture is different from their own.
Can greeting someone the wrong way really lead to misunderstanding
June：In some places, yes. The heavy handshake that a North American expects may seem quite impolite in other places. And a light handshake—which is usual in some countries—may seem unfriendly to a North American.
What other gestures can cause misunderstanding
June：Take the gesture for “Come here” for example. In North America, people gesture with the palm(掌心) up. Well, in southern Europe, that gesture means “goodbye”. And in many Asian countries, the palm-up gesture is thought rude. Instead, people there gesture with the palm down.
Surely, there must be some gestures used everywhere, right What about the thumb-up(翘拇指)gesture for “great”
June：Sorry. That’s very rude in Australia and the Middle East. That is why it’s important to know about body language and cultural differences.
51．Which of the following can be put in ▲
A．How is it going B．Why is that so important
C．Can you give us some examples D．Could it make readers interested
52．What does June mean by saying “my readers won’t get off on the wrong foot”
A．Her readers won’t hurt others. B．Her readers won’t have a bad start.
C．Her readers won’t know how to walk. D．Her readers will always know where to go.
53．Which gesture should you use if you want to say “goodbye” in southern Europe
A． B． C． D．
54．According to the passage, which is NOT mentioned in June’s book
A．Some common gestures. B．Different meanings of a gesture.
C．The importance of body language. D．The development of body language.
55．Which of the following is TRUE
A．A light handshake is quite polite in North America.
B．June mainly talks about the English language in her book.
C．The book is helpful to those who often travel around the world.
D．If you want to say “great” to an Australian, just make a thumb-up gesture.
三、阅读还原（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）
请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺、结构完整，并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。一空一句。
Many people often meet such a difficult situation. It’s that they don’t know the way in new places, and they are too shy to ask people for the way. 56
Firstly, you must know some important and useful expressions, such as “Could you please... ” “Excuse me” and “Thanks a lot”. For example, when we want to ask strangers for the way, we should say “Excuse me” first. This is a very useful expression. 57 Next, “Could you please... ” is often used while we ask for the direction. 58 It’s also polite to shake hands with the strangers.
Secondly, we often need to take some useful things with us. They usually include pens, special maps, photos and so on. 59 We can write down the crucial（关键性的）words about the place, and then we can show them to the stranger who we want to ask for help. Of course, the map can help us find the correct way. 60 Then we can use the map to know the directions and find the right place.
A．Sometimes a pen can help us get to the right place.
B．In the USA, people also use it in many different situations.
C．We can use a camera to help us.
D．After we know how to get to the place, we should say “Thanks” to others.
E．When we go to a strange place, we can take a map with us.
F．Some people don’t like to use it at all.
G．Here are two tips on how to ask for the way politely.

Some people have a very poor sense of 61 (direct). Unluckily I am one of them. I have visited a place many 62 (time) but I may still get lost there.
When I was a little girl, I was afraid to ask 63 (strange) the way. Now, I am no longer shy about 64 (ask) people for directions, but I often receive 65 (help) or even wrong information. So I try not to give people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way. I always say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once 66 my way to work, a man stopped me. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I 67 (give) him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him 68 (wait).
When I just got to my office, the secretary (秘书) showed the man who asked me for directions. Imagine 69 embarrassed I was and how 70 (surprise) he was when we saw each other!
阅读短文回答问题（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
There are some apologetic terms (表示歉意的用语) in English. It seems that they mean the same thing. They almost do. However, what’s the difference between “Pardon ”, “I’m sorry”, “Excuse me” and “What ”.
Pardon
Americans don’t really use “Pardon ”. If you do, they will probably joke that you’re trying to sound pretentious (炫耀的) or joke that you’re British.
I’m sorry.
We often use “I’m sorry” for past events. That’s to say, it is generally used to apologize for something you have already done. For example, if you step on someone’s foot on a crowded bus, you would say “I’m sorry” or “Sorry”.
Excuse me.
This is generally a term to ask permission (允许) for something. For example, you’re walking through a crowded space and someone is in your way. You would say “Excuse me” to ask him/her to move out of your way.
What
Americans usually use it to ask someone to repeat himself/herself. If you want to be politer, you could say, I’m sorry, what was that ” or “Excuse me, what did you say ” or any other such thing. Most Americans just say “What ” though.
In our daily life, we can also use these terms by mixing them up. You could, for example, ask someone to move by saying “Sorry, would you mind moving ” It’s an extra-polite way to make your request.
根据短文内容，完成下列各题。
71．Who say “Pardon ” more often, Americans or the British
72．Which term is used for future events according to the passage
73．When do Americans usually say “What ”
74．请将画线句子翻译成汉语。
75．What is the passage mainly about

Have you met someone who kept talking and talking, and you couldn’t get them to stop You don’t want to be impolite by telling them to shut up, but you really want to get out of the conversation. Here are some ways to help you.
Use body language. While it may feel impolite, you could turn away, leave your headphones on, and avoid looking at his or her eyes, which will show that you don’t want to talk. This may save you from directly telling someone to stop talking later on.
Keep working on whatever activity you are doing. Get up and move around, be active and find little things to do instead of listening.
Interrupt them as soon as you can. Saying things like “I’d like to add something” or “If I could interrupt you for just a minute” will often let someone know that they are talking too much.
Lead the conversation. This is especially helpful when dealing with someone you often talk to. Let them know that you heard what they said and guide the conversation in a different direction.
Mention that you don’t have a lot of time to talk. Expressions like “I would love to chat(聊天) but I have to go for a movie right now” and “Today’s not a great day to talk. I have a lot of tasks” will make you easily end the conversation.
Remember it is a skill to back out of a conversation without saying “You are boring. Shut up.”
46．How many suggestions does the writer mention in the text
A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. D．Six.
47．Which of the following is the best way to make someone stop talking
A．Saying someone is boring. B．Getting up and finding something else to do.
C．Looking at him or her and listening carefully. D．Leaving your headphones off and keep smiling.
48．What does the underlined word “Interrupt” mean in Chinese
A．离开 B．打断 C．倾听 D．接受
49．What can we know according to the text
A．We can end a conversation easily.
B．Don’t stop talking until someone ends it.
C．To end a conversation politely, we need to get skills.
D．It’s impolite to guide a conversation in a different direction.
50．What’s the best title for the text
A．How to End a Conversation Politely B．Polite Ways to Start a Conversation
C．How to Lead and Guide a Conversation D．Body Language Helps Express Well
【答案】46．C 47．B 48．B 49．C 50．A

46．细节理解题。根据“Use body language.”，“Keep working on whatever activity you are doing.”，“Interrupt them as soon as you can”，“Lead the conversation.”，“Mention that you don’t have a lot of time to talk.”可知，作者一共提出了5条建议。故选C。
47．细节理解题。根据“Get up and move around, be active and find little things to do instead of listening.”可知，站起来四处走动，找点别的事情做可以礼貌地使别人停止讲话。故选B。
48．词句猜测题。根据“Saying things like ‘I’d like to add something’ or ‘If I could interrupt you for just a minute’ will often let someone know that they are talking too much.”可知，说一些像“我想补充一些东西”或者“如果我能……你一分钟”的话通常会让别人知道他们说得太多了，因此可推知interrupt意为“打断”，Interrupt them as soon as you can“尽快打断他们”。故选B。
49．细节理解题。根据“Remember it is a skill to back out of a conversation without saying ‘You are boring. Shut up.’”可知，为了礼貌地结束一次对话，我们需要掌握一些技巧，故选C。

We talked with June Galloway about her book Get off on the Right Foot: Don’t Let the Wrong Gesture (手势) Ruin Your Day.
English is an international language. But in your book, communication without words is paid more attention to. ▲
June：Well, gestures and other body languages have different meanings in different places. Something that you think is friendly or polite could be considered to be very impolite in another culture. I’ve described many of these customs and cultural differences, so my readers won’t get off on the wrong foot when they meet people from places where the culture is different from their own.
Can greeting someone the wrong way really lead to misunderstanding
June：In some places, yes. The heavy handshake that a North American expects may seem quite impolite in other places. And a light handshake—which is usual in some countries—may seem unfriendly to a North American.
What other gestures can cause misunderstanding
June：Take the gesture for “Come here” for example. In North America, people gesture with the palm(掌心) up. Well, in southern Europe, that gesture means “goodbye”. And in many Asian countries, the palm-up gesture is thought rude. Instead, people there gesture with the palm down.
Surely, there must be some gestures used everywhere, right What about the thumb-up(翘拇指)gesture for “great”
June：Sorry. That’s very rude in Australia and the Middle East. That is why it’s important to know about body language and cultural differences.
51．Which of the following can be put in ▲
A．How is it going B．Why is that so important
C．Can you give us some examples D．Could it make readers interested
52．What does June mean by saying “my readers won’t get off on the wrong foot”
A．Her readers won’t hurt others. B．Her readers won’t have a bad start.
C．Her readers won’t know how to walk. D．Her readers will always know where to go.
53．Which gesture should you use if you want to say “goodbye” in southern Europe
A． B． C． D．
54．According to the passage, which is NOT mentioned in June’s book
A．Some common gestures. B．Different meanings of a gesture.
C．The importance of body language. D．The development of body language.
55．Which of the following is TRUE
A．A light handshake is quite polite in North America.
B．June mainly talks about the English language in her book.
C．The book is helpful to those who often travel around the world.
D．If you want to say “great” to an Australian, just make a thumb-up gesture.
【答案】51．B 52．B 53．A 54．D 55．C
【导语】本文主要是作者June Galloway介绍她的书Get off on the Right Foot: Don’t Let the Wrong Gesture (手势) Ruin Your Day，通过不同手势语在不同文化中的差异来讲述非言语交流的重要性。
51．推理判断题。由“communication without words is paid more attention to.”以及“gestures and other body languages have different meanings in different places.”可知该处是在说明非言语交流的重要性。故选B。
52．推理判断题。由“I’ve described many of these customs and cultural differences.”可知即使遇到来自与自己文化不同的地方的人时，也不用担心会出错，故选B。
53．细节理解题。根据“Take the gesture for “Come here” for example. In North America, people gesture with the palm(掌心) up. Well, in southern Europe, that gesture means “goodbye”.”可知掌心朝上在南欧意味着再见，故选A。
54．细节理解题。根据“gestures and other body languages have different meanings in different places.”和“Take the gesture for “Come here” for example.”以及“That is why it’s important to know about body language and cultural differences.”可知手势的不同含义，一些日常手势，身体语言的重要性都有在原文提及到，身体语言的发展没有提到，故选D。
55．细节理解题。由“gestures and other body languages have different meanings in different places.”和“That is why it’s important to know about body language and cultural differences.”可知这本书对于那些到不同地方旅游的人很有帮助，可以了解到当地的身体语言的含义。故选C。
三、阅读还原（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）
请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺、结构完整，并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。一空一句。
Many people often meet such a difficult situation. It’s that they don’t know the way in new places, and they are too shy to ask people for the way. 56
Firstly, you must know some important and useful expressions, such as “Could you please... ” “Excuse me” and “Thanks a lot”. For example, when we want to ask strangers for the way, we should say “Excuse me” first. This is a very useful expression. 57 Next, “Could you please... ” is often used while we ask for the direction. 58 It’s also polite to shake hands with the strangers.
Secondly, we often need to take some useful things with us. They usually include pens, special maps, photos and so on. 59 We can write down the crucial（关键性的）words about the place, and then we can show them to the stranger who we want to ask for help. Of course, the map can help us find the correct way. 60 Then we can use the map to know the directions and find the right place.
A．Sometimes a pen can help us get to the right place.
B．In the USA, people also use it in many different situations.
C．We can use a camera to help us.
D．After we know how to get to the place, we should say “Thanks” to others.
E．When we go to a strange place, we can take a map with us.
F．Some people don’t like to use it at all.
G．Here are two tips on how to ask for the way politely.
【答案】56．G 57．B 58．D 59．A 60．E
【分析】文意大意：许多人遇到过不知道路但又不好意思问的情况。本文就“如何礼貌地问路”给出了两条建议。
56．根据文章第一段第二句It’s that they don’t know the way in new places, and they are too shy to ask people for the way. “他们不知道新地方的路，他们太害羞了，不敢向人问路”，以及后面Firstly，Secondly，可知，这里有两个如何礼貌问路的小贴士，引出下文，故答案选G。
57．根据前句This is a very useful expression.“它是非常有用的表达”可知，非常常用，能够用到“Excuse me”的场合有很多，因此，很多场合都会用到“Excuse me”，故答案选B。
58．根据下句“It’s also polite to shake hands with the strangers.”可推知，此处表达的是问完路之后应向他人表示感谢，故答案选D。
59．根据后句We can write down the crucial（关键性的）words about the place, and then we can show them to the stranger who we want to ask for help. “我们可以写下这个地方的关键词汇，然后把它们展示给我们想求助的陌生人。”可知需要笔，故答案选A。
60．根据前句Of course, the map can help us find the correct way.“当然，这个地图也能帮助我们找到正确的路”，可知，我需要携带地图，故答案选E。
四、短文填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）

Some people have a very poor sense of 61 (direct). Unluckily I am one of them. I have visited a place many 62 (time) but I may still get lost there.
When I was a little girl, I was afraid to ask 63 (strange) the way. Now, I am no longer shy about 64 (ask) people for directions, but I often receive 65 (help) or even wrong information. So I try not to give people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way. I always say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once 66 my way to work, a man stopped me. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I 67 (give) him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him 68 (wait).
When I just got to my office, the secretary (秘书) showed the man who asked me for directions. Imagine 69 embarrassed I was and how 70 (surprise) he was when we saw each other!
【答案】
61．direction 62．times 63．strangers 64．asking 65．helpless 66．on 67．gave 68．waiting 69．how 70．surprised
【导语】本文讲述的是因为作者自己方向感很差，所以当有人问路时，总是拒绝给别人指路。有一次又有一个人向作者问路，作者像往常一样拒绝了他。但是随后就意识到那个地方正是自己工作的地方，可已经来不及了。当作者在办公室里见到那个陌生人时，作者感到非常的尴尬。

阅读短文回答问题（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
There are some apologetic terms (表示歉意的用语) in English. It seems that they mean the same thing. They almost do. However, what’s the difference between “Pardon ”, “I’m sorry”, “Excuse me” and “What ”.
Pardon
Americans don’t really use “Pardon ”. If you do, they will probably joke that you’re trying to sound pretentious (炫耀的) or joke that you’re British.
I’m sorry.
We often use “I’m sorry” for past events. That’s to say, it is generally used to apologize for something you have already done. For example, if you step on someone’s foot on a crowded bus, you would say “I’m sorry” or “Sorry”.
Excuse me.
This is generally a term to ask permission (允许) for something. For example, you’re walking through a crowded space and someone is in your way. You would say “Excuse me” to ask him/her to move out of your way.
What
Americans usually use it to ask someone to repeat himself/herself. If you want to be politer, you could say, I’m sorry, what was that ” or “Excuse me, what did you say ” or any other such thing. Most Americans just say “What ” though.
In our daily life, we can also use these terms by mixing them up. You could, for example, ask someone to move by saying “Sorry, would you mind moving ” It’s an extra-polite way to make your request.
根据短文内容，完成下列各题。
71．Who say “Pardon ” more often, Americans or the British
72．Which term is used for future events according to the passage
73．When do Americans usually say “What ”
74．请将画线句子翻译成汉语。
75．What is the passage mainly about
【答案】71．The British.
“Excuse me” is used for future events.
They usually say “What ” to ask someone to repeat himself/herself.
美国人通常用它来让别人重复他/她自己（的话）。
75．The differences among some apologetic terms in English.
【导语】本文主要讲述了英语中一些表示歉意的用语的区别。
71．根据文中“Americans don’t really use ‘Pardon ’. If you do, they will probably ... joke that you’re British.”可知，英国人更加经常用“pardon？”，故填The British.
72．根据文中“For example, you’re walking through a crowded space and someone is in your way. You would say ‘Excuse me’ to ask him/her to move out of your way.”可知，“Excuse me”被用在未来的事件中，故填“Excuse me” is used for future events.
73．根据文中“Americans usually use it to ask someone to repeat himself/herself.”可知，当他们想要别人重复他/她的话的时候，通常会说“What”，故填They usually say “What ” to ask someone to repeat himself/herself.
74．分析句子可知，本句是陈述句，Americans翻译为“美国人”；usually翻译为“通常”；use it to ask someone翻译为“用它来要求别人”；repeat himself/herself翻译为“重复他/她自己（的话）”，故填“美国人通常用它来让别人重复他/她自己（的话）。”
75．根据文中“However, what’s the difference between ‘Pardon ’, ‘I’m sorry’, ‘Excuse me’ and ‘What ’.”以及全文可知，本文主要讲述了英语中一些表示歉意的用语的区别。故填The differences among some apologetic terms in English.
