A
There is one language used in every country in the world. It is everybody’s second language. It is easy to
understand, although you can’t hear it. It is sign language.
For example, when you wave to a friend who is across the street, you are using sign language. When you smile
at someone, you are saying, “I want to be friendly”, but you are not using speech. You are using sign language.
When you raise your hand in class, you are saying, “Please ask me. I think I know the correct answer.” A policeman
is using sign language when he holds up his hands to stop traffic. Even a baby can use sign language when she
points at things that she wants.
Many years ago, a French priest（牧师）called Charles Michel invented a finger alphabet（字母表）for deaf
people. It is still in use. People can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands, and deaf people can
read and understand them. Soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries. The only university for the deaf
is Gallaudet College in Washington, D.C.
Today, in the US, there are special TV news programs for deaf people. The newsreader tells the news in sign
language. At the same time, the words appear on the TV screen.
The actors in the Theatre of Deaf don’t spell every word. Sometimes they use hand signs. When they put one
hand above and the other below, empty in the middle, it means sandwich. They can make a roof with their hands
when they want to show a house. One finger in front of an actor’s mouth can mean quiet. You can talk to people
behind closed windows. And when you go swimming with your friends, you can have conversations under water.

Sign language is a kind of body language. Body language includes eye contact, walking postures, standing
postures and gestures. Body language can express all kinds of thoughts and feelings. Different cultures have
different body language. Here are some common gestures in different cultures.
In China, a thumb-up sign is used to praise someone for being “good”, “great” and “smart”. In America, a
thumb-up sign means “It’s good” or “It’s OK” while a thumb-down sign means the opposite (相反的). _________,
For example, in Japan, that also means “man”, “your father” and “the highest”.
In South Korea, it also means “the chief”, “one’s own father”, “minister” and “captain”. In Australia, the
United States, Mexico and other countries, it means “the fate of prayer (祈祷的命运)”. As for French people and
Indians, this gesture can be used when asking for a ride.
Point with your forefinger (食指). It is very impolite in Europe and America. British and American people
make a circle with the thumb and forefinger and the other three fingers keep straight, which means “Excellent”.
Put out your forefinger. In the United States, it’s used to ask someone to wait; French people ask for an answer by
using this gesture; In Myanmar, it means “please”; In Singapore, it shows something or someone is the most
important.
Hold out your forefinger and middle finger and make the V word. “V” is the first letter of victory (胜利), so it
4 / 10
means “victory” in Britain, France and other countries. But in Serbia, the gesture stands for “heroism” and in the
Netherlands, it stands for “freedom”.

BODY language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all! It is said that our body movements
communicate about 50 per cent of what we really mean while words themselves only express 7 per cent. So, while
your mouth is closed, just what is your body saying...
Arms. How you hold your arms shows how open and receptive you are to people you meet. If you keep your
arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes
your way. Outgoing people generally use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to
their bodies. If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show you're unhappy!
Head.When you want to appear confident, keep your head level. If you are monitor in class, you can also take
on this position when you want your words to be taken seriously. However, to be friendly in listening or speaking,
you must move your head a little to one side.
Legs. Your legs tend to move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies. If you are at
interviews, try to keep them still!
Posture (姿势). A good posture makes you feel better about yourself. If you are feeling down, you normally
don't sit straight, with your shoulders inwards. This makes breathing more difficult, which in turn can make you
feel nervous or uncomfortable.
Mouth. When you are thinking, you often purse your lips (噘起嘴). You might also use this position to hold
back an angry comment you don't wish to show. However, it will probably still be noticed, and people will know
you're not pleased.

A. three B. four C. five D. six
