阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
“When studying foreign languages, don't forget about body language，” Anne Merritt said.
Something as simple as a gesture can show friendliness in one culture, embarrassment in another, impatience in a third. Even silence means different things in different places. If you want to avoid making some mistakes when traveling abroad, you should pay attention to the following.
Touch
Britain, along with many countries in northern Europe and the Far East, has a “non contact” culture. In those countries, there is very little physical contact in people's daily talks. Even touching someone's arm by accident is the reason for an apology. However, in the high contact cultures of the Middle East, Latin America, and southern Europe, physical touch is a big part of daily life.
What's more, there are different standards for the touch. In much of the Arab world, men hold hands and kiss each other in greeting, but would never do the same with a woman. In Thailand and Laos, it is a taboo (禁忌) to touch anyone's head, even children's. In South Korea, elders can touch younger people with force when trying to get through a crowd, but younger people can't do the same.
Eye contact
In most Western countries, frequent eye contact is a sign of confidence and attentiveness (专注). We may think that a conversation partner who looks away is either not listening to us or lying. Of course, this is not the standard around the world.
In many Asian, African, and Latin American countries, the unbroken (不间断的) eye contact would be considered impolite and rude. These cultures consider avoiding eye contact a sign of respect for bosses and elders. In these parts of the world, children won't look at an adult who is speaking to them, and nor will employees look at their bosses.
21．In Britain, when people are talking, they usually ________．
A．avoid eye contact
B．touch the others' arms
C．avoid physical contact
D．apologize for their mistakes
22．In southern Europe, physical touch is ________．
A．unnecessary B．impolite
C．dangerous D．common
23．What does this passage mainly tell us
A．How to have a good time abroad.
B．The importance of body language.
C．How to communicate with foreigners.
D．An introduction to some body languages.
B
As a young boy, I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling. And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven, I sold sponge rubber (海绵橡胶) door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms, I knew it was safe to continue with my show because they weren't angry or threatening although they may have a cold attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans (锅碗瓢盆) salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them close and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance (保险) business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this__new__area,__and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.
24．What does the author seem to share in Paragraph 1
A．His present feelings.
B．His positive life attitude.
C．His language ability.
D．His earlier experience.
25．What does the underlined part “this new area” in the last paragraph refer to
A．The life insurance business.
B．The pots and pans industry.
C．The study of body language.
D．The selling of sponge rubber.
26．What was the key to the author's success
A．Listening to customers.
B．Arguing with customers.
C．Studying customers' words.
D．Reading customers' body language.
27．How does the text mainly develop
A．By following the order of space.
B．By following the order of time.
C．By giving examples.
D．By giving reasons.
C
Researchers say that they have understood the meaning of gestures that wild monkeys use to communicate. They say that wild monkeys can communicate 19 specific messages to one another with a “vocabulary” of 66 gestures. The scientists discovered this by following and filming groups of monkeys in Uganda, and examining more than 5，000 hours of recordings of these meaningful exchanges.
Dr Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional (有意识的) communication to have been recorded in the animal kingdom. Only humans and monkeys, she said, have a system of communication with which they sent a message to another group member on purpose.
Although previous research has shown that other animals can understand complex (复杂的) information from their partners' call, they do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr Hobaiter said. “They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect，” she added.
In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, meaning “Climb on me.” The little monkey immediately jumps on to its mother's back and they travel off together. “The important message from this study is that there is another species out there that can communicate in a meaningful way, so that's not unique to humans.” said Dr Hobaiter.
Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”．
“The limited ‘vocabulary’ of the gestures suggests either that the monkeys have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information hidden in their gestures and responses.” she said. “In addition, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals communicate with their non verbal languages. So, it seems that difference still remains between human language and monkeys' non verbal communication.”
28．According to Dr Hobaiter, only monkeys and humans can ________．
A．memorize specific words
B．understand complex information
C．use voices to communicate
D．communicate messages on purpose
29．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Calls. B．Gestures.
C．Messages. D．Voices.
30．What did Dr Shultz think of the study
A．It was well designed but poorly carried out.
B．It was a good try but the findings were limited.
C．The evidence was reliable but the conclusion isn't new.
D．The result was disappointing and the methods were wrong.
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．The communication skills used by animals.
B．The smartest species in the animal kingdom.
C．A study on monkeys' communication gestures.
D．A breakthrough in studying monkeys' behaviors.
D
For the majority of people, watching movies is their favorite pastime. Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies. But what about deaf children who can't read yet, or whose reading isn't fast enough to keep up with captions
Mariella Satow, 17, a senior student of Rugby School in the UK, ran into these questions and spent over a year developing SignUp to solve them. SignUp, launched in August, is a free－of－charge Google Chrome Extension that provides American Sign Language (ASL) captioning over videos on Disney＋. It puts a small box with a sign language interpreter (口译者) in the corner of the screen while the movie plays.
In 2020, Satow decided to learn a new language, specifically ASL. “Normally, I learn languages by watching television shows with captions, but I found nothing similar for ASL.”
Realizing that some deaf children would come across the problem, Satow took action. Using her $3，000 she made from part－time job dog－walking, Satow employed an India－based company to help her design a coding system that could overlay ASL interpretation on streaming platforms. As of Nov.12, the extension has provided on－screen ASL interpretation for nine movies such as Moana.
“We watched Moana ... My 6－year－old daughter's face was priceless. She loved it ... It was the first time she had had full access to a movie. Thank you！” a user commented below on SignUp's Twitter account. Satow said that some teachers would use the extension in their classrooms and arrange movie nights for their students.
“My hope is we'll have a lot more movies interpreted，” she told the website Sag Harbor Express. “I'm hoping to expand to a more adult audience and to other countries—to make it as big as possible.”
32．What does SignUp do
A．Reduce the speed of captions.
B．Teach deaf children a sign language.
C．Offer on－screen ASL interpretation.
D．Provide captions in different languages.
33．Why did Satow develop SignUp
A．To earn money for her education.
B．To make ASL popular among the deaf.
C．To become a sign language interpreter.
D．To help deaf children enjoy movies better.
34．What's the attitude of parents and teachers to SignUp
A．Favorable. B．Negative.
C．Uncaring. D．Doubtful.
35．Which of the following best describes Satow
A．Brave and independent.
B．Kind－hearted and creative.
C．Friendly and honest.
D．Smart and humorous.

How to improve your communication skills
Whether you want to have better conversations in your social life or get your ideas across better at work, here are some essential tips for you.
Watch your body language
You tell your partner you're open to discussion but your arms are crossed; you say you're listening but haven't looked up from your phone yet. __36__. So, watch your body language.
Put away the distractions
__37__ while someone's talking to you or you're supposed to be hanging out with them. Maybe we can't get rid of all our distractions or put away technology completely, but just taking the time to look up could vastly improve our communication with each other.
Have practice conversations
If you don't think you're great at communicating with co workers or people you don't know well, try practicing on friends and family that you're very comfortable with. __38__ and let you know if you're getting too quiet, personal or might make someone else feel uncomfortable.
__39__
Stories are powerful. They activate our brains, make presentations better, and make us more persuasive. Learn the secrets of becoming a great storyteller with these rules to structure your description. Everyone's got at least one great story in them.
Listen, really listen
__40__. It's hard work, we know, but an extremely good conversation is a bunch of words elegantly connected with listening. Then, even if your communication styles don't match, at least you're both working off the same page. And hopefully the other person will be attentively listening to you too.
A．Tell a story
B．It's pretty rude to use your phone
C．Learn the secrets of communication
D．It's ridiculous to hang up the phone
E．They will give you honest feedback
F．Pay attention and listen to other people without interrupting
G．Remember you're constantly communicating even when you're not saying a word

While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life, college sets the stage for that exploration. I myself went through this __41__ process and found something that has changed my __42__ at college for the better: I discovered ASL—American Sign Language (美式手语)．
I never felt an urge to learn any sign language before. My entire family is hearing, and so are all my friends. The __43__ languages were enough in all my interactions. Little did I know that I would discover my love for ASL.
The __44__ began during my first week at college. I watched as the ASL Club __45__ their translation of a song. Both the hand movements and the very __46__ of communicating without speaking __47__ me. What I saw was completely unlike anything I had experienced in the past. This newness just left me __48__ more.
After that, feeling the need to __49__ further, I decided to drop in on one of ASL club's meetings. I only learned how to __50__ the alphabet that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my __51__ progress, I was excited. I then made it a point to attend those meetings and learn all I could.
The following term, I registered an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking was __52__. I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant. __53__， if there had been any talking, it would have __54__ us to learn less.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Daniel was the new boy in our school. The teacher assigned (安排) me to him. He couldn't hear or talk. So he had an adult with him. She explained what professors were teaching in sign language. Sometimes I got caught staring at him and my friends teased (嘲笑) me all day. I noticed him going everywhere all alone with no friends at all. Sometimes I felt worried, maybe even concerned.
We were assigned as lab partners and surprisingly he wasn't as bad as I thought. We would both sit quietly and do our work. But when it came to communication and his translator wasn't there, it was a mess. At first, I could barely understand what he was doing with his hands. I could see in his eyes that he was getting annoyed at me. From trying to communicate with sign language he moved to pictures and words. That worked well for both of us, but my drawing skills were not as good as his, so I stuck to words and gestures.
The second semester went by well and quickly. Daniel and I understood each other pretty well. I could understand some of his hand movements. I realized that Daniel was different from anyone I'd ever met, me included. When he saw that people couldn't understand him, he came up with another way of communicating. His artistic ability was matchless (无敌的). Then he became my best friend and we both understood each other pretty well despite our differences. During the winter break, I tried to get Daniel to play some games with me and to my surprise he was better than I expected. I also learned a lot from him.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
I decided to learn sign language secretly and planned to give Daniel a surprise. Daniel was not close with me.

Americans are careful about how and when they meet one another's eyes. In conversation, eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both persons look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other's eyes, emotions are heightened and the relationship becomes more intimate. Therefore, they carefully avoid this, except in proper situations. Proper street behaviorin the United States requires a nice balance of attention and inattention. You are supposed to look at a passer－by just enough to show that you're aware of his presence. If you look too little, you appear too proud, and if you look too much, you are too curious. Usually what happens is that people watch each other until they are about eight feet apart, at which point both cast down their eyes. In England the polite listener stares at the speaker attentively and blinks his eyes occasionally as a sign of interest. That eye－blink says nothing to Americans, who expect the listener to nod or to murmur something—such as “mm－hum”.
18．What does it mean when you look at a passer－by too little in the street

答案：B
19．Why does a person in England blink his eyes while listening to others

第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
“When studying foreign languages, don't forget about body language，” Anne Merritt said.
Something as simple as a gesture can show friendliness in one culture, embarrassment in another, impatience in a third. Even silence means different things in different places. If you want to avoid making some mistakes when traveling abroad, you should pay attention to the following.
Touch
Britain, along with many countries in northern Europe and the Far East, has a “non contact” culture. In those countries, there is very little physical contact in people's daily talks. Even touching someone's arm by accident is the reason for an apology. However, in the high contact cultures of the Middle East, Latin America, and southern Europe, physical touch is a big part of daily life.
What's more, there are different standards for the touch. In much of the Arab world, men hold hands and kiss each other in greeting, but would never do the same with a woman. In Thailand and Laos, it is a taboo (禁忌) to touch anyone's head, even children's. In South Korea, elders can touch younger people with force when trying to get through a crowd, but younger people can't do the same.
Eye contact
In most Western countries, frequent eye contact is a sign of confidence and attentiveness (专注). We may think that a conversation partner who looks away is either not listening to us or lying. Of course, this is not the standard around the world.
In many Asian, African, and Latin American countries, the unbroken (不间断的) eye contact would be considered impolite and rude. These cultures consider avoiding eye contact a sign of respect for bosses and elders. In these parts of the world, children won't look at an adult who is speaking to them, and nor will employees look at their bosses.

B
As a young boy, I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling. And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven, I sold sponge rubber (海绵橡胶) door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms, I knew it was safe to continue with my show because they weren't angry or threatening although they may have a cold attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans (锅碗瓢盆) salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them close and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance (保险) business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this__new__area,__and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.

Researchers say that they have understood the meaning of gestures that wild monkeys use to communicate. They say that wild monkeys can communicate 19 specific messages to one another with a “vocabulary” of 66 gestures. The scientists discovered this by following and filming groups of monkeys in Uganda, and examining more than 5，000 hours of recordings of these meaningful exchanges.
Dr Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional (有意识的) communication to have been recorded in the animal kingdom. Only humans and monkeys, she said, have a system of communication with which they sent a message to another group member on purpose.
Although previous research has shown that other animals can understand complex (复杂的) information from their partners' call, they do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr Hobaiter said. “They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect，” she added.
In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, meaning “Climb on me.” The little monkey immediately jumps on to its mother's back and they travel off together. “The important message from this study is that there is another species out there that can communicate in a meaningful way, so that's not unique to humans.” said Dr Hobaiter.
Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”．
“The limited ‘vocabulary’ of the gestures suggests either that the monkeys have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information hidden in their gestures and responses.” she said. “In addition, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals communicate with their non verbal languages. So, it seems that difference still remains between human language and monkeys' non verbal communication.”
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。作者主要介绍了对猴子肢体语言的一项研究和结果，以及专家对这项研究的态度。
28．According to Dr Hobaiter, only monkeys and humans can ________．
A．memorize specific words
B．understand complex information
C．use voices to communicate
D．communicate messages on purpose
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Only humans and monkeys ... to another group member on purpose.”可知，Hobaiter博士认为只有猴子和人能有目的地交流信息。故选D。
29．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Calls. B．Gestures.
C．Messages. D．Voices.
答案：D
解析：指代判断题。根据第三段第一句 “Although previous research has shown ... their voices intentionally to communicate messages.”以及画线词所在句“They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect”可知，尽管先前的研究已经表明其他动物能从同伴的召唤中理解复杂的信息，但它们似乎不能有目的地使用声音来交流信息，这是唯一看起来与人类语言相像的东西。由此可推知，此处的they指前文的voices。故选D。
30．What did Dr Shultz think of the study
A．It was well designed but poorly carried out.
B．It was a good try but the findings were limited.
C．The evidence was reliable but the conclusion isn't new.
D．The result was disappointing and the methods were wrong.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist ... the results were ‘a little disappointing’．”可知，Dr Shultz认为该研究是一次好的尝试，但是研究的发现不尽如人意。故选B。
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．The communication skills used by animals.
B．The smartest species in the animal kingdom.
C．A study on monkeys' communication gestures.
D．A breakthrough in studying monkeys' behaviors.
答案：C
解析：主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段第一句“Researchers say that ... wild monkeys use to communicate.”以及最后一段最后一句“So, it seems that ... non verbal communication.”可知，本文主要介绍了对猴子手势语交流的一项研究。故选C。

For the majority of people, watching movies is their favorite pastime. Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies. But what about deaf children who can't read yet, or whose reading isn't fast enough to keep up with captions
Mariella Satow, 17, a senior student of Rugby School in the UK, ran into these questions and spent over a year developing SignUp to solve them. SignUp, launched in August, is a free－of－charge Google Chrome Extension that provides American Sign Language (ASL) captioning over videos on Disney＋. It puts a small box with a sign language interpreter (口译者) in the corner of the screen while the movie plays.
In 2020, Satow decided to learn a new language, specifically ASL. “Normally, I learn languages by watching television shows with captions, but I found nothing similar for ASL.”
Realizing that some deaf children would come across the problem, Satow took action. Using her $3，000 she made from part－time job dog－walking, Satow employed an India－based company to help her design a coding system that could overlay ASL interpretation on streaming platforms. As of Nov.12, the extension has provided on－screen ASL interpretation for nine movies such as Moana.
“We watched Moana ... My 6－year－old daughter's face was priceless. She loved it ... It was the first time she had had full access to a movie. Thank you！” a user commented below on SignUp's Twitter account. Satow said that some teachers would use the extension in their classrooms and arrange movie nights for their students.
“My hope is we'll have a lot more movies interpreted，” she told the website Sag Harbor Express. “I'm hoping to expand to a more adult audience and to other countries—to make it as big as possible.”
篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一位17岁的英国学生Mariella Satow(马里利亚·萨托)开发了SignUp，以帮助聋哑儿童更好地观看电影。
32．What does SignUp do

B．Teach deaf children a sign language.
C．Offer on－screen ASL interpretation.
D．Provide captions in different languages.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“SignUp, launched in August ... while the movie plays.”可知，在电影播放的时候，屏幕的角落里有一个手语翻译，即提供屏幕上的ASL翻译，这就是SignUp。故选C。
33．Why did Satow develop SignUp
A．To earn money for her education.
B．To make ASL popular among the deaf.
C．To become a sign language interpreter.
D．To help deaf children enjoy movies better.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies.”和第四段中的“Realizing that some ... took action.”可知，Satow开发SignUp是为了帮助聋哑儿童更好地观看电影。故选D。
34．What's the attitude of parents and teachers to SignUp
A．Favorable. B．Negative.
C．Uncaring. D．Doubtful.
答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“We watched Moana ... to a movie.”以及“Satow said that ... for their students.”可知，父母认为他们的孩子很喜欢SignUp，这是孩子第一次完全看懂一部电影；老师们会使用SignUp为学生安排电影之夜。由此可推知，父母和老师对SignUp的态度是赞成的。故选A。
35．Which of the following best describes Satow
A．Brave and independent.
B．Kind－hearted and creative.
C．Friendly and honest.
D．Smart and humorous.
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。文章主要讲述了一位17岁的英国学生Mariella Satow，为了帮助聋哑儿童更好地观看电影，开发了能为视频提供手语字幕的SignUp。由此可推知，Mariella Satow很善良而且富有创造性。故选B。

How to improve your communication skills
Whether you want to have better conversations in your social life or get your ideas across better at work, here are some essential tips for you.
Watch your body language
You tell your partner you're open to discussion but your arms are crossed; you say you're listening but haven't looked up from your phone yet. __36__. So, watch your body language.
Put away the distractions
__37__ while someone's talking to you or you're supposed to be hanging out with them. Maybe we can't get rid of all our distractions or put away technology completely, but just taking the time to look up could vastly improve our communication with each other.
Have practice conversations
If you don't think you're great at communicating with co workers or people you don't know well, try practicing on friends and family that you're very comfortable with. __38__ and let you know if you're getting too quiet, personal or might make someone else feel uncomfortable.
__39__
Stories are powerful. They activate our brains, make presentations better, and make us more persuasive. Learn the secrets of becoming a great storyteller with these rules to structure your description. Everyone's got at least one great story in them.
Listen, really listen
__40__. It's hard work, we know, but an extremely good conversation is a bunch of words elegantly connected with listening. Then, even if your communication styles don't match, at least you're both working off the same page. And hopefully the other person will be attentively listening to you too.
A．Tell a story
B．It's pretty rude to use your phone
C．Learn the secrets of communication
D．It's ridiculous to hang up the phone
E．They will give you honest feedback
F．Pay attention and listen to other people without interrupting
G．Remember you're constantly communicating even when you're not saying a word

39．答案：A
解析：设空处是本段小标题，结合前后文的小标题可知，这里应用祈使句。根据本段中的“Stories are powerful.(故事很强大。)”以及“Learn the secrets ... your description.(用这些规则来构建你的描述，学习成为一名优秀的故事讲述者的秘诀。)”可知，本段主要是建议要学会讲故事，A项(讲一个故事)适合作为本段小标题。故选A。
40．答案：F
解析：本段的小标题“Listen, really listen”说明本段建议要在沟通的过程中倾听，F项(注意听别人说话，不要打断别人)照应小标题内容，且与后文“It's hard work ... connected with listening.(我们知道，这是一项艰巨的工作，但一场非常好的对话是一堆单词与倾听优雅地联系在一起。)”相衔接。故选F。

I never felt an urge to learn any sign language before. My entire family is hearing, and so are all my friends. The __43__ languages were enough in all my interactions. Little did I know that I would discover my love for ASL.
The __44__ began during my first week at college. I watched as the ASL Club __45__ their translation of a song.

Body language is used by people in their interactions with others. It is very useful because it can help you make yourself easily understood. Some gestures are widely accepted as they have the same meanings.
Body language also varies from culture to culture. For example, when talking, some people like standing close to each other, but English people must keep a distance away. In most countries, it is considered impolite to sit with your feet pointing at another person.
So when you are in a foreign country, knowing the meanings of gestures will make your stay there much more pleasant and comfortable.
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Daniel was the new boy in our school. The teacher assigned (安排) me to him. He couldn't hear or talk. So he had an adult with him. She explained what professors were teaching in sign language. Sometimes I got caught staring at him and my friends teased (嘲笑) me all day. I noticed him going everywhere all alone with no friends at all. Sometimes I felt worried, maybe even concerned.
We were assigned as lab partners and surprisingly he wasn't as bad as I thought. We would both sit quietly and do our work. But when it came to communication and his translator wasn't there, it was a mess. At first, I could barely understand what he was doing with his hands. I could see in his eyes that he was getting annoyed at me. From trying to communicate with sign language he moved to pictures and words. That worked well for both of us, but my drawing skills were not as good as his, so I stuck to words and gestures.
The second semester went by well and quickly. Daniel and I understood each other pretty well. I could understand some of his hand movements. I realized that Daniel was different from anyone I'd ever met, me included. When he saw that people couldn't understand him, he came up with another way of communicating. His artistic ability was matchless (无敌的). Then he became my best friend and we both understood each other pretty well despite our differences. During the winter break, I tried to get Daniel to play some games with me and to my surprise he was better than I expected. I also learned a lot from him.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
I decided to learn sign language secretly and planned to give Daniel a surprise. Daniel was not close with me.
写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和新来的聋哑学生Daniel (丹尼尔)被老师安排在一起，为了更好地与他交流，作者决定学习手语，过程如何？看着与自己疏远的Daniel，作者该怎么办？
[精彩范文]
I decided to learn sign language secretly and planned to give Daniel a surprise. From then on, I committed myself to learning sign language in secret. I practiced diligently every night, determined to surprise Daniel with my newfound ability. I dedicated so much effort to learning sign language that there were moments when Daniel mistook my focus on the subject for a wandering mind in class. But I had to avoid his questioning eyes in the fear of spoiling my long－brewed surprise. Just when I was happy about the progress I made, I came to spot something unusual.
Daniel was not close with me. He intentionally avoided me. He refused to “talk” to me at school and he hung up on me after class. One day, I approached the quiet boy and gestured “I'm sorry” in sign language. Seeing that, his eyes lit up with unexpected joy. “You are my best friend forever.” I continued to sign. He was stunned. I explained to him my learning plans. His eyes overflowed with tears and he gestured, “The fact that we are friends will never change！”

Americans are careful about how and when they meet one another's eyes. In conversation, eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both persons look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other's eyes, emotions are heightened and the relationship becomes more intimate. Therefore, they carefully avoid this, except in proper situations. Proper street behaviorin the United States requires a nice balance of attention and inattention. You are supposed to look at a passer－by just enough to show that you're aware of his presence. If you look too little, you appear too proud, and if you look too much, you are too curious. Usually what happens is that people watch each other until they are about eight feet apart, at which point both cast down their eyes. In England the polite listener stares at the speaker attentively and blinks his eyes occasionally as a sign of interest. That eye－blink says nothing to Americans, who expect the listener to nod or to murmur something—such as “mm－hum”.
18．What does it mean when you look at a passer－by too little in the street
A．You are too curious. B．You appear too proud.
C．You are not attentive.
19．Why does a person in England blink his eyes while listening to others
A．To show he is bored.
B．To show he is interested.
C．To show he is tired.
20．What does an American expect the listener to do
A．Blink the eyes silently. B．Nod and keep silent.
C．Nod or murmur something.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
“When studying foreign languages, don't forget about body language，” Anne Merritt said.
Something as simple as a gesture can show friendliness in one culture, embarrassment in another, impatience in a third. Even silence means different things in different places. If you want to avoid making some mistakes when traveling abroad, you should pay attention to the following.
Touch
Britain, along with many countries in northern Europe and the Far East, has a “non contact” culture. In those countries, there is very little physical contact in people's daily talks. Even touching someone's arm by accident is the reason for an apology. However, in the high contact cultures of the Middle East, Latin America, and southern Europe, physical touch is a big part of daily life.
What's more, there are different standards for the touch. In much of the Arab world, men hold hands and kiss each other in greeting, but would never do the same with a woman. In Thailand and Laos, it is a taboo (禁忌) to touch anyone's head, even children's. In South Korea, elders can touch younger people with force when trying to get through a crowd, but younger people can't do the same.
Eye contact
In most Western countries, frequent eye contact is a sign of confidence and attentiveness (专注). We may think that a conversation partner who looks away is either not listening to us or lying. Of course, this is not the standard around the world.
In many Asian, African, and Latin American countries, the unbroken (不间断的) eye contact would be considered impolite and rude. These cultures consider avoiding eye contact a sign of respect for bosses and elders. In these parts of the world, children won't look at an adult who is speaking to them, and nor will employees look at their bosses.
篇章导读：本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了在不同国家的日常交流过程中应该注意的一些肢体语言。
21．In Britain, when people are talking, they usually ________．
A．avoid eye contact
B．touch the others' arms
C．avoid physical contact
D．apologize for their mistakes
解析：细节理解题。根据Touch部分中的“Britain, along with ... in people's daily talks.(英国与北欧和远东的许多国家一样，有着‘非接触’的文化。在这些国家，人们的日常谈话中很少有身体接触。)”可知，在英国，人们交谈时通常避免身体接触。故选C。
22．In southern Europe, physical touch is ________．
A．unnecessary B．impolite
C．dangerous D．common
解析：细节理解题。根据Touch部分中的“However, in the high contact cultures ... a big part of daily life.(然而，在中东、拉丁美洲和欧洲南部的高度接触文化中，身体接触是日常生活的重要组成部分。)”可知，在欧洲南部，身体接触是常见的。故选D。
23．What does this passage mainly tell us
A．How to have a good time abroad.
B．The importance of body language.
C．How to communicate with foreigners.
D．An introduction to some body languages.
解析：主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了一些肢体语言在不同文化中的含义。故选D。
B
As a young boy, I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling. And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven, I sold sponge rubber (海绵橡胶) door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms, I knew it was safe to continue with my show because they weren't angry or threatening although they may have a cold attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans (锅碗瓢盆) salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them close and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance (保险) business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this__new__area,__and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从小卖东西，学会了阅读人们的肢体语言，这给他事业上的成功带来了很大帮助。
24．What does the author seem to share in Paragraph 1
A．His present feelings.
B．His positive life attitude.
C．His language ability.
D．His earlier experience.
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段“As a young boy ... it was time to leave.”可知，作者在第一段分享了他早期的工作经历。故选D。
25．What does the underlined part “this new area” in the last paragraph refer to
A．The life insurance business.
B．The pots and pans industry.
C．The study of body language.
D．The selling of sponge rubber.
解析：指代判断题。根据最后一段中的“I joined the life insurance (保险) business at the age of twenty.(我在20岁的时候加入了人寿保险行业。)”和画线部分上文“I was lucky ... could be used in”可知，作者小时候在卖锅碗瓢盆的时候学会看肢体语言的技巧可以用在“人寿保险行业”这个新的领域，因此画线部分“this new area”指的是“人寿保险行业”。故选A。
26．What was the key to the author's success
A．Listening to customers.
B．Arguing with customers.
C．Studying customers' words.
D．Reading customers' body language.
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“I was lucky ... connected with people. (我很幸运，小时候在卖锅碗瓢盆的时候学会看肢体语言的技巧可以用在这个新的领域，这些技巧直接关系到我在任何与人密切相关的生意上的成功。)”可知，作者成功的关键是能够读懂客户的肢体语言。故选D。
27．How does the text mainly develop
A．By following the order of space.
B．By following the order of time.
C．By giving examples.
D．By giving reasons.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“As a young boy”和“At the age of eleven”，第二段中的“As a teenager”以及最后一段中的“at the age of twenty”可推知，本文是按照时间顺序展开叙述的。故选B。
C
Researchers say that they have understood the meaning of gestures that wild monkeys use to communicate. They say that wild monkeys can communicate 19 specific messages to one another with a “vocabulary” of 66 gestures. The scientists discovered this by following and filming groups of monkeys in Uganda, and examining more than 5，000 hours of recordings of these meaningful exchanges.
Dr Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional (有意识的) communication to have been recorded in the animal kingdom. Only humans and monkeys, she said, have a system of communication with which they sent a message to another group member on purpose.
Although previous research has shown that other animals can understand complex (复杂的) information from their partners' call, they do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr Hobaiter said. “They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect，” she added.
In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, meaning “Climb on me.” The little monkey immediately jumps on to its mother's back and they travel off together. “The important message from this study is that there is another species out there that can communicate in a meaningful way, so that's not unique to humans.” said Dr Hobaiter.
Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”．
“The limited ‘vocabulary’ of the gestures suggests either that the monkeys have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information hidden in their gestures and responses.” she said. “In addition, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals communicate with their non verbal languages. So, it seems that difference still remains between human language and monkeys' non verbal communication.”
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。作者主要介绍了对猴子肢体语言的一项研究和结果，以及专家对这项研究的态度。
28．According to Dr Hobaiter, only monkeys and humans can ________．
A．memorize specific words
B．understand complex information
C．use voices to communicate
D．communicate messages on purpose
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Only humans and monkeys ... to another group member on purpose.”可知，Hobaiter博士认为只有猴子和人能有目的地交流信息。故选D。
29．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Calls. B．Gestures.
C．Messages. D．Voices.
解析：指代判断题。根据第三段第一句 “Although previous research has shown ... their voices intentionally to communicate messages.”以及画线词所在句“They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect”可知，尽管先前的研究已经表明其他动物能从同伴的召唤中理解复杂的信息，但它们似乎不能有目的地使用声音来交流信息，这是唯一看起来与人类语言相像的东西。由此可推知，此处的they指前文的voices。故选D。
30．What did Dr Shultz think of the study
A．It was well designed but poorly carried out.
B．It was a good try but the findings were limited.
C．The evidence was reliable but the conclusion isn't new.
D．The result was disappointing and the methods were wrong.
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist ... the results were ‘a little disappointing’．”可知，Dr Shultz认为该研究是一次好的尝试，但是研究的发现不尽如人意。故选B。
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．The communication skills used by animals.
B．The smartest species in the animal kingdom.
C．A study on monkeys' communication gestures.
D．A breakthrough in studying monkeys' behaviors.
解析：主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段第一句“Researchers say that ... wild monkeys use to communicate.”以及最后一段最后一句“So, it seems that ... non verbal communication.”可知，本文主要介绍了对猴子手势语交流的一项研究。故选C。
D
For the majority of people, watching movies is their favorite pastime. Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies. But what about deaf children who can't read yet, or whose reading isn't fast enough to keep up with captions
Mariella Satow, 17, a senior student of Rugby School in the UK, ran into these questions and spent over a year developing SignUp to solve them. SignUp, launched in August, is a free－of－charge Google Chrome Extension that provides American Sign Language (ASL) captioning over videos on Disney＋. It puts a small box with a sign language interpreter (口译者) in the corner of the screen while the movie plays.
In 2020, Satow decided to learn a new language, specifically ASL. “Normally, I learn languages by watching television shows with captions, but I found nothing similar for ASL.”
Realizing that some deaf children would come across the problem, Satow took action. Using her $3，000 she made from part－time job dog－walking, Satow employed an India－based company to help her design a coding system that could overlay ASL interpretation on streaming platforms. As of Nov.12, the extension has provided on－screen ASL interpretation for nine movies such as Moana.
“We watched Moana ... My 6－year－old daughter's face was priceless. She loved it ... It was the first time she had had full access to a movie. Thank you！” a user commented below on SignUp's Twitter account. Satow said that some teachers would use the extension in their classrooms and arrange movie nights for their students.
“My hope is we'll have a lot more movies interpreted，” she told the website Sag Harbor Express. “I'm hoping to expand to a more adult audience and to other countries—to make it as big as possible.”
篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一位17岁的英国学生Mariella Satow(马里利亚·萨托)开发了SignUp，以帮助聋哑儿童更好地观看电影。
32．What does SignUp do
A．Reduce the speed of captions.
B．Teach deaf children a sign language.
C．Offer on－screen ASL interpretation.
D．Provide captions in different languages.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“SignUp, launched in August ... while the movie plays.”可知，在电影播放的时候，屏幕的角落里有一个手语翻译，即提供屏幕上的ASL翻译，这就是SignUp。故选C。
33．Why did Satow develop SignUp
A．To earn money for her education.
B．To make ASL popular among the deaf.
C．To become a sign language interpreter.
D．To help deaf children enjoy movies better.
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies.”和第四段中的“Realizing that some ... took action.”可知，Satow开发SignUp是为了帮助聋哑儿童更好地观看电影。故选D。
34．What's the attitude of parents and teachers to SignUp
A．Favorable. B．Negative.
C．Uncaring. D．Doubtful.
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“We watched Moana ... to a movie.”以及“Satow said that ... for their students.”可知，父母认为他们的孩子很喜欢SignUp，这是孩子第一次完全看懂一部电影；老师们会使用SignUp为学生安排电影之夜。由此可推知，父母和老师对SignUp的态度是赞成的。故选A。
35．Which of the following best describes Satow
A．Brave and independent.
B．Kind－hearted and creative.
C．Friendly and honest.
D．Smart and humorous.
解析：推理判断题。文章主要讲述了一位17岁的英国学生Mariella Satow，为了帮助聋哑儿童更好地观看电影，开发了能为视频提供手语字幕的SignUp。由此可推知，Mariella Satow很善良而且富有创造性。故选B。

How to improve your communication skills
Whether you want to have better conversations in your social life or get your ideas across better at work, here are some essential tips for you.
Watch your body language
You tell your partner you're open to discussion but your arms are crossed; you say you're listening but haven't looked up from your phone yet. __36__. So, watch your body language.
Put away the distractions
__37__ while someone's talking to you or you're supposed to be hanging out with them. Maybe we can't get rid of all our distractions or put away technology completely, but just taking the time to look up could vastly improve our communication with each other.
Have practice conversations
If you don't think you're great at communicating with co workers or people you don't know well, try practicing on friends and family that you're very comfortable with. __38__ and let you know if you're getting too quiet, personal or might make someone else feel uncomfortable.
__39__
Stories are powerful. They activate our brains, make presentations better, and make us more persuasive. Learn the secrets of becoming a great storyteller with these rules to structure your description. Everyone's got at least one great story in them.
Listen, really listen
__40__. It's hard work, we know, but an extremely good conversation is a bunch of words elegantly connected with listening. Then, even if your communication styles don't match, at least you're both working off the same page. And hopefully the other person will be attentively listening to you too.
A．Tell a story
B．It's pretty rude to use your phone
C．Learn the secrets of communication
D．It's ridiculous to hang up the phone
E．They will give you honest feedback
F．Pay attention and listen to other people without interrupting
G．Remember you're constantly communicating even when you're not saying a word
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了提升沟通技巧的一些方法。
36．答案：G
37．答案：B
解析：前文“You tell your partner ... from your phone yet.(你告诉你的伙伴你愿意讨论，但你双臂交叉；你说你在听，但还没有从手机上抬起头来。)”说明了你的肢体动作会反映出潜在含义，G项(记住，即使你一句话也不说，你也在不断地交流)承接前文。故选G。
解析：根据小标题“Put away the distractions”以及设空后“while someone's talking ... with them”可知，设空处应指某个干扰物，B项(使用手机是不礼貌的)符合语境。故选B。
38．答案：E
解析：前文“If you don't think ... you're very comfortable with.(如果你认为自己不善于与同事或不太熟悉的人交流，试着在会让你很舒服的朋友和家人身上练习。)”提出可以和家人、朋友一起练习交流，E项(他们会给你诚实的反馈)承接前文，选项中的They指代前文中的friends and family。故选E。
39．答案：A
解析：设空处是本段小标题，结合前后文的小标题可知，这里应用祈使句。根据本段中的“Stories are powerful.(故事很强大。)”以及“Learn the secrets ... your description.(用这些规则来构建你的描述，学习成为一名优秀的故事讲述者的秘诀。)”可知，本段主要是建议要学会讲故事，A项(讲一个故事)适合作为本段小标题。故选A。
40．答案：F
解析：本段的小标题“Listen, really listen”说明本段建议要在沟通的过程中倾听，F项(注意听别人说话，不要打断别人)照应小标题内容，且与后文“It's hard work ... connected with listening.(我们知道，这是一项艰巨的工作，但一场非常好的对话是一堆单词与倾听优雅地联系在一起。)”相衔接。故选F。

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life, college sets the stage for that exploration. I myself went through this __41__ process and found something that has changed my __42__ at college for the better: I discovered ASL—American Sign Language (美式手语)．
I never felt an urge to learn any sign language before. My entire family is hearing, and so are all my friends. The __43__ languages were enough in all my interactions. Little did I know that I would discover my love for ASL.
The __44__ began during my first week at college. I watched as the ASL Club __45__ their translation of a song. Both the hand movements and the very __46__ of communicating without speaking __47__ me. What I saw was completely unlike anything I had experienced in the past. This newness just left me __48__ more.
After that, feeling the need to __49__ further, I decided to drop in on one of ASL club's meetings. I only learned how to __50__ the alphabet that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my __51__ progress, I was excited. I then made it a point to attend those meetings and learn all I could.
The following term, I registered an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking was __52__.

篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了传统中医的发展过程、理念以及其在世界上的影响。
56．答案：has been practised
57．答案：a
解析：考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。根据时间状语for over 3，000 years可知，应用现在完成时；从句主语which指代先行词TCM，和practise之间是被动关系，应用现在完成时的被动语态；主语为单数。故填has been practised。
解析：考查冠词。句意：神农，古代神话中的一个人物，被认为是中医之父。此处应用不定冠词泛指一个人物，且figure的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
58．答案：that
59．答案：achieving
解析：考查定语从句的引导词。设空处引导定语从句，先行词是anything，从句缺少主语，应用关系代词。当先行词是不定代词时，定语从句的引导词只能用that。故填that。
解析：考查非谓语动词。介词about后应用动名词作宾语。故填achieving。
60．答案：more effective
61．答案：and
解析：考查形容词的比较级。根据设空后的than western medicine可知，此处应用形容词effective的比较级。故填more effective。
解析：考查连词。设空前的some medicine ... same origin与设空后的that the same kind of material ... medicine and food是并列的believe的宾语从句，应用并列连词and连接。故填and。
62．答案：for
63．答案：rooted
解析：考查介词。win the prize for ... 意为“因……而获奖”，是固定搭配。故填for。
解析：考查非谓语动词。Her discovery和root之间是被动关系，应用过去分词作后置定语。故填rooted。
64．答案：widely
65．答案：treatments
解析：考查词性转换。应用副词widely修饰动词applied，意为“广泛地”。故填widely。
解析：考查名词。句意：许多外国人，包括奥林匹克运动员，都对各种治疗方法着迷，例如拔罐、刮痧、推拿。此处treatment为可数名词，various后接可数名词复数。故填treatments。

Body language is used by people in their interactions with others. It is very useful because it can help you make yourself easily understood. Some gestures are widely accepted as they have the same meanings.
Body language also varies from culture to culture. For example, when talking, some people like standing close to each other, but English people must keep a distance away. In most countries, it is considered impolite to sit with your feet pointing at another person.
So when you are in a foreign country, knowing the meanings of gestures will make your stay there much more pleasant and comfortable.
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Daniel was the new boy in our school. The teacher assigned (安排) me to him. He couldn't hear or talk. So he had an adult with him. She explained what professors were teaching in sign language. Sometimes I got caught staring at him and my friends teased (嘲笑) me all day. I noticed him going everywhere all alone with no friends at all. Sometimes I felt worried, maybe even concerned.
We were assigned as lab partners and surprisingly he wasn't as bad as I thought. We would both sit quietly and do our work. But when it came to communication and his translator wasn't there, it was a mess. At first, I could barely understand what he was doing with his hands. I could see in his eyes that he was getting annoyed at me. From trying to communicate with sign language he moved to pictures and words. That worked well for both of us, but my drawing skills were not as good as his, so I stuck to words and gestures.
The second semester went by well and quickly. Daniel and I understood each other pretty well. I could understand some of his hand movements. I realized that Daniel was different from anyone I'd ever met, me included. When he saw that people couldn't understand him, he came up with another way of communicating. His artistic ability was matchless (无敌的). Then he became my best friend and we both understood each other pretty well despite our differences. During the winter break, I tried to get Daniel to play some games with me and to my surprise he was better than I expected. I also learned a lot from him.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
I decided to learn sign language secretly and planned to give Daniel a surprise. ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍

写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和新来的聋哑学生Daniel (丹尼尔)被老师安排在一起，为了更好地与他交流，作者决定学习手语，过程如何？看着与自己疏远的Daniel，作者该怎么办？
[精彩范文]
I decided to learn sign language secretly and planned to give Daniel a surprise. From then on, I committed myself to learning sign language in secret. I practiced diligently every night, determined to surprise Daniel with my newfound ability. I dedicated so much effort to learning sign language that there were moments when Daniel mistook my focus on the subject for a wandering mind in class. But I had to avoid his questioning eyes in the fear of spoiling my long－brewed surprise. Just when I was happy about the progress I made, I came to spot something unusual.
Daniel was not close with me. He intentionally avoided me. He refused to “talk” to me at school and he hung up on me after class. One day, I approached the quiet boy and gestured “I'm sorry” in sign language. Seeing that, his eyes lit up with unexpected joy. “You are my best friend forever.” I continued to sign. He was stunned. I explained to him my learning plans. His eyes overflowed with tears and he gestured, “The fact that we are friends will never change！”
