One possible version:
We all know that we can use both words and body language to express our thoughts and opinions and to communicate with other people in our daily life. And body language will surely make our words come to life.
Different body language has different meanings. For example, the thumbs-up gesture means “great” or “good job”; shaking one’s head means “no”, while nodding one’s head means “yes”. However, a gesture may have different meanings in different cultures.
So we ought to use it properly according to the country where we stay. Or we will be misunderstood by the native people. In order to use body language correctly and properly, we should firstly learn the culture and custom of the country as much as we can.

Girls and boys,
I’m going to talk about the importance of body language to effective communication.
Apart from spoken language, we can use body language, which can send stronger signals than words or written texts. So how do we use body language correctly I’ll show you the following tips: first, when communicating with others, you need to smile and maintain eye contact. This will show others that you are a good person and they will listen to you. Then, while listening to others, you need to nod your head from time to time to show that you’re paying attention. Last but not least, you’re encouraged to use gestures to express your thoughts.
I hope these ideas will help you in your interaction with others. Thank you for listening!Period Five Writing
Ⅰ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述掌握肢体语言艺术是获得完美旅行体验的关键,同时旅行者要尊重当地的风俗习惯。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I especially believe the importance of the universal language of body talk. At most times when travelling abroad, it is the only way that connects every human being, no matter the geographic location.”可知,作者认为肢体语言重要,因为它让我们在任何地方都能与人交流。故选C项。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A simple custom or sign of respect is vital to understanding before taking flight to your desired destination.”和第五段中“So, show your respect and learn more about the local customs and traditions or the spots on your route.”可知,这篇文章建议旅行者遵循当地风俗来表示尊重,以改善他们的旅行体验。故选D项。
3.A 词义猜测题。根据第五段中“Gather an understanding of what gestures or expressions are considered useful, and avoid those that may be offensive to your new friends.”可知,与useful相对应,避免的应是负面词汇,由此推断,offensive含义与rude (粗鲁的,无礼的)相近。故选A项。
4.A 主旨大意题。文章首段提出话题:掌握肢体语言的艺术是获得完美旅行体验的关键。下文叙述旅行者要尊重当地风俗习惯,结合最后一段“Though we started with one language in common—body language, the cultures of the world have evolved (演化). It is important to be able to identify and appreciate these differences; it will make our world smaller as a result. ”可知,“跨文化肢体语言”与本文内容一致,适合作为文章标题。故选A项。
Ⅱ.【文章大意】 本文是说明文。文章介绍了如何改善肢体语言,以提高沟通效果。
1.E 根据上文“Body language refers to the non-verbal signals that people use to communicate.”(肢体语言是指人们用来交流的非语言信号。)可知,E 项“它们包括诸如手势、语调、眼神交流之类的东西。”承接上文,解释了肢体语言包括的非语言信号,符合语境。故选E。
2.F 上文“Shoulders that are too high can make you look nervous.”提到太高的肩膀会让你看起来很紧张,下文“Be aware of where they are currently sitting and allow them to drop to a natural position.”(意识到它们现在所处的位置,让它们降到一个自然的位置。)提到让肩膀置于一个自然的位置,F项“同样,太下垂的肩膀会给人一种你很悲伤的印象。”符合语境,与上文并列,都说明正确放置肩膀的重要性。故选F。
3.G 根据本段小标题Smile以及上文“Be aware of your facial expressions throughout the course of the conversation, as an expressionless face can often appear as an angry expression.”(在整个谈话过程中要注意你的面部表情,因为毫无表情的脸通常看起来像是愤怒的表情。)可知,本段内容主要是关于微笑,G 项“嘴角微微上翘可以让你看起来平静愉快。”符合语境,G项中的turning up the corners of your mouth指微笑,与本段主旨一致,且与上文“…an expressionless face can often appear as an angry expression.”形成对比,说明微笑在交流中的重要作用。此处没有转折的意思,且前文提及在适当的时候微笑,A项范围过大,因此A项放在此处不合适。故选G。
4.B 上文“It’s important to make eye contact with the person you’re speaking to.”提到眼神交流很重要,下文“A simple strategy to ensure you’re maintaining the right amount of eye contact is to look into the person’s eyes long enough to take note of their eye colour before looking away.”提到如何保持适当的眼神交流,故B项“然而,重要的是要避免过多的眼神交流。”符合语境,与上文形成转折关系,B项中avoid making too much与下文maintaining the right amount of eye contact一致,强调眼神交流要适度。故选B。
5.D 根据下文“Also, it makes them know that you agree with or are interested in the message they’re sharing, which can help to increase their confidence.”(而且,这会让他们知道你同意或对他们分享的信息感兴趣,这有助于增加他们的信心。)可知,D 项“这是鼓励他们继续说下去的好方法。”符合语境,与下文并列,说明点头的重要性。故选D。
Ⅲ.第一节
One possible version:
Good afternoon, everyone!
Today I’d like to talk about the importance of body language. Studies have shown that in the process of communication, the non-verbal expression has more influence than actual words. This means that “how to say it” is more important than “what to say”.
Body language is an indicator of a person’s attitude, enthusiasm, emotion, and personality. It helps us to interpret the whole message of what someone is trying to deliver and to enhance our understanding of people’s reactions to what we say and do.
Only by recognizing the importance of body language can it be better used in our communication.
Thanks!
第二节
【思路点拨】 本文以人物为线索展开。哈德森夫妇虽不富裕但诚实勤劳,他们的女儿爱丽丝热爱写作。在老师的鼓励和父母的支持下,她克服恐惧,成功报名并参加了一个著名的学生写作营。
【详解】
1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“一切都很顺利,除了比赛。”可知,第一段可以描写爱丽丝写作时的焦虑和最终的结果。
②由第二段首句内容“得知结果后,爱丽丝迫不及待地想和怀特先生分享。”可知,第二段可以描写得知结果后,二人的交流和爱丽丝的感受。
2.续写线索:比赛—焦虑—获胜—想和怀特先生分享—交流—鼓舞。
One possible version:
Everything went well there, except for the contest. On the day of the writing contest, Alice found herself feeling anxious. She spent hours writing and rewriting her piece, doubting her abilities with each word penned. Despite her fears, she submitted her work and left the room with a heavy heart, convinced she had not done her best. However, during the announcement of the results, Alice was stunned to hear her name called as the winner. The audience’s applause was a warm embrace, shattering her doubt and filling her with newfound confidence.
Informed of the result, Alice couldn’t wait to share it with Mr White. Running into his office, she found him reviewing papers. “Mr White!” she exclaimed breathlessly. “I won the contest!” Seeing the joy on her face, Mr White smiled widely, his eyes twinkling with pride. “I knew you could do it, Alice. This is just the beginning for you. Always remember the power of your words.” Encouraged by his belief in her, Alice felt even more motivated to pursue her writing passion, knowing she had people who believed in her talent.Period Five Writing

When travelling to foreign countries, mastering the art of body language is key to the perfect travel experience. As a body language expert, it’s easy for me to see how we communicate with those around us without even saying a word.
I especially believe the importance of the universal language of body talk. At most times when travelling abroad, it is the only way that connects every human being, no matter the geographic location. A simple custom or sign of respect is vital to understanding before taking flight to your desired destination.
For example, it is customary to simply eat the food that you have before you when we are out at a business lunch. In Asian customs, business lunches are strict. Finishing your plate or eating most of the food you ordered is considered rude in Asian culture.
“Body language teaches us everything about a person,” says Benjamin Wey, a professor at two European universities. “My professional career would be entirely different if it were not for body language and my understanding of it.” Frequently visiting both Europe and the US, Wey has come to understand that internationally, our ability to actively respect cultural customs becomes the currency within business. One key element that Wey has taken away from his travels abroad is “that all people want to be treated with respect”.
So, show your respect and learn more about the local customs and traditions or the spots on your route. Gather an understanding of what gestures or expressions are considered useful, and avoid those that may be offensive to your new friends.
Though we started with one language in common—body language, the cultures of the world have evolved (演化). It is important to be able to identify and appreciate these differences; it will make our world smaller as a result.
( )1.Why does the author think body language is important
A.It makes different cultures get more alike.
B.It can effectively show your respect to others.
C.It allows us to connect with people anywhere.
D.It replaces the need for verbal communication.
( )2.What does the passage advise travellers to do to improve their travel experience
A.Avoid making any gestures at all.
B.Finish the food you order in the plate.
C.Learn to use the local language fluently.
D.Show respect by following local customs.
( )3.What does the underlined word “offensive” mean in Paragraph 5
A.Rude. B.Similar.
C.Awesome. D.Practical.
( )4.What is the best title of the text
A.Cross-cultural body language
B.The traditional cuisine culture

Body language refers to the non-verbal signals that people use to communicate. 1. They can impact how people judge you in the workplace. Becoming aware of the body language you use when communicating can help you ensure your message is being delivered effectively. Here are some steps you can take to improve your body language.
Relax your shoulders
One step you can take to improve your body language is to relax your shoulders, allowing them to drop to a comfortable height. Shoulders that are too high can make you look nervous. 2. Be aware of where they are currently sitting and allow them to drop to a natural position.
Smile
Smile when you’re first introduced to someone and throughout the conversation, when appropriate. Be aware of your facial expressions throughout the course of the conversation, as an expressionless face can often appear as an angry expression. 3.
Make eye contact
It’s important to make eye contact with the person you’re speaking to. 4. A simple strategy to ensure you’re maintaining the right amount of eye contact is to look into the person’s eyes long enough to take note of their eye colour before looking away. This strategy ensures you make proper eye contact for a length of time that’s natural and comfortable to both parties.
Nod periodically
Nodding is a good way to show the person you’re speaking with that you’re listening and engaged in what they’re saying. 5. Also, it makes them know that you agree with or are interested in the message they’re sharing, which can help to increase their confidence.
A.A sincere smile can brighten up the darkest day.
B.However, it’s important to avoid making too much.
C.Body language can be confusing in different cultures.
D.It’s a good way to encourage them to continue what they’re saying.
E.They include things like gestures, tones of voice, and eye contact.
F.Similarly, ones that are too low can give the impression that you’re sad.
G.Turning up the corners of your mouth slightly can give you a calm and pleasant look.

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。
A teenage girl, Alice Hardson was the cherished daughter of the Hardsons, Tom and Mary, who, though not wealthy, were honest and hardworking. Tom worked as an accountant, while Mary was a cashier at a local supermarket. Despite their modest income, they stressed in family the values of integrity, perseverance, and a love for learning.
Alice was a bright and talented girl with a particular passion for writing. She loved to weave stories and express her thoughts through words. One day, Alice met with an advertisement for The Scholastic Workshop, a renowned (有名的) student writing camp with a wide range of categories, including writing techniques, taking seminars on essay improvement, meeting published writers, and a writing contest, with the biggest prize being 1,000 dollars.
The thought of participating filled Alice with both excitement and worry. She knew she had the talent, but the fear of failure discouraged her. Alice’s teacher, Mr White, knew well about her talent for writing and encouraged her to pursue her dream. He also knew clearly what the girl was worried about. He decided to have a heart-to-heart conversation with her. “Alice,” Mr White said genuinely, “there might be problems, but your writing is a gift, and you should share it with the world.”
Tears welled up in Alice’s eyes. “But what if I fail What if they laugh at me ” Mr White placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. “Failure is a part of life, Alice. It’s how we learn and grow. And even if they laugh, remember that your words have the power to touch hearts and change minds.”
Back home, Alice told her parents about the programme and gained their support, with which Alice was a little more relieved. She registered for the workshop as required and got admitted successfully. Thrilled and nervous, she went to the workshop managed by the Rockerfeller University.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
Everything went well there, except for the contest.
Paragraph 2:
Informed of the result, Alice couldn’t wait to share it with Mr White.

语言信号。)可知，E 项“它们包括诸如手势、语调、眼神交流之类的
东西。”承接上文，解释了肢体语言包括的非语言信号，符合语境。
故选E。

[解析] 上文“Shoulders that are too high can make you look

their eye colour before looking away.”提到如何保持适当的眼神交
流，故B项“然而，重要的是要避免过多的眼神交流。”符合语境，与

Good afternoon, everyone!
Today I'd like to talk about the importance of body
language. Studies have shown that in the process of
communication, the non-verbal expression has more influence
than actual words. This means that “how to say it” is more
important than “what to say”.
Body language is an indicator of a person's attitude,
enthusiasm, emotion, and personality.
It helps us to interpret the whole message of what someone
is trying to deliver and to enhance our understanding of
people's reactions to what we say and do.
Only by recognizing the importance of body language
can it be better used in our communication.
Thanks!
第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
［2025·山东名校考试联盟高二期中检测］
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。
A teenage girl, Alice Hardson was the cherished daughter
of the Hardsons, Tom and Mary, who, though not wealthy, were
honest and hardworking. Tom worked as an accountant, while
Mary was a cashier at a local supermarket. Despite their modest
income, they stressed in family the values of integrity,
perseverance, and a love for learning.
Alice was a bright and talented girl with a particular
passion for writing. She loved to weave stories and express her
thoughts through words. One day, Alice met with an
advertisement for The Scholastic Workshop, a renowned (有名的)
student writing camp with a wide range of categories, including
writing techniques, taking seminars on essay improvement,
meeting published writers, and a writing contest, with the
biggest prize being 1,000 dollars.
The thought of participating filled Alice with both
excitement and worry. She knew she had the talent, but the
fear of failure discouraged her. Alice's teacher, Mr White, knew
well about her talent for writing and encouraged her to pursue
her dream. He also knew clearly what the girl was worried
about. He decided to have a heart-to-heart conversation with
her. “Alice，” Mr White said genuinely, “there might be
problems, but your writing is a gift, and you should share it
with the world.”
Tears welled up in Alice's eyes. “But what if I fail What if
they laugh at me ” Mr White placed a reassuring hand on her
shoulder. “Failure is a part of life, Alice. It's how we learn and
grow. And even if they laugh, remember that your words have
the power to touch hearts and change minds.”
Back home, Alice told her parents about the programme
and gained their support, with which Alice was a little more
relieved. She registered for the workshop as required and got
admitted successfully. Thrilled and nervous, she went to the
workshop managed by the Rockerfeller University.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
Everything went well there, except for the contest. ___________
Paragraph 2:
Informed of the result, Alice couldn't wait to share it with
Mr White. _____________________________________________________________
【思路点拨】本文以人物为线索展开。哈德森夫妇虽不富裕但诚实
勤劳，他们的女儿爱丽丝热爱写作。在老师的鼓励和父母的支持下，
她克服恐惧，成功报名并参加了一个著名的学生写作营。
【详解】
1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“一切都很顺利，除了比赛。”可知，第一段可以
描写爱丽丝写作时的焦虑和最终的结果。
②由第二段首句内容“得知结果后，爱丽丝迫不及待地想和怀特先生
分享。”可知，第二段可以描写得知结果后，二人的交流和爱丽丝的
感受。
2.续写线索：比赛—焦虑—获胜—想和怀特先生分享—交流—鼓舞。
One possible version:
Everything went well there,except for the contest. On the
day of the writing contest, Alice found herself feeling anxious.
She spent hours writing and rewriting her piece, doubting her
abilities with each word penned. Despite her fears, she
submitted her work and left the room with a heavy heart,
convinced she had not done her best. However, during the
announcement of the results, Alice was stunned to hear her
name called as the winner. The audience's applause was a warm
embrace, shattering her doubt and filling her with newfound
confidence.
Informed of the result, Alice couldn't wait to share it with
Mr White. Running into his office, she found him reviewing
papers. “Mr White!” she exclaimed breathlessly. “I won the
contest!” Seeing the joy on her face, Mr White smiled widely,
his eyes twinkling with pride. “I knew you could do it, Alice.
This is just the beginning for you. Always remember the power
of your words.” Encouraged by his belief in her, Alice felt
even more motivated to pursue her writing passion, knowing
she had people who believed in her talent.
