人与社会：肢体语言
星期一 阅读理解
分值：20分
(每小题2.5分，共20分)
A
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 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.

Modern research on body language—often called nonverbal behavior—began in the 1960s and 1970s with studies that aimed to demonstrate the universality of facial expressions of emotion.That work was inspired in part by Charles Darwin’s study The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals(1872)．But it had received little attention for around a century，according to nonverbal communication expert David Matsumoto.
Then modern researchers examined how the brain reacts to facial expressions and how babies copy facial and hand gestures.And scientists have also realized the complexity(复杂性) of body language.
Much research has suggested that body language is often hard to interpret or understand.But for years some advisers and experts have been using their knowledge in many practical areas.
“I help people influence and persuade others around，how trustworthy and credible their message is by helping them with their specific nonverbal communication，” said Mark Bowden.He is the author of Winning Body Language，a guide for readers including business people and famous people.He focuses on where a person faces their body and how much space they take up，as well as those gestures.
Some experts also say they can use those signals to interpret hidden emotions.Joe Navarro is the author of What Every Body Is Saying.It is a book about reading a person’s mind from their nonverbal behavior.“It’s easy to spot a speaker’s lip movements when he faces a question he doesn’t like，” Joe said.
While the work of these experts attracts large audiences，many scientists are unsure whether their methods are reliable.“Our facial expressions show certain types of emotional states，” David Matsumoto said.So do some body movements.“But people do all kinds of things with their bodies，” he said.Your raised eyebrow(眉毛) could express doubt—but it might also signal discomfort or surprise.“The same hand gesture could mean different things in different cultures，” he said.
5．What role did Charles Darwin’s study play according to paragraph 1
A．It unlocked the secret of the human mind.
B．It promoted the development of human language.
C．It helped start modern research on body language.
D．It encouraged people to care more about animals.
6．What can we infer about Mark Bowden
A. He gives advice on business language.
B．He focuses mainly on facial expressions.
C．He pays more attention to spoken language.
D．He teaches people about body language.
7．What did David Matsumoto think of Joe Navarro’s methods
A．They were instructional.
B．They were doubtful.
C．They were experimental.
D．They were necessary.
8．What can be the best title for the text
A．Can Body Language Tell Important Truths
B．Is Nonverbal Behavior That Complex
C．Should You Know More About Body Language
D．Do Experts Know How to Interpret Emotions
读写积累 1．demonstrate vt.表现；表达；说明；证明 2．interpret v．诠释；领会，把……理解为；口译 3．trustworthy adj.值得信赖的；可靠的 4．credible adj.可信的；可靠的 5．reliable adj.可信赖的；可靠的 6．doubt n．怀疑 v．不能肯定；怀疑；不相信 7．focus on 集中精力于；全神贯注于 8．Then modern researchers examined how the brain reacts to facial expressions and how babies copy facial and hand gestures. 句式结构：how 引导宾语从句。 句子翻译：随后，现代研究人员研究了大脑如何对面部表情作出反应，以及婴儿如何模仿面部表情和手势。
