An active home environment in which parents regularly talk to their children was much more effective, researchers warned. The conclusions will cast doubt on the movement born in the United States which has proved hugely popular among middleclass parents.Baby signing is now a multimillion pound industry, with thousands of mothers and fathers paying for classes, books and DVDs. Young children are taught simple gestures for words and phrases to communicate their everyday needs, such as “milk” “more” “all gone” “food” and “tired”. It is claimed that the technique brings great benefits, including improving the relationship between mother and child, helping language development and even increasing a childs intelligence.But research from Hertfordshire University has found no evidence that using baby signing helps to improve their language development. The scholars added,“Baby signing has become big business and mothers, particularly firsttime mums or less confident parents, feel the pressure to do it. Some even think if I dont do it and everyone else does, I must be a bad mother”But baby signing experts contradicted the findings. Wendy Moat, 45, who has been running baby signing classes for three years, said that the classes encouraged speech development, and may help develop a higher IQ. She said,“So many mums say that their children talk so well because they did baby signing when they were babies. Parents wouldnt say it if they didnt believe it.”21Which of the following may help improve childrens language skills?AUsing simple words and phrases.BTalking to them as much as possible.CBuying them more books and DVDs.DCreating a serious home environment.解析:选B细节理解题。根据第二段的“An active home environment in which parents regularly talk to their children was much more effective”可知。22According to paragraph 4, some new mothers choose baby signing classes because _.Athey are influenced by othersBthey are sure of the effects of themCthey dont want to be looked down uponDthey dont know how to teach their children解析:选A推理判断题。根据第四段的“.mothers . feel the pressure to do it. Some even think if I dont do it and everyone else does, I must be a bad mother”可知,刚当妈的人选择宝宝手语课堂更多地是受他人影响,属于盲目跟风。23The underlined word “contradicted” in the last paragraph means “_”AsupportedBdiscoveredCdisagreed withDresearched into解析:选C词义猜测题。最后一段的 “the findings” 指的是第四段的“But research from Hertfordshire University has found no evidence that using baby signing helps to improve their language development.”。 宝宝手语专家Wendy Moat 所说的“the classes encouraged speech development”与前面的研究发现形成对立的观点。由此可知, “contradict”意为“反驳”。24Whats the main idea of the text?AHow to teach children to communicate effectively.BBaby signing classes increase childrens intelligence.CHow to improve the relationship between mother and child.DBaby signing classes fail to improve childrens language skills.解析:选D主旨大意题。本文是一篇新闻报道,文章第一段首句“Baby signing classes . make little difference to childrens development”点出了本文的主题,因此D项符合文意。BBody language has always been a hot topic of interesting dinner conversations. It is perhaps one of the most powerful forms of human expression or human communication!Body language is a very important part of communication which can constitute 50% or more of what we are communicating to other persons. If you wish to communicate effectively, besides the words, you can use your body to say what you mean.Body language can be used to discover all sorts of things such as, knowing when someone is attracted to you, finding truth and lies, showing confidence, winning respect in any situation, and you can use body language to make people less nervous, make friends quickly, persuade (说服), and influence.So what is body language? Body language is a term used to describe the method of communication using body movements or gestures instead of, or besides, spoken language or other communication. Body language also includes many movements that most people are not aware of, such as winking (眨眼) and slight movements of the eyebrows and other facial expressions.Body language is one of the easiest ways for you to tell whats really going on in a conversation with another person. The body language that you observe from other people will tell you whether or not those people are telling you the truth, or whether there is something more thats not being said. Watch, look and observe. Sometimes you can tell more by a persons body language than the words he speaks.语篇解读:身体语言是我们日常交流中必不可少的一部分。本文主要告诉我们什么是身体语言、身体语言的功能及重要性。25The underlined word “constitute” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_”Amake upBset upCturn upDput up解析:选A词义猜测题。根据前面的“身体语言是交流中很重要的一部分”和后面的“50%或更多”,可以判断这里画线词是“构成”之意,故选A项。26From the third paragraph, we can learn _.Abody language is more important than spoken languageBhow to use body languageCbody language is very usefulDbody language is very impressive解析:选C段落大意题。本段主要通过举例说明了身体语言的各种用途和功能,因此C项为最佳选项。27Paragraph 4 mainly tells us _ of body language.Athe definitionBthe historyCthe mysteryDthe importance解析:选A段落大意题。从第四段可看出作者主要介绍了body language的定义,故A项正确。28Which of the following is NOT true about body language?AIt is a part of communication.BIt helps us communicate more effectively.CIt sometimes tells more than spoken language.DIts only needed when we have nothing to say.解析:选D细节理解题。根据第四段作者对body language的定义可知,身体语言有时候可替代口头语言或伴随着口头语言,故D项表述有误。CDuring a visit to Australia,former President George WBush tried to signal a peace sign by waving the two fingers or Vsign at the crowd.You may think of this as a simple gesture, but he made a big mistake.Instead of his palm facing outwards,it faced inwards.In Australia,it means “go to hell”!Therefore,it is very important to understand the meanings of hand gestures in different cultures before you travel to different countries.The dog callThe dog call is a gesture where you curl your index finger(食指)and call someone towards you.It is acceptable in America and England.This gesture is considered rude in many Asian countries such as Japan.In Singapore this gesture means death.Do not use this hand gesture in the Philippines because this hand gesture is to be used only for dogs there.The moutzaWhile talking to a friend,you may open your palm and stretch out your fingers.But it is a traditional gesture of insult(侮辱)among Greeks.It means that you are thrusting your hand in the face of the opposite person. This suggests that you are asking the person to leave you alone.In America, it means “talk to the hand”, which basically means “Im not listening to you”The figThe fig is a gesture that is indicated by a fist.The thumb is seen poking out of the index and middle fingers.This is a good hand gesture in different cultures,as it indicates good luck.However, the fig is a very offensive(冒犯的)gesture to the Italians and Turks.The clenched fistOne of the aggressive(挑衅的)hand gestures is the clenched(紧握的)fist.This means one is trying to pick a fight or trying to warn the opposite person to back off.In Asian countries,a clenched fist will surely land you into a fist fight.语篇解读:手势语是一个民族文化的组成部分,当你计划出国旅游时最好对其做一点了解,以避免误解和尴尬。29The writer mentioned George WBush in Paragraph 1 in order to_.Aprove everyone can use wrong hand gesturesBtell us the importance of world peaceClead to the topic of the passageDintroduce a peace sign解析:选C目的意图题。文章主要是关于手势语的,文章第一段提到布什在澳大利亚的行为只是为了引出下文,故选C。30Which of the following gestures wont make Americans angry but will make people in the Philippines angry?解析:选C细节理解题。根据表格第一格中的“It is acceptable in America and England.”可知, the dog call 在美国是可以使用的,但在菲律宾,这个手势只对狗使用,故选C。31In America,if you want to stop someone from going on talking,you can use the gesture of_.Athe dog callBthe moutzaCthe fig Dthe clenched fist解析:选B细节理解题。根据表格第二格中的“In America, it means talk to the hand,which basically means Im not listening to you”可知,the moutza这个手势在美国可以用来阻止别人继续说下去。32What do we know about the hand gesture of the fig?AIt is not a friendly gesture in Italy or Turkey.BIt is a very offensive hand gesture in most countries.CIn most Asian countries it can easily lead to a fist fight.DIt indicates good luck in all cultures around the world.解析:选A推理判断题。根据表格第三格中的“However,the fig is a very offensive gesture to the Italians and Turks.”可知,the fig这个手势在意大利和土耳其具有冒犯意味。DWith so many people in the world telling us we cant succeed, we need to hear people telling us we can. I remember my high school English teacher telling me not to apply to Cornell University because they wouldnt accept me, and even if they did, I wouldnt be able to do the work. I almost didnt apply, but a few days later I saw Ivan Goldfarb, a former teacher, in the hallway and asked him about Cornell. He said, “You can do it.” His words made all the difference. I applied and was accepted.Too often we think its our role to inject a dose of “reality” into someones life. We think its our job to protect people from the pain of failure and defeat. We think we must point out how bad the economy is and how horrible the job market is. There are enough pessimists and “realists” in the world. The world doesnt need more impossible thinkers. The world needs more people to speak into the hearts of others and say “I believe in you” or “Follow your passion and live your purpose”When it comes to encouragement, I know that all of us love working for and with people who bring out the best in us. We love being around people who uplift us and make us feel great. And while well always remember the negative people who told us we couldnt achieve something, we will always cherish and hold a special place in our heart for those who encouraged us.Today I want to encourage you to encourage others. So often the difference between success and failure is belief. And so often that belief is instilled in us by someone who encouraged us. Be that person who instills a positive belief in someone who needs to hear your encouraging words. Uplift someone who is feeling down. Share encouragement. It matters and we all need it.33What is the writers purpose in writing this passage?ATo teach the skills of encouraging other people.BTo share an experience of being encouraged.CTo explain why we need to be encouraged.DTo advise us to encourage other people.解析:选D作者意图题。根据末段的“Today I want to encourage you to encourage others.”可知,作者想鼓励我们多去鼓励他人,故选D。34We can infer that the underlined word “pessimists” probably refers to people who _.Alive a happy lifeBlike encouraging other peopleChave a negative attitude toward lifeDdont like dealing with other people解析:选C推理判断题。根据后文的“The world doesnt need more impossible thinkers.”可知,这里是说这个世界上已经有足够的这种“思想消极的人”了。35What does the writer emphasize in terms of achieving success in the last paragraph?ABelief.BHard work.CSkills.DHelp from others.解析:选A细节理解题。根据末段的“So often the difference between success and failure is belief. And so often that belief .”可知,作者强调了“信念”对取得成功的重要性。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon.
