The qualities of honesty, kindness and good manners are always encouraged.”可知，A、C、D三项内容都在文章中提到了。故选B。4.C 【解析】推理判断题。这是一篇英国国际儿童教育学校的招生广告，介绍了这所学校的教育目标、课程设置、教学理念等信息；再根据“Dear Parents:”可知，其目的在于希望更多的家长把自己的孩子送来学习。故选C。BMuch information can be conveyed，purely through our eyes, so the expression “eyes also talk” is often heard.Can you recall any experience that further proves this statement？On a bus you may quickly glance at a stranger，but not make eye contact.If he senses that he is being stared at，he may feel unfortable.It is the same in daily life.If you are stared at for more than necessary，you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong，you will feel angry about others staring at you that way.Eyes do convey information，right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive.But things are different when it es to staring at the opposite sex.If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away his gaze(注视)，his intentions are obvious.That is，he wishes to attract her attention，to make her understand that he is showing affection for her.However，the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking，as if he tries to control you, you will feel uneasy.A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest munication.In fact, continuous eye contact happens between lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show love that words cannot express.Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.【解题导语】本文介绍了“眼睛会说话”的观点，告诉我们不同场合的眼神交流所代表的不同含义。1What may a person usually do on a bus?AGlance at a stranger with eye contact.BUse eyes to talk to a stranger politely.CGlance at a stranger without eye contact.DTalk to a stranger politely after a quick glance.C解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，在公交车上人们可能会瞥一眼陌生人，但不会有眼神交流。故选C项。2What does it mean if a man looks at a woman for over 10 seconds?AHe likes her eyes.BHe admires her.CHe knows her well.DHe makes contact with her.B解析：细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句可知，如果一位男士盯着一位女士超过10秒，他是想吸引女士的注意力，让她知道他很倾慕她。故选B项。3Why is a poor liar easy to be seen through?AHe thinks that he is honest.BHe wants to control the victim.CHe feels uneasy about others eye contact.DHe looks straight at the victim for too long a time.D解析：细节理解理。根据倒数第三段最后一句可知，一个差劲的说谎者通常会因为看受害者太久而暴露自己，因为他错误地认为直视对方是诚实沟通的一个信号。故选D项。三、七选五In the age of the keyboard，some people seem to think handwriting lessons are on the way out.Steve Graham，a literacy professor at Vanderbilt University in Nashville，Tennessee，has been hearing about the death of handwriting for the past fifteen years._1_ He said，“If the results of a survey we have published this year are accurate，it is being taught by about ninety percent of teachers in grades one to three.”Ninety percent of teachers also say they are required to teach handwriting._2_Professor Graham says one study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting._3_ Others teach it for sixty to seventy minutes a day.Many adults remember learning that wayby copying letters over and over again._4_ Many experts also think handwriting should not be taught only with itself.Instead，they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas._5_Teachers monly report that about onefourth of their students has poor handwriting.Some people might think handwriting is not important anymore because of puters and voice recognition(识别) programs.AAfter all，that is why we write.BNowadays teachers pay more and more attention to their students writing.CSo is it still being taught?DBut who cares if people know how to write well?EBut studies have yet to answer the question of how well they are teaching it.FTodays thinking is that short periods of practices are better.GHe says some teachers teach handwriting for ten to fifteen minutes a day.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了在电脑时代，学校教授书法的现状研究。【难句分析】Professor Graham says one study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting.分析：本句是一个复合句。that引导宾语从句，在从句中不作句子成分；published是过去分词，作后置定语，修饰one study。译文：Graham教授说今年发布的一项研究发现大约3/4的老师说他们不准备教书法。1C根据下文中的“it is being taught by about ninety percent of teachers in grades one to three”可知，空处应表示对是否要教学生书法的疑问，故C项符合语境。2E根据上文中的“If the results of a survey we have published this year are accurate，it is being taught by about ninety percent of teachers in grades one to three”及空前一句可知，此处表示对研究结果的进一步分析，故E项符合语境。3G根据下文中的“Others teach it for sixty to seventy minutes a day”可知，此处表示一些老师教授书法的时间，所以G项符合语境。4F根据语境可知，空处与上文的“Many adults remember learning that wayby copying letters over and over again”形成对比，并与下文的“Many experts also think handwriting should not be taught only with itself”呼应，此处讲述的是学书法的方法的今昔差异，故F项符合语境。5A根据语境可知，空处承接上文中的“Instead，they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas”，此处表示表达想法正是我们练习书法的原因，所以A项符合语境。
