If we look at someone elses body, we can often tell how they are feeling by their body signals. So reading body language signals is a great tool in daily communication.In case(假使) you dont think that learning how to read and use body language is important, here are some numbers for you. 7% of the information we receive is from what people actually say, and 38% of the information we receive is from the tone(语气) and the speed of their voice; while 55% of the information we receive is from their body language.These non-verbal(非口头的) signals will help you a lot, but you still need to focus on what people are saying. If you focus too much on their body language signals, you and the person may feel uncomfortable. It is useful to be able to read peoples body language, but it is useful to learn how to send the right signals and avoid the wrong signals too. Body language may be given several interpretations. Many signals have different meanings, depending on the person and the situation. Be sure of it when you are trying to read a body language signal.（1）The numbers mentioned in the second paragraph are to _.A . explain what body language isB . show the importance of body languageC . tell us body language is less used than verbal languageD . tell us body language is the only tool in communication（2）What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?A . Body language is widely used all over the worldB . Body language can be explained in different ways.C . Its too hard to understand the meanings of body languageD . People have already looked through many books on body language.（3）According to the writer, body language is very _.A . simple to learnB . negative to be usedC . hard to understandD . helpful in communication（4）According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A . Body language is uncomfortableB . What people are saying is not importantC . Body language can show your emotion.D . To send wrong signals is not body language（5）We can infer(推断) that the writer will most probably talk about _ next.A . what the wrong body language signals areB . examples of how to understand body language correctlyC . numbers about how many people wrongly use body languageD . an analysis (分析) of why people wrongly understand body language15. （10分）（2015贵州毕节）阅读短文，根据短文内容从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。One day, I heard an American boy said to a Chinese girl student, You speak very good English. But the girl answered, No, no. My English is very poor. The foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the girl had not heard him clearly, he said, Yes, indeed, you speak very well. But the girl still kept saying, No. In the end, the American boy could not understand and didnt know what to say.Whats wrong with the girls answer? She didnt accept a compliment(夸奖) in the same way as the American people do. She should answer, Thank you instead of “No. She really understood what the American boy had said, but she thought she should be modest. In the west, people will feel proud and confident when they are praised. So if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say, Thank you.”Inour country, we think being modest is a virtue（美德）and being proud is a bad thing, but in my opinion, being confident does not mean being proud, so sometimes you should be confident instead of being modest.If you are modest and say, No, Im afraid I cant do it well, while working in a western country, the others may think that you really cannot do it. If you often say, “No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by others. When asking for a job, if one says something likeYes,I can certainly do it”instead of “let me have a try”，he or she will expect to get it. So in the west, you should be brave to show your self-confidence。（1）Why did the Chinese girl say“No”when she was praised?A . Because she thought she should be proud.B . Because she thought she should be confident.C . Because she thought she should be modest.D . Because she thought she is a student.（2）If you say,“I can do it well.“when asking for a job in the west，the others may think that _.A . You can do it well.B . You cant do it well.C . You like doing it.D . You dont like doing it.（3）What does the underlined part“looked down upon”mean in Chinese?A . 瞧不起B . 瞧得起C . 表扬D . 批评（4）Which of the following is true according to the passage?A . The girl didnt hear the boy clearly.B . The American boy understood the girls answer.C . InChina, people thinkbeing modest is a virtue.D . The writer thinks being modest means being proud.（5）What does the writer want to tell us?A . We should be proud and selfish in the west.B . We should be modest and confident in the West.C . Weshould be modest and brave in the West.D . We should be brave and confident in the West.四、 阅读短文。 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）（2016天津）阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成句子。Steve Jobs was born on 24th February 1955 in San Francisco, California.
