As she approaches, your classmate suddenly raises her eyebrows. What does her facial expression tell you?The human face is an important communication tool. We often express our feelings nonverbally by doing things like smiling or frowning. Sometimes we use facial expressions to add information to something we are saying. Think again about your classmate. As she raised her eyebrows, she probably said, Oh, what a surprise to see you here!”Both her face and words expressed her feelings. However, sometimes our facial expressions do not match our words, especially when we are trying to hide our feelings. If someone says to you, Im fine, but he is looking down and frowning, how do you think he really feels?Facial expressions have different meanings in different cultures. Miscommunications can happen even when two people are speaking the same language. In many cultures, for example, a smile communicates happiness or amusement. In some Asian countries, people also smile when they are embarrassed. Seeing this, a Westerner might be confused and think the Asian person is laughing. In North and South America, and many European cultures, a speaker and listener look at each other directly while talking. In those cultures, looking down or away from a speaker often suggests boredom. In many Asian cultures, looking at someone directly in the eyes while speaking is considered rude.Facial expressions communicate important messages, and can sometimes be more powerful than words. How do people in your culture use them to communicate?（1）The two examples in Paragraph 2 show that _.A . Both face and words can express ones feelingsB . Facial expressions can hide our feelingsC . We can use facial expressions to add information to what we sayD . Facial expression is an important communication tool（2）The underlined word “confused” in Paragraph 3 means _A . “兴奋的”B . “疑惑的”C . “担忧的”D . “有趣的”（3）In most European countries, youd better_.A . do things like smiling or frowning when talkingB . look down or away from a speakerC . have eye contact with listeners or speakersD . raise your eyebrows while speaking（4）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A . Our expressions can always match our words.B . The people who are speaking the same language may have miscommunications.C . Facial expressions have the same meaning in different cultures.D . Facial expressions show important messages, which can be more powerful than words.四、 词汇。 (共3题；共12分)20. （1分） Can you see some_flying over our house?21. （5分）用方框中所给单词填空的适当形式。win , lazy , tidy up , myself , stampOne of the_ is my friend.Tony is the_boy in our class.The students are busy_their classroom .The maths problem is easy, I can do it_.Id like to collect _because its interesting.22. （6分）用方框中所给词或短语的适当形式完成对话at the age of，write，become，exact，find out，realA：What are you doing?B：Im trying to _some information about Mo Yan on the Internet.A：Hes a worldfamous_now.Hes the first Chinese writer to win the Nobel Prize.B：Right.Do you know the _date when he was awarded the prize(他获奖的那一天)?A：Yes.Its on 11th October，2012.Much of his writing is about the _life in his home town.B：When did he begin to write?A：Well，he _a soldier in 1976 and began to write in 1981，_26.I know five of his works have been turned into films.B：Thank you for telling me so much._五、 句型转换。 (共1题；共11分)23. （11分）句型转换。（1）How do you like sports shows？(改为同义句)_ do you _ _ sports shows?（2）His mother doesnt mind soap operas.(对画线部分提问)_ _ his mother _ _ soap operas?（3）She loves talk shows.(改为否定句)She _ _ talk shows.（4）I think soap operas are boring.(改为否定句)I _ think soap operas _ boring.六、 课文填空。 (共1题；共10分)24. （10分）用所给词的适当形式完成短文A hobby is a special interest or an activity that people like to do in their free timeMost people in Britain have their own_(hobby)Some people train dogs to race or keep pigeons(鸽子)_(carry)messagesSome people are crazy about plantsThey put many _(kind)of beautiful flowers in their kitchens and living rooms_(other)are mad about their cars or motorbikesThey spend their weekends_(wash)them，painting them and trying _(make)them go fasterChildren and teenagers are _(interest)in collecting thingsThey collect stamps，postcards or pictures of a favourite pop star_(learn)something new is also peoples hobbySome people go to evening classes to learn _(dance)，body building，bread making and so onSome people learn these things by _(they)七、 缺词填空。 (共1题；共10分)25. （10分）请用适当的词完成下面的短文,每个空只能填写一个形式正确、意义相符的单词。A 14-year-old Chinese boy SunYixiao was_his way home last Tuesday evening after school.

Its sten s diameter(梗的直径) measures only about 5 millimeters. Entoloma hochstetteri can be found widely in New Zealand, especially on the west coast. The Maori name for it is werewere-kokako.
