22、t 1(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Ever since humans have lived on the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which m
23、otions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists and the people unable to hear or speak have had to use this form of expressions. Many of these symbols of whole words are very vivid and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot.Body language transmits ideas of thoughts by c
24、ertain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of indicating that the part is only a joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking head indicates a negative reaction.Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the f
25、ingertips), signal flags, Morse Code, and smoke signals, Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people. While language is the most common form of communication, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.（分数：5.00）(1).Which of the following statements be

For one thing, recent studies show that TV weak
30、ens the ability to imagine. Some teachers feel that television has taken away the childs ability to form mental picture in his own mind, resulting in children who cannot understand a simple story without pictures.Secondly, too much TV too early usually causes children to be removed from real-life ex
31、periences. Thus, they grow up to be passive(被动的) watchers who can only respond to action, but not start doing something actively.The third area for such a worrying situation is the serious dissatisfaction frequently expressed by school teachers that children show a low patience for the pains in lear
32、ning. Because they have been used to seeing results of all problems in 30 or 60 minutes on TV, they are quickly discouraged by any activity that promises less than immediate satisfaction.But perhaps the most serious result is the TV effect of bloody fights and death on children, who have come to bel
33、ieve that it is an everyday thing. Not only does this increase their admission of terrible acts on others, but some children will follow bad acts that they see on television.（分数：3.00）(1).Because of TV, children have lost their ability to _.（分数：1.00）A.have ideas of new thingsB.understand pictures in

35、tening TV programsC.what bad effects TV program have on childrenD.what teachers think of todays children十、Text 3(总题数：1，分数：4.00)Ann Curry is a famous news presenter of the NBC News “Today“ show.

44、due to leave for another hour, I had plenty of time to spare. After buying some newspapers to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase I had left there three days before. There were only a few people waiting, and I took out my wallet to find the receipt
45、for my case. The receipt didnt seem to be where I had left it. I emptied the contents of the wallet, and railway-tickets, money, scraps of paper, and photographs fell out of it; but no matter how hard I searched, the receipt was nowhere to be found.When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrow
46、fully to the assistant. The man looked at me suspiciously as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case. I told him that it was an old, brown-looking object not different from the many cases I could see on the shelves. The assistant then gave me a for
47、m and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case. If they were correct, he said, I could take the case away. I tried to remember all the articles I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down as they came to me.After I had done this, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds o
48、f cases there and for one dreadful moment, it occurred to me that if someone had picked the receipt up, he could have easily claimed the case already. This hadnt happened fortunately, for after a time I found the case lying on its side high up in a comer. After examining the articles inside, the assistant was soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I could take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. I pulled out a ten-shilling note and the “lost“ receipt slipped out with it. I couldnt help blushing and looked up at the assistant. He was nodding his h
