You can r
25、ead, speak and under- stand. But there is another kind of language you need to know-the language of the body, a part of what is called non-verbal communication. All over the world, people “talk“ with their hands with their hands and with their eyes. When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians
26、meet, they put their hands together. What do American and British people do? Americans are more informal than the British. They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themsel
27、ves comfortable. British people are more reserved (保守的 ). They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask you home. When British and American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometim
28、es kiss their women friends, and men kiss women friends (on one cheek only). When a man meets a man friend, he just smiles, and says “Hello“. Men do not kiss each other, or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other. 59 In the first paragraph, the writer thinks that body language

31、f people in various parts of the United States. In the Northeast and Midwest, people are said to be closed and private (私有的 ,秘密的 ). In the South and West, however, they are often thought of as being more often thought of as being more open and hospitable (好客 ). Ask someone from St. Louis where the n
32、earest sandwich shop is, and he or she will politely give you directions. A New Yorker might eye you at first and after deciding it is safe to talk to you, might give you a rather unexpected explanation. A person from Georgia might be very kind about directing you and even suggest some different pla
33、ces to eat. A Texan just might take you to the place and treat you to lunch. American stereotypes are abundant. New Englanders are often thought of as being friendly and helpful. Southerners are known for their hospitality and warmth. People from the western part of the United States are often consi
34、dered very outgoing. These differences in character can be traced to different factors such as climate, living conditions, and historical development. When traveling from place to place, Americans themselves are often surprised at the differing degrees of friendliness in the United States. 63 The ma
35、in idea of the passage is _. （ A） even Americans are surprised at the big differences among themselves （ B） there are many differences in character in different parts of the USA （ C） there are many reasons for the differences （ D） stereotypes about people are not necessarily true 64 Which of the fol

37、ollowing expect _ of the parts. （ A） the weather （ B） the history （ C） geography （ D） the names 66 The word “abundant“ in the second paragraph may probably mean“_“ （ A） plentiful （ B） normal （ C） curious （ D） strange 67 Birth, marriage and death: these are the greatest events in human life. Many thi
38、ngs, good and bad, can happen to us in our lives. Yet there are three days which are usually marked by some kind of special ceremony: the day we are born, the day we get married and the day we die. These are the three main events in life. We only have a choice in the second of these: we can choose w
39、hether or not to marry. But we have no choice in birth or death. All human beings-from the most primitive to the most sophisticated -are affected by these three events. The only thing differs in each society is the way these events are celebrated. Yet all societies share common characteristics. Birt
40、h is a time of joy. The proud parents receive congratulations and presents on be- half of the new-born. Marriage is also a time of joy. The young couple go through a special wed- ding ceremony and receive presents to help them set up their home. Death is a time of sorrow and is marked by a special c
41、eremony and mourning. The date of all three events are usually remembered. 67 _ is the only thing we can choose in these three events. （ A） How to celebrate the special days （ B） Whether or not to marry （ C） When to die （ D） The day a new life born 68 The three great events have effect on _. （ A） al

43、 forget the dates of these three events life, because _. （ A） they enjoy the three events （ B） of the congratulations and presents （ C） of the various special ceremonies （ D） these are greatest events in human life 71 Not very long ago, a special family system (n. 体系 ) existed in certain parts of So
44、uth India. In this system, the actual head of a family unit was the mothers eldest brother, though the mother also had an important position in the family. In families of this kind, a husband was actually no more than a visitor. He did not live with his wife, but with his own mother, brothers and si
45、sters in another house. He saw his sons and daughters sometimes, but the man who actually fed and cared for them and acted as their father was their uncle-their mothers brother. But this system, in which brothers and sisters take the place of the father, no longer exists in South India except in a f
46、ew villages. Economic (adj. 经济的 ) changes have had far-reaching effect on family life. Family life began to change when men went out to work in factories and offices instead of working with their mothers, brothers, and sisters on the land. When a man went out to work he had money of his own and buil
47、d buy his own land and build his own family, in- stead of depending on his mother and his brothers. He wanted to be independent (adj. 独立的 ). This is an example of the way in which economic relations can have an effect on family relation- ships. 71 The best title of this passage is _. （ A） Husband Ac
48、tually Visitor in Family （ B） Family System in South India （ C） Wife Has Important Position in Family （ D） Economic Relations Affects Family Relationships 72 Who had the actual control of a family in South India not long ago? （ A） The mother. （ B） The mothers eldest brother （ C） The father （ D） The
