完形填空。     Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all! It speaks    1   
than words.
     According to specialists, our bodies send out more    2    than we realize. In
fact, non-verbal (非言语) communication takes up about 50% of what we really    3   .And
body language is particularly   4     when we attempt to communicate across cultures.
     Indeed, what is called body language is so    5   a part of us that it"s actually often
unnoticed. And misunderstandings occur as a result of it.   6     ,different societies treat the
  7     between people differently. Northern Europeans usually do not like having  8  
contact (接触) even with friends, and certainly not with   9   . People from Latin American
countries,  10  ,touch each other quite a lot. Therefore, it"s possible that in   11   . it may
look like a Latino is  12   a Norwegian all over the room. The Latino, trying to express
friendship, will keep moving"  13  . The Norwegian, very probably seeing this as pushiness,
will keep   14    which the Latino will in return regard as  15   .
     Clearly, a great deal is going on when people   16    . And only a part of it is in the
words themselves. And when parties are from   17   cultures, there"s a strong possibility of
 18  . But whatever the situation, the best     19    is to obey the Golden Rule: treat others
as you would like to be 20 .

     "Have a nice day!" may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless. When my friend Maxie says "Have a
nice day" with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.
    "Have a nice day. Next!" This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone (腔调) with a fixed
procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else"s is
the management"s attempt to increase business.
    The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it
indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the
expression saves us when we don"t know what to say "oh, you may have a tooth out? I"m terribly sorry,
but have a nice day."
    The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says "Have a nice day" to you, you may find it
heart-warming because someone you don"t know has tried to be nice to you.
    Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing
wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and
comfortable way, it"s nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don"t care all
that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.
1. How does the author understand Maxie"s words?
A. Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.
B. Maxie really wishes the author a good day.
C. Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.
D. Maxie really worries about the author"s security.
2. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. The salesgirl is rude.         
B. The salesgirl is bored.
C. The salesgirl cares about me.   
 D. The salesgirl says the words as a routine
3. By saying "Have a nice day," a stranger may _____.
A. try to be polite to you          
B. express respect to you
C. give his blessing to you        
D. share his pleasure with you
4. According to the last paragraph, people say "Have a nice day"_______.
A. sincerely          
B. as thanks    
C. as a habit    
D. encouragingly
5. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Have a Nice Day-a Social Custom.
B. Have a Nice Day-a Pleasant Gesture.
C. Have a Nice Day-a Heart-warming Greeting.
D. Have a Nice Day-a Polite Ending of a Conversation.

     Usually,when your teacher asks a question,there is only one correct answer. But there is one question
that has
millions of correct answers. That question is "What"s your name?" Everyone gives a different answer, but
everyone is
correct.
     Have you ever wondered about people"s names? Where do they come from? What do they mean?
     People"s first names,or given names,are chosen by their parents. Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used. Some parents choose the name of a well-known person. A boy
could be  named George Washington Smith;a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones.
     Some people give their children names that mean good things.  Clara means "bright" ; Beatrice means
"one who
  gives happiness" ;Donald means "world ruler" ;Leonard means " as brave as a lion".
      The earliest last names,or sumames,were taken from place names.  A family with the name Brook or
Brooks probably lived near a brook (小溪) ;someone who was called Longstreet probably lived on a
long,paved road.  The Greenwood
family lived in or near a leafy forest.
      Other early sumames came from people"s occupations. The most common occupational name is
Smith,which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals. In the past,smiths were very
important workers in every town andvillage.  Some other occupational names are: Carter-a person who
owned or drove a cart;Potter-a person who made
pots and pans. The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native
village.  The Carpenter"s great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture.
     Sometimes people were known for the color of their hair or skin,or their size,or their special abilities.  When there were two men who were named John in the same village,the John with the gray hair
probably became John Gray.  Or the John who was very tall could call himself John Tallman.  John Fish
was probably an excellent swimmer and John Light-foot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.
     Some family names were made by adding something to the father"s name. English-speaking people
added-s or -son.
     The Johnsons are descendants of John;the Roberts family"s ancestor was Robert.  Irish and Scottish
people added Mac or Mc or 0.  Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the O"Donnells
are descendants of the same Donnell.
1.  Which of the following aspects do the sumames in the passage NOT cover?    
A. Places where people lived.                
B. People"s characters.
C. Talents that people possessed.              
D. People"s occupations.
2.  According to the passage,the ancestors of the Potter family n.ost probably ____.
A. owned or drove a cart                      
B. made things with metals
C. made kitchen tools or contains              
D. built houses and fumiture
3. Suppose an English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-bom 
    son "o become a world leader,the baby might be named ______  
A. Beatrice Smith                            
B. Leonard Carter
C. George Longstreet                        
D. Donald Greenwood
4. The underlined word "descendants" in the last paragraph means a person"s _____
A. later generations                            
B. friends and relatives
C. colleagues and partners                      
D. later sponsors

     What brings a nation together? Of the four choices - shared values, language, history, and religion, it"s shared values. In our latest poll (民意调査), seven out of 16 countries chose values as the greatest factor (因索)bringing a nation
together, and six preferred language. Both choices scored high in the poll, suggesting that our values and how we
express them are closely linked Still, history was not forgotten in some countries, particularly in Mexico and Russia.
Even Canada and the United States chose national histories as the second-most important factor uniting their people.
The biggest surprise? Not one country picked religion as its top choice. 
     Respect your elders
     In most countries, the oldest
generation considered values more important to a nation than did those who are under 45 years old.
     Do you speak Canadian?
     Language scored lower in Canada than in all other countries polled, perhaps because the country speaks two
official languages, French and English.
      Church and state
      Most people polled do not connect their religious beliefs to their national pride. Religion ranked last in
13 countries - with France scoring it at 1%, the lowest of all.

    The meaning of the word" volunteer" may be a little different in different countries, but it usually means
" one who offers his or her services. "There are many different ways in which people can volunteer, such 
as taking care of sick people, working in homes for homeless children, and picking up garbage (垃圾)
from beaches and parks. Volunteers may work within their own countries or in other countries. They are 
often people with a strong wish to help those who are less fortunate than themselves. Volunteers don"t 
expect any kind of pay.      
    At the root of volunteering is the idea that one person may have the ability to offer other services that 
can help other people. Tracy, a good friend of mine, however, recently came back from India with a new 
idea of what being a volunteer means. She worked for two and a half weeks in one of Mother Teresa"s 
homes in Calcutta. The following is her story.      
    "I first heard about Mother Teresa in my high school. We watched a video(录像) about her work in 
India and all over the world. I was so moved by her spirit to help others and her endless love for every 
human being that after I graduated from high school, I too wanted to try her kind of work. So with two 
friends I flew to Calcutta for a few weeks. "      
    "I was asked to work in a home for sick people. I helped wash clothes and sheets, and pass out 
lunch. I also fed the people who were too weak to feed themselves and tried to cheer them up. I felt it 
was better to share with them than to think that I have helped them. To be honest, I don"t think I was 
helping very much. It was then that I realized that I had not really come to help, but to learn about and 
experience another culture (文化) that helped improve my own understanding of life and the world. "
1. According to the text, a volunteer refers to a person who_____     
A. is willing to help those in need without pay     
B. can afford to travel to different places     
C. has a strong wish to be successful     
D. has made a big fortune in life
2. Tracy started her work as a volunteer_____     
A. after she met Mother Teresa     
B. after she finished high school     
C. when she was touring Calcutta     
D. when she was working in a hospital
3. Why did Tracy choose to be a volunteer?     
A. She liked to work with Mother Teresa.     
B. She had already had some experience.     
C. She was asked by Mother Teresa to do so.     
D. She wanted to follow Mother Teresa"s example.
4. What is Tracy"s" new idea" ( Paragraph 2) of being a volunteer?     
A. Going abroad to help the sick.     
B. Working in Mother Teresa"s home.     
C. Doing simple things to help the poor.     
D. Improving oneself through helping others.

     Everyday, 340 million people speak it. One billion people are learning it and it is said that by 2050,
half of the world"s population will be using it. What are we talking about? That global language-English.
     The English language started in Britain in the 5th century. It is a mixed language. It was built up when
German. Scandinavian and French invaders settled in England and created a common language for
communication.
     Today it is the official language of the UK, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa
and Ireland as well as many islands in the Caribbean . Many other countries and regions use it for politics
and business, for example, India. Pakistan, Nigeria and the Philippines. English is also one of the official
languages of Hong Kong.
     But global advertising and pop music mean that in most countries, you will see or hear some English.
Thanks to McDonalds, we all know about "burgers". "fries" and "milkshakes". Songs by Madonna,
Britney Spears and Celine Dion are in English. We can sing along, even if we do not understand what
we are singing!

popular culture, for example, computer-related words such as "blogging", "download" and "chatroom".
Also included are words that teenagers use. Who does not know "cool", "OK" and "hello" ?
     Other languages also influence English. Many English words come from French. Words like "cafe"
and expressions like "c"est la vie" (that is life) are all part of the English language. On the other hand, the
French language includes English words like "le weekend" and "le camping". German words are also part
of English. Words like "kindergarten" come from the German language.

language in India.
