45、。通过学习本文我们可以了解文化的趣味性。 1.B由首句“肢体语言是所有语言中沉默、神秘而又最有力量的语言!”可知,本句应表示“它 比文字语言更容易把意思表达清楚”,所以本题选择 louder。 2.D我们的肢体发出比我们可以意识到的更多的信息。身体发出的是 message“信息”。 sound 泛指“自然界的一切声音”;invitation“邀请”;feeling“感情,感受”,均不符合句意。 3.D事实上,非言语交际占据了我们真正的意思的大约 50%。mean“意思是,本意是”。 4.C根据下文论述可知,当涉及跨文化交流时,肢体语言尤为重要,故选 important“重要的”。 immedi
46、ate“立刻的”,表示动作的直接性和迅速性;misleading“误导的”;difficult“困难的”。 5.C肢体语言是我们自身很大的一部分,以致它常常被忽视。故选 much。 6.B不同的社会对于人们之间的距离有不同的认识。下文的北欧人和拉丁美洲人的例子 都与 distance“距离”有关。 7.C北欧人通常不喜欢肢体接触,故选 body,第 8空后面的“touch each other”是提示。 8.B由上文可知,此处表示语意的转折,故选 on the other hand“另一方面”,本句讲到拉丁美洲 人喜欢肢体接触。in other words“换句话说”;in a similar
47、 way“用相似的方法”; by all means“务 必”。 9.D在交谈中,北欧人不喜欢肢体接触,拉丁美洲人喜欢肢体接触,所以我们看到的很可能是 一个拉丁美洲人跟随一个挪威人移动,故选 following“跟随”。 10.A拉丁美洲人喜欢肢体接触,为了表示友好,会离挪威人越来越近,故选 closer“更近地”。 11.C挪威人不喜欢肢体接触,会一直向后退,故选 backing away“后退”。step forward“前 进”;go on“继续”;come out“出版;发芽”。 12.D挪威人的后退反过来会让拉丁美洲人觉得是冷漠。weakness“虚弱”;carelessness“粗
48、 心”;friendliness“友谊”;coldness“冷漠”。 13.A根据上下文语境可以判定该处为 when 引导的时间状语从句。 14.C当(谈话)双方来自不同文化时,很可能会出现误解,故选 misunderstanding“误会,误解”。 curiosity“好奇心”;excitement“兴奋”;nervousness“紧张”。 15.B用你希望的别人对待你的方式去对待别人,B 选项与前面的“treat others”相呼应,一个 是主动形式,一个是被动形式(to be treated)。 .语法填空 (2020 山东聊城高二期中) We communicate with mor
