He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed. In other words, we learn our looks—we are not born with them. A baby has generally unformed facial features. A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around him—family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some areas of the UnitedStates look so much alike. New Englanders of Southerners have certain common facial features that cannot be explained by genetics(遗传). The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth set in. For many people, this can happen well after they are grown-up. A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us. This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas. In the United States, for example, the South is the part of the country where people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York State still less. Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less often than people do in small towns.56. According to the passage, the final mouth shape is formed______.A. before birthB. as soon as one’s teeth are newly setC. after new teeth set inD. around 15 years old57. Ray Birdwhistell can tell what area of the United States a person is from by______.A. how much he or she smilesB. how he or she raises his or her eyebrowsC. what he or she likes bestD. the way he or she talks58. People who live______ are more friendly.A. in largely populated areasB. in New York CityC. in the southern part of the countryD. in the NorthSometimes body language adds to what people say even when they don’t talk. Gestures are the “silent language” of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the other’s arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug.Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle(一定角度), so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say, “Pardon me” or “Excuse me”.Americans like to lo ok at the other person in the eyes when they are talking. If you don’t do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite.For Americans, thumbs-up means yes, very good, or well done. Thumbs-down means the opposite. To call a waiter, raise one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement with your hand as if you are signing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the index finger(食指). Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.Learning a culture’s body language is sometimes confusing. If you don’t know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.59. From the first paragraph we can learn that_____ .A. gestures don’t mean anything while talkingB. gestures can help us to express ourselvesC. we can learn a language well without body languageD. only American people can use gestures60. If you are introduced to a stranger from the USA, you should______.A. greet him with a hugB. place a hand on his shoulderC. shake his hand firmlyD. shake his hand weakly61. In the United States, people often______.A. show their friendship by glancing at each otherB. show their friendship by touching each otherC. say “Pardon me” to each other when they are talkingD. get uncomfortable when you sit close to them62.

I’ve done a lot of that myself and I’ve seen a lot of interesting things when I’ve travelled.One time I was sitting in a restaurant watching the people coming in and out, just drinking some coffee, and enjoying the experience of being in another place. I watched two people come in and sit down at a table. They didn’t quite know what to order and they didn’t speak the language at all, but there were pictures in the menu and they thought, well, they could probably get by just pointing at things. So they pointed at something and the waiter seemed to understand them becausehe didn’t ask any questions. So he brought what they wanted to eat. In doing so, he brought the sauce(酱汁)for the meat that they were going to eat first and put it on the table. The two people who were eating didn’t und erstand what they had ordered so they didn’t know what he’d brought. They looked at it and thought, “Well, this must be the soup, ”and they drank it. You can have an idea of their surprise to find out that it was almost a hundred percent vinegar！63. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. I often travel to foreign countries in winter.B.

They ordered their dishes by pointing at the pictures in the menu.C. They liked the taste of vinegar very much.D. The waiter understood what they ordered.66. Which word best describes the author’s feeling about the whole thing?A. Interested.B. Frightened.C. Excited.D. Worried.(D)This year will mark the 1 birthday of the Eiffel Tower. What gift will the Paris monument get? It willbe given a fresh coat of brown paint. About 60 tons of paint to be exact, in aspecially mixed color called “Eiffel Tower Brown”.The landmark(标志性建筑) gets a new coat of paint every seven years. In thepast the tower has gone from reddish brown to yellow, brownish-yellow and dark red,before operators settled in 1968 on the current color.“This is the color that suits the tower best—its most elegant(优雅的) dress, ”said Jean-Bernard Bros, head of the company that operates the tower. “So we have decided to keep the brown for good. ”The Eiffel Tower is the world’s most visited tourist attraction. It was designed and named after the French architect(建筑师) Alexandre Gustave Eiffel, who was also responsible for the frame of the well-known Statue of Liberty in the US.However, when the tower was first built, it was highly controversial(有争议的). Artists and politicians, including Maupassant(莫伯桑) and Alexandre Dumas(大仲马), spoke out against it. They described it as ugly and said its presence lowered French taste.每隔七年法国人都会给埃菲尔铁塔穿上不同颜色的外衣。
