Body language is one of a most powerful means of communication. It is used to conveying their thoughts and opinions and to communicate to each other. When talk with others, you are not just using words, but using facial expressions as well as gestures. Just like words, body language vary from culture to culture. For example, in many countries, shake one's head means “no” when nodding means “yes”. Although there are many interpretations of our body language, but some gestures are universal. The smile is the best example. Its function is show happy and put people at ease.[答案]Body language is one of athemost powerful means of communication.

Each one of these different types of ways of communicating is obviously different between men and women.Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women. It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men; this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely, and more quickly than men. In one study it was found that women spoke for an average of three minutes describing a painting, as opposed to the thirteen­minute average it took men to describe it.Men and women also tend to have a very different n on­verbal way of communicating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say. Men's body language is much more reserved when they are talking to women. Men tend not to make as much eye contact and they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them. Men avoid other people's body space while talking, and they also tend to sit back when talking. All of these have given off the impression of disinterest or boredom. Women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk with and they tend to raise more topics for conversation.Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral. After learning about our styles of communicating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating, what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”? The little games men and womenplay with each other while conversing would be lost. The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “I wonder if there's something there?” would no longer exist.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了男性和女性因性别差异而导致在沟通方式上也有所不同的现象。

own ideas of success to the extent that each of us is responsible for setting our own goals and determining whether we have met these goals satisfactorily.Because each of us possesses unique differences in genetic ability and favorableenvironments in which to express these abilities,it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly.For some people,simply being able to live their life with the least misery and suffering is considered a success.Think of the peace of mind of the poor shepherd who tends his sheep,enjoys his simple life with his family in the beauty of nature,and who is respected because he does a good job of achieving the goals expected of him and accepted by his family and his society.On the other hand,it seems that even though some people appear to be rich in material possessions,many of them seem to be miserable and conside r themselves unsuccessful when judged by their own standards of success.Because not all ventures can be successful,one should not set unrealistic goals for achieving success,but if one ha s self­cconfidence it would be unfortunate to set one’s goals at a too low level of achievement.A wise man once said to a young man who was experiencing frustration (挫败) with his own professional success,“You do not have to set your goal to reach the moon in order to have success in traveling.Sometimes one can be very successful merely by taking a walk in the park or riding the subway downtown.” The man added,“You have not really failed and spoiled your chances for success until you have been unsuccessful at something you really like,and to which you have given your best effort.”1.According to the first paragraph,what is implied as basics in achieving success?A.Ability and goals.B.Goals and determination.C.Ability and environments.D.Goals and environments.2.Some rich people consider themselves unsuccessful because________.A.their life is busy and miserableB.they haven’t reached their own standardsC.they set their goals at a too low levelD.they are not rich in material possessions3.From the last paragraph we can tell that________.A.success means achieving great goalsB.success comes from setting great goalsC.success means efforts and favorites pay offD.success has nothing to do with the distance of your travelB(2013·长沙二模) Handling a wad of cash may be as good at killing pain than ibuprofen (布洛芬) or aspirin,a new study suggests.Researchers at the University of Minnesota carried out a series of studies which showed those who counted money before taking part in an experiment where they were subjected to low levels of pain felt less discomfort than those who did not.It’s thought that fondling notes and coins helps ward off pain by boosting feelings ofself­worth and self­sufficiency.Previous studies have shown those with a greater sense of self­worth may be more likely to bear pain.Britain spends at least £500 million a year on over­the­counter painkilling pills and the figure is increasing every year.But scientists remain puzzled by why some people appear to feel pain more easily than others.In the latest study,a group of students were asked to count out a wad of cash consisting of 80 one­hundred dollar bills,or just 80 slips of blank paper.They had been told researchers w ere simply testing their dexterity (熟练) in handling the notes.Each volunteer was then asked to dip their hands into a bowl of very hot water,to see how painful they found it and how long they could last.The results,published in a recent edition of the journal Psychological Science,showed those who had handled money reported less pain and lasted longer.The results support other studies highlighting how the brain can be tuned to fight off pain without the use of pills.A University of Los Angeles team of scientists found just looking at a photograph of a loved one can also be a powerful form of pain relief.They recommended anyone visiting hospital for painful tests or examinations should bring a picture to help them cope.And patien ts who have had major surgery,such as a knee or hip replacement,can halve the amount of painkilling medicine they need simply by stroking a pet,according to tests at Loyola University in Chicago.4.Handling money can prevent pain because ________.A.we are confident in our usefulnessB.we can afford the expenses of the treatmentC.we can do everything with the moneyD.we can’t live without money5.The phrase “over­the­counter painkilling pills” refer to pills________.A.that can be obtained outside the drug storeB.that can be bought without a prescriptionC.that are placed on the counter of the storeD.that are purchased with a written order from a doctor6.Which of the following may least kill pain?A.Counting out a wad of cashes.B.Looking at the picture of a loved one.C.Handling a group of blank paper.D.Walking a pet.7.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A.Money Makes Something Impossible PossibleB.Money Has a Magic Power in Treating PatientsC.Money Brings Comfort to Pain SuffersD.Money Kills Pains Better than Aspirin8.We can infer that the passage is________.A.a research report on the role of moneyB.a kind of medicine instructionsC.an introduction to a new medicineD.a description of natural reaction to a medicine答案:课时作业(十九)Ⅰ.单项填空1.解析:考查交际用语。

Unit 4 Body languageⅠ.阅读理解ARecently,I had lunch with a young Chinese student who studies at a college in New York.He is very bright and aspiring and I enjoyed our conversation.Still I felt frustrated and useless afterwards because I was not able to provide him with any good news.Graduating at the end of this year,he asked me how he could find a job in this country and fulfill his career dreams.In recent years,students who found a job here after graduation have had to go through a cruel lottery system to obtain their HIB working visa.And the success rates have been declining year after year because of the ever growing number of st year,there were 233,000 applicants, and only 30 percent of them were lucky,less than half of the rate in 2013.And it can only become President Donald Trump's immigration policies in this country are tightening up and this trend will continue for at least the next few years.In this case,foreign students studying social sciences,a field in which starting salaries are rarely above the required amount,can kiss their visa hopes goodbye.Compared to the older generation of Chinese students,today's young people no longer consider the US as the only option.Many start to think China offers better opportunities in the longer term.This is not to say that Chinese students in the US are not interested in job opportunities here any more.A few years of work experience in the US can give them leverage when they finally land back in their home country.But if the job opportunities are largely reduced by the tightening of immigration policy,I expect there will be a decline.And if that happens,it is the American economy that will suffer from the loss of those educated,hard­working and talented immigrants.[语篇解读] 本文为一篇记叙文。

Whereas in cultures where emotion is openly expressed, such as the United States, the focus is on the mouth to interpret emotion.“These findings go against the popular theory that the facial expressions of basic emotions can be universally recognized,”said University of Alberta researcher Dr Takahiko Masuda. “Aperson's culture plays a very strong role in determining how they will read emotions and needs to be considered when interpreting facial expressions.”These cultural differences are even noticeable in computer emotions(情感符号), which are used to convey a writer's emotions over email and text message. The Japanese emotions for happiness and sadness vary in terms of how the eyes are drawn, while American emotions vary with the direction of the mouth. In the United States the emotions:)and:-)show a happy face,whereas the emotions:(or:-(show a sad face.However, Japanese tend to use the symbol(∧∧)to indicate a happy face, and(; _;)to indicate a sad face.“We think it is quite interesting and appropriate that a culture tends to mask its emotions. The Japanese would focus on a person's eyes when determining emotions,as eyes tend to be quite subtle(微妙的),”said Masuda.“In the United States, where open emotion is quite common, it makes sense to focus on the mouth, which is the most expressive feature on a person's face.”31.The text mainly tells us that ________.A.cultural differences are expressed in emotionsB.culture is the key to interpreting facial emotionsC.different emotions are preferred in different culturesD.people from different cultures express emotions differently32.Which emotion is used by Americans to show a happy face?A.(; _; )B.:-)C.:-(D.:(33.If a Japanese wants to detect whether a smile is true or false, he will probably ________.A.read the whole face B.focus on the mouthC.look into the eyes D.judge by the voice34.People used to believe that ________.A.some facial expressions of emotions were too complex to be recognizedB.people in the world interpreted basic emotions in different waysC.people could only recognize the facial expressions of basic emotionsD.people all over the world understood basic emotions in the same wayⅣ.完成句子阅读下列各小题,根据每句后的汉语提示,用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

必修4 Unit 4 Body language李仕才一、阅读理解AFacing increasing pressure to raise students' scores on standardized tests, schools are urging kids to work harder by offering them obvious encouragements. Happy Meals are at the low end of the scale. With the help of businesses, schools are also giving away cars, iPods, seats to basketball games, and —in a growing number of cases — cold, hard cash. The appeal of such programs is obvious, but the consequences of tying grades to goods are still uncertain. It's been a common tradition in middle­class families to reward top grades with cash as a way to teach that success in school leads to success in life. But for many disadvantaged minority children, the long­term benefits of getting an education are not so clear, according to experts.No one knows for sure how well cash and other big­ticket rewards work in education in the long run. But there are plenty of concerns that this kind of practice could have negative effects on kids. Virginia Shiller, a clinical psychologist, says that it's worth experimenting with cash encouragements but that tying them to success on a test is not a worthwhile goal. “I'd rather see rewards based on effort and responsibility — things that will lead to success in life,” she says.Even if rewards don't lead to individual achievement on a test, they could have a meaningful effect in the school. Charles McVean, a businessman and philanthropist (慈善家), started a tutoring program which pays higher­achieving students $10 an hour to tutor struggling classmates and divides them into teams. During the course of the year, students bond and compete. The team posting the highest math scores wins the top cash prize of $100. McVean calls the combination of peer (同龄人) tutoring, competition,and cash enc ouragements a recipe for “nothing less than magic”.For its part, the Seminole County Public Schools system in Florida plans to continue its report card encouragement program through the rest of the school year. The local McDonald's restaurants help the poor district by paying the $1,600 cost of printing the report card. Regina Klaers, the district spokeswoman, says mostparents don't seem bothered by the Happy Meals rewards. “There are many ways we try to urge students to do well, and sometimes it's through the stomach, and sometimes it's the probability of students winning a car,” she says. “One size doesn't fit all.”【文章大意】本文是一篇议论文,主要论述了物质奖励对学生的成绩是否有促进作用。

When the waiter brought him a plate of delicious looking fried noodles, he smiled and made an OK sign at the waiter with his thumb and forefinger linked in a circle. Looking angry, the waiter then picked up the dish and thrown it to his lap. What he did wrong, he wondered. Well, nothing is quite as it seems when it comes to using hand gesture in another country.Gestures have been used to replace words in many countries, and they are often specific to a given culture. Gesture may mean something complimentary in one culture, but is highly offensive in another.The gesture “thumb­up” is commonly misinterpreted. In English, it is popularly known as “thumbs up”, despite the fact that the action is commonly performed with only one hand. English­speaking Caucasians use it to signal “OK”, which is the same meaning as OK ring gesture. The two can in fact be used almost interchangeably.Avoid using this gesture in Northern Greece unless you want to invite a fight. While American, B ritish and Australian would use the thumb­up to signal hitch­hiking to the drivers, this message will not encourage a Greek driver or motorist to stop to give them a ride.There are no right or wrong signals, only cultural differences. Lack of cultural understanding will lead to disharmony among people from different cultures. When we know what to look for, such encounters with other cultures are actually very interesting, fascinating and fun. It is certainly a great topic to discuss over a cup of coffee and cakes.语篇导读本文主要讲解并描述了手势语言在不同文化背景下的不同含义。

核心素养测评十九必修4 Unit 4 Body language(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AWhen medical staff are in full scrubs(手术衣), their faces are almost completely covered by their caps and face masks, and we can only see their eyes and eyebrows. In order to solve the problem, a doctor in Sydney Australia, called Rob Hackett launched a campaign named “Theatre(手术室) Cap Challenge” to encourage medical staff to write their names and roles on their caps. At first, his colleagues didn’t take it seriously. However, with time going on, it has been adopted around the world with studies from the US and UK reporting how this simple idea can decrease human errors in health care.“I went to a theatre where there were about 20 doctors and nurses in the room, ” Dr. Rob Hackett said. “I struggl ed to even ask to be passed some gloves because the person I was pointing to thought I was pointing to the person behind him, because I don’t know their names, ” said Rob. As we all know, doctors are a stressful profession. When faced with life and death, they need to save the patient’s life for a second. At the moment, effective communication is important.“The ‘Theatre Cap Challenge’ is in response to the concern that avoidable mistakes and poor communication are contributing to many harmful events for our patients, ” said Rob. “We need to develop systems which reduce mistakes and misunderstanding without causing any harm. Besides, we need to let the patients know we’re humans, ” he added.On the other hand, from the patients’ viewpoint, caps wit h names on them can make patients more unworried. When everyone appears the same, it is extremely difficult to distinguish who is who. Knowing the name and position of every staff member around them can make them relaxed.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文, 文章介绍了澳大利亚医生Rob发起了一项活动, 该活动旨在激励医务人员在手术帽上写上名字和职位, 以便改善医务人员之间的沟通, 削减错误的发生, 同时也使病人更加放松。
