22、A few years ago, I was giving a presentation to the CEO of a company. Through the entire meeting time, the CEO sat at the conference table with his arms tightly crossed without a smile. I was sure that he was not satisfied, but later his assistant told me her boss was impressed with my presentation. Suddenly, I realized that, it was his usual behavior. 【1】 Here are three more: ignoring the context, finding meaning in a single gesture, comparing with a proper culture.

First, context is king. The same nonverbal gestures can take on totally different meanings in different contexts. You can’t really make sense of someone’s nonverbal message unless you understand the circumstances behind it. For example, if you yawn in a staff meeting because you were up early for an international business call, let people know why you’re tired. 【2】

Then, people are constantly trying to evaluate your state of mind by monitoring your body language. But often they will assign meaning to a single nonverbal gesture. Generally speaking, people take more notice of any sign that indicates you’re in a bad mood and not to be approached. 【3】 So, you may be more comfortable standing with your arms folded across your chest, but others judge that single gesture as resistant and unapproachable.

When I talk about culture, I’m referring to a set of shared values that a group of people hold. 【4】 More importantly, they are the kind of criteria by which people judge others. We all have cultural biases that regard some nonverbal behaviors as normal and right and others as strange or wrong. What’s proper and correct in one culture may be ineffective or even rude in another.

【5】 Understanding them, and trying not to make the same ones, will help you display your nonverbal ability.

A．Such values affect how members of the group think and act.

B．Nonverbal signals are very common in our daily life.

C．These are people’s most common mistakes when they read your body language.

D．As with me, when people don’t know your usual behavior they can easily jump to the wrong conclusion.

E．Without this context, you’ll look like you’re just bored.

F．If they don’t know the context, embarrassment will appear.

G．This is because the human brain pays more attention to negative messages than it does to positive ones.

23、   For almost 500 years, people have wondered what deadly disease wiped out most of the Aztecs (阿芝特克人）. The locals called it cocolizthi, and now a team of scientists think they know exactly what that was. The outbreak is considered to be one of the deadliest epidemics (传染病）in human history. For centuries, its cause has been debated by historians. New evidence suggests that the Aztecs died from a type of bacteria called salmonella enterica.

An international team of scientists came to this conclusion after analysing the skeletons (骨骼) of 29 Aztecs buried in a cocoliztli cemetery in the Oaxaca region of Mexico. The scientists obtained samples from the teeth of ten of the skeletons. They compared these with their database of bacteria and found traces of salmonella enterica.

Salmonella enterica can cause enteric fever, of which typhoid (伤寒）is a type. Today, there are around 21 million cases of typhoid worldwide and it is considered a global threat.

The Aztecs were fierce hunter-gatherers who settled in what is now Mexico at the beginning of the 13th century. From their incredible capital city Tenochtitlan(now Mexico City),the Aztecs fought wars with other tribes until they ruled much of the region.

The Aztecs ended up controlling large parts of Mesoamerica--now much of Mexico and Central America--until Spanish explorers arrived in 1519 and brought with them advanced weapons and deadly diseases. The team believe that the domesticated animals, such as goats and horses, which the explorers brought with them carried the deadly bacteria.

By 1545,not even 30 years after the Spanish had arrived, Mexico's Aztec nation started coming down with a terrible illness. Symptoms included high fever, headaches and bleeding from the eyes, nose and mouth. Within five years, up to 15 million people---more than 80%of the population at the time--had died from the mystery illness they called cocoliztli. The Aztec people had no immunity (免疫) to fight the disease.

“We cannot say with certainty that salmonella enterica was the cause of the cocolizti epidemic,” said Kirsten Bos from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History in Germany.” We do believe that it should be considered a strong candidate."

【1】Which helped the scientists come to the conclusion.

A.Certain traces of deadly diseases carried by goats and horses

B.Extensive comparison of Aztecs buried in a cocoliztli cemetery

C.Definite discoveries of infected tooth samples from the database

D.Small amounts of certain bacteria in the teeth of the skeletons

【2】Which of the following is TRUE about the Aztecs?

A.They had a population of about 15 million around 1545.

B.Their livelihood depended on raising domesticated animals.

C.Their population dropped sharply in the middle 16th century.

D.They won the wars with the Spanish despite being poorly equipped.

【3】The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to_

A.cocolizti epidemic B.salmonella enterica C.the typhoid D.the Max Planck Institute

【4】The passage is mainly about

A.how the Aztecs got infected with salmonella enterica

B.why the Aztecs had no immunity to fight typhoid

C.which reason caused the Aztecs to abandon their native land

D.what led to the military and economic decline of the Aztecs

24、   A man in northwest Spain, 54, died after being stung by a “ murder hornet (大黄蜂)”, according to a report. The man from Villestro in Galicia was stung in the eyebrow by an Asian giant hornet while tending to a nest close to a beehive he owned. The deadly insects from Asia were first spotted last weekend in Washington State. Such reports have caused a national panic that may lead to more “needless” damage to those essential insect populations, the experts warned. “Millions and millions of innocent native insects are going to die as a result of this,” Dr. Doug Yanega, a professor at the University of California, Riverside, told the Los Angeles Times. “People in China, Korea and Japan have lived side by side with these hornets for hundreds of years and it has not caused the collapse of human society there. My colleagues in Japan, China and Korea are just rolling their eyes in disbelief at what kind of snowflakes we are.”

Following the initial hornet sightings on May 2, the Washington State Department of Agriculture issued instructions on how to trap the hornets, stressing that so far, the hornets have been sighted only within the state. “There are no known sightings of Asian giant hornets anywhere else in the United States and trapping for them there will likely do more harm than good. PLEASE DO NOT TRAP FOR ASIAN GIANT HORNETS IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE OF WASHINGTON STATE,” the warning read. The concern for bees has originated from their role in the general ecosystem: Bees are responsible for pollinating (授粉) approximately 75 percent of the fruits, nuts and vegetables grown in the United States, according to the U. S. Geological

Numerous bug experts said that what they call “murder hornet” reminds them of the 1970s public when Africanized honeybees, nicknamed “killer bees”, started moving north from South America. However, they just kill people in rare situations.

【1】What does the underlined word “snowflakes” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A.People favoring cold weather.

B.People with a habit of rolling eyes.

C.Someone easily getting mad or offended.

D.Small pieces of frozen water falling from the sky.

【2】Why does trapping hornets do more harm than good?

A.Because these insects seldom kill people.

B.Because insects do harm to the general ecosystem.

C.Because they are seen only in Washington state.

D.Because most plants in America depend on bees to grow.

【3】What is the purpose of writing the text?

A.To teach the public ways to trap hornets.

B.To warn the public to stay away from hornets.

C.To appeal to people to live in harmony with hornets.

D.To remind people of the past killing cases by hornets.

【4】Where is the text most likely from?

A.An essay. B.A news report.

C.A tourist brochure. D.A geography textbook.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Ms Hart stood in front of her class on the very first day of school and told the children a lie. Like most teachers, she looked at her students, saying that she loved them all the same, treating them all alike. And that was impossible because there in front of her, right on the third row, was a little boy named George.

Ms Hart had watched George the year before and noticed he was seldom engaged in school games, that he always wore torn dusty clothes and that he constantly needed a bath. As a whole, George was unpleasant.

When Ms Hart was required to review each child’s records, she put George’s off until last. But his file turned out a surprise. His first-grade teacher wrote, “George is a bright child with a ready augh. He is a joy to be around.”

Another teacher wrote, “George is an excellent student well-liked by his classmates, but he is troubled because his mother has a serious illness and life at home must be a struggle.” The next wrote. “George continues to work hard but his mother’s death has been hard on him. Since his father doesn’t show much interest, his home life will soon, affect him if some steps aren’t taken.”

The last record wrote, “George is silent and doesn’t show much interest in school. He doesn’t have many friends and sometimes sleeps in class. He could become a problem.”

By now Ms Hart realized the problem and Christmas was coming fast. Her children brought her presents, all in beautiful ribbon and bright paper, except for George’s, which was clumsily wrapped in the heavy, brown paper of a scissored grocery bag. Ms Hart took pains to open it in the middle of the other presents. Some of the children started to laugh when she found a toy bracelet with some of the stones missing, and a bottle that was one-quarter full of perfume. She stopped the children’s laughter when she declared how pretty the bracelet was, putting it on, and wearing some of the perfume behind the other wrist.

George stayed behind just long enough to say, “Ms Hart, today you smelled just like my mom used to.”

注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

After George left, Ms Hart decided to care for him like a mother.
