Reading emotional clues(线索) is one of them.Crying is considered to be caused by an explosion of emotion in most cultures. Oftentimes crying is considered a sign of sadness, but crying can also be an expression of happiness. Crying can also come about through laughter and humor. Thus, when judging crying, you'll need to look for other signs to determine the meaning of the crying. Crying can also be forced in order to gain sympathy or to cheat others. This practice is known as "crocodile tears", an expression that draws on the wrong idea that crocodiles "cry" when catching prey(猎物).Signs of threat include v-shaped eye brows, wide eyes, and an open or down-turned mouth. In a similar way, Arm tightly crossed over the other is a common sign that the person is angry and is closing himself off to you.When people show anxiety, they display increased facial movements, and their mouth made into a thin line. Individuals who are anxious may also play with their hands, unable keep them in one spot. Anxiety can also or have nervous legs. It can be conveyed when people seemingly unconsciously(无意识地) tap their feet or have nervous legs.Embarrassment can be expressed by turning the eyes or shifting them away, turning of the head and controlled or even tense smiles. If someone looks down at the floor a lot, they are probably shy, afraid, or embarrassed. People also tend to look down when they are upset, or trying to hidesomething emotional. People are often thinking and feeling unpleasant emotions when they are in the process of staring at the ground.There are also some signs of pride. People show pride by displaying a small smile, holding their head backward, and putting their hands on their hips.（1）In what situation may one have "crocodile tears"?（）A.When he is sad.B.When he cheats others.C.When he supports others.D.When he is angry.（2）What might a man do when angry? （）A.Shape his eye brows into a "w".B.Sigh heavily.C.Cross his arms tightly.D.Open his eyes wide.（3）What do we know about the emotional clues in the text? （）A.Most of them show negative feelings.B.They usually express positive emotions.C.They can be controlled well be humans.D.They are good for people's health.（4）What is the best title for the passage? （）A.How to use body languages?B.How to read emotional clues?C.What expressive emotions we have?D.What are body languages?（二）You probably think you know about London’s problems. The people are unfriendly, the prices are expensive, and the food is terrible — so why do so many tourists go there?London was named the world’s most popul ar city between July and September 2013. It edged out other world-famous cities, welcoming 4.9 million visitors. Amazingly, this was an increase of almost 19.5 percent on 2012 — the year when the Olympics happened.So can London’s success be explained? Wel l, maybe. As the English writer Samuel Johnson once said, “When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life.” London life is crazy and expensive, but if you can think of something, you can probably do it there.Anywhere in the city, you can often look around a great museum, watch a concert at a historic interest, or dance the night away in a cool nightclub.And it’s not just about culture — there are also world-famous sporting places. Many tourists like to watch soccer matches at stadiums such as Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge. Tourists even came to watch British tennis player Andy Murray’s famous victory at the Wimbledon tennis tournament (锦标赛) in 2013.Yes, but what about the food? Well, even if you don’t like British food —and if you’ve never had real fish and chips, then perhaps you should wait until you’ve tried them — there is plenty of great food from all over the world available in London’s many restaurants.London, like many of its buildings, has a long history, but also never lacks a vibrant pulse. All over the city, history and modernity come together to make it an essential place for tourists to discover.（1）What is the author’s main purpose in writing the article? （）A.To show the effects of the 2012 London Olympics.B.To analyze why London appeals to tourists.C.To compare London with other world-famous cities.D.To talk about common problems in London.（2）The underlined phrase “edged out” in the second paragraph probably means ______.A.took the lead ofB.had a lot in common withC.followed the example ofD.became more popular than（3）In Samuel Johnson’s eyes, life in London is probably ______.A.relaxedB.boringC.colorfulD.challenging（4）According to the article, London is attracting many visitors from across the world, mainly because ______.a. it is a city rich in culture and attractionsb. most local people are friendlyc. the sporting venues around the city are worthy of a visitd. British food enjoys a good reputation among visitorse. the city has a combination of history and modernity（）A.abcB.aceC.bcdD.bde四、任务型阅读（共10分）How to become a better readerLanguage and literacy (读写能力) are among humans' greatest inventions. Evolving（演变）over the course of human history, languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes. Today, surrounded（包围）by social media, television, movies, and, of course, books, the ability to read and write is important to expressing one's feelings. Most humans acquire language in early childhood and speak fluently when they are about three years old, but our continued relationship with language gives shape and meaning to our lives.________Take it slow. Many readers feel that they read too slowly, especially compared withothers.________The best readers are flexible（灵活的）— slowing down when needed — and always have a dictionary at hand.Read aloud. When humans first began reading written words, it was unusual to read in silence.________Try listening to the author reading their own work — you'll be surprised to find how clearly it comes through on the page.Write. Writing and reading go hand-in-hand: how and what you read affects how and what you write, and the best readers often make the best writers.

In West Africa, as well as Greece, Italy and Middle East, the thumbs-up is pretty much the biggest insult(渚). Rather more charming is a thumbs-up in Germany and in parts of Japan 鈥晅hey just see it as the hand signal for the number one. The "A-OK" This sign is mainly used by divers(娼滄按鍛?to mean "OK"(to prevent being confused with thethumbs-up sign, which means "rise"). Basically the meaning comes out as "great", or "completely fine". However, in a few countries in Europe, people may think you鈥檙e telling them that you think they鈥檙e a 'zero鈥? The "V Sign" The sign comes in two formats: one with the palm faced outwards, and one with the palm inwards. In America they mean the same thing 鈥?victory". However, if the outside of your hand is facing your target, you鈥檙e giving somebody a long-established insult in Great Britain and many English-speaking countries such as Australia, Ireland and New Zealand. Winston Churchill famously used the "incorrect" version of the V sign during the early years of the war, turning the outside inside later. The V sign is also considered rude in Italy. The "Corna" The corna hand gesture has most recently been adopted by fans of rock and heavy metal music. Nowadays many Americans use the gesture simply to mean "rock on", or in support of the University of Texas in Austin (known as the "Hook鈥檈m Horns"). Today it is still popular in Spain, Brazil and Slovakia () . Historically, however, the symbol possibly dates back to Ancient Greece. 56. Which of the following signs doesn鈥檛have an insulting meaning? A. The "Thumbs-Up". B. The "A-OK". C. The "V Sign". D. The "Corna". 57. The pilots in World War II used to make the "Thumbs-Up" sign to show _________. A. the plane was very good B. the plane was ready to take off C. they were going to land on the ground D. they were thankful to the ground crews 58. What information can we get from the passage? A. The "V Sign" was first used by Winston Churchill. B. Italians often use the "Thumbs-Up" to praise others. C. You are most likely to see the"Corna" in a heavy metal music concert. D. The "A-OK" and the "Thumbs-Up" have the same meaning to divers. 59. If you travel abroad, you 鈥檇better not use the "V Sign" in ______________. A. Greece or Italy B. Germany or Japan C.

Surprisingly, there was a big difference between the TV viewers and the radio listeners. While the radio listeners clearly thought that Nixon had won the first debate, the television viewers were impressed by Kennedy鈥檚smile, charm and athletic appearance. Now let鈥檚think about some other situations: what if a baseball manager knew the opposing team鈥檚signals and were able to anticipate (棰勬湡)their game plan? Likewise, as a professional salesperson, you would be wise to notice your customers鈥檅ody language and adjust your presentation accordingly. Top salespeople recognize the importance of non-verbal communication. They understand that oneof the easiest and most effective ways to close sales is to be aware of their customers 鈥檅uy signals. In addition to monitoring your customers鈥檅ody language, it鈥檚important to be mindful of your own gestures and keep them positive. Remember to unfold your arms, uncross your legs, nod your head in agreement and smile frequently. Matching and mirroring your body language gestures is a way of telling another that you like them and agree with them. The psychological principle behind matching and mirroring is that people want to do business with salespeople thatthey believe are similar to them. In 1872, Charles Darwin published the book The Expressions in Man and Animals and launched the modern study of non-verbal communication. Actually, it is a mixture of movement, posture and tone of voice. 60. The example of the 1960 Presidential Debates is used to show __________. A. the presidential debates were always fierce B. the debates always attracted a wideaudience C. the voters paid more attention to the candidates鈥檇ebating skills D. the voters鈥檕pinions were affected by the candidates鈥檔on-verbal communication 61. Salespeople can close sales effectively because they can__________. A. perform body language well B. notice their customers鈥檅ody language C. adjust their body language to their customers鈥?D. understand what their customers鈥檃re saying 62. Charles Darwin wrote the book The Expressions in Man and Animals to _________. A. report his research on body language B. conclude man can learn a lot from animals C. teach people how to communicate with animals D. show the big difference between man and animals C 闅惧害:鈽呪槄鈽?In the US and Canada winter swimmers are called Polar Bears, but in Finland they鈥檙e just called Finns. Why and how do people swim in near-freezing water during the winter? An ice hole in a lake, sub-zero (闆跺害浠ヤ笅鐨? temperatures, a bathing suit, a wool cap, gloves, and shoes are for some people the perfect conditions for a quick dip in the water. Winter swimming is an activity that I never thought of before moving to Finland, but those who take part in the cold-water sport absolutely love it. My Finnish friend Katariina is the winter swimming leader of a group of international friends. She has been winter swimming for three years, and says, "every time I get out of the water, I have a new level of energy. "Katariina has persuaded many people, both Finns and foreigners, to try this sport, and has a group of winter swimming lovers who swim with her twice per week. The best conditions for winter swimming are -15 to -20 degrees with no wind. Katariina says that the hardest part, especially for beginners, is to psych () yourself up for the water; but once you do, it feels great. Swimmers only stay in the water for 30-60 seconds before getting out, getting dressed, and heading to the comfort of their warm cars. Winter swimmers do not put their heads in the water in case of hypothermia (浣撴俯杩囦綆). Katariina says that foreigners who go winter swimming feel proud of themselves, and happy that they have tried it at least once. 63. What are Finns and Polar Bears,according to this passage? A. They are people who love winter swimming. B. The names of animals living in Finland and at the South Pole. C. They are beginners at winter swimming. D. The people of Finland. 64.

I participated in a day diving trip that had lunch on the boat. We went to Maalhoss Thila first. The current (姘存祦) can be very strong here but we were lucky and had a mild one. We enjoyed all the different colors of coral and fish. The maximum depth of this dive was 30m, and we stayed for about 40 minutes. The water was reasonably warm, so I was not cold only wearing ashort-sleeved wetsuit. I was a bit worried about having lunch on the boat, as sometimes my stomach feels bad, but it was perfectly fine this time 鈥昿erhaps because the boat had not stopped and was moving toward the other dive place, or because the size of the boat was reasonably large. Our next diving place was called Manta. And as expected, the huge Manta was soon around us. It is one of the most exciting moments I have had in my life. We only dove to 14m this time, which allowed us to stay a bit longer 鈥昦lmost 50 minutes. On the way back all the women took strategic position on the deck, sunbathing and relaxing, while the men were getting bored and ate the leftovers from lunch. No matter how different we were, we all enjoyed our trip. Another dive I would like to recommend(鎺ㄨ崘)is called Maaya Thila, and it is the best night dive I have ever had. We saw a huge turtle sleeping in a cave, and sharks playfully chasing each other. They did not look friendly at all, but fortunately they did not decided to have us for dinner. But anyway what happened that night under water will remain a fond memory to be retold on specialoccasions by all the participants. It will be told with a smile on our faces. 1.

First, to build muscle mass you have to do the right exercise. Weight training is good because it uses resistance which builds muscle mass. Make sure to ask your coaches, PE teacher or a doctor for help before using weights 鈥晅hey can be dangerous to your health if you don鈥檛use them the right way, or if you鈥檙e too young. Second, cut out foods that are fried, like French fries, chicken nuggets and fish sticks. Choose healthy foods like baked chicken, fish and potatoes.
