天全中学2015—2016学年下期高二第1周周考英语试题(满分100分时间40分钟)班级:姓名:成绩:第一节:阅读理解(11*4=44分)ADifferent people use different languages. We Chinese speak Chinese, and, most of us are learning a foreign language. But there is another kind of language we need to know—the language of the body.All over the world, people“talk” with their hands, with their heads and with their eyes. When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians meet, they put their hands together. What do American and British people do? Americans are more informal(不拘小节) than the British: They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable. British people are more reserved (拘谨的). They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask your name.When British or American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends,and men kiss women friends (on one cheek only). When a man meets a man, he just smiles, and says,“Hello.” Men do not kiss each other,or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.1.Which of the following is RIGHT?A. Different countries have the same body language.B. Different countries have different body languages.C.

When he died in 1931, Americans wondered how they could best show their respect for him. One suggestion was that the nation observe a minute or two of total blackout. All electric power could be shut off in homes, streets, and factories.Perhaps this suggested plan made Americans realize fully what Edison and his invention meant to them. Electric power was too important to the country. Shutting it off for even a short time would have led to complete confusion. A blackout was out of the question.On the day of Edison's funeral, many people silently dimmed their lights. In this way they honored the man who had done more than anyone else to put the great force of electricity at his country people's fingertips.4.People decided to honor Edison when________.A.he made the first electric lightB.electric power was 100 years oldC.the country realized electricity's importanceD.he died in 19315.The suggested plan was to________.A.turn off the lights in factories and schoolsB.observe a few minutes of total silenceC.dim all electric lightsD.shut off all electricity for a short time6.Americans fully realized what Edison's inventions meant when they________.A.heard of his deathB.heard of the plan to honor himC.first used electric powerD.tried to carry out the plan7.
