二、阅读理解
The mysterious science of reading gestures is explained using practical explanations and clear images. Gestures are products of both genetic (遗传的) and environmental influences. Understanding our gestures is not as difficult as some people would have you believe. All human beings use them and so actually have a “built-in” ability to recognise and read it.Fingers crossed
Generally this means “wishing for good luck or fortune”.
Another explanation could be seen as “here’s hoping”. The gesture probably has Christian origins where the gesture was believed to get away from evil. As such, people believe that crossing the fingers when telling a lie somehow gets away from the evil of the lie. Some historians believe that crossing your fingers is a hidden or secret way of making the Christian sign of the cross a perfect way of defeating evils. As a gesture it has both good and bad meanings. Luck or lies.Waving the first finger
Mothers and teachers are common users with this hand gesture. In general, it is used to warn a single person. It is a change of the “you” gesture. If translated into language it would say “Stop whatever you are doing and pay attention to me. I am your superior and I am warning you!” Classed as a “silent” parent to child gesture, it is not completely allowed in an formal occasion where it will be explained as rude. Some psychologists believe that it has a meaning of the whip.
23．What can we infer from the first paragraph
A．Reading gestures is secret. B．Gestures are formed in daily life.
C．Some people make reading gestures difficult on purpose. D．It is hard to explain gestures by images.
24．If a Christian crosses his fingers, he wants to .
A．show he isn’t lucky B．wish to succeed
C．gets away from the evil of the lie D．cross the street
25．If your mum waves her first finger, she wants to .
A．wish for good luck B．stop you
C．praise you D．help you
How to Read Candidates’ Body Language in an Interview
Body language matters, especially in interviews. 26 Our posture, gestures, movements or facial expressions can shape our reputations. Learning to read body language is about understanding candidates’ motives.
Reading body language during interviews can provide valuable insights into a candidate’s personality. 27 Here are some common interview body language signals that you can learn to read.
Observe extreme behaviour. A candidate’s harmless action doesn’t mean they won’t fit in well at your company. But be careful about extreme behaviours, like a person constantly checking their phone.
28 You can read people’s body language by observing changes in their movements or posture. Imagine, for example, that a candidate suddenly starts tapping their foot. Maybe they feel the interview is taking too long. Or perhaps they’re facing an uncomfortable question.
Connect the dots. 29 For example, people may cross their arms when they’re cold. But, when you see a candidate crossing their arms, crossing their legs and balling their fists at the same time, prepare yourself for an aggressive (咄咄逼人的) answer.
Candidate experience greatly depends on an interviewer’s body language. Positive body language can make candidates relax and open up. Negative body language can spark (引发) defensive and reserved reactions. 30
A．Spot the difference.
B．Ask detailed questions.
C．It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it.
D．They don’t necessarily act the same way all the time.
E．However, understanding body language isn’t an exact science.
F．You can’t always tell what a specific gesture means on its own.
G．Be aware of mistakes to preserve a positive candidate experience.

My high school is one that sets the stage for students to explore new aspects of life. I myself went through this 31 process and found ASL — American Sign Language.

四、语法填空
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
In many Asian, African and Latin American cultures, 46 (extend) eye contact is impolite and it is thought of 47 an offensive or a challenge of authority. It is considered politer to have brief eye contact, especially between people of different social status (like a student and a teacher, or a child and his elder relatives). For example, if a Japanese woman avoids looking someone in the eye, she is not showing a lack of interest nor is 48 (she) showing a lack of confidence. Instead, she 49 (be) polite, respectful and appropriate according to her culture. So in many of these cultures, you should take care of 50 kind of eye contact you initiate with those who are your 51 (superior) or in authority over you, so that you are not thought to be 52 (respect) or rude. As you can see, it is vital for you to know what eye contact communicates before you visit a new culture.

66．One possible version:
People usually communicate with others by spoken words. However, body language is widely used in our daily life.
Have you ever used body language to communicate with others I think the answer is definitely sure. You must have smiled to your friend when you meet him again after a long time. Smile is body language. And it is obvious that through human being’s history, people used body language to communicate with others frequently. For example, when you find your friend is depressed, you give him a smile to cheer him up and at that moment the smile is better than any words, I think. When you are surrounded by noises, and you cannot make yourself understood by word of mouth, then you use gestures which are body language to express your ideas.
As a conclusion, body language is as important as spoken language.
