Ⅰ．阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2.5分，满分10分)
For all the importance we place on words，whether spoken or written，much of the communicating we do on a regular basis comes through body language．According to pioneering research by Dr．Albert Mehrabian，only 7 percent of the meaning from human communication comes from the actual spoken words used．An additional 38 percent comes from people's tone of voice，while a large 55 percent comes from body language．
Researchers have long identified that certain kinds of body movements and facial expressions can communicate information about the emotions we happen to be experiencing at the time．But are these emotional signals shaped by different cultures or are they universal to all humans
A new research article published in the journal Emotion attempts to answer this question through a cross-cultural study．The researchers traveled to Ratanakiri，Cambodia to study members of a distant Kreung hill tribe (部落)．Living in Cambodia's highlands，the Kreung are still largely separated from the outside world except for occasional visitors．They have yet to be assimilated (同化) as many other societies have been．
In the study，a set of videos were prepared featuring an American woman，displaying three positive emotions(happiness，love and pride) and three negative emotions (anger，fear and sadness) using body language alone．The effectiveness of these videos was tested using thirty-four American participants．The videos were then presented to twenty-six Kreung individuals (eleven of whom were female)．They were asked to describe the emotions being displayed in their own words．
Results showed that the Kreung participants tended to be quite accurate in guessing which emotions were being presented．The overall accuracy rate was sixty-two percent though their accuracy in detecting specific emotions such as anger and happiness was far higher．Overall，there was no significant discrepancy between Kreung and American raters in detecting emotions，though American participants did much better in detecting pride and love．
Still，the study does suggest that body movements can express emotions such as anger，fear，sadness and love even to individuals belonging to different cultures．Emotional signals reflect basic human needs and desires that all humans share．Learning more about how basic biology and social factors shape the way we communicate may well be essential in helping to understand ourselves better．
1．Why were the Kreung chosen in the study
A．They live a hard and poor life．
B．They make a living by developing tourism．
C．They enjoy a relatively unaffected culture．
D．They use body language alone to communicate．
2．How does the writer describe the results of the study in paragraph 5
A．By using pictures．　　
B．By telling stories．
C．By analyzing causes．
D．By making comparisons．
3．What does the underlined word “discrepancy” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A．Difference． B．Communication．
C．Relation． D．Balance．
4．What did the researchers conclude from the study
A．Emotional signals are essentially languages．
B．Emotional body language may go beyond culture．
C．Humans share all the emotional body movements．
D．Biology and social factors affect basic human needs and desires．
Ⅱ．阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
Negative Body Language Signs and
How to Avoid Them
Negative body language can ruin your relationships with others． 1 What are negative body language signs you might be employing？And how can you avoid them？Below are several examples．
Touching or fixing your hair
Touching or fixing your hair isn't the worst thing you can do when you're in an informal setting．Although you're likely sending the message that you're nervous，there's nothing inappropriate about this． 2 When you're talking to your boss or attending a meeting，you might not want to appear nervous or unsure．Find a different way to entertain your fingers．
Covering your mouth
3 At that moment，we didn't know how else to react but to cover our mouths．And there's nothing wrong with that．When you cover your mouth in the wrong setting，though，you might show that you're struggling with a lack of confidence，covering or masking your facial expressions．
Too weak or too strong of a handshake
With the right handshake，you can influence the way someone feels about you within the first few seconds．Handshakes are often the first impression someone has on you． 4 Too weak of a handshake signals that you're either struggling with confidence or uninterested in meeting the person you're shaking hands with．But too strong of a handshake signals that you don't respect the person． 5
A．Workplaces are a different story，though．
B．Everyone in such situations might behave like that．
C．So to show your respect，you should offer your praise first．
D．We've all experienced conversations where we've been shocked．
E．You might be sending the wrong message without even knowing．
F．That is why they are one of the most important tools of body language．
G．When you find the medium between the two，you'll master the art of handshaking．
