Lauren sighed.She’d just received an email from her boss,Gus,saying that the product plan she’d been working on wasn’t going to be signed off after all.It didn’t make any sense.A week ago she was in a meeting with Gus and it seemed he was really interested in it.Surely,he hadn’t made much eye contact,and he kept looking out of the window.But she’d just put that down to him being busy.
If Lauren had known a little more about body language,she’d have realised that Gus was trying to tell her he wasn’t sold on her idea.He just wasn’t using words.
Body language is the unspoken element (要素) of communication that people use to show their true feelings,for example,their gestures,facial expressions and postures.When we are able to read these signs,it works to our advantage.For example,it can help us know about people’s reaction to what we say so that we can know what we should say to make communication easier.
Difficult conversations are an uncomfortable fact of life.Perhaps you’ve had to deal with a difficult customer,or needed to talk to someone about his/her poor performance.Often these situations are complicated (使复杂化) by feelings of nervousness,stress,or even anger.People may try to hide them,but these feelings often show through body language.
If someone is showing the behaviour,he may be uninterested or unhappy: arms folded in front of the body; body turned away from you; eyes looking downwards.However,if someone really wants to hear what you say...
(　　)1.What happened to Lauren
A.She couldn’t understand what her boss said.
B.She fell far short of her boss’s expectations.
C.She misunderstood Gus’s body language.
D.She couldn’t work out a product plan.
(　　)2.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A.The meaning of reading body language.
B.The influence of body language.
C.The way to make full use of body language.
D.The reasons why people use body language.
(　　)3.What does Paragraph 4 tell us about body language
A.It leads to misunderstandings.
B.It helps us tell others’ feelings.
C.There are similarities in body language.
D.It is more useful than spoken language.
(　　)4.What will probably be talked about in the following paragraph
A.Body language that shows worry.
B.Body language that shows relief.
C.Body language that shows gratitude.
D.Body language that shows interest.UNIT 4　课时作业(二)

When we talk more broadly of body language,rather than good postures,we can actually see the effects it has on relationships right throughout the animal kingdom.In particular,body language is used to express power through expansive (扩张的) postures.
You might know about Cuddy’s famous speech and her incredible insights into how posture changes our thoughts.Cuddy and her team study body language,particularly what they call “high-power” and “low-power” poses.
“High-power” poses refer to the act of taking a posture of confidence,which can help you feel more self-confident,even after only two minutes.Typical high-power poses are about opening up.You stretch and expand your body to take up as much space as possible.For example,bosses are doing high-power poses when they lean back in their chairs,put their hands behind their heads,and kick their feet up onto their desks.Meanwhile,people take low-power poses when they’re feeling helpless or defeated.They close up,arms around themselves,taking up the smallest space.
Some even more recent studies took this even further: A study by researchers from Columbia and Harvard Universities showed that body language symbolising power can actually affect our decision-making,unintentionally.The researchers measured the desire for risk of participants in either expansive,powerful poses or constricted (收缩的) poses.Those in the powerful poses not only felt more powerful and in control,but were 45% more likely to take risky actions.
“This isn’t about what your body language is communicating to others;it’s about what your body language is communicating to you.Your body language is changing your mind,leading to changed behaviour,which in turn changes your outcomes,” said Cuddy.
So if you want to take advantage of the benefits of these poses to live a healthier and happier life,where should you start
(　　)1.Which is probably a low-power pose according to the passage
A.Sitting with hands crossed in the lap.
B.Arms raised in a “V” above the head.
C.Standing with your legs open.
D.Sitting with your arms spreading out on the chair.
(　　)2.What can we say about people in the expansive poses
A.They are hesitant.
B.They are very shy.
C.They feel out of control.
D.They feel more confident.
(　　)3.What is the passage mainly about
A.The posture of confidence.
B.Cuddy’s research on behaviour.
C.The surprising power of body language.
D.The research about decision-making.
(　　)4.What might be talked about in the following paragraph
A.How to correct bad habits.
B.How to improve your body language.
C.How posture affects your health.
D.Why good posture matters for employees.
Ⅳ.语法填空(共10题;每题1.5分,共15分)
Non-verbal communication is the process of sending and receiving messages without using words.It may 1.　　　　　　　　 (evaluate) in any social interaction because more than half of our communication takes place through body movements,facial expressions,gestures,eye contact,
posture,and tone of voice.In fact,a 2.　　　　 (politics) who only speaks will not be an efficient one.
However,3.　　　　 potential for misunderstanding is great,and these non-verbal signals can be in conflict with what someone is saying.For example,a person might say they oppose a new idea but their emphasis and tone of voice might suggest that they 4.　　　　 (be) actually in favour of it.Similarly,someone might advocate a particular course of action,but their body language might indicate that they don’t really believe in it 5.　　　　　　　　 (they).
The ability 6.　　　　　　　　 (understand) and use non-verbal communication,or body language,is one of the most powerful tools 7.　　　　 can help you connect with others,express what you really mean,and build better relationships.However,most of us only devote a small percentage of our time to 8.　　　　 (learn) how to read and understand non-verbal communication,or how to use our own body language to send out positive signals.
It’s true that some aspects of body language are inborn,but many are also learnt or 9.　　　　 (culture) determined.For example,while nodding your head means “yes” in most cultures,in some parts of Greece it means “no”.So,as well as being able to read other people’s signals,it’s important to be aware 10.　　 　　 your own body language and to be able to clarify what you really mean.

语篇导读:本文是说明文。文章主要通过Lauren的故事告诉我们肢体语言的重要性,并介绍了哪些肢体语言表明人们可能不感兴趣或不高兴。
答案及剖析:
1.C　细节理解题。根据第一段的最后三句和第二段内容可知,Lauren以为Gus对她的计划感兴趣,但事实上并非如此,Gus虽然没用语言,但他一直看着窗外,这个肢体语言表明了他对这个计划不感兴趣。由此可知,Lauren误解了Gus的肢体语言。故选C。
2.A　段落大意题。根据第三段的最后两句可知,了解肢体语言对我们有利,它可以帮助我们了解人们对我们所说的话的反应,使我们知道我们应该说些什么,从而使交流变得更容易。由此可知,第三段主要讲述的是读懂肢体语言的意义。故选A。
3.B　推理判断题。根据第四段的最后两句可知,在我们与人沟通的过程中,人们试图隐藏一些情感,例如紧张、压力甚至愤怒等,但这些情感往往会通过肢体语言表现出来。由此可知,第四段内容告诉我们肢体语言可以帮助我们判断别人的情感。故选B。
4.D　推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,最后一段首先介绍了哪些肢体语言表明人们可能不感兴趣或不高兴,再结合“However,if someone really wants to hear what you say ...”可知,下文介绍的应该是表现出感兴趣的肢体语言。故选D。UNIT 4　课时作业(一)

Words are powerful:They have the ability to lift up the lowest of the low or tear down the highest of the high.But a strong argument could be made that our body language is even more influential.The most effective communication occurs when the importance of body language in teaching is acknowledged.When these non-verbal signals are working together with our words,it creates communication synergy.
It has been suggested that two-thirds of our communication is non-verbal.Positive body language in a classroom setting has the ability to motivate,inspire and engage.It can not only give you the confidence you need to teach but also inform your students that you actually know what you’re talking about.It can even make your students feel safe and confident enough to participate in the lessons more frequently.
Most leadership positions encourage body language that shows power and confidence.Signals include standing tall,gesturing only from the waist up,head straight and forward,and talking while pointing to others,which are obvious ways to exercise control.But when teaching,the non-verbal signals need to show a different type of leader.These signals convey warmth and understanding,
reminding your students that you are approachable and there to help them grow.For example,fix your eyes on one student for about 15 to 30 seconds before changing to another student,which is one of the best ways to keep students’ focus.Nod your head.Give the thumbs up!Show them they are on the right path and they will be more confident in continuing down it.
The importance of body language can never be ignored.It’s desirable that you should advocate using body language in teaching and pay attention to the rules and skills of using it.You should use right,natural and clear body language.It’s crucial that you create good classroom atmosphere,inspire students’ imagination and grasp students’ moods.
(　　)1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1
A.Words are more powerful than body language in conveying meanings.
B.Non-verbal cues account for only a minor part of the communication.
C.Teachers should focus on their verbal expressions rather than their body language.
D.Combining body language and spoken communication enhances teaching effectiveness.
(　　)2.What do most leadership positions mainly express
A.Warmth.
B.Encouragement.
C.Understanding.
D.Control.
(　　)3.What’s the purpose of the last paragraph
A.To give suggestions.
B.To make a description.
C.To explain a theory.
D.To summarise a debate.
(　　)4.What is the passage mainly talking about
A.The value of teacher-student communication.
B.The effective ways of good communication.
C.The importance of teachers’ body language.
D.The prospect of students’ non-verbal learning.UNIT 4　课时作业(四)

Understand Your Pet’s Body Language
Body language is different depending on what sort of animal you have chosen as your pet.
1.　　　 Understanding your pet’s body language will help you to be a better communicator,as you can even copy some of its movements,expressions and sounds to send your message in a way it understands.
When dogs feel stressed out or threatened,their eyes will look larger than normal.If your dog isn’t looking directly at you,but is looking out of the corners of its eyes so that you see a lot of the whites of the eyes,it might be about to have an aggressive outburst.2.　　
If your cat looks at you and blinks at you slowly,it’s likely communicating affection.3.　　　 For cats,closing their eyes in the presence of another is a way to show trust.If your cat feels threatened,its tail will likely be upright; its back will likely be arched,too.
4.　　　 If your bird’s pupils (瞳孔) enlarge and shrink rapidly,this can be a sign that it’s excited or greatly interested,or scared or angry.5.　　　 Birds will shake their feathers while cleaning themselves; if their feathers remain shaking,however,this could mean they’re unwell,in which case,take them to an animal doctor for a checkup.
A.Pets’ health depends on your daily care.
B.You can do this back to your cat to show your love,too.
C.The context is important in telling which emotion it might be.
D.Birds can be quite expressive through their eyes and feathers.
E.If your dog is feeling stressed out or aggressive,its wide eyes will be accompanied by a rigid body.
F.Once familiar with each other’s presence and body language,cats and dogs can play together.
G.If you’re unsure of your pet’s body language,consider reading some articles about your specific animal.
语篇导读:本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一些宠物的肢体语言。
答案及剖析:
1.G　设空处上一句讲不同种类的宠物,其肢体语言不同,故下文应该是告诉读者根据自己的宠物种类来判断肢体语言的意思,G项介绍了解宠物肢体语言的途径,承接上文意思,符合语境。故选G。
2.E　上文“When dogs feel stressed out ...have an aggressive outburst.”阐述了当狗感到有压力或有攻击性时,其眼睛的变化。E项进一步描述了狗感到压力或有攻击性时的表现,承接上文,符合语境。故选E。
3.B　设空处上一句阐述了猫表达爱意时的肢体语言,B项建议人们也可以对自己的猫做同样的动作来表达爱意,承接上文,符合语境,且选项中的this指代上文中的“looks at ...and blinks at ...slowly”。故选B。
4.D　根据设空处后一句以及下文“Birds will shake their feathers ...an animal doctor for a checkup.”可知,本段主要阐述鸟用眼睛、羽毛等表达情感,D项符合本段主旨,起到引出下文的作用。故选D。
5.C　根据上文“If your bird’s pupils (瞳孔) enlarge ...or scared or angry.”可知,鸟通过迅速放大和缩小瞳孔来表达不同情绪,此时它或许感到兴奋或非常感兴趣,也或许是感到害怕或生气,C项指出情境对判断鸟的情绪很重要,承接上文,符合语境。故选C。

Boys and girls,
It’s my great honour to be here to deliver a speech about body language.
Body language plays an important role in people’s daily interactions with others.Not only can it help you make yourself more easily understood,but it also makes you adjust to new environments as soon as possible.So how do we put body language to good use First and foremost,when communicating with others,you need to smile and maintain eye contact,which will show others that you are a good listener.What’s more,you’d better nod your head from time to time to demonstrate that you’re paying attention.
Hopefully,you can realise the importance of body language and the above mentioned tips will go a long way towards your interactions with others.Thank you.UNIT 4　课时作业(一)

Words are powerful:They have the ability to lift up the lowest of the low or tear down the highest of the high.But a strong argument could be made that our body language is even more influential.The most effective communication occurs when the importance of body language in teaching is acknowledged.When these non-verbal signals are working together with our words,it creates communication synergy.
It has been suggested that two-thirds of our communication is non-verbal.Positive body language in a classroom setting has the ability to motivate,inspire and engage.It can not only give you the confidence you need to teach but also inform your students that you actually know what you’re talking about.It can even make your students feel safe and confident enough to participate in the lessons more frequently.
Most leadership positions encourage body language that shows power and confidence.Signals include standing tall,gesturing only from the waist up,head straight and forward,and talking while pointing to others,which are obvious ways to exercise control.But when teaching,the non-verbal signals need to show a different type of leader.These signals convey warmth and understanding,
reminding your students that you are approachable and there to help them grow.For example,fix your eyes on one student for about 15 to 30 seconds before changing to another student,which is one of the best ways to keep students’ focus.Nod your head.Give the thumbs up!Show them they are on the right path and they will be more confident in continuing down it.
The importance of body language can never be ignored.It’s desirable that you should advocate using body language in teaching and pay attention to the rules and skills of using it.You should use right,natural and clear body language.It’s crucial that you create good classroom atmosphere,inspire students’ imagination and grasp students’ moods.
(　　)1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1
A.Words are more powerful than body language in conveying meanings.
B.Non-verbal cues account for only a minor part of the communication.
C.Teachers should focus on their verbal expressions rather than their body language.
D.Combining body language and spoken communication enhances teaching effectiveness.

Ⅲ.阅读理解(共4题;每题2.5分,共10分)
When we talk more broadly of body language,rather than good postures,we can actually see the effects it has on relationships right throughout the animal kingdom.In particular,body language is used to express power through expansive (扩张的) postures.
You might know about Cuddy’s famous speech and her incredible insights into how posture changes our thoughts.Cuddy and her team study body language,particularly what they call “high-power” and “low-power” poses.
“High-power” poses refer to the act of taking a posture of confidence,which can help you feel more self-confident,even after only two minutes.Typical high-power poses are about opening up.You stretch and expand your body to take up as much space as possible.For example,bosses are doing high-power poses when they lean back in their chairs,put their hands behind their heads,and kick their feet up onto their desks.Meanwhile,people take low-power poses when they’re feeling helpless or defeated.They close up,arms around themselves,taking up the smallest space.
Some even more recent studies took this even further: A study by researchers from Columbia and Harvard Universities showed that body language symbolising power can actually affect our decision-making,unintentionally.The researchers measured the desire for risk of participants in either expansive,powerful poses or constricted (收缩的) poses.Those in the powerful poses not only felt more powerful and in control,but were 45% more likely to take risky actions.
“This isn’t about what your body language is communicating to others;it’s about what your body language is communicating to you.Your body language is changing your mind,leading to changed behaviour,which in turn changes your outcomes,” said Cuddy.
So if you want to take advantage of the benefits of these poses to live a healthier and happier life,where should you start
(　　)1.Which is probably a low-power pose according to the passage
A.Sitting with hands crossed in the lap.
B.Arms raised in a “V” above the head.
C.Standing with your legs open.
D.Sitting with your arms spreading out on the chair.
(　　)2.What can we say about people in the expansive poses
A.They are hesitant.
B.They are very shy.
C.They feel out of control.
D.They feel more confident.
(　　)3.What is the passage mainly about
A.The posture of confidence.
B.Cuddy’s research on behaviour.
C.The surprising power of body language.
D.The research about decision-making.
(　　)4.What might be talked about in the following paragraph
A.How to correct bad habits.
B.How to improve your body language.
C.How posture affects your health.
D.Why good posture matters for employees.
语篇导读:本文是说明文。文章讲述了肢体语言会通过扩张性姿势来表达力量感。
答案及剖析:
1.A　推理判断题。根据第三段最后两句可推知,双手交叉放在腿上坐着,缩小自己占用的空间,属于“低能量”姿势。故选A。
2.D　细节理解题。根据第三段第一句及第四段最后一句可知,摆出扩张性姿势的人通常会感到更加自信。故选D。
3.C　主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段可知,文章讲述了肢体语言对人际关系的影响,特别是通过扩张性姿势来表达力量感。由此可推知,C项“肢体语言的惊人力量”可以概括文章主要内容。故选C。
4.B　推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,此处提出一个疑问:如果想利用这些姿势的益处,过上更健康、更快乐的生活,应该要从何处着手。由此可推知,文章接下来可能会具体讨论从哪些方面入手来改善肢体语言。故选B。
Ⅳ.语法填空(共10题;每题1.5分,共15分)
Non-verbal communication is the process of sending and receiving messages without using words.It may 1.　　　　　　　　 (evaluate) in any social interaction because more than half of our communication takes place through body movements,facial expressions,gestures,eye contact,
posture,and tone of voice.In fact,a 2.　　　　 (politics) who only speaks will not be an efficient one.
However,3.　　　　 potential for misunderstanding is great,and these non-verbal signals can be in conflict with what someone is saying.For example,a person might say they oppose a new idea but their emphasis and tone of voice might suggest that they 4.　　　　 (be) actually in favour of it.Similarly,someone might advocate a particular course of action,but their body language might indicate that they don’t really believe in it 5.　　　　　　　　 (they).
The ability 6.　　　　　　　　 (understand) and use non-verbal communication,or body language,is one of the most powerful tools 7.　　　　 can help you connect with others,express what you really mean,and build better relationships.However,most of us only devote a small percentage of our time to 8.　　　　 (learn) how to read and understand non-verbal communication,or how to use our own body language to send out positive signals.
It’s true that some aspects of body language are inborn,but many are also learnt or 9.　　　　 (culture) determined.For example,while nodding your head means “yes” in most cultures,in some parts of Greece it means “no”.So,as well as being able to read other people’s signals,it’s important to be aware 10.　　 　　 your own body language and to be able to clarify what you really mean.
语篇导读:本文是说明文。文章主要说明了非语言交流的重要性以及除能够读懂别人的信号之外,重要的是要意识到自己的肢体语言,并能够阐明自己的真正意图。
答案及剖析:
1.be evaluated　考查动词的语态。此处主语与谓语构成被动关系,应用被动语态,且may为情态动词,后跟动词原形。故填be evaluated。
2.politician　考查名词。此处作主语,应用名词politician“政治家”,结合不定冠词a可知,应用名词单数。故填politician。
3.the　考查冠词。此处特指“误解的可能性”,应用定冠词。故填the。
4.are　考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据上文oppose可知,时态为一般现在时,主语为they,谓语用复数。故填are。
5.themselves　考查反身代词。根据上文they可知,此处指“他们自己”,应用反身代词themselves。故填themselves。
6.to understand　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处应用动词不定式作ability的后置定语。故填to understand。
7.that　考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,此处是定语从句,先行词是tools,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,且先行词由最高级the most修饰,只能用关系代词that。故填that。
8.learning　考查非谓语动词。固定短语devote time to doing sth意为“花费时间做某事”,to是介词,应用动名词作宾语。故填learning。
9.culturally　考查副词。此处修饰过去分词determined,应用副词形式。故填culturally。
10.of　考查介词。固定短语be aware of表示“意识到”。故填of。UNIT 4　课时作业(四)

Understand Your Pet’s Body Language
Body language is different depending on what sort of animal you have chosen as your pet.
1.　　　 Understanding your pet’s body language will help you to be a better communicator,as you can even copy some of its movements,expressions and sounds to send your message in a way it understands.
When dogs feel stressed out or threatened,their eyes will look larger than normal.If your dog isn’t looking directly at you,but is looking out of the corners of its eyes so that you see a lot of the whites of the eyes,it might be about to have an aggressive outburst.2.　　
If your cat looks at you and blinks at you slowly,it’s likely communicating affection.3.　　　 For cats,closing their eyes in the presence of another is a way to show trust.If your cat feels threatened,its tail will likely be upright; its back will likely be arched,too.
4.　　　 If your bird’s pupils (瞳孔) enlarge and shrink rapidly,this can be a sign that it’s excited or greatly interested,or scared or angry.5.　　　 Birds will shake their feathers while cleaning themselves; if their feathers remain shaking,however,this could mean they’re unwell,in which case,take them to an animal doctor for a checkup.
A.Pets’ health depends on your daily care.
B.You can do this back to your cat to show your love,too.
C.The context is important in telling which emotion it might be.
D.Birds can be quite expressive through their eyes and feathers.
E.If your dog is feeling stressed out or aggressive,its wide eyes will be accompanied by a rigid body.
F.Once familiar with each other’s presence and body language,cats and dogs can play together.
G.If you’re unsure of your pet’s body language,consider reading some articles about your specific animal.
