课时分层作业(十二)Ⅰ.阅读ASometimes people add to what they say even when they don't talk.Gestures are the “silent language” of every culture.We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say.It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.In the USA，people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction.The handshake must be firm.If the handshake is weak，it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness.Friends may place a hand on the other's arm or shoulder.Some people，usually women，greet a friend with a hug.Space is important to Americans.When two people talk to each other，they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle (角度)，so they are not facing each other directly.Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close.They will move back to have their space.If Americans touch another person by accident，they say，“Pardon me” or “Excuse me”．Americans like to look at the other person in the eyes when they are talking.If you don't do so，it means you are bored，hiding something，or are not interested.But when you stare at someone，it is not polite.For Americans，thumbs up means yes，very good，or well done.Thumbs down means the opposite.To call a waiter，raise one hand to head level or above.To show you want the check，make a movement with your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper.It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger(食指)．Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.Learning a culture's body language is sometimes confusing.If you don't know what to do，the safest thing to do is to smile.【语篇解读】　本文介绍了学习身势语在跨文化交流中的重要性。1．If you are introduced to a stranger in the USA，you should ．A．greet him with a hugB．place a hand on his shoulderC．shake his hand firmlyD．shake his hand weaklyC　[细节理解题。根据第二段前三句可知，在美国，当相互介绍的时候，与对方握手要用力，否则会被视为不友好，故C项最佳。]2．Which behavior is acceptable when people talk to each other in the USA?A．Facing each other directly.B．Touching each other.C．Not looking at the other person in the eyes.D．Not standing too close.D　[细节理解题。根据第三段第三、四句可知，美国人谈话时不会离得太近。由第三段内容可知其他三项即“直面对方、互相触摸以及眼睛不看对方”都不是恰当的行为。]3．When your American friend gives you a thumbsup，he may ．A．express his satisfaction with youB．show his anger at youC．show his rudeness to youD．express his worries about youA　[细节理解题。根据第四段第一、二句可知，对美国人来说，竖起拇指意味着“干得很好”，拇指朝下表达意思相反。]BAmy Cuddy，a Harvard psychologist，has devoted her studies to the influence body language that has on your confidence...and finally，success.Her biggest findings center on the powerful effects of positive body language.Positive body language includes things like proper eye contact，active listening，and gestures that show the message you're trying to express.Studies show that people who use positive body language are more likable (讨人喜欢的)，persuasive，and emotionally intelligent.Here's how it works：Positive body language changes your attitude.Cuddy found that consciously (有意识地) changing your body language to make it more positive improves your attitude because it has a powerful influence on your body.It makes you more likable.In a Tufts University study，people watched soundless videos of doctors interacting with their patients.Just by observing the doctors' body language，people were able to guess which doctors ended up getting complained by their patients.Body language plays a big role in how you're viewed and can be more important than your voice or even what you say.Learning to use positive body language will make people like you and trust you more.It improves your emotional intelligence.Your ability to effectively communicate your emotions and ideas is central to your emotional intelligence.People whose body language is negative have a destructive effect on those around them.Working to improve your body language has a great effect on your emotional intelligence.We often think of body language as the result of our attitude or how we feel.This is true，but psychologists have also shown that the opposite is true：changing your body language changes your attitude.Have you felt the influence from changing your body language?
