We often use gestures or body movements to stress what we are saying. For example, when I lecture (演讲), I often use my hands to emphasize (强调) points or point to something on the blackboard. Some people use them more than others. The victory (胜利) sign, the OK sign, the goodbye wave and the blowing of a kiss are all popular gestures in America. It is important to recognize, however, that most gestures are not universally recognized. For example, although the OK gesture means acceptance in America, it has other meanings in other cultures. In France it means worthlessness. And in Greece, it is considered obscene (淫秽).There are some sex differences in nonverbal behavior. In American culture, men tend to sit or stand with legs apart and hands outward, while women tend to keep legs together and hands at their sides. Women are also better than men at understanding nonverbal gestures. A nonverbal behavior is to have the tongue just slightly protruding (突出) from the mouth. A study showed that people were less willing to approach others who had their tongues showing. Perhaps this is why people often tend to avoid individuals with bad nonverbal behaviors. When we make decisions about other people, we learn to recognize nonverbal cues (提示) and interpret (理解) them along with verbal information. 36. From the passage we can know that _.A. body language in America is more popular than in other countriesB. the deferent cultures share the same body languagesC. the same gestures in deferent cultures may have the deferent meaningsD. body language is more important than words37. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Womens body language is easier to understand.B. Women have a better understanding of body language than men.C. In American culture, men care more about their gestures than women.D. In American culture, men and women always employ the deferent gestures.38. It may be concluded from this passage that _.A. body language can completely replace wordsB. different cultures share different nonverbal behaviorsC. body language sounds louder than verbal informationD. body language can be helpful for us to communicate with each other BMost good interviewers will make an effort to establish and keep eye contact. Make sure that you do not find yourself looking down or away. If you wear glasses, be sure to buy the non-glare lenses. Do not stare. Rapidly nodding your head can leave the impression that you are impatient and too eager to add something to the conversation - if only the interviewer would let you. Slower nodding, on the other hand, emphasizes interest, shows that you are validating (确认) the comments of your interviewer, and encourages him to continue. Tilting (倾斜) the head slightly, when combined with eye contact and a natural smile, shows friendliness and approachability (可接近的). Your smile is one of the most powerful positive body signals. Everybody looks better when they smile. Offer an unforced, confident smile. Avoid at all costs the technique that some applicants use: grinning idiotically (白痴般地裂口笑) for the length of the interview, no matter what. This will only communicate that you are insincere (虚假的).Its worth remembering that the mouth provides a seemingly limitless supply of opportunities to convey weakness. This may be done by touching the mouth frequently; "faking" a cough when confused with a difficult question; and /or gnawing (咬) on ones lips absentmindedly (茫然地). Employing any of these "insincerity signs" when you are asked about say, why you lost your last job, will confirm (确认) or instill (慢慢灌输) suspicions about your honesty.39. The mouth may make your weakness known by _ according to the passage.A. pretending to be coughing B. having an unforced smile C. blowing a kiss D. showing your teeth 40. The main purpose of this text is to _.A. tell you how to communicate with others effectively.B. show you how to make yourself more understandable C. remind you of respecting the interviewer.D. give you some advice on facial signals for job interviews 41. What does the underlined word “suspicion” in the last paragraph mean?A. understanding B. uncertainty C. expressionD. agreement42. Which facial signal can cause you to lose an opportunity of being employed?A. Gnawing on ones lips. B. blowing a kiss C. A natural smile. D. Touching the mouth occasionally. CMost people agree that the direct, assertive (过分自信的) American personality is a virtue, but it sometimes surprises foreigners. In many cultures, respect for older people or those in positions of authority keeps others from expressing their true feelings. But in the U.S, children often argue with their parents, students may disagree with their teachers, and citizens may express opposition to the actions of the government. If the soup has a fly in it or the meat is too tough to chew, the diner can complain to the waiter, if the boss makes a mistake, an employee will politely point it out.Some straight talk about the American character must include the admission that Americans have their faults. The extremely competitive nature of Americans is probably their worst fault. Of course, competition isnt always bad. As a matter of fact, it promotes excellence by encouraging individuals and businesses to try to do their best. But the desire to get ahead of others sometimes causes people to do things that are unkind and even dishonest. Also, Americans admire what is practical, fast, efficient, and fresh. Sometimes they fail to understand and appreciate practices that have greater respect for more traditional, leisurely ways of doing things. On the other hand, people from other cultures may dislike the practical, challenging American lifestyle.Despite culture differences, most foreigners give Americans credit for their virtues. Americans are generally viewed as friendly, adaptable, energetic, and kindhearted. Most newcomers to the U.S. like Americans, and the feeling is usually mutual. Perhaps the greatest American virtue is a deep interest in new ideas and new people. In a nation of immigrants, the foreigner does not remain an outsider for long.43. In order to show the respect for older people, .A. people from some other cultures will always express their true feelingB. people from some other cultures may sometimes hide their true feelingC. Americans always show their true feelingsD. Americans usually argue with them44. Why is the extremely competitive nature considered as one of American faults?A. Because people from other cultures fear competition.B. Because only American people own it.C. Because it will make people forget leisure.D. Because it may sometimes urge people to do something bad.45. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. American people are more critical of everything than people from other culturesB. the author believes that American character has more faults than virtuesC. the author admires American virtues as they are viewed as competitive and anti traditionalD. it is difficult for newcomers to get on with Americans46. The passage mainly talks about .A. American virtues B. American characters C. American faults D.
