We lived too close for a bus pick-up but also too far from the school for my 1st grader to walk home alone. It had become common for my daughter, little son and I to walk the 6 blocks every afternoon.On one of those afternoons it began to rain about halfway to the school. My son was protected by his carriage cover and a blanket, but my daughter and I were getting soaked(淋湿). When a car pulled up to the roadside with a lone male driver in it. I panicked(惊慌) and began walking faster. The man, apparently realizing my fear, got out of the car (getting wet himself), handed me an umbrella, got back in his car and drove off.This small, but wonderful gesture proved to me that even with all the chaos(混乱) in the world there are still some people who will go out of their way to help others. This man was not looking for public praise, or trying to look good for anyone. He just did something nice, on his own. To that man, if you read this, many, many thanks.56.

We can infer that the text is .A. a diary B. a book review C. a letter of appreciation D. a news reportBIn our daily life, though nearly all people use the same kinds of basic body language, there are many tiny differences between different groups of people. Knowing how to correctly use body language with different groups of people is very important for communicating well.While communicating with people across borders, you need to study not only language differences, but gesture and body language. For instance, in America, pretending to cut your throat means, “I want to harm you.” But in Swaziland it means, “I love you.” It is perfectly acceptable to cross your legs in American culture, but in countries such as Turkey, it is considered highly offensive.Different age groups of people communicate through body language in different ways, so you should learn the different ways they communicate with each other. Small children use body language to get what they want, while adults and the elderly use it to make a point and to understand others better.Even though they may be communicating the same idea, men and women each use slightly different sets of body language.No matter what group of people youre tying to communicate with, it is always important to understand how you use your body to communicate with them.Thank you for listening. Next time we will talk about something related to dialect(方言).61. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Why people dont know how to use body language well.B.
