It speaks 36than words According to specialists， our bodies send out more37than we realize In fact， non-verbal(非言语) communication takes up about 50% of what we really 38 And body language is particularly 39when we attempt to communicate across culturesIndeed，what is called body language is so 40a part of us that its actually often unnoticedAnd misunderstandings occur as a result of it 41， different societies treat the 42between people differently Northern Europeans usually do not like having 43contact(接触)even with friends，and certainly not with 44 People from Latin American countries， 45， touch each other quite a lot Therefore， its possible that in 46， it may look like a Latino is 47a Norwegian all over the room The Latino， trying to express friendship， will keep moving 48 The Norwegian， very probably seeing this as pushiness， will keep 49 which the Latino will in return regard as 50 Clearly， a great deal is going on when people 51 And only a part of it is in the words themselves And when parties are from 52 cultures， theres a strong possibility of 53 But whatever the situation， the best 54is to obey the Golden Rule： treat others as you would like to be

However， the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees nest(巢)and take the honey from it Often， these nests are high up in trees， and it is difficult to find them In parts of Africa， though， people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper a little bird called a honey guideThe honey guide does not actually like honey， but it does like the wax (蜂蜡) in the beehives (蜂房)The little bird cannot reach this wax，which is deep inside the bees nestSo，when it finds a suitable nest，it looks for someone to help itThe honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and peopleOnce it has their attention，it flies through the forest，waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nestWhen they finally arrive at the nest， the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches Some of the honey， and the wax， always falls to the ground， and this is when the honey guide takes its share Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax， but it is very determined in its efforts to get it The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives， and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit56Why is it difficult to find a wild bees nest?AIts small in size BIts hidden in treesCIts covered with wax DIts hard to recognize57What do the words "the follower" in Paragraph 2 refer to?AA bee BA bird CA honey seeker DA beekeeper58The honey guide is special in the way Ait gets its food Bit goes to churchCit sings in the forest Dit reaches into bees nests59What can be the best title for the text?AWild Bees BWax and HoneyCBeekeeping in Africa DHoney-Lovers HelperBAbout twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd-scene Although our "act" would last only for a short time， we could see quite a number of interesting thingsWe all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene， setting up trees at the edge of a winding path Very soon， bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby Since it was hot in the studio， it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him， and soon the trees were covered in "snow" Two more fans were turned on， and a "strong wind" blew through the trees The picture looked so real that it made us feel coldThe next scene was a complete contrast (对比) The way it was filmed was quite unusual Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen (幕) An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the waters edge on an island By a simple trick like this， palm trees， sandy beaches， and blue， clear skies had been brought into the studio!Since it was our turn next， we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film "stars"!60Who is the author?AA cameraman BA film directorCA crowd-scene actor DA workman for scene setting61What made the author feel cold?AThe heavy snowfall BThe man-made sceneCThe low temperature DThe film being shown62What would happen in the "three minutes" mentioned in the last paragraph?AA new scene would be filmedBMore stars would act in the filmCThe author would leave the studioDThe next scene would be preparedCLast night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg，a distance of about eighty miles It was late Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left， and I became increasingly impatientAt one point along an open road， I came to a crossing with a traffic light I was alone on the road by now， but as I drove near the light， it turned red and I made a stop I looked left， right and behind me Nothing Not a car， no suggestion of car lamps， but there I sat， waiting for the light to change， the only human being for at least a mile in any directionI started wondering why I refused to run the light I was not afraid of being caught， because there was clearly no policeman around， and there certainly would have been no danger in going through itMuch later that night， the question of why Id stopped for that light came back to me I think I stopped because its part of a contract(契约)we all have with each other Its not only the law， but its an agreement we have， and we trust each other to honor it： we dont go through red lightsTrust is our first inclination(倾向)Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us The whole construction of our society depends on mutual(相互)trust， not distrust We do what we say well do； we show up when we say well show up； and we pay when we say well pay We trust each other in these matters， and were angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in themI was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night63Why did the author get impatient while driving?AHe was lonely on the roadBHe was slowed down by a truckCHe got tired of driving too longDHe came across too many traffic lights64What was the authors immediate action when the traffic light turned red?AStopping stillBDriving through itCLooking around for other carsDChecking out for traffic police65The event made the author strongly believe that  Atraffic rules may be unnecessaryBdoubting others is human natureCpatience is important to driversDa society needs mutual trust66Why was the author proud of himself?AHe kept his promise BHe held back his angerCHe followed his inclination DHe made a right decisionDGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle， twinkle， little star" or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three BearsOne explanation is the law of overlearning， which can be stated as follows： Once we have learned something， additional learning trials(尝试)increase the length of time we will remember itIn childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming， bicycle riding， and playing baseball long after we have learned them We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as "Twinkle， twinkle， little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks We not only learn but overlearnThe multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickl
