As you know, different countries have different customs. Also there are many gestures showing many meanings in many countries. Here are a few examples of gestures. A fisherman in Britain will show the size of the fish he has caught by holding his two hands, palms(手掌)facing each other, the right distance apart in front of him. But the one from certain part of Africa will measure off the size along his left arm with his right hand. In Britain the gesture to show the number“one”is made by holding up the index finger(the second finger), but in Switzerland it is the thumb—the first finger which is held up. Some people point at objects with fingers, others by sticking out the lips. The gesture for“come here”is made in Britain with the index finger, which is held, pointing upwards, at eye level and bent towards the body; in Egypt the hand is held at arm's length, palm downwards, and the fingers are then bent. The difference between the movements is very important, and the meanings of the same gesture may be opposite in different countries. It may bring trouble to those not well known with it.
1．This passage is mainly about________.
A．different people in different countries
B．how to understand the gestures in Britain
C．the different meanings of gestures in different countries
D．how to show a gesture in Egypt
答案：C 主旨题。本文的主题是讲不同国家的手势语，所以答案选C。
2．Which of the following gestures shows the number“one”in Switzerland?
答案：B 推断题。从文中第六句“...but in Switzerland it is the thumb—the first finger which is help up”可知，在瑞士是把大拇指伸出来，而图A伸出的是食指，图C是伸出大拇指和食指，图D是伸出小拇指，故答案选B。
3．Sometimes difference between the movements in different countries may bring about________to you.
A．a good luck
B．a new world
C．an ill effect
D．happiness
答案：C 细节题。从文中最后一句“若你不知道这些差异的话可能会给你带来麻烦”可知此题答案为C。an ill effect“不良影响”。
4．According to the passage we should________.
A．look before we leap
B．pick and choose
C．strike while the iron is hot
D．do in Rome as the Romans do
答案：D 推断题。通读全文可知，不同的国家有不同的身势语言，要想避免误解，就要入乡随俗(do in Rome as the Romans do)。
B
A simple gesture can be formed into a child' s memory so quickly that it will cause the child to give a false answer to a question accompanied by that gesture. A new finding suggests that parents, social workers, psychologists and lawyers should be careful with their hands as well as their words.
Gestures can be as informative as speech, but hand gestures are so common that we rarely notice when we' re using them.
While the recollection(回忆) of both adults and children is easy to react to suggestion, the memories of children are known to be particularly influenced, said lead researcher Sara Broaders of Northwestern University. Kids are used to looking to adults to tell events for them and can be misled even if not intentionally.
Previous research, for example, has shown that detailloaded questions often cause false answers; when asked, say, “Did you drink juice at the picnic？” the child is likely to say
“yes” even if no juice had been available. It' s not that the child is consciously lying. Rather, the detail is quickly formed into his or her memory.
To avoid this problem, social workers have long been advised to ask children only openended questions,
such as “What did you have at the picnic？” But an openended question paired with a gesture, briefly meaning a juice box, is treated like a detailed question.
That is, children become likely to answer falsely.
And it isn't just a few kids: 77% of children gave at least one piece of false information when a detail was suggested by an ordinary gesture.
Gestures may also become more popular when talking with nonfluent language users, such as little kids, Broaders said, as hand movements can impart meaning of unfamiliar words and phrases. “It certainly seems reasonable that adults would gesture more with children.”
In general, Broaders advises parents and other adults to “try to be aware of your hands when questioning a child about an event. Otherwise, you might be getting answers that don' t reflect what actually happened.”
本文是一篇说明文。手势语在一定程度上会增加相互间的理解，然而，它也有消极的作用，即误导对方，尤其是会误导孩子。本文探索了其中的原因。
5．According to the text, gestures ________.
A. have not any function at all
B．are rarely used by people
C．have certain effect on children
D．are often used by social workers
答案：C 细节理解题。文章第一段就已经提出手势语对孩子有影响，而全文都在说明这一观点，故答案选C。
6．Why are kids easy to be misled by gestures accroding to Sara Broaders?
A. These gestures are very attractive.
B．Their memories are affected easily.
C．Children are easy to tell lies.
D．These gestures are used frequently.
答案：B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段的第一句和文章第三段可知，主要原因是孩子的记忆很容易受到外界(具体问题或者暗示性手势等)的影响。故答案选B。
7．According to the text, which of the following questions may cause a wrong reply?
A. What will you have for lunch?
B. Did you cheat in the last English examination?
C. Where are you going, Lucy?
D. Did you see anything else last night?
答案：B 推理判断题。根据文章第四段和第五段，开放性问题容易得到与实际相符的答案，而封闭性、具体性的问题则会导致回答与事实不符。选项中A、C、D都属于前者。故答案选B。
8．The underlined word “impart” in Paragraph 6 means ______.
A. separate
B. tell apart C. confuse
D. pass on
答案：D 词义猜测题。本段最后一句话说大人对孩子使用更多的手势语是非常有理由的。其原因就是前一句话，即手势语能够传达那些不熟悉的单词和短语的含义。故答案选D。
9．What would be the best title for the text?
A. Gestures—a Useful Way of Education
B．Gestures Can Mislead Children
C．Gestures Mean Adults' Directions
D．Gestures Affect Children Much
答案：B 标题概括题。整篇文章主要是介绍了一项研究结果，手势语会对孩子产生误导作用。选项D表达太宽泛。故答案选B。
