1、2011年 3月湖南省长望浏宁四县（市）高三调研英语卷 其他 Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage . According to one study, words send only 7 percent of a persons message. Intonation (语调 ) and voice quality communicate 38 percent, and nonverbal(not using o

2、r involving words) cues (暗示 ) transmit a large 55 percent. That means people pick up more from nonverbal communication than from the words a person says. When studying a foreign culture then, it just makes sense to pay attention to how people use nonverbal cues. Gestures consist of a major form of n

3、onverbal communication. But often these gestures are culture-bound. For example, when the Maoris of New Zealand stick out (伸出 ) their tongue at someone, it is a sign of respect. When American schoolchildren make the same gesture, it means just the opposite. Also, Americans often indicate “OK” with t

4、heir thumb and fore-finger touching to form a circle. The same gesture means “money” to the Japanese and “zero” to the French. For that reason, people in a foreign culture must use gestures with caution. Another part of nonverbal communication is the one that you might not think about space. When so

5、meone comes too close, he feels uncomfortable. When he knocks into someone, he feels obligated (有义务的 ) to apologize. But the size of a persons “comfort zone” varies, depending on his cultural or ethnic origin. For example, in casual conversation, many Americans stand about four feet apart. People in

6、 Latin or Arabic cultures, instead, stand very close to each other and touch each other often. Considering the effects of nonverbal communication, we never really stop communicating. How we walk, how we stand and how we use our hands all send a message to others. Thats why its possible to “read some

7、one like a book”. 【小题 1】 How does an American feel when an Arab stands too close to him （ no more than 3 words） _ 【小题 2】 What does the gesture “OK” mean in Japan （ no more than 3 words） _ 【小题 3】 Why do we pay more attention to nonverbal cues in a foreign country （ no more than 10 words） _ 【小题 4】 Why
