Generally, the expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a

25、 language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationa

26、lly; spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction. Other fo

27、rms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille(a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people. While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniqu

28、es also express human thoughts and feeling. 51 Which of the following statements best summarizes this passage? （ A） When language is a barrier, people will find other forms of communication. （ B） Everybody uses only one form of communication. （ C） Nonlinguistic language is invaluable to foreigners.

29、（ D） Although other forms of communication exist, verbalization is the fastest. 52 Which of the following statements is not true? （ A） There are many forms of communication in existence today. （ B） Verbalization is the most common form of communication. （ C） The deaf and mute use an oral form of com

30、munication. （ D） Ideas and thoughts can be transmitted by body language. 53 Which form other than oral speech would be most commonly used among blind people? （ A） Picture signs. （ B） Braille. （ C） Body languageu. （ D） Signal flags. 54 How many different forms of communication are mentioned here? （ A

31、） 5. （ B） 7. （ C） 9. （ D） 11. 55 Sign language is said to be very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally except for_. （ A） spelling （ B） ideas （ C） whole words （ D） expressions 55 To forgive may be divine, but no one ever said it was easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be e

32、xtremely difficult to let go of your grudge. But forgiveness is possibleand it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. “People who forgive show less depression, anger and stress and more hopefulness,“ says Frederic, Ph. D., author of Forgive for Good. “So it can help save

33、on the wear and tear on our organs, reduce the wearing out of the immune system and allow people to feel more vital.“ So how do you start the healing? Try following these steps: Calm yourself. To defuse your anger, try a simple stress-management technique. “Take a couple of breaths and think of some

34、thing that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love,“ Frederic says. Dont wait for an apology. “Many times the person who hurt you has no intention of apologizing,“ Frederic says. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way. So if you wait for

35、 people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.“ Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean reconciliation with the person who upset you or condoning of his or her action. Take the control away from your offender. Mentally replaying your hurt gives power to the person w

36、ho caused you pain. “Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you,“ Frederic says. Try to see things from the other persons perspective. If you empathize with that person, you empathize with that person, you may realize that he or she was a

37、cting out of ignorance, fear, even love. To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offenders point of view. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness. Research has shown that people who forgive report more energy, better appetite and better sleep patterns. Dont forget to

38、forgive yourself. “For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge,“ Frederic says. “But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you dont do it.“ 56 Forgiveness is_. （ A） easy to do （ B） noble （ C） only beneficial to physical health （ D） impossible to get your grudge go 57 What does

39、 “wear and tear“ mean? （ A） Damage resulting from ordinary use. （ B） Energy. （ C） Friction. （ D） Moisture. 58 Which is NOT the technique of healing? （ A） Inhale deeply. （ B） Mentally replay your hurt often. （ C） Distract your attention. （ D） Think in another point of view. 59 Which of the following

40、can be inferred from the passage? （ A） The person who hurt you is sure to make an apology to you later on. （ B） You may condone others wrong doings. （ C） Forgiveness doesnt equal obeyance. （ D） You should negotiate with the person who upset you. 60 What is the main idea of the passage? （ A） Ways to

41、get well from your hurt. （ B） To forgive may be divine, but no one ever said it was easy. （ C） Forgiveness benefits to your physical and mental health. （ D） An introduction to the book Forgive for Good. 60 Do we need laws that prevent us from running risks with our lives? If so, then perhaps laws ar

42、e needed prohibiting the sale of cigarettes and alcoholic drinks. Both products have been known to kill people. The hazards of drinking too much alcohol are as bad as or worse than the hazards of smoking too many cigarettes. All right then, lets pass a law closing the liquor stores and the bars in t

43、his country. Lets put an end once and for all to the ruinous disease from which as many as 10 million Americans currently suffer alcoholism. But wait, weve already tried that. For 13 years, between 1920 and 1933, there were no liquor stores anywhere in the United States. They were shut down abolishe

44、d by an amendment to the Constitution(the 18th)and by a law of Congress(the Volstead Act). After January 20, 1920, there was supposed to be no more manufacturing, selling, or transporting of “intoxicating liquor“. Without any more liquor, people could not drink it, and if they did not drink it, how

45、could they get drunk? There would be no more dangers to the public welfare from drunkenness and alcoholism. It was all very logical. And yet prohibition of liquor, beer, and wine did not work. Why? Because, law or no law, millions of people still liked to drink alcohol. And they were willing to take

46、 risks of getting it. They were not about to change their tastes and habits just because of a change in the law. And gangs of liquor smugglers made it easy to buy an illegal drink. They smuggled millions of gallons of the outlawed beverages across the Canadian and Mexican boarders. Drinkers were luc

47、ky to know of an illegal bar that served Mexican or Canadian liquor. Crime and drunkenness were both supposed to decline as a result of prohibition; instead people drank more alcohol than ever often poisoned alcohol. On December 5, 1933, they repealed prohibition by ratifying the 21st Amendment to t

48、he Constitution. 61 Which of the following was NOT a characteristic reason for the proposal of the 18 Amendment to the Constitution and the Volstead Act? （ A） There would be no further danger to the public from alcoholism. （ B） There would be a rise in the cost of alcoholic beverages. （ C） Without l

49、iquor, people would not drink. （ D） People wouldnt become drunk or create a public nuisance. 62 During prohibition, illegal alcohol was_. （ A） sold openly （ B） no longer a temptation （ C） a major factor in the passage of the Volstead Act （ D） brought across the Mexican and Canadian borders 63 When enacting the
