12、Okay, talk to you later! Love you!“ 三阅读理解 For years, international swimming has been controlled by a small number of powerful nations. The U.S, Russia, Germany and Australia have produced some of the sports finest players and have won most of the top competitions and medals. But the results of this
13、months world championships, which are being held in the Australian city of Perth, will not be so easy to predict. Since the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, many new names and nationalities have emerged to take on the world leaders. The 1996 Olympics should have been an opportunity for the U.S to display i
14、ts great swimming power, but instead it faced some embarrassing defeats. The surprises started on the first day of the competitions, when Fred of Belgium set a world record in the competition for 100-metres breast-stroke(蛙泳). Never before had Belgium produced an Olympic champion swimmer. Two other c
15、ountries also won swimming gold medals for the first time on the opening day. Irelands Michelle Smith delighted her country with the first of her three gold medals. New Zealand also celebrated with Danyon Loaders gold in the mens 200-metres free style. Loader went on to win the 400 meters later in t
16、he competition. But late on the second day, the U.S teams officials and coaches were starting to be surprised. Penny Heyns of South Africa had broken the womens 100-metre breast-stroke record in the morning competitions before claiming gold in the final. 31. It is hard to predict the results of this

20、ng. D. Belgium had won several world swimming championships We all communicate with one another using both verbal and nonverbal language. Most of the time, however, we are not even aware that were doing it. We move around in our chairs, gesture with eyebrows or a hand, meet someone elses eyes and lo
21、ok away. These are some of the many small and random things we do. But researchers have discovered in recent years that there is a system to these gestures. Every culture has its own body language, and children understand and learn its meanings, along with words. For example, a Frenchman talks and m
22、oves in French ways, while an Englishman and a male American cross their legs very differently. It is also interesting to note that in talking, Americans are likely to end a sentence with a dropping of the head or hand, as well as with a lowering of the eyelids. They finish up a question with a rais
23、e of the hand, a lift of the chin, or a widening of the eyes. Whats more, there are regional phrases too; an expert can sometimes pick out a native of Wisconsin just by the way a person uses his or her eyebrows during conversations. Everything from your sex, racial background, social class, and comm
24、unication style all influences your body language. A person who truly knows two languages uses both body languages too. A good example of this is New Yorks famous mayor, Fiorello La Guardia, who communicated in English, Italian and Yiddish.When films of his speeches are run without sound, its not to
25、o difficult to tell from his gestures the language being spoken. In fact, one of the reasons English-dubbed foreign films often seem flat is that the gestures just dont match the language. Usually, our body language acts to further emphasize our words. What the nonverbal gestures put across very oft
26、en and very efficiently is the emotional side of the message. This is clear when a person feels liked or disliked, as he or she will often communicate emotion “not in what is said but in the way it is said“. Psychologist Albert Mehrabian invented this rule: Total communication = 7 percent verbal + 3
27、8 percent oral + 55 percent facial. It shows the importance of body language. But experts in the study of communication through body movement are not yet prepared to spell out an exact dictionary of gestures, as body movements can mean many things. For example, a student in conversation with a profe
28、ssor may hold the older persons eyes a little longer than usual. This gesture can be a sign of respect and love; it can be a small challenge to the professors authority; or it can be something else entirely. 36.On what occasion can strange things happen when we use body language? （） A. When it is us
29、ed among people of the same culture. B. When it is used among people with different cultures. C. When it is used among people with the same social background. D.When it is used among native language speakers. 37.What does an “A-OK“ gesture mean in Japan? （） A. It means “zero“. B. B. It means “good“.
30、 C. It means “money“. D. It means “toilet“. 38.Why does the Sardinian woman hit the British man with her handbag? （） A. Because the man asks her a rude question B. Because the man doesnt tell her how to find a taxi. C. Because the man offers to take her to Heathrow Airport. D. Because the man makes
31、a thumbs-up gesture to her, which she thinks a rude one. 39.Why is the Colombian made angry by the Frenchman? A. Because the Frenchman drinks his wine. B. Because the Colombian swallows the wine the wrong way. C. Because the Colombian thinks the Frenchman made a mean gesture to him. D. Because the F

33、s sold, and several Grammy awards to show for it, Natalie Cole, the daughter of famous singer Nat King Cole, has made a name for herself in music. Along with her great success, however, Natalie Cole has lived in a world of drugs, crime, and failed marriages. “I have been to hell and back,“ she says.
34、 In the book Angel on My Shoulder, Cole gives us an honest look at the difficult path she has taken, sharing, as well, her successful recovery. “Where Im at now helps me to look back on my life and realize that Ive really had quite a colorful and rich life,“ she says. “I really could have turned out

Only two years after being arrested and almost dying because of drugs, Coles first record won two Grammies. In 1976, she married Marvin Yancy, her songwr
39、iter and producer. They soon had a son, Robbie, and Coles life really seemed to be coming together. “Marriage to Marvin, and Robbie, was like a breath of pure, fresh air,“ she says. “I was with a man whom I loved and who loved me. we were just so close.“ Sadly, the marriage wouldnt last. After four
40、years of being drug-free, Cole was once again using. In 1983, Cole checked herself into a recovery program, and was finally able to mend the wounds from her difficult past. After narrowly escaping death once again, Cole decided to record her fathers greatest hits, including the phenomenal success Un
