12、 foreign policy.11.IV Reading ComprehensionPassage 1Directions: Read the passage carefully, then answer the following five questions.Sign language is a way of talking by using signs. Indians used sign language when they met strangers. In this way, they could find out whether the stranger was a frien
13、d or an enemy. In Indian sign language, signs were made with the hands. One sign meant “man“. Another meant “horse“. To tell the time of day when something happened , an Indian pointed to the sky. He showed where the sun had been at the time.Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send mess
14、ages to someone far away. To make signals, an Indian might use a pony. He might use a blanket. Or he might use smoke , a mirror or fire arrows.To signal that he had seen many animals , an Indian rode his pony in a large circle. Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide.
15、 This meant that there was danger. The blanket signal was visible from far away. An Indian held the corners of a blanket in his hands. Then he began to swing the blanket from side to side in front of him. An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.He could also send many signals wi
16、th a mirror. He usually used the mirror to warn someone of danger. Or he attempted to get the attention of a person far away. But they also used it to send messages in code. Of course, mirror could be used only when the sun was shining. At night Indians used fire arrow for signaling. An Indian also
17、sent signals with smoke. He made a small fire of dry wood. Then he put grass or green branches on it. He held a blanket over the fire for a minute. When he removed this blanket from the fire, there was a cloud of smoke. The number of clouds of smoke told this message in code.Now you can see that Ind

Write T for true and F for false.“You dont listen!“ says your girl friend.When you answer, “But I do. I can repeat every word you just said!“ It doesnt seem to be good enough.“No,“ She say
20、s, “You dont listen.“Whats wrong? Scientists tell us that words give us only 35 percent of what we mean. The rest? Body language. In other words, you may hear the words but not get the “tune“.Body language. You know about the hitchhikers thumb(向过路汽车要求免费搭车). That sign is clear. But whats the sign for
21、 a pretty girl? An Arab strokes his beard. An Italian pulls on one of his ear lobes(耳垂). An Englishman looks slowly away.Body language, if you look for it, is all over the place. When two people like each other, they show it. Boys and girls hold their bodies straighter. Muscle-tone is higher. Eyes a
22、re bright. Skin may be pinker. And each preens. The girl works with her hair. The boy combs his hair, straightens his tie or his shirt and pulls up his socks.If the couple is going with each other, they look at each other a lot.They tilt their heads. A girl may cross her legs, place a hand on her hi
23、p, or lift her chest. And she may show her palm. Most of the time girls never show their palms. But when she is interested in a man, she shows her palm all over the place. She may even cover a cough from a cigarette by holding her palm out. The boy and girl are telling each other, and the world, the
24、y are “that way“ about each other.Words are only part of talking. The rest are in body movements, dress, and, of course, the tone of the voice. Recently I went to a meeting of some teachers. Two teachers were arguing. What the lady was saying was polite enough. Her voice, though, gave her away. It k
25、ept getting higher and more angry by the minute. She was saying in words that there were two sides to the matter. But what she was really saying with her tone of voice was “I hate you!“ When the man told her that she was showing anger by her voice and her whole body she did not agree. She was not aw
