32、”,而是“信息”,所以选用 messages。3.D hope 意为“希望”;receive 意为“收到”;discover 意为“发现”;mean 意为“意指,表示的意思”。根据句意判断应选 D项,此处句意为“非言语交际实际上占了我们表达的意思的 50%”。4.C 根据连词 And可知该句继续说明身势语的作用,所以应选 C项,此处句意为“当我们试图进行跨文化交际的时候,身势语尤为重要”。5.C 该句仍然说明身势语的重要性,所以选用 much强调程度,此处句意为“身势语是我们生活中很重要的一部分”。6.A 下文举例说明身势语造成的误解,所以选 A项。7.B 下文讲述了北欧人与拉美人交谈时身体保
33、持的距离,所以选 B项。8.C 根据下文可知北欧人通常不喜欢身体接触,所以选 C项。9.A 此处选用 strangers与前面的 friends对应。10.B 拉美人则是另一种情况,所以选 B项,表示“另一方面”。11.B 下面描述的是北欧人和拉美人交谈的情况,所以选 B项。12.D 由于拉美人习惯身体接触,而北欧人却不习惯,所以交谈中不断躲闪着,看起来就像拉美人在追逐北欧人一样,因此选用 following。13.A 拉美人想要通过身 体接触表示友谊,必然会不断地向对方靠近,所以选用 closer。14.C 拉美人想要靠近,北欧人则想要躲开,所以选 C项,表示“向后倒退”。15.D 北欧人的
34、躲闪必然使拉美人误以为“冷漠”或“不礼貌”,所以选 D项。16.A 根据上文北欧人与拉美人交谈的例子以及下文的 words themselves判断,此处应选用talk。17.A 此处句意为“当对方是来自不同的文化(背景)的时候”,所以选 A项。18.C 文化背景不同,更有可能产生“误解”,所以选 C项。19.D 下文的黄金法则显然是一种“建议”,所以选用 advice。20.B 根据前面的 treat判断此处应用其被动语态形式,所以选 B项,此处句意为“按照你想要被对待的方式对待别人; 己所不欲,勿施于人”。C【语篇导读】这是一篇报道。主要介绍美国首颗高中生研制的卫星升入太空。1.C 根据第
