Moreover, you can never determine the truthfulness or honesty of people by what they say alone. In fact, words expressed through the mouth often do not reflect what people really think or feel. The more reliable way you can determine their true inner feelings and thoughts is by reading their body language. Everybody communicates using these gestures and if you understand the gestures and their meanings you will be able to read people and know what they are really communicating to you. One researcher even went as far as to say that we speak to hide what’s on our minds. But gestures cannot lie.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you can “see through” the emotions of other people? Let’s say you ask a person whether he can do an important task. He says “OK”. But deep inside, you are questioning yourself, “Is he really willing to do this job? ” or “Does he have the confidence in finishing this task? ”You can’t question him directly because that would be like belittling him. And even if you ask him those questions, his replies will not tell you what he really feels or thinks. So the most useful way is to observe his body language. Expressions like smiling, frowning(皱眉), pouting(撅嘴), facial reddening, sweating, toe curling and sideways glances are visible hints that can help you make a right judgment.

A.words through the mouth are the most common way in communication |
B.body language is the quickest way to help people understand each other |

答案
小题1:D
小题2:B
小题3:A
解析
【文章大意】本文说明人们之间的交际不仅通过语言完成, 而且也通过体态语言进行。
小题1:选D。细节理解题。第一段说语言交流只占所有交流方式的10%或者更少。虽然下文讲的是body language的重要性, 但并没有说明最主要的交流方式是什么, 也没有说body language是最快捷的交流方式或者最强有力的交流工具, 故只有D的说法合理。
小题2:选B。推理判断题。根据下文中的“然而, 体态语言却不会撒谎”及句中hide的意思推断该句意为“口述会掩盖真实意图”, 故B项适合语境。
小题3:选A。词义猜测题。联系上文, 这句话意思是“你不能直接问他, 因为这样看起来就像看不起他”。因此选A。

It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries.For example,it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent.It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.
What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk?One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live,the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability.Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible,including during old age,to lessen the financial burden on the state.
Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society.In some African countries,certainly in Asia,older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge.Yet traditions are fading away daily,which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people.As society changes,attitudes will change.
Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination (歧视) in employment.Lifelong learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country’s development.
Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people.Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.
To achieve equality in such matters will take considerable time and effort.One thing is sure:there is no time to be lost.
小题1:The proportion of older people________.
A.is bigger in developed countries than in developing countries |
B.is oneseventh of the population in developing countries |
C.will increase much faster in China than in France |

A.The diseases and disability of older people. |
B.The longer life and good health of people. |
C.The loss of taxes on older people. |
D.The increasing respect for older people. |
A.be treated differently in different cultures |
B.enjoy a similar lifestyle |
C.be ignored as society changes |
D.be valued by the younger generations |
A.Getting rid of age discrimination in employment. |
B.Ensuring adequate income protection for older people. |
C.Providing free health care for sick older people. |
D.Supplying lifelong learning programs to older people. |
A.governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problem |
B.population ageing is a hard problem,but it needs to be solved urgently |
C.people are too busy to solve the population ageing problem |
D.much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problem |
People do not get the medicine they need. And in some cases the counterfeits cause death. Twenty children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen (醋氨芬). The medications contained ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. The medicine was produced by a local drug company that used a dangerous substitute to save money.
The problem of counterfeit medicines is especially serious in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The WHO estimates that up to thirty percent of medicines on sale in many of those countries are counterfeits. The problem is less widespread among industrialized countries. The WHO says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like the United States, Canada, Japan, and New Zealand.
But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the Internet is counterfeit.
Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. Several companies are developing ways to make counterfeits easier to identify (鉴定). And there are existing methods, like a machine that can quickly identify chemicals in pills to confirm if the pills are real. Other ideas include things like special tracking (跟踪) codes for drug packages. People could send a text message with the code and get a message back, which proves that what they bought is listed in a database. Some drug makers and other companies put three-dimensional images called holograms (全息图) on their products as a security device.
小题1:The underlined word “counterfeits” means _______.
A.qualified products | B.sub-standard medicines |
C.real pills | D.false products |
A.unclean water | B.acetaminophen |
C.unreal drugs | D.online medicines |
A.we had better not buy medicines online |
B.more and more people will buy products online |
C.medicine companies don’t pay much attention to counterfeit drugs |
D.it is very cheap and convenient to buy medicines online |
A.It shows the danger of counterfeit drugs |
B.Special tracking codes for drug packages are used to identify counterfeits. |
C.Some measures are being taken to fight counterfeit drugs |
D.It reveals the reasons why counterfeit drugs are widespread. |
A.France. | B.America |
C.New Zealand | D.India |
Drayton believes that anyone can become an agent for change. The important thing is to simply give yourself permission. If you see a problem that you care about, you can help solve it. The young in particular are willing to accept this concept because at heart every child wants to grow into a happy, healthy, contributing adult. In fact It is many young people"s ambition to set up programmes or businesses that improve social conditions. An excellent example is an Ashoka project started in 1995 in Dhaka, which handled the rubbish problem facing the city ,helped local farmers and provided an income for poor people there .
When Masqsood and Iftekhar began to study the problem of all the uncollected rubbish that lay in Dhaka’s streets,Attracting tats and disease , they discovered that 80% of it was natural waste . So they educated the poor people in the city to compost (把……制成堆粪)this waste . They knew that they would have a market for the end product because local farmers were struggling with chemical ferntilisers (化肥) which were expensive and had reduced the natural minerals in the soil over the years . At first , they were refused ,but once they were able to persuade them that there was money to be made , the project took off. In 2009 sales were $14,000.
Drayton is optimistic that in ten years Ashoka will be making really serious ,practical progress in bringing about social change by changing the way we look at economic development.
小题1:Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?
