1．解析：选F 根据文章的大意和本段首句中的关键信息词“At what age”可知，回答的问题涉及孩子的年龄，故选项F符合语境。
2．解析：选B 根据下一段中的两个if条件句，“如果你孩子不常离开你们……”和“如果你孩子很独立或常参加课外活动……”来确定该不该买手机，由此可推断出该段的标题为B“How can you determine whether or not to buy a cellphone for your child？”。
3．解析：选D 由上一句提出的“the cost of having a cellphone”和后一句分析的几种选择的方式可知，此空填入D项合适。此外，“Also be sure”与“Make sure”相呼应。
4．解析：选G 由前一句中的关键信息“discuss what it can be used for, rules ... and consequences if he fails to follow them”即可推断出，G“For example, is the phone only to be used to call family, or can it be used socially？”符合语境。G项举

Ⅱ.完形填空
Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all！It speaks 1 than words. According to specialists, our bodies send out more 2 than we realize. In fact, non-verbal (非言语) communication takes up about 50% of what we really 3 ．And body language is particularly 4 when we attempt to communicate across cultures.Indeed, what is called body language is so 5 a part of us that it's actually often unnoticed.And misunderstandings occur as a result of it. 6 ， different societies treat the 7 between people differently. Northern Europeans usually do not like having 8 contact (接触) even with friends, and certainly not with 9 . People from Latin American countries， 10 ， touch each other quite a lot. Therefore, it's possible that in 11 ， it may look like a Latino is 12 a Norwegian all over the room. The Latino, trying to express friendship, will keep moving 13 . The Norwegian, very probably seeing this as pushiness, will keep 14 —which the Latino will in return regard as 15 ．
Clearly, a great deal is going on when people 16 ．And only a part of it is in the words themselves. And when parties are from 17 cultures, there's a strong possibility of 18 . But whatever the situation is, the best 19 is to obey the Golden Rule:treat others as you would like to be 20 . 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了肢体语言的作用，以及在不同文化里肢体语言的不同含义。通过学习本文我们可以了解文化的趣味性。
1．A.straighter C．harder
B．louder D．further
解析：选B 由首句“肢体语言是所有语言中沉默、秘密而又最有威力的语言！”可知，本句应表示“肢体语言比语言更有说服力”，所以本题选择louder。
2．A.sounds C．feelings
B．invitations D．messages
解析：选D 我们的肢体发出多于我们可以意识到的信息。身体发出的是message“信息”。sound泛指“自然界的一切声音”；invitation“邀请”；feeling“感情，感受”，均不符合句意。
3．A.hope C．discover
B．receive D．mean
解析：选D 事实上，非言语交际占据了我们真正意思的大约50%。mean“意思是，本意是”。
4．A.immediate C．important
B．misleading D．difficult
解析：选C 根据下文论述可知，当涉及跨文化交流时，肢体语言尤为重要，故选important“重要的”。immediate“立刻的”，表示动作的直接性和迅速性；misleading“误导的”；difficult“困难的”。
5．A.well C．much
B．far D．long
解析：选C 肢体语言几乎已经成为我们的组成部分，以致常常被忽视。此处实际上是对“so much a(n)＋名词”的用法的考查。四个选项中有此用法的只有much。
6．A.For example C．However
B．Thus D．In short
解析：选A 下文是举例，故选For example“例如”。thus“因此”；however“然而”；in short“简而言之”。
7．A.trade C．connections
B．distance D．greetings
解析：选B 不同的社会对于人们之间的距离有不同的认识。下文的北欧人和拉丁美洲人等的例子都与distance“距离”有关。
8．A.eye C．bodily
B．verbal D．telephone
解析：选C 北欧人通常不喜欢肢体的接触，故选bodily“身体的”，第10空后面的“touch each other”是提示。
9．A.strangers C．neighbours
B．relatives D．enemies
解析：选A 北欧人不喜欢和朋友有肢体上的接触，更不用说陌生人了。enemies虽然与friends相对，但此处是说不同国度文化的差异，并不是敌我的分歧。
10．A.in other words C．in a similar way
B．on the other hand D．by all means
解析：选B 由上文可知，此处表示语意的转折，故选on the other hand“另一方面”，本句讲到拉丁美洲人喜欢肢体接触。in other words“换句话说”；in a similar way“用相似的方法”； by all means“当然可以”。
11．A.trouble C．silence
B．conversation D．experiment
解析：选B trouble“麻烦”；conversation“谈话，交谈”；silence“寂静，沉默”；experiment“实验”。in conversation“在交谈中，在会话中”。
12．A.disturbing C．guiding
B．helping D．following
解析：选D 在交谈中，北欧人不喜欢肢体接触，拉丁美洲人喜欢肢体接触，所以我们看到的很可能是一个拉丁美洲人跟随一个挪威人移动，故选following“跟随”。
