It has been justly said that while “ we speak with our vocal organs we【B1】______with our whole bodies. “ All of us communicate with one another【B2】______, as well as with words. Sometimes we know what we’ re doing, as with the use of gestures such as the thumbs-up sign to indicate that we【B3】______. But most of the time we’ re not aware that we’ re doing it. We gesture with eyebrows or a hand, meet someone else’ s eyes and【B4】______. These actions we【B5】______are random and incidental. But researchers【B6】______that there is a system of them almost as consistent and comprehensible as language, and they conclude that there is a whole【B7】______of body language,【B8】______the way we move, the gestures we employ, the posture we adopt, the facial expression we【B9】______, the extent to which we touch and distance we stand【B10】______each other. Body language serves a variety of purposes. Firstly it can replace verbal communication, 【B11】______with the use of gesture. Secondly it can modify verbal communication. Loudness and【B12】______of voice is an example here. Thirdly it regulates social interaction: turn taking is largely governed by non-verbal【B13】______Fourthly it conveys our emotions and attitude. This is【B14】______important for successful cross-cultural communication. Every culture has its own body language, and children absorb its nuances【B15】______with spoken language. The way an Englishman crosses his legs is【B16】______like the way a male American does it. When we communicate with people from other cultures, the body language sometimes help make the communication easy and【B17】______, such as shaking hand is such a 【B18】______gesture that people all over the world know that it is a signal for greeting. But sometimes the body language can cause certain misunderstanding【B19】______people of different cultures often have different forms of behavior for sending the same message or have different【B20】______towards the same body signals.
1． 【B1】 A．address B．reverse C．converse D．confer
正确答案：C
解析：address、converse和confer三词均有“谈，说”之意，但是address
是及物动词，表示“对……发表演说，向个人或团体陈述”，此处不能选；confer是不及物动词，confer with后多接人，表示“与……商谈，协商”；而converse是“谈心，交谈”之意，符合文章的意思。reverse意为“相反”，与句义相差甚远。此句意为：我们用我们的发声器官说话，用我们的整个身体交谈。
2． 【B2】 A．nonverbally B．verbally C．vocally D．univocally
正确答案：A
解析：verbal与vocall词形相似，词义也极易混淆。verbal意为“用语言的，语言的”，而vocal意为“嗓音的，(用嗓子)发声的”。non一是表示“非，不”的前缀，nonverbally意为“不适用语言地”，根据句子意思：我们除用语言外，也用非语言的形式与他人交流，此处应选nonverbally。
3． 【B3】 A．refuse B．approve C．suspect D．alert
正确答案：B
解析：thumbs—up sign意为“跷起大拇指”，根据我们的交际常识，跷起大拇指不会表示拒绝(refuse)，也不会表示怀疑(suspect)和警告(alert)，而应表示赞成、同意(approve)。
4． 【B4】 A．look up B．look down C．look away D．look back
正确答案：C
解析：look up意为“向上看，查阅”，look down意为“向下看，看不起”，look away意为“向别处看，视线移开”，look back意为“回顾，倒退”。此句意为：我们一扬眉，一挥手，和某人目光相遇继而又向别处看去，改变坐姿……所以应选look away。
5． 【B5】 A．resume B．assume C．presume
D．consume
正确答案：B
解析：resume“恢复，重新使用”；assume“假定，设想”；presume“冒昧地做某事”；consume“消耗，消费”。此句意为：这些行为我们以为是随意的、偶然的。故选assume。
6． 【B6】
A．have discovered B．have invented C．pointed out D．have revealed
正确答案：A
解析：人们的一举一动都属于某种体系，应是研究人员发现的，而不是invented；invent是指原来不存在而后来发明的东西，reveal是指揭露、泄露秘密或不为人知的东西，与句义也不符。pointed out“指出”，虽然在意思上和句义相符，但是时态应用不当，此处，强调发现的东西对现在的影响，应用现在完成时。
7． 【B7】 A．level B．extent C．group D．range
正确答案：D
解析：level意为“水平，区域”，如与body language搭配，显然不符合句子的意思；extent“范围，程度”，与文章意思也不相关；group和range都有“组，群，类”的意思，但range偏重于类似物的组合或系列，因此，此处应用range。a whole range of body language意为：一整套形体语言。
8． 【B8】 A．included B．including C．include D．inclusive
正确答案：B 解析：这里缺的是介词，而include是动词，inclusive是形容词，只有including是介词。
9． 【B9】 A．wear B．put on
