We are always using body language in our daily life.When we have a conversation with someone,we may be using more body language than words.However,the same body language may mean different things in different countries.That’s why people sometimes do not understand each other correctly.Pointing to one part of the body can mean differently in different cultures.
For example,in the U.S.A.people point to their heads when they think someone is clever.However,in Europe it means“He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head.”
In our Chinese culture,nodding our head up and down means“yes”and shaking our head from side to side means“no”.However,in parts of India,Greece and Turkey,it means just the opposite.
In England or the U.S.A.,when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb(拇指)and the second finger,it means“You’re all right or everything is OK.”However,if we do this in France or Belgium,it means“You’re worth zero.”In Greece or Turkey,we should not make this gesture,or we will be thought to be very rude.
The meaning of gestures can also change over time.In the 1960s,the V sign meant“peace”.However,during World War Ⅱ,it meant“victory”.In Greece,it is a very insulting (污辱性)sign.
Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning all over the world, such as smiling and crying.

Gordon Williams’s hobby may seem strange to people when they meet it for the first time. But it is a traditional craft(手藝).He builds model ships inside old bottles.
Gordon has always loved ships, especially sailing ships from the old days. His interest in this hobby began many years ago when he visited a museum in Ottawa, Canada, where there was a display of model ships in bottles. Gordon thought the display was wonderful. But he wondered how the craftsman got the ship through the thin neck of the bottle. Gordon decided to find it out.
He found an old master craftsman who was willing to teach him the necessary skills. First, Gordon takes an old bottle. Then he puts in a layer of putty(一層油灰),carefully shaped and painted it look like the sea. Next he builds the ship. To get the ship through the neck of the bottle, Gordon holds down the masts(桅桿).Once the ship is inside the bottle, he takes a long, thin tool to raise the masts.
Gordon has completed well over one hundred models. His wish is to build bigger model ships, such as aircraft carriers. This will be more challenging, as he will have to build the ship actually inside the bottle. His hobby certainly needs time, patience and a steady hand.

科目:初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2011-2012學(xué)年江蘇省無(wú)錫市實(shí)驗(yàn)學(xué)校初三適應(yīng)性練習(xí)英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

When asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, clothes and cars.

A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should prove it. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the more probably you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want an end to the relationship.

The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended. First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open. Second, apologize when you’re wrong ― even if you’ve been wronged. Over the course of friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships changes as our needs and lifestyles change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the nature ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships. My suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and nurture(培養(yǎng)).

1.The “wronged person” underlined in the text refers to a person _______.

A.who has been mistaken for another

B.who has been blamed unfairly

C.who has treated friends badly

D.who has admitted his mistakes

2.According to the text a friendship can last long only if________.

A.we treat our disagreements wisely

B.we know our friends mistakes

C.we have much in common

D.we have known one another for long

3.What should we do if we follow the author’s second suggestion?

A.Stick to our own points of view.

B.Avoid making mistakes.

C.Make an apology first.

D.change our lifestyles.

The centerpiece of curling(冰壺)is the curling stone. Kays of Scotland has been making curling stones since 1851, when William Kay and his sons Andrew and Thomas set up a workshop in Mauchline, Ayrshire, in southwest Scotland. Kays is still owned by the relatives of the founder, and today it is the only curling stone maker left in Scotland.

Used in a highly competitive sport, the curling stones are made to exact standards. First, stones are sliced and then into round “cheeses”. Finally, the cheeses are shaped and polished into curling stones in a series of steps.

Each stone must weigh 44 pounds. Each must have a maximum diameter (直徑) of 36 inches. Polishing is done by hand on a wheel using water, diamond-talcum power, and felt. Finishing the stone’s “running edge” is done entirely by hand with a special kind of paper and a digital measure and magnifying glass (放大鏡). Lastly, a handle(把手) is fitted into holes on the top of the stone. Stones are computer-matched into pairs. Sixteen stones----8 pairs----are needed for a game, and since curling game field usually have 6 lanes, each game field needs 96 matched stones!

Kays is a small company, employing less than ten skilled workers. Master craftsman and co-owner James Wyllie is skilled at all phases of curling stone making and is also an enthusiastic curler, as well as active member of Mauchline’s Burns Club, which meets regularly to honor well-known Mauchline residents.

【小題1 】What is true about Kays?

A. It is a family business.

B. It’s a brand(牌子) of curling stones.

  C. It’s a place in Scotland.

D. It’s the name of a curling stone dealer(業(yè)者).

【小題 2】How many curling stones are needed for two games happening at the same time?

  A. 8          B. 16           C. 32           D. 96

【小題 3】What does the underlined word “sliced” mean in Chinese in the second paragraph?

A. 切割    B. 鑲嵌         C. 移開        D. 固定

【小題 4】Which of the following statements is NOT RIGHT according to the passage?

A. Kays of Scotland has been curling stone maker for more than 150 years.

B. The weight of each curling stone must be 44 pounds.

C. We use a special machine to polish the curling stone.

D. The workers in Kays are all experienced.

【小題 5】What’s the passage mainly about?

A. The history of curling.

B. How to make a curling stone.

C. The rules of curling.

D. How to become a curling stone maker.
