People communicate in many different ways. The most common way is by talking with others. Except for talking, we can also use body languages. When we use body languages, we need to use body to show what we mean. Sign language is a kind of body language. Let’s see more about it.

Sign language is popular among dumb people who are unable to speak or don’t want to speak. If you want to communicate with a foreigner ,but you can’t speak his language and he can’t speak Chinese, what can you do ? Maybe you can communicate by making signs. Now let’s learn some signs Indians often use.

★When they are hungry, they move their right hands back and forth in front of their stomachs.

★When they mean “ Let’s eat”, they put their right hands and move them up and down in front of their mouths.

★When they have had enough, they part their thumbs and first fingers, and move their hands from their chests to chins.

★If they have a stomach ache, they put both hands on their stomachs, and move them back and forth.

科目:初中英語 來源:2016屆江蘇揚州江都區(qū)國際學校九年級上學期第二次月考英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

What's the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions (提到 ) hard-work,others suggest knowledge, love and luck.

If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按-r母表IYJ順序)and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, I for a 2 for b, 3 for c..., you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+1 8+4+23+15+1 8+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge:11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96.while love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck:12+2l+3+11=47, a small mark.None of these words can give one a full mark.What about money or prayer(祈禱)?They can't, either.

Then what else? Don't be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things,or your attitude(態(tài)度).Yes,attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+2l+4+5=100, a full mark.

Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one has changed one's attitude.

When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you'll meet more smiling faces towards you.1n the same way. if you take a positive(積極地)attitude towards failure(失敗), you'll find it's also rewarding though it has caused you losses.

1.What is the mark of the word “money”?

A.54 B. 72 C.96 D.100

2.In the writer's opinion, what is the most important thing in a person's life?

A. Hard work. B. Knowledge. C. Money. D. Attitude.

3.According to the passage, if you meet with problems,the best way out is to_______.

A. ask for help from others

B. say your prayers to God

C.change your attitude

D.try maths—solving methods(方法)

4.From the passage we can learn that_______.

A. different attitudes come from different courses of life

B. mathematics can solve every problem easily in our daily life

C. failure sometimes can bring you good if you take a positive attitude

D. none of the English words except "attitude" equals to 100 or more
