Each Indian tribe had a different language.Many Indians never learned any language except their own.Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each other?They had two ways to talk without sound.1

Sign language is a way of talking by using signs.Indians used sign language when they met strangers.In this way, they could find out whether the stranger was a friend or an enemy.In the Indian sign language,signs were made with the hands.Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away.To make signals,an Indian might use a pony.2Or he might use smoke,a mirror or fire arrows.

To signal that he had seen many animals,an Indian rode his pony in a large circle.Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide.3

The blanket signal was visible from far away.An Indian held the comers of a blanket in his hands.Then he began to swing the blanket from side to side in front of him.4He could also send many signals with a mirror.He usually used the mirror to warn someone of danger.Or he attempted to get the attention of a person for away.But he also used it to send messages in code.5At night,Indians used fire arrows for signaling.

Now you can see that Indians didn't need to learn each other’s language.They could talk to one another by using signals or sign language.

A.This meant that there was danger.

B.He might use a blanket.

C.Different things mean different to them.

D.One way was by sign language;the other way was signals.

E.An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.

F.But they still can make themselves understood.

G.Of course,mirrors could be used only when the sun was shining.

【题目】阅读下列短文从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

B

John was waiting for the girl whose heart he knew, but whose face he didn’t, the girl with the rose. Thirteen months ago, in a Florida library he took a book off the shell and found himself interested in the notes in the margin (页边).The soft handwriting showed a thoughtful soul and insightful (有洞察力的) mind.

In front of the book, he discovered the name, Miss Hollis Maynell. With time and effort he got her address. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to keep in touch.

During the next year and one month the two grew to know each other through the mail. A romance started. John requested a photograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really cared, it wouldn’t matter what she looked like. Later they agreed on their first meeting—7:00 pm at Grand Central Station in New York.

“You’ll recognize me,” she wrote,” by the red rose I’ll be wearing my coat.” So at 7:00 he was in the station looking for the girl with the red rose.

A girl in a green suit was coming toward him, her figure long and slim and her eyes were blue as flowers. Almost uncontrollably came to her, and just at this moment he saw Hollis Maynell—a woman well past 40.The girl was walking quickly away.

He did not hesitate (犹豫), saying,” I’m John, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me. May I take you to dinner?”

The woman smiled, “I don’t know what this is about, son,” she answered,” but the young lady in the green suit begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out to dinner, I should tell you that she is waiting for you in the restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!”

It’s not difficult to admire Miss Maynell’s wisdom. The true nature of a heart is seen in its response to the unattractive.
