Question

【题目】阅读C篇短文，按要求完成下列各题。C
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. (A)sometimes, that's, understand, correctly, why, don't, each other, people. Pointing to one part of the body can mean differently in different cultures. For example, in the USA 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 USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb 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 are 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”.
(B)Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning throughout the world, such as smiling and crying.
（1）将文中(A)处划线部分的单词连词成句。
（2）In England, if people point to their heads it means they think someone is .
（3）In India, if one nods his head up and down, it means he .
（4）What did the “V” sign mean during World War Ⅱ?
（5）将文中(B)处划线部分的句子译成汉语。

Answer 1

【答案】
（1）That's why people sometimes do not understand each other correctly.
（2）stupid
（3）doesn't agree
（4）It meant “victory”.
（5）尽管肢体语言的意义是不同的,但是有一些表达的意义是遍布全世界都相同的,例如哭和笑。
【解析】本文介绍身体语言在不同的国家有着不同的意思，但是想哭笑这样的身体语言在全世界其意思都是一样的。
⑴连词成句。根据上下文可知本句要表达的意思是：那就是为什么人们有时候不能正确的相互理解。所以答案是：That's why people sometimes do not understand each other correctly.。
⑵词义猜测。根据For example, in the USA 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”可知在美国人们认为某个人很聪明时他们指着他们的头；然而在欧洲，意思是“某人笨或者脑袋有问题”，所以答案是：stupid。
⑶细节理解。根据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可知在中国点头意思是“同意”，摇头是“不同意”，而在印度、希腊和土耳其恰恰相反，所以答案是：doesn't agree。
⑷细节理解。根据第二段中 In the 1960s, the “V” sign meant “peace”. However, during World War Ⅱ, it meant “victory”. 可知V在二战时期的意思是“胜利”，所以答案是：It meant “victory”.。
⑸这是一个让步状语从句，though虽然；meaning意思；expression表达；such as如。所以答案是：尽管肢体语言的意义是不同的，但是有一些表达的意义是遍布全世界都相同的，例如哭和笑。
