21、Do you use hand gestures(姿势) when you talk? Do you open your mouth and eyes wide when you are surprised? These are all examples of body language. How important can it be? Follow Teens and have a look.
Body language does not use words. It uses the movement or position of your body to show certain meanings. According to American scientist Edward T. Hall, in a conversation between two people, 65 percent of communication is body language. In some cases you even express yourself without words. For example, if your friend asks you to join him in a picnic, you will give him an “OK” gesture to say “Yes, sounds great!” Sometimes, your words say one thing, but your body language says another. You may do things unconsciously(无意识地) like touching your face while telling a lie.
In different cultures, the same body language means different things. In the US, making eye contact(眼神交流) with someone means you are interested in what the person is saying. While in some Asian countries, it is rude to look into a person’s eyes during a conversation.
Sometimes, different body language expresses the same meaning. Take “hello” for example. French people kiss cheeks (脸颊) to say hello. Japanese people bow (鞠躬). Maoris in New Zealand, however, touch noses in greeting. What are you trying to say? Body language is important to teenagers. Understanding this language helps you to communicate better with others.
【1】What does body language use to show meanings?
A.Words.

【2】What does an American mean if he makes eye contact with someone?

B.He is interested in the person.

【3】How many ways of saying “hello” are mentioned in this passage?
A.Two.
B.Three.
C.Four.
D.Five.
【4】Whom might this passage be written for?

22、When you grow up, you have more responsibilities (责任) and also more freedom to spend time with other people. Although you may feel ready to make your own decisions about where and when to go, your parents will put limits on you. So you are not free to go anywhere you like and you may find you are arguing with your parents more than you used to. The reason why your parents do this is that they care about you and want to protect you from danger.
Here are some tips for how to avoid (避免) and solve arguments with your parents:
● Discuss the rules ahead of time and not at the last minute. This way you can tell what they will say before you make plans. Your parents can also explain to you why each rule is in place. Ask them to give you the chance to explain how the rules make you feel and suggest what you think are right rules. Your parents may be willing to listen to your ideas and use them when making rules that you both agree on.
● Try to keep calm when your parents say no to something. You will show your parents that you have grown up by talking instead of shouting.
● Spend time with your family. Some teens argue with their parents over the amount of time they spend with their friends. Chat with each other and make some special family time so that you can all enjoy the time you spend at home. And you can also enjoy together such as going on a hike, taking a bike ride, or going to the beach.
【1】What does the underlined word “limits” mean?
A.限制
B.规则
C.条件
【2】Your parents don’t allow you to go anywhere you like because they ________.

23、John and Sam were friends. They opened a small shop in a small village. One day, they sold out of all their wine (酒), so they drove to the city to buy some.

Most people of the world do not bow(鞠躬) to each other, but Japanese people do. They often bow when they meet. Men bow to men and to women. Men and women may also bow to each other, but usually only if they do not know each other. The younger, or more junior person bows more deeply than the older, or more senior person. The Japanese also bow to say “thank you” for something, or to apologize for something.
Schoolchildren do not bow to each other. Schoolgirls say goodbye to each other by waving their hands and saying “bye bye”. Schoolboys may copy Westerners and pat each other on the back or make “high fives” with their hands.
Many types of hand gestures(手势) have special meanings. You may see Japanese people put their thumb and index finger together to form a circle. This circle represents(代表) a coin and this gesture is the sign for money. If the Japanese want to indicate(表明) “me” without using words, they point to themselves by putting a finger to their noses, but Westerners would point to their chests. All young Japanese children learn to make a “V” sign with their middle and index fingers when someone takes their photograph. In Japan, this sign means “peace”, but in England this sign means “victory”. To say “No”, “I don’t know” or “I don’t understand”, Japanese people wave their hands in front of their faces, so it may be difficult to understand exactly what someone means.
Nodding of the head may also be confusing. When Japanese people nod their heads, it does not mean they agree with what you are saying. It means that they understand what you are saying. You must also be careful not to misunderstand a smile. When the Japanese smile they may not be happy, in fact they may be embarrassed(尴尬的).
As in most countries in the world, Japanese people use a lot of body language. Some of it you will understand and some of it will be new or confusing to you.
【1】Japanese people bow ________.
