二、完形填空。（每小题1分，共10分）

Little children use a lot of silent signals to communicate, but we've got ways to read their body

language.

Like many parents of children, you might find it is hard to__21__ your children's signals. Even though

children can know around 200 words by their second birthday, they are only able to __22__50 of these

words in daily life. This means you have to __23__ your children's body language much of the time to

know how they're __24__ or what they're wanting. While no one expects you to be a mind __25__, you can

pay attention to your children's body language to learn how to __26__ in some cases.

It is difficult to believe that one little arm cross can have more than 67 kinds of meanings. But for

children, it's __27__ to be a signal that they’re feeling uneasy. For example, your children might not be able

to __28__, "I don't want this unfamiliar (不熟悉的) horse near me," but they can __29__ themselves from

it by folding their arms to __30__ a protective barrier (保护屏障)21

Learn more about your children's body language so that you can communicate with them more easily.

( ) 21. A. continue B. imagine C. understand D. produce

( ) 22. A. carry B. take C. make D. use

三、阅读理解。（每小题2分，共30分）

A

How often do you talk with people and notice that their words say one thing while their action says

another? A facial expression, crossed arms or the way they behave can show what is really in their mind.

This is body language, and we must teach our children to understand and use it.

We often teach children to be thoughtful when they speak and write, and we also need to teach them to

be thoughtful in their body language. Giving examples is one of the ways to do that. Help children

understand that people use body language most of the time in their life. Where they're looking when they

speak, how they turn their bodies, how they place their arms and so on can give others important

information.

There will be times that people want and need to use their body language. In school or job situations,

understanding body language can make a difference. And using body language in other situations is also

helpful to personal safety and sometimes stops misunderstandings(误会)．

A. it's important to teach children body language B. children often use body language

C. a facial expression is good for children D. crossed arms are not good for children

A. Talking quietly. B. Looking directly. C. Speaking loudly. D. Thinking deeply.

A hero should be kind, nice and willing to help anyone. That is what my hero Dr Gloria is like. She

helps save lives by treating people and heading the Children's Health Project of Washington D.C.

Dr Gloria did not have a lot as growing up in a poor area of Brooklyn, New York. She suffered a lot

when she was a child. After she grew up, she wanted to help poor children in her city. She turned down

high-paying jobs and chose to work on the south side of Washington D.C. where crime (犯罪) and child

deaths are common. She saw murder and even had a knife pulled on her by a poor man. Sometimes her

work had to be put to an end because of fights. But if you were to ask her if she was scared, she would say

no. She wanted to give medical treatment to poor people. When she was a child, she knew how hard it was

for poor people to go to hospital because they could not afford the expenses. She knew she could make a

difference to poor people's lives. She decided to keep doing so even though it meant her life might be in

danger.

In order to help more poor people, she started the Children's Health Project of Washington D.C. It helps

provide health care for children in the most dangerous parts of the inner city. She was the first doctor to

work on the project. She put in twelve years of hard effort to help the program. When she saw a man get

paid off. She helped a lot of people and was given the 2005 Annual Caring Award.
