1.Although we may not realize it, when we talk with others we make ourselves understood not just by words.當我們和別人談話時,我們并不僅僅靠語言來表達自己的意思 ,盡管我們可能意識不到這一點。
①although 盡管,雖然,引導讓步狀語從句。其中的it指代下文的整個意思。
例 Although they are poor, they are ready to help others.他們雖然窮,但卻樂于助人。
②when we talk with others 是時間狀語從句,主句是we make ourselves understood no t just by words.句中just作“僅僅,只是”解。not just by words=not only by words. 下面接著一句中有also by our expressions and body movements.這兩句合起來相當于:We communicate with people around us not just/only by words, but also by expressions and body movements.我們不僅用言語,而且還用表情和身體的動作來同周圍的人進行交 流。
2.In Arab countries, you eat using the fingers of your right hand; the left hand is not used at all.在阿拉伯國家,吃飯用右手的手指;根本不用左手。
①using the fingers of your right hand是-ing短語,在句中用作方式狀語,修飾謂語動詞eat。
例 Little children often count the numbers using their fingers.小孩子常用他們 的手指來數(shù)數(shù)字。
②at all 根本,完全,常用于否定句中,構(gòu)成not…at all結(jié)構(gòu),意為“根本不,全然不”。
3.In parts of Asia you must not sit with your feet pointing at another person.在亞洲的某些地區(qū),你不可能坐著把腳蹺起對著別人。
with your feet pointing at 是with復合結(jié)構(gòu),它是由“with+名詞+ing”組成,在句中作狀語,表示伴隨動作。
例 The young man lay on the grass, with his eyes looking at the sky.那個年輕人 躺在草地上,看著天空。
With a boy leading the way, we visited the temple.由一個男孩帶路,我們參觀了寺廟。
4.Using body language in a correct way will help communicate with people and make the stay in a foreign country easy and comfortable.正確地運用身勢語有助于同人們進行交際,并使你在外國逗留時會感到輕松而愉快。
①using body language in a correct way 是動名詞短語,在句中作主語。
②help后接不定式作賓語,這個不定式可以帶to,也可以不帶to。本句中communicate就是不帶to的不定式,在句中作help的賓語。help還可接帶不定式的復合結(jié)構(gòu),即help sb (to) do sth 幫助某人干某事?蓭o也可不帶to。
例 Reading helps (to) enlarge your vocabulary.閱讀有助于擴大詞匯量。
Let me help you to carry the box.我來幫你提箱子吧。
③“make+賓語+賓補”結(jié)構(gòu)中,賓補可以是形容詞、名詞、過分去分詞、不帶to的不定式等等。上句中make的賓語是stay;賓語補足語是形容詞easy and comfortable。介詞短語in a foreign country 是定語,修飾the stay。
例 What he had done made his mother angry.他所做的事使他母親很生氣。

典型例題
I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric(怪僻的) farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was t hat someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadn't the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.
It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn't know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died.“She meant more to me than anyone … even m y own wife!”he said. I could see that he had been crying, I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑聞).I was even more shocked when told me he had put her in the barn(廄).“I wouldn't leave her out in the cold!”he s aid.
Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could no t expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground.“She was such a good cow! I wouldn't le t anyone but a doctor touch her!”He said, and burst into tears again.
1.The underlined phrase make out in the first paragraph means ______________.
A. expect B. understand C. see clearly D. hear clearly
2.Before he arrived at the farmer's house, the writer expected to see Milly lying ______________.
A on the ground of a barn B. on the floor of a room
C. in bed in a room D. in bed in a barn
3.What do we know about Milly from the story?
A .She had met with an accident B. She had caused a scandal
C. she was seriously ill D. She was hidden somewhere
4.The farmer wished that the writer might ______________.
A. look into the matter B. bring Milly back to life
C. free him from a scandal D. keep the whole thing a secret
5.The person who told the story is probably a ______________.
A. farmer B. policeman
C. country doctor D. newspaper reporter
解析 1.這是一道詞意辨析題,要求考生根據(jù)上下文所述的內(nèi)容猜測劃線短語的意思。一位怪僻的農(nóng)夫在電話中說了一分鐘的話卻沒能使作者明白他的意圖,只是知道一個叫Milly的出了事故。由此可以猜出make out的意思是understand。故B為正確答案。
2.這是一道推理判斷題,在文中難以找出正確答案。但從故事中提供幾條信息來分析,該題的最佳答案應為C。因為在夜間就寢之時,而且在天氣下雪的情況下農(nóng)夫打電話報告Milly遇險,作者一定以為Milly是農(nóng)夫的親人,因此A、B、D均不能算是正確答案。
3.這是一道細節(jié)題,但迷惑性卻很大。當年考生選D的不占少數(shù),但選項中的somewhere同文章中提到的he had put her in the barn.一句還有一段距離,所以不能為最佳答案。從第一自然段中someone called Milly had had a very bad accident一句來判斷A要比其它選 項更為恰當。故A應為最佳答案。
4.這是一道綜合判斷題,要求考生通過本篇故事的中心思想來推測這位農(nóng)夫的心境。從他對作者所說的那席話可以看出,農(nóng)夫該是多么希望作者救活Milly呀!B應為最佳答案。
5.這是一道推斷題,要求考生推斷本篇故事作者的職業(yè)。從“She was such a good cow!I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!”這兩句話中可以斷定,作者是位醫(yī)生,故C為最佳答案。

【關于“Body Language”的常見問題】
常見問題1: Body Language
問題:
-Can I help you with the heavy box?
-I can manage it. But ___________.
A .thank you very much B. thanks a lot
C. thank you all the same D. many thanks for your kindness
解答:
解題提導:本題考查all the same的用法。all the same 意為“然而,仍然”。
答案為C
常見問題2: Body Language
問題:
Is ___________ necessary to complete the design before the expert com es?
A. that B. this
C. is D. he
解答:
解題提導:本題考查不定式的用法。to complete the design 是不定式作主語。當不定式作主語后置時,要用it作形式主語放在句首。
答案為C
常見問題3: Body Language
問題:
-Are the new rules working?
-Yes,___________ books are stolen.
A. Few B. More
C. Some D. None
解答:
解題提導:本題考查代詞few的用法。根據(jù)答語“Yes”可知“新的規(guī)章制度正在起作用”,所以B、C不合適,D太絕對,可排除。故A正確,譯為“幾乎沒有書被偷”
答案為A.
常見問題4: Body Language
問題:
He is a stranger here ,and has no sense of ______.
A.distance B.position C.time D.direction
解答:
導析:句意是他在這兒很陌生,沒有方向感。distance表示距離,position 表示位置,time表示時間。對于一個陌生人來說,方向可以用感覺去體會,其他幾個詞與感覺無關。答案:D
常見問題5: Body Language
問題:
Tom,_________ on time tomorrow .
A.is sure to come B.will be sure to come
C.be sure to come D.to be sure to come
解答:
導析:有時一個逗號也決不可小看。如果這道題沒有逗號,那就再簡單不過了,A是正確答案。但有了逗號,按句子種類分析,由陳述句變成了祈使句。另外,be sure一般不用于將來時,即使本題沒有逗號,選項B也不成立。答案:C
常見問題6: Body Language
問題:
She_______ to get there on time and caught the first bus .
A.tried B.managed C.liked D.wanted
解答:
導析:A、B、C、D四個選項均可接動詞不定式,但意義各不相同。try to do(努力做)只強調(diào)努力,不知道結(jié)果;manage to do(設法做到了)強調(diào)努力并有成功的結(jié)果。本題中“她趕上了車”說明她的努力成功了。答案:B
常見問題7: Body Language
問題:
Tom kept quiet about the accident ______ lose his job .
A.so not as to B.so as not to
C.so as to not D.not so as to
解答:
導析:本題考查的是不定式在句中作狀語其否定式的正確形式。一般情況下,非謂語動詞的否定式均在非謂語動詞前加not構(gòu)成;so as to do sth.的否定形式應為so as not to do sth。答案:B
常見問題8: Body Language
問題:
--Alice, why didn't you come yesterday?
--____, but I had an unexpected visitor.
A.had B.would C.was going to D.did
解答:
導析:考生如果死記語法知識,局限于傳統(tǒng)思維,就容易在will與is going to兩項的過去時態(tài)上左右徘徊。would表示過去習慣性動作或過去將來,而was going to在該題設置的語境有其特殊的含意,表示過去的打算或意愿未實現(xiàn)。答案:B
常見問題9: Body Language
問題:
The speaker raised his voice but still couldn't make himself _____.
A.hear B.to hear C.hearing D.heard
解答:
導析:本題考查賓語補足語的用法。在動詞make的后面,作賓補的用法較多。但在本題中只要能夠掌握“使別人聽到自己說話的聲音”這個用法,則答案是很明顯的。答案:D
常見問題10: Body Language
問題:
____house have you called at?
A. Who else B.Who's else C.Who else's D.Whose else
解答:
導析:else一般只能放在不定代詞、疑問代詞或疑問副詞之后。當else 與疑問代詞who連用時,它的所有格形式有兩種:who else's和whose else。who else's常作定語,whose else常做表語。答案:C
常見問題11: Body Language
問題:
_____late in the morning, Bob turned off the alarm.
A.To sleep B.Sleeping
C.Sleep D.Having slept
解答:
導析:“sleep late”的含義為“sleep until late hours(睡到很晚的時間),get up late(起床遲,多睡會兒)”,該句句意是:“為了早上多睡會兒,鮑勃關掉了鬧鐘“,所以需選用不定式表示目的。答案:A
常見問題12: Body Language
問題:
I would love _______ to the party last night, but I had to work extra hours to finish a report.
A.to go B.to have gone
C.going D.having gone
解答:
導析:表示“一時性的欲念”,love/like后用動名詞作賓語,因此可排除選項C、D;題中有l(wèi)ast night修飾動詞不定式,表過去動作,故排除選項A。答案:B
常見問題13: Body language
問題:
His French was very poor , so he couldn’t make himself_____ . But we made him _____ us . That is , he was made ______ all this .
A. understand ; understand ; to understand
B. to understand ; to understand ; understand
C. understanding ; understanding ; understand
D. understood ; understand ; to understand

How do people's mood(情緒) affect their health?
Recently some American scientists made an experiment. They drew into test tubes people's breath under different moods, and then put the test tubes in a container filled with ice and water.
When breath turned into liquid, scientists found that when a person is not angry, his breath is transparent(透明的).When he is sad, white sediment(沉淀物) appears. When someone regrets over something, the breath looks cream coloured. And when he is angry, it is purple(紫色).After the liquid with purple sediment was injected( 注射)into a white rat, it died in several minutes.
After further study, scientists found out that if a person remains angry for ten minutes, he will use up much energy as he does after running meters. Anger leads to strong reaction and produces very poisonous secretion(分泌物).Obviously anger does great harm to people's health.
1.White sediment appears when you ______________.
A. are happy B. are angry C. are sad D. regret something
