Body language is a term used to describe the method of communication using body movements or gestures instead of，or in addition to，sounds，verbal (口头的) language or other communication.Body language includes the most subtle (微妙的) movements that many people are not aware of，including winking (眨眼) and slight movement of the eyebrows and other facial expressions.‎ Body language is one of the easiest ways for you to tell what's really going on in conversation with another person.The body language that you observe from other people will tell you whether or not those people are being straight up with you or whether there is more to the story that's not being said.Watch，look，observe.Sometimes you can tell more by a person's body language than the words they speak.‎ ‎24．The underlined word “constitute” in Paragraph 2 probably means ．‎ A．make up　　　B．take up C．turn up D．put up ‎25．What's the third paragraph mainly about?‎ A．What body language is.‎ B．When people use body language.‎ C．Body language is very useful.‎ D．Body language is very important.‎ ‎26．The following are all body language EXCEPT ．‎ A．winking your eyes B．making eye contact C．the moment of the eyebrows D．the communication in a low voice ‎27．We are advised to observe the body language from other people to ．‎ A．remember everything they say B．understand the hidden meaning C．find lies from them D．show respect for them C The Yangtze River，the biggest river in China，starts with the Tuotuo River at the Roof of the World，QinghaiTibet Plateau，takes in countless rivers，and flows eastward across the inner part of China.With a total length of more than 6，300 kilometers，it marches toward the East China Sea，singing the songs of the four seasons with its waves.The Yangtze River，only next to the Amazon and the Nile，is a cradle that breeds the ancient civilization(文明) of the Chinese nation.‎ The Three Gorges have showed the magic workings of nature with their beautiful mountains and waters.The peaks and rocks on the two sides are telling us the history of the region in the past billion years.Every year，many visitors around the world 第9页，共10页 自我检测 ‎ are attracted by the charming thousandyearlong history of the region，the great ancient relics of human civilization，and the mysterious folk tales.‎ Sandwiched between the mountains，the Three Gorges run across Fengjie and Wushan Mountain in Sichuan Province and Badong，Zigui and Yichang in Hubei Province，extending 193 kilometers long to include Qutang Gorge，Wu Gorge and Xiling Gorge.The City of White Emperor in Fengjie is an important passage of the west part of the Three Gorges. Nanjinguan in Yichang is an important gateway of the east part.Along the banks of the Yangtze River，the high peaks，overhanging rock towers，rise into the clouds；dangerous cliffs seem to reach the sky；waterfalls are spraying and sparkling，clouds and thin fogs are curling；rapids and torrents are boiling.On the whole，Xiling Gorge is dangerous for its shallow shores and rapid currents.However，Yichang is regarded by most people as the best start point to tour the Three Gorges.‎ 28. The Yangtze River is important to Chinese people, mainly because ．‎ A．it extends its way from the west to the east of China B．the ancient Chinese civilization began here C．the scenery on both sides is very beautiful D．the Three Gorges are located on it ‎29．We can see the Three Gorges ．‎ A．on QinghaiTibet Plateau B．in Hubei Province C．in Sichuan Province D．both B and C ‎30．According to the

D．Zigui D Windbreaks are barriers (屏障) formed by trees and other plants.Farmers plant these barriers around their fields，which help prevent the loss of soil and stop the wind from blowing soil away.They also keep the wind from damaging or destroying crops.Besides，extra trees and plants can be cut down and used or sold for wood.‎ Windbreaks can be highly valuable for protecting grain crops.For example，in parts of West Africa grain harvests were twenty percent higher in fields protected by windbreaks compared to fields without them.‎ But here is something interesting about windbreaks.They seem to work best when they allow some wind to pass through the barriers of trees or plants around a field.If not，then the movement of air close to the ground will lift the soil.Then the soil will be blown away.For this reason，a windbreak works best if it contains only 60 to 80 percent of the trees and plants that would be needed to make a solid line.An 第9页，共10页 自我检测 ‎ easy rule to remember is that windbreaks can protect areas up to 10 times the height of the tallest trees in the windbreak.‎ There should be at least two lines in each windbreak.One line should be large trees.The second line，right next to it，can be shorter trees or other plants with leaves.Locally grown trees and plants are considered the best choices for windbreaks.Trees reduce the damaging effects of wind and rain.Their roots help protect soil from being washed away.And trees can provide animals with shade from the sun.‎ ‎32．The advantages of building a windbreak are as follows EXCEPT ．‎ A．keeping the wind from destroying grain crops B．increasing the production of grain harvests C．providing humans with shade from the sun D．reducing the damaging effects of wind and rain ‎33．The author thinks windbreaks are interesting because ．‎ A．the movement of air lifts the soil B．windbreaks allow some wind to pass through C．large trees are lined with short ones D．windbreaks can stop the wind getting through ‎34．If the trees grow to a height of 30 feet，the areas the windbreak can protect are ．‎ A．100 square feet B．151 square feet C．240 square feet D．300 square feet ‎35．What can be inferred from the text?‎ A．Extra trees and plants can be cut down for wood.‎ B．The environment is going from bad to worse.‎ C．Trees and plants from abroad are the best for windbreaks.‎ D．Windbreaks can contribute to agriculture harvests.‎ 第二节　(共5小题；每小题2分，满分 10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Birth order plays a vital role in deciding the characteristics of a child.And when it comes to the middle child，it certainly plays a huge role.The middle children go through some things only they can understand. 36 ‎ Mostly，middle children have to share a room. 37 They need to share a room with an elder one because they're too young to sleep alone.And just when they think they'll finally have a room of their own，a voice is heard saying，“Dear，please share the room with your younger one，as he's too small to sleep alone.”‎ Middle children tend to share clothes with their siblings(兄弟姐妹)．Their cupboard is full of handmedowns from their older sibling，and they need to wear his clothes. 38 They can always show off their elder sibling's clothes and things at school.Also，they get to pass their own clothes to their younger sibling.‎ ‎39 They're liked by both，because they can relate well to both generations.On one hand they can recall how much fun it was watching Garfield and ‎ 第9页，共10页 自我检测 Friends，and on the other hand they can talk about the latest video game released in the market.‎ Siblings' talking is one interesting thing about a middle child.They are not as boring as they appear. 40 Also，thanks to the divided attention at home，middle children are independent and need not rely on anyone.‎ A．Instead，they are very artistic and creative.‎ B．But this comes with its own advantage too.‎ C．Here are some things a middle child can relate to.‎ D．They rarely enjoy the experience of
