It was a cold day in December in New York City. A little boy about 10 years old was standing in front of a shoe store on Broadway. He was looking through the windows. Barefooted(赤脚的) and shivering（颤抖的）with cold. A lady walked to the boy and said, “ My little boy, what are you looking at?”

（B）

Although we may not realize it, when we talk with others we make ourselves understood not just by words. We send messages to the people around us also by body movements. A smile and handshake(握手) show welcome. Waving one’s hand is to say “Goodbye.” Nodding(点头) the head means agreement, while shaking it means disagreement. In China and some English-speaking countries, these body movements have the same meanings.

But not all body languages mean the same things in different countries. For example, nodding the head in some Asian countries means not “Yes.”, but “No. ”

When we speak a foreign language, it’s important to know the meanings of the body movements in the foreign countries. In Russia, France and some of South American countries men kiss(吻) each other when they meet. Men don’t kiss each other in China or English-speaking countries. In England, older people usually shake hands when they meet someone for the first time, however, young people don’t shake hands. In France, people shake hands in the office every morning. French people kiss each other more often than English people when they meet or leave. 根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。（5分）

( ) 2. In China and some English-speaking countries, all the body movements have the same meanings.

( ) 3. From this passage, we can know that men in Brazil usually kiss each other when they meet.

( ) 4. In France, men just kiss each other when they meet.

Wally worked in a shop that sold clocks. One day his next door neighbor, Harry, came into his shop. Harry was very stingy(吝啬). Wally said to him,“When are you going to buy a clock?”

“Never,”Harry said.“I don’t need a clock.”

“Everyone needs a clock,”Wally said.“How do you know when it’s time to get up?”

“The man who lives on the other side of me turns on his radio at seven o’clock for the news,”Harry said.

“Ok. But how do you know when to go to work?”Wally wanted to know.

“By the time I get out of bed, wash and shave(剃胡须) it’s half past seven,”Harry said. “By the time I’ve eaten my breakfast, it’s eight o’clock, time to leave for the office. By the time I get to the bus stop, it’s ten past eight. The bus arrives in a few minutes and by the time it gets to my stop, the time is half past eight. That’s the time I start work..”

“OK. But how do you know when it’s time to go home?”Wally said, getting angry.

“The factory bell rings,”Harry told him.

“How do you know when it’s time to go to bed?”

“The television programs come to and end.”

By now Wally was really angry. “OK,”he shouted.“Now tell me what would happen if you woke up in the middle of the night and wanted to know the time?”

“That’s easy,”Harry said. I’ve got a hammer（锤子）. I’d use it to knock on your wall. You’d shout at me,“What are you doing knocking on my wall at three o’clock in the morning?”
