But in fact we communicate far more in other ways. Our eyes and facial expressions usually tell the truth even when our words do not.Then there are gestures, often unconscious: raising the eyebrows, rubbing the nose, raising the shoulders, tapping the fingers, nodding and shaking the head. There is also the even more subtle (微妙的)body language of posture: Are you sitting or standing with arms or legs crossed? Is that person standing with hands in pockets, held in front of the body or hidden behind? Even the way we dress and the colors we wear communicate things to others.So, do animals communicate? Not in words, although a parrot might be trained to repeat words and phrases which it doesnt understand. But, as we have learnt, there is more to communicate than words. Take dogs for example. They show their teeth to warn, shake their tails to welcome and stand firm, with hair upright, to fight. These signals are surely the equals of the human body language of facial expressions, gestures and posture.Color can be an important means of communication for animals. Many birds and fishes change color, for example, to attract partners during the mating (交配) season. And mating itself is commonly done after a special dance which both partners take part in. Here, again, there are striking similarities to young men and women who dress up to meet partners at parties, where the music is often too loud for word communication. Communication there takes place through appearance and movement.The most carefully planned dances in the animal kingdom are those that bees use to communicate. With body movements alone they can tell other bees the direction and distance of a newly discovered food.All these examples may suggest instinctive(本能的) rather than intelligent communication. But human body langtlage is largely instinctive, too. And, in many ways, body language says far more than intelligent, word communication ever can.语篇解读：动物之间能交流吗？答案是肯定的，它们有比语言更多的交流方式。它们会通过身体的不同部位来表达喜、怒、哀、乐。21Nodding and shaking the head is a _.A. gestureBfacial expressionC. postureD language答案：A细节理解题。由第二段第一句的内容可知点头和摇头都是身势语的一种，属于gesture的范畴。22Dogs shaking their tails means _.A. warningB welcomingC. fightingD laughing答案：B细节理解题。根据文章第四段第二句中“shake their tails to welcome”可知狗摇尾巴是表示欢迎。23Which of the following is TRUE?A.

We Chinese speak Chinese, and, most of us are learning a foreign language. But there is another kind of language we need to knowthe language of the body.All over the world, people“talk” with their hands, with their heads and with their eyes. When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians meet, they put their hands together. What do American and British people do? Americans are more informal(不拘小节) than the British: They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable. British people are more reserved (拘谨的). They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask your name.When British or American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends，and men kiss women friends (on one cheek only). When a man meets a man, he just smiles, and says，“Hello.” Men do not kiss each other，or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.语篇解读：人们交流除了使用语言外，还通过人身体器官来交流。世界各地不同国家的人交流方式也不尽相同。25Which of the following is RIGHT?A. Different countries have the same body language.B.
