Although we may not realize it when we talk with others, we make our meanings understood not only by words; we send messages to the people around us but also by body movements. We call it “body language” which is a kind of action communication. A smile and handshake show welcome. Waving hands stands for “Good bye”. Nodding head means “agreement”, while shaking it means “disagreement”. Putting up a hand means “May I ask a question?” putting a finger over the mouth means “Be quiet”. These gestures are accepted between Chinese and Americans as having the same meanings. Ⅳ. Listen to the passage and fill in the table. Taking care of our environment is very important. Have you ever thrown any litter onto the ground? Have you ever drawn pictures on public walls? Have you ever spat in a public place? Have you ever cut down trees?

You may ask yourself, “Have I ever picked up some rubbish and thrown it into a dustbin? Have I ever collected waste paper or bottles for recycling? Have I ever planted any trees or flowers in or near my home?” If your answers are “Yes” it means that you have already done something useful to improve the environment. 参考答案: 一.1-5 BAD E 6-10 ACAAC 11-15 FFFTT 16. litter 17.
