(文化).Indeed, what is called body language is so __40__ a part of us that it's actually often unnoticed.And misunderstandings occur as a result of it.__41__, different societies treat the __42__

解析:选A。由上文内容可知,拉丁美洲人会不断地靠近,以示亲近。 ‎ ‎49.A.stepping forward B.going on C.backing away D.coming out 解析:选C。北欧人不喜欢身体接触,由此可知挪威人很可能认为这种亲近行为很粗鲁并不断“后退”。 ‎ ‎50.A.weakness B.carelessness C.friendliness D.coldness 解析:选D。拉丁美洲人不断靠近对方以示亲近,可对方不断后退躲避,由此可知,拉丁美洲人会将这种行为看做“冷淡”。 ‎ ‎51.A.talk B.travel C.laugh D.think 解析:选A。上文叙述的是身势语,身势语属于“交谈”的范畴。显然,当人们交谈的时候,很多东西在进行。只有很少一部分是用语言来完成的。 ‎ ‎52.A.different B.European C.Latino D.rich 解析:选A。此处与第一段中的“And body language is particularly__39__ when we attempt to communicate across cultures.”相呼应,表示拥有“不同”文化背景的人。‎ ‎53.A.curiosity B.excitement C.misunderstanding D.nervousness 解析:选C。根据上文提到的北欧人和拉美人相处的例子可知,来自不同文化的人聚集在一起时很可能产生“误解”。另外,上文中的“And misunderstandings occur as a result of it.”也是线索提示。 ‎ ‎54.A.chance B.time C.result D.advice 解析:选D。不管情况如何,最好的建议是遵从这条黄金法则。 ‎ ‎55.A.noticed B.treated C.respected D.pleased 解析:选B。你希望别人怎样待你,你就应该怎样待别人。 ‎ ‎【五】‎ People in communities have slowly been pushed apart through the years, mostly because people simply aren't taking the time to say a

D.rich 解析:选A。此处与第一段中的“And body language is particularly__39__ when we attempt to communicate across cultures.”相呼应,表示拥有“不同”文化背景的人。‎ ‎53.A.curiosity B.excitement C.misunderstanding D.nervousness
