核心素养测评二十一 Module 3 Body Language and Non verbal Communication Ⅰ. 阅读理解 ‎ A　　　　　‎ ‎　　When medical staff are in full scrubs(手术衣), their faces are almost completely covered by their caps and face masks, and we can only see their eyes and eyebrows. In order to solve the problem, doctor in Sydney Australia, called Rob Hackett launched a campaign named “Theatre(手术室) Cap Challenge” to encourage medical staff to write their names and roles on their caps. At first, his colleagues didn’t take it seriously. However, with time going on, it has been adopted around the world with studies from the US and UK reporting how this simple idea can decrease human errors in health care. ‎ ‎　　“I went to a theatre where there were about 20 doctors and nurses in the room, ” Dr. Rob Hackett said. “I struggled to even ask to be passed some gloves because the person I was pointing to thought I was pointing to the person behind him, because I don’t know their names, ” said Rob. As we all know, doctors are a stressful profession. When faced with life and death, they need to save the patient’s life for a second. At the moment, effective communication is important. ‎ ‎　　“The ‘Theatre Cap Challenge’ is in response to the concern that avoidable mistakes and poor communication are contributing to many harmful events for our patients, ” said Rob. “We need to develop systems which reduce mistakes and misunderstanding without causing any harm. Besides, we need to let the patients know we’re humans, ” he added.  ‎ ‎　　On the other hand, from the patients’ viewpoint, caps with names on them can make patients more unworried. When everyone appears the same, it is extremely difficult to distinguish who is who. Knowing the name and position of every staff member around them can make them relaxed. ‎ ‎【文章大意】文章介绍了澳大利亚医生Rob发起了一项运动, 该运动旨在鼓励医务人员在手术帽上写上名字和职位, 以便改善医务人员之间的交流, 减少错误的发生, ‎ 10‎ 同时也使病人更加放松。 ‎ ‎1.

Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language study realized that sign languages are unique—a speech of the hand. They offer a new way to know how the brain generates and understands language, and throw new light on an old scientific controversy(争议): whether language, complete with grammar, is something that we are born with, or whether it is a learned behavior. The present interest in sign language has roots in the pioneering work of one teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington, D. C. , the world’s only liberal arts university for deaf people. ‎ ‎　　When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English, the school let him teach a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something strange: among themselves, students signed differently from his classroom teacher. ‎ ‎　　Stokoe had been taught a sort of gestural code, each movement of the hands representing a word in English. At the time, American Sign Language (ASL) was thought to be no more than a form of pidgin English (混杂英语). But Stokoe believed the “hand talk”his students used looked richer. He wondered: Might deaf people actually have a genuine language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth? It was 1955. Stokoe’s idea was academic heresy (异端邪说). ‎ ‎　　It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books and journals and to producing video materials on ASL and the deaf culture—is having lunch at a cafe near the Gallaudet campus and explaining how he started a revolution. For decades educators fought his idea that sign languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese. They thought language must be based on speech, the modulation (调节) of sound. But sign language is based on the movement of hands, the modulation of space. “What I said, ” Stokoe explains, “is that language is not mouth stuff—it’s brain stuff. ”‎ ‎【文章大意】Stokoe认为sign language是一种天生的语言, 他为sign language做出了很大的贡献。‎ 10‎ ‎5. The study of sign language is thought to be 　　　.  ‎ A. a new way to look at the learning of language B. a challenge to traditional views on the nature of language C. an approach to make the grammatical structure of a language simple D. a try to clear misunderstanding about the use of language ‎【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第一段的They offer a new way. . . or whether it is a learned behavior. 可知, 手语提供了一种新方法, 用以探索大脑如何产生和理解语言, 并为一个长期以来的科学争端——语言(连同语法)究竟是我们与生俱来的, 还是一种我们后天学会的行为——提出了新的解释。故手语是对语言的性质的传统观点的挑战, 所以选B 。‎ ‎6. The present growing interest in sign language was caused by 　　　.  ‎ A. a famous scholar in the study of the human brain B. a leading specialist in the study of liberal arts C. an English teacher in a university for the deaf D. some senior experts in American Sign Language ‎【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第一段的The present interest in sign language has roots in the pioneering work of one teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington, D. C. , the world’s only liberal arts university for deaf people. 以及第二段的When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English可知, 现在对手语的兴趣是由Bill Stokoe, 一位教英语的老师激发的。故选C。‎ ‎7. Most educators were against Stokoe’s idea because they thought 　　　.  ‎ A. sign language was not extensively used even by deaf people B. sign language was too artificial to be widely accepted C. a language should be easy to use and understand D. a language could only lie in the form of speech sounds ‎【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据最后一段的They thought language must be based on speech, the modulation of sound. 可知, 大多数教育者认为语言是建立在说, 也就是声音的调节上。故选D。‎ ‎8. Stokoe’s argument is based on his belief that 　　　.  ‎ A. sign language is as useful as any other language B. sign language comes from natural language 10‎ C. language is a system of meaningful codes D. language is a product of the brain ‎【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据最后一段的“What I said, ” Stokoe explains, “is that language is not mouth stuff—it’s brain stuff. ”可知, Stokoe认为sign language是大脑的产物。故D项正确。D中的a product of the brain是对原文中brain stuff的同义表达。‎ ‎【知识拓展】佳词积累 ‎1. hot button　　　　　热门话题、焦点 ‎2. generate v. 产生 ‎3. pioneer n. 先锋; 开拓者; 先驱v. 开辟; 首倡 ‎4. genuine adj. 真实的, 真正的; 诚恳的 ‎5. mouth stuff 嘴上功夫 Ⅱ. 完形填空 ‎　　 (2020·诸暨模拟)‎ ‎　　Never give up on the good times!
