on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer
Sheet
Passage 1
Nonverbal communication has to do with gestures, movements
and closeness of two people when they are talking. The scientists
say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which
words do not carry.
For example, the body distance between two speakers can be
important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are
unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American
when speaking, while the South American often considers the North
American to be “cold” or “distant” because he keeps a greater
distance between himself and the person he is speaking to . The “eye
contact” provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal
communication. Scientists have observed that there is more eye
contact between people who like each other than there is between
people who don’t like each other. The length of time that the person
whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of
interest he has in the things you are talking about.
On the other hand, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable.
The eyes apparently play a great part in nonverbal communication.
Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen
in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of
friendliness. Someone who is always smiling, and with little
apparent reasons, often makes us uneasy.
1. According to the passage, nonverbal communication _____.
A. is a method often used by people who cannot speak
B. can tell something that words cannot
C. can be used to talk with people who cannot bear
D. is less used than words
2. The South American _____.
A. tends to keep a distance between himself and the person he is
speaking to
B. usually stands close to the person he is talking to
C. is often unfriendly when spoken to
D. is often cold and distant when speaking
3. Which of the following is NOT true? _____
A. Less eye contact suggests distance in relation.
B. The longer one looks at you, the more interest he has in you.
C. There is more eye contact between people who like each other.
D. Shorter eye contact shows more interest in what one is talking
about.
4. Too long a gaze _____.
A. may upset people being looked at B. shows one’s
great confidence
C. indicates one’s interest in the talk D. tells
you how friendly one is
5. Constant smiling without apparent reason _____.
A. is a sign of one’s friendliness B. is a sign
of one’s unfriendliness
C. makes people feel happy D. makes
people feel uncomfortable
Passage 2
Television has opened windows in everybody’s life. Young
men will never again go to war as they did in 1914. Millions of
people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has
been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping
those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown
on the screen.
Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can
now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an
election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to
make their opinion count.
Unfortunately, television’s influence has been extremely harmful to
the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV
shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell
products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the
violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that
the “television generations” are more violent than their parents and
grandparents.
Also, the young are less patient. Used to TV shows, where
everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience
to read an article without pictures; to read a book that requires
thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn’t do funny things like
the people on children’s programs. And they expect all problems to
be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That’s the
time it takes on the screen.
6. In the past, many young people ______.
A. knew the effects of war B. went in
for politics
C. liked to save the wounded in wars D. were
willing to be soldiers
7. Now with TV people can _____.
A. discuss politics at an information center
B. show more interest in politics
C. make their own decisions on political affairs
D. express their opinions freely
8. The author thinks that TV advertisements _____.
A. are not reliable B. are
useless to people
C. are a good guide to adults D. are very
harmful to the young
9. Which is NOT true according to the passage? _____.
A. People have become used to crimes now.
B. With a TV set some problems can be solved quickly.
C. People now like to read books with pictures.
D. The adults are less violent than the young “television
generation”.
10. From the passage, we can conclude that _____.
A. children should keep away from TV B. TV programs
should be improved
C. children’s books should have pictures D. TV has a deep
influence on the young
