Gestures are the “silent language” of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the others arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug（拥抱）.Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say, “Pardon me.” or “Excuse me.”Americans like to look at the other person in the eyes when they are talking. If you dont do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite.For Americans, thumbs-up means yes, very good, or well done. Thumbs-down means the opposite. To call a waiter, raise one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement with your hands as if you are singing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger（食指）. Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.Learning a cultures body language is sometimes confusing. If you dont know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.56.

Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager. “I would never have said to my mom, Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?” says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.” Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits(轨道). Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are comfortable and common. And parent-child activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood. No wonder greeting cards today carry the message, “To my mother, my best friend.” But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “Theres still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College, “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.” Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving（进化的） roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say. “My parents were on the before side of that change, but todays parents, the 40-year-old, were on the after side,” explains Mr. Ballmer. “Its not something easily accomplished by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”64. The underlined word gulf in Para. 3 most probably means _.A. interestB. distanceC. differenceD. separation65. Which of the following show that the generation gap is disappearing?A. Parents help their children develop interests in more activities.B. Parents put more trust in their childrens abilities.C. Parents and children talk more about sex and drugs.D. Parents share more interests with their children.66. The change in todays parent-child relationship is _.A. more confusion among parentsB. new equality between parents and childrenC. less respect for parents from childrenD. more strictness and authority on the part of parents67. The purpose of the passage is to _.A. describe the difficulties todays parents have met withB. discuss the development of the parent-child relationshipC. suggest the ways to handle the parent-child relationshipD. compare todays parent-child relationship with that in the pastDAn old man lived alone in Minnesota. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was hard work. His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his situation:Dear son, I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I wont be able to plant my potato garden this year. I hate to miss doing the garden, because your mother always loved planting time. Im just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot (小块土地). If you were here, all my trouble would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me, if you were not in prison. Love, DadShortly, the old man received this telegram:“For Heavens sake, Dad, dont dig up the garden! Thats where I buried the GUNS!”At 4 am the next morning, a dozen FBI agents（联邦调查局） and local police officers showed up and dug up the entire garden without finding any guns.Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what had happened, and asked him what to do next.His sons reply was :“Go ahead and plant your potatoes, Dad.
