Like spoken languages, sign languages are different from each other. But all sign languages are based on sight instead of sounds.Sign languages have several main visual (视觉) parts that work together to express meaning. The first part is the shape made by the hands. Movement is also important. Moving the body or organs (器官) like hands affects the meaning of the shape. The place where the sign is made and the direction the hands face are crucial as well. Other visual clues (线索), such as the expression on a persons face, can sometimes change a signs meaning. For example, a change in a smile can show whether a signer is happy, very happy, or overjoyed. Raising the eyebrows can mark a question.In sign languages, the visual parts are combined (结合) in different ways to create signs.These signs stand for things, actions, feelings, and ideas. ASL has about 4,000 different signs. Like spoken languages, sign languages cannot be translated word-for-word. For English word may be represented by a series of signs in ASL. Or several English words may berepresented by a single ASL sign. Unlike spoken languages, the signs are organized according to sign-language grammar and the most important word or idea is signed first.In ASL, the letter signs are made with one hand. Signers would rarely, if ever, spell out all the words they are signing. That would be as awkward and slow as speakers spelling each spoken word. However, American Sign Language does not have signs for proper names, so signers may use the alphabet to spell these. Also, sign languages often borrow words from other languages. They may spell words using finger spelling which is done with a set of hand shapes that stand for letters of the alphabet.Sign languages develop naturally when people with shared culture and needs want to communicate with each other. Signers are closely linked to each other, perhaps more than to speaking people in their own communities. Signers share points of view, values, needs, and problems,as well as languages.（1）Which group of signs shows how to finger-spell the word hat?A . B . C . D . （2）What can we learn from the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph?A . Different visual parts are combined to create signs.B . Sign languages do not have signs for proper names.C . Signers express ideas following the specific grammar.D . Direct sign combinations wont tell what signers mean.（3）What feature do sign languages and spoken languages have in common?A . They are influenced by different cultures.B . Movements work together to express meaning.C . They are both rich in vocabulary and grammar.D . Facial expressions are of great importance to them.（4）What might be the best title for the passage? A . Speak and ShareB . Signs and LanguagesC . Show and TellD . Sight and Signers 11. （6分）根据短文内容回答下列问题。 Its December. Its snowing and the weather is really cold in the north of China. You can see many children playing with snow. Some of them are making snowmen.

Finally, after months of study, you have some time to yourself. So, why not read a book? Well, some people will say, Why do you like reading books? We have Internet. It offers a lot of more colorful fun. Books are history! But I am sure you can learn a lot from books than Internet.One clear reason is that a well-chosen book can give you a lot of wonderful words, as long as you have a good dictionary, of course.
