From the passage we know that _.A. all children like to be writersB. people like to read for childrenC. children need to read more and more booksD. children should write for people CWhen we want to tell other people what we think, we can do it with the help of words. We can also do it in many other ways, too. Sometimes we move our heads up and down when we want to say yes, and we shake our heads when we want to say no . Some people cant hear or speak. They talk with the help of gestures(手势).People from other countries often have to do it if they dont know your language.Here is a story. An American was once having his holiday in Italy, but he could not speak Italian. One day he went to a restaurant and sat down at a table. When the waiter came, the American opened his mouth, put his fingers in it and took them out again. In this way he wanted to say “Bring me something to eat”. The waiter soon brought him a cup of tea. The American shook his head and the waiter understood that he didnt want tea. So he took it away and brought him a glass of milk. The American shook his head again. He was very hungry now and looked sad. He was just going to leave the restaurant when another man came in. When this man saw the waiter, he put his hands on his stomach(胃). In a few minutes there was a large plate of bread and meat on the table in front of him.( ) 66.Sometimes people move their heads_ when they want to say “yes”.A. right and left B. fast and slow C. hard and easy D. up and down( ) 67.If people want to say _,they may shake their heads.A. “no” B. “yes” C. “words” D.“OK”( ) 68.If you cant _,you may talk with the help of gestures.A. write and read B. say or sing C. hear and speak D. go or come( ) 69.

If people want the waiter to bring them something _ , theyd better put their hands on their stomach.A. to drink B. to write C. to speak D. to eatD Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because you dont understand the culture behind it.For example, if an American boy asks his mother whats for dinner tomorrow, she may say “Ill play it by ear”, that means she doesnt have plans for dinner and she will decide later.“Play by ear” used to mean playing music using the sheet music, but now people often use it when theyre not talking about music.Therere many idioms in English. If you learn to use them, your English will be more vivid and colorful. English idioms are more common in spoken English. They can be difficult to remember sometimes. Next time when you hear somebody saying to you, “Give me a hand”, you dont necessarily stretch out your hand to him/her, but you do need to be helpful. And when the situation is out of hand, you usually can do very little to manage all that. What about a green hand? Its not about the color of your hand! Youre a green hand when you are very new at your work and dont have much experience. If you and your partner always work together hand in glove, you two definitely work together very well.Can you guess the meanings of some common English idioms to do with parts of your body?( )71.An idiom is _.A. a phrase or a sentence that means exactly what the words sayB. a phrase or a sentence that doesnt mean exactly what every word saysC. so difficult that nobody can understandD. something to do with parts of your body( )72.If a mother says “Ill play it by ear” to talk about the dinner, she means _.A. she will cook dinner while listening to music at the same timeB. she doesnt hear what others are talking about.C. she will play music using the sheet music instead of cooking dinnerD. she doesnt have plans for dinner and will decide later( )73.When one says “Can you give me a hand?”, he means _.A. he needs to hold your hand. B. he works well with youC. he needs your help D. he is a new comer and cant help with the situation( )74.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. People use English idioms more in spoken English than in written English.B. To understand the culture behind an idiom is important in understanding the idiom.C. Idioms make your English more vivid and colorful so they are easy to remember.D. You may not understand an idiom even though you know the meaning of each word.( )75.
