Sports help to keep people healthy, happy and help them to live longer.Sports change with the season. People play different games in winter and summer.Games and sports often grow out of peoples work and everyday activities. The Arab use horses or camels in much of their daily life; they use them in their sports, too.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.Some sports or games go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese boxing, for example , has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game they often become good friends.

The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “Im sorry, I cant sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.”“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”“I cant write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.”I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you people do?”“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”“Thats good, sir.”“How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.“I have no idea. Sometimes its down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. Theres no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since its down it wont answer us.”After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said. “Lets forget the computer. What about your planes? Theyre still flying, arent they?”“I couldnt tell without asking the computer.”“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if hes flying to Washington, ” I suggested.“I wouldnt know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldnt take you if you didnt have a ticket.”“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”“I wouldnt know, ” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only IT knows. It cant tell me.”By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.54. The best title for the article is _.A. When the Computer Is DownB. The Most Frightening WordsC.

According to a pioneer（探索新知识的人） in nonverbal communication, only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people dont know the language, the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However, many gestures have different meanings, or no meaning at all, in different parts of the world.In the United States, for example, nodding your head up and down means “yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey, however, this motion can mean “no”. In Southeast Asia, nodding your head is a polite way of saying “Ive heard you”.In ancient（古老的） Rome, when the emperor wanted to spare （饶恕）someones life, he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States, when someone puts his / her thumb up, it means “Everything is all right”. However, in Sardinia and Greece, the gesture is insulting （无礼的）and should not be used there.In the United States, raising your clasped （握紧的）hands above your head means “Im the champion” or “Im the winner”. It is the sign prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made this gesture after a White House meeting, Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia, however, it is a sign of friendship.In the United States, holding your hand up with the thumb and index finger in a circle and the other three fingers spread out means “Everything is O.K.” and is frequently used by astronauts and politicians. In France and Belgium, it can mean “Youre worth nothing.”There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country, such as the distance to maintain （保持）between speakers. Americans usually feel comfortable when speaking with someone if the distance between them is about eighteen inches to arms length. Anything closer makes them feel uncomfortable.When talking to Americans, it is also important to make eye contact. If you look down when talking to an American, he / she may feel that you are embarrassed（尴尬）, afraid, or trying to hide something.In addition to knowing how to communicate nonverbally in a country, it is important to know what you and he cannot discuss. In the United States, there are certain topics to avoid （避免）when you first meet someone, For example, dont ask people their age, weight, religion, marital status(婚姻状况), how much money they earn, or how much something costs. You can talk about work, the weather, traffic problems, sports, food, news of the day, where one lives, consumer subjects (computers, car repairs, and so forth), and travel or vacation plans.These few examples illustrate （说明）that your actions can speak louder than your words. In a particular cultural contest, what you say and what you dont say are equally important.62.Which of the following is True?A. People all over the world only communicate verbally.B. Most of our gestures have no meaning at all.C. Some people think that 65 to 70 percent of our communication is nonverbal.D. Gestures are the most common way to common way to communicate.63.As we can see from the passage there are _kinds of nonverbal communicationsignals.A. four B. five C. sixD. seven64.Please paraphrase the clause“your actions can speak louder than your words.A. Your deeds are better than your wordsB. What you do is better than what you sayC. You try to
