15、o 40 are based on the following passage.This morning in class, we discussed organized crime and its place in modern society.

16、. The truth, however, bears no resemblance (32) to this image. In movies, members of organized crime typically (33) innocent business owners to pay them protection moneywhich is actually a fee the citizens need to pay for protection from the very people theyre paying. They are also known to knock of

21、 Part III: Reading ComprehensionQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.September 23, 2023Dear Diary, This afternoon, Mr Jenkins asked me to stay for a few minutes after class. He told me that next week is Deaf Awareness Week and that we would be discussing it in class. Hes already pla

22、nned several activities and lectures, but, for obvious reasons, he also wanted me to make a class presentation. I stared at him in disbelief. How could I possibly make a presentation to the entire class? I was petrified. I didnt want to do it, and I told him so. He was determined, though. He really

23、thought it would be a good opportunity for me to share my culture (his word) with my classmates. That got me thinking. Do I have a unique culture? Ive never thought about it like that before. I went straight to the library to do some research. What makes different cultures recognizable and distinct?

24、 I know that language is what distinguishes so many cultures. I may be deaf but I still understand English. Yet, I do utilize a form of English that not everyone can understandAmerican Sign Language, or ASL. Once I realized that, I immediately looked for books about ASL so I could learn more. Soon a

25、fter Thomas Gallaudet graduated from Yale University, he was commissioned to help teach Alice Cogswell, the deaf daughter of a wealthy local doctor. Gallaudet travelled to Europe, where deaf education had been in existence for a long time, to study communication among deaf people. He met Laurent Cle

26、rc in Paris, recruited him to help develop deaf education in the United States, and, in 1817, the two founded the American School for the Deaf in Hartford, Connecticut. Laurent Clerc began teaching American students the form of French Sign Language with which he was familiar. However, many of the st

27、udents at the new school were already using their own unique form of sign language that had independently developed in their communities. Over time, and with extensive use, the various forms eventually evolved into what we now know as American Sign Language. Sign language is almost exclusively based

28、 on easily decipherable hand motions that represent spoken words. Since deaf people rely heavily on their sense of sight, this method of communication is logical. Body language is extremely important in ASL, and subtle movements of the eyebrows, mouth, or fingers often indicate connotations that are

29、 typically represented by tone of voice in spoken language. Interestingly, there is still no universal form of sign language that is readily understood by deaf people around the world. Indeed, though people in the United States and Great Britain speak English, American Sign Language and British Sign

30、 Language are distinctly different and speakers of each form would not be able to easily communicate with one another. You know what? Im not so scared to make this presentation to my class next week. In fact, Im actually looking forward to it. Maybe Ill even inspire some of my classmates to learn ASL! That would be great. I guess Mr Jenkins was right. I do have a special culture to share. American Sign Language is like a different language, and understanding that language is essential to understanding me and my culture. 41. T
