It is easy to understand, although you cant hear it. It is sign language.When you wave to a friend who is across the street, you are using sign language. When you smile at someone, you are saying，“I want to be friendly.”，but you are not using speech. You are using sign language. When you raise your hand in class，you are saying, “Please ask me. I think I know the correct answer.”Babies who cant talk can point at things. They are using sign language. A policeman who wants to stop traffic holds up his hands. He is using sign language.Many years ago, a French priest，Charles Michael de Epee，became interested in education for deaf people. He invented a finger alphabet(字母表). It is still in use. People can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands, and deaf people can read and understand them. Soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries. The only university for the deaf is Gallaudet College in Washington DC.Today, in the United States, there are special TV news programs for deaf people. The newsreader tells the news in sign language. At the same time, the words appear on the TV screen.The actors in the Theatre of Deaf dont spell every word. Sometimes they use hand signs. When they put two hands together，it means sandwich. They can make a roof with their hands when they want to show a house. One finger in front of an actors mouth can mean quiet. You can talk to people who are behind windows that are closed. And when you go swimming with your friends, you can have conversations under water.How many hand signs do you use every day?21Which of the following about sign language is TRUE?AIt is a special language used in a few countries in the world.BIt is a way to express ones ideas without words.CIt is only used by the deaf.DIt can be heard.22If you want to express the idea that “I am very friendly.” to someone，you will _.Araise your handBput one hand onto the otherCsmile at the personDmake a roof with your hands23Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AHand signs instead of finger signs are used every day.BThere are schools, colleges and universities for the deaf in the USA.CThe French priest Charles invented sign language.DEven babies are using sign language.24The passage is mainly about _.Aan introduction to sign languageBthe importance of sign languageCa famous priest in FranceDhow to use sign languageBTraveling around the world is a dream that many people have.

Some locations may be in upcoming (即将出现的) books.Many tourists outside the theme park said the experience would boost its appeal to younger audience.Trowbridge said while there would not be any character looking alike at the park, fans wanting to see Harry Potter and his magical friends wouldnt leave disappointed.“This is Harrys world，”said Trowbridge. “Every fan wants to have an encounter (相遇) with the stars of the show.”29The Harry Potter theme park will _.Agive the visitors beautiful natural viewBgive the visitors a lot of booksClet the visitors experience many of locations in the books and movies about Harry PotterDlet the visitors see lots of animals30Whats the opinion of J.

Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yesTo some degree our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligenceOn the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied environmentThus the limits of a persons intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environmentThis view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of waysIt is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born withThe closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligenceThus if we take two unrelated people at random（随机地） from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely differentIf on the other hand we take two identical （完全相同的） twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each otherRelations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birthImagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different surroundingsWe might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boringWe would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a partThis conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence 32Which of these sentences best describes the writers point in Para1?ATo some degree, intelligence is given at birthBIntelligence is developed by the environmentCSome people are born clever and others born stupidDIntelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment33It is suggested in this passage that_ Aunrelated people are not likely to have different intelligenceBclose relations usually have similar intelligenceCthe closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligenceDpeople who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence34In Para.3, the word surroundings means_Aintelligence Blife Cenvironments Dhousing35The best title for this article would be_AOn Intelligence BWhat Intelligence Means CWe are Born with Intelligence DEnvironment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。This Way to DreamlandDaydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing.
