Sign language is a kind of body language. Body language includes eye contact, walking postures, standing postures and gestures (手勢). Body language can express all kinds of thoughts and feelings. Different cultures have different body language. Here are some common gestures in different cultures.
In China, a thumb-up sign is used to praise someone for being “good”, “great” and “smart”. In America, a thumb-up sign means “It’s good” or “It’s OK” while a thumb-down sign means the opposite (相反的). ______. For example, in Japan, that also means “man”, “your father” and “the highest”. In South Korea, it also means “the chief”, “one’s own father”, “minister” and “captain”. In Australia, the United States, Mexico and other countries, it means “the fate of prayer (祈禱的命運)”. As for French people and Indians, this gesture can be used when asking for a ride.
Point with your forefinger (食指). It is very impolite in Europe and America. British and American people make a circle with the thumb and forefinger and the other three fingers keep straight, which means “Excellent”.
Put out your forefinger. In the United States, it’s used to ask someone to wait; French people ask for an answer by using this gesture; in Myanmar, it means “please”; in Singapore, it shows something or someone is the most important.
Hold out your forefinger and middle finger and make the “V” word. “V” is the first letter of victory (勝利), so it means “victory” in Britain, France and other counties. But in Serbia, the gesture stands for “heroism” and in the Netherlands, it stands for “freedom”.
Besides, the “OK” sign means “money” in Japan while it means bad behavior in Latin America.

Are you stressed out, scared or worried all the time Do you avoid going to certain places, seeing friends or doing certain things because of your worries Do your worries keep you awake at night If you’ve answered yes, you may be suffering from anxiety.
Anxiety is a normal and necessary part of life. Anxiety is your brain’s way of telling you about danger. It is anxiety which helps you jump out of the way if a car is speeding towards you. But if it gets out of hand, anxiety can get in the way of your getting on with life and can become a real problem. If this is the case for you, treatment may be a helpful way for you to get your anxiety under control.
Anxiety is a normal part of life. Some people may feel uneasy if moving to a new place and some may get overly anxious in certain situations. There are lots of reasons for this. One main reason is after a stressful thing which has happened in your life. So, if you are involved in a car crash, it’s quite likely that you will be more worried than other people around cars and driving.
Being anxious also probably runs in families. If your parents suffer from anxiety then you are more likely to be anxious too. This is probably partly due to genetics, and partly because of how things are when you’re growing up.
Even though people don’t talk about it much, anxiety is one of the most common mental health problems. About 1 in 4 people will have an anxiety problem at some time in their life.
If you have an anxiety problem, it’s hard for other people to understand why something that doesn’t worry them, like being in a crowd of people, can be so scary for you. This can make you feel separated and lonely, as may become worse and worse.
The good news is there are lots of excellent treatments available for anxiety. These include taking therapies (療法) and drugs.

Phones and computers are all useful tools, and we may feel more productive when we use them. However, when we spend hours on digital devices (電子設備), our overall productivity decreases. Why
Many digital activities need high levels of concentration (專注). When we text or email someone, for example, or even play games, we have to focus. When we do this, our brain uses energy. Too much energy consumption can result in stress. What is the best cure for our over-stressed minds David Strayer, a cognitive psychologist (認知心理學家) at the University of Utah says the answer is simple: Spend some time in nature.
Strayer and other scientists are studying nature’s effect on our brains and bodies. When we are in natural environments, the prefrontal cortex (前額皮質(zhì)) (the brain’s control center) relaxes. Studies show that when people can see trees and grass, they are calmer and do better in school. Indeed, people even relax when they look at photos of nature. As a result, they do better on different cognitive tasks.
Other psychologists are also studying “nature therapy ( 療法 ).” In a study at Chiba University in Japan, 84 people went for a 15-minute walk in seven different forests. The same number of people walked around different city centers. Researchers then took blood from each person. The forest walkers had a 16 percent decrease in the stress hormone cortisol (應激激素皮質(zhì)醇). In addition, they had a 2 percent drop in blood pressure and a 4 percent drop in heart rate. All did better than the city walkers. Lead researcher Yoshifumi Miyazaki has an explanation for these results. Our bodies relax in pleasant, natural surroundings, he says. Humans evolved (進化) in that environment, not in places with tall buildings and lots of traffic.
Psychologist Stephen Kaplan and his team members have done similar research. In one study, people took a 50-minute walk in a public garden. In a test afterwards, their short-term memory improved. When the same people walked on a city street, it did not.
Kaplan says it is the visual details in nature like sunsets, streams, butterflies that reduce stress and mental tiredness. We enjoy them without having to concentrate on them. This allows our brains to rest and recover from the stresses of modern life. “Imagine a therapy that was readily available, and could improve your cognitive functioning at zero cost,” Kaplan says. “It exists. It’s called ‘interacting with nature’.”
67．Which of the following best shows the main idea of this passage
A．Long working hours cause rising level of stress.
B．Spending time in nature can reduce mental stress.
C．More people are exploring their natural neighborhood.
D．For a better life, people should use digital devices less.
68．Which of the following is NOT a possible benefit of seeing nature
A．Better school performance. B．improved cognitive ability.
C．Faster reaction speed. D．feelings of calm and relaxation.
69．Which of the following is right according to the passage
A．In natural environments, the prefrontal cortex will get stressed.
B．Digital activities make our life more productive and interesting.
C．The visual details in nature give our minds time to rest and recover.
D．City walkers had a decreased blood pressure and a faster heart rate.
