第二部分　閱讀(共兩節，滿分50分)
第一節(共15小題；每小題2.5分，滿分37.5分)
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。
A
“When studying foreign languages, don't forget about body language，” Anne Merritt said.
Something as simple as a gesture can show friendliness in one culture, embarrassment in another, impatience in a third. Even silence means different things in different places. If you want to avoid making some mistakes when traveling abroad, you should pay attention to the following.
Touch
Britain, along with many countries in northern Europe and the Far East, has a “non contact” culture. In those countries, there is very little physical contact in people's daily talks. Even touching someone's arm by accident is the reason for an apology. However, in the high contact cultures of the Middle East, Latin America, and southern Europe, physical touch is a big part of daily life.
What's more, there are different standards for the touch. In much of the Arab world, men hold hands and kiss each other in greeting, but would never do the same with a woman. In Thailand and Laos, it is a taboo (禁忌) to touch anyone's head, even children's. In South Korea, elders can touch younger people with force when trying to get through a crowd, but younger people can't do the same.
Eye contact
In most Western countries, frequent eye contact is a sign of confidence and attentiveness (專注). We may think that a conversation partner who looks away is either not listening to us or lying. Of course, this is not the standard around the world.
In many Asian, African, and Latin American countries, the unbroken (不間斷的) eye contact would be considered impolite and rude. These cultures consider avoiding eye contact a sign of respect for bosses and elders. In these parts of the world, children won't look at an adult who is speaking to them, and nor will employees look at their bosses.
21．In Britain, when people are talking, they usually ________．
A．avoid eye contact
B．touch the others' arms
C．avoid physical contact
D．apologize for their mistakes
22．In southern Europe, physical touch is ________．
A．unnecessary B．impolite
C．dangerous D．common
23．What does this passage mainly tell us
A．How to have a good time abroad.
B．The importance of body language.
C．How to communicate with foreigners.
D．An introduction to some body languages.
B
As a young boy, I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling. And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven, I sold sponge rubber (海綿橡膠) door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms, I knew it was safe to continue with my show because they weren't angry or threatening although they may have a cold attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans (鍋碗瓢盆) salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them close and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance (保險) business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this__new__area,__and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.
24．What does the author seem to share in Paragraph 1
A．His present feelings.
B．His positive life attitude.
C．His language ability.
D．His earlier experience.
25．What does the underlined part “this new area” in the last paragraph refer to
A．The life insurance business.
B．The pots and pans industry.
C．The study of body language.
D．The selling of sponge rubber.
26．What was the key to the author's success
A．Listening to customers.
B．Arguing with customers.
C．Studying customers' words.
D．Reading customers' body language.
27．How does the text mainly develop
A．By following the order of space.
B．By following the order of time.
C．By giving examples.
D．By giving reasons.

Researchers say that they have understood the meaning of gestures that wild monkeys use to communicate. They say that wild monkeys can communicate 19 specific messages to one another with a “vocabulary” of 66 gestures. The scientists discovered this by following and filming groups of monkeys in Uganda, and examining more than 5，000 hours of recordings of these meaningful exchanges.
Dr Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional (有意識的) communication to have been recorded in the animal kingdom. Only humans and monkeys, she said, have a system of communication with which they sent a message to another group member on purpose.
Although previous research has shown that other animals can understand complex (復雜的) information from their partners' call, they do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr Hobaiter said. “They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect，” she added.
In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, meaning “Climb on me.” The little monkey immediately jumps on to its mother's back and they travel off together. “The important message from this study is that there is another species out there that can communicate in a meaningful way, so that's not unique to humans.” said Dr Hobaiter.
Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”．
“The limited ‘vocabulary’ of the gestures suggests either that the monkeys have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information hidden in their gestures and responses.” she said. “In addition, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals communicate with their non verbal languages. So, it seems that difference still remains between human language and monkeys' non verbal communication.”
28．According to Dr Hobaiter, only monkeys and humans can ________．
A．memorize specific words
B．understand complex information
C．use voices to communicate
D．communicate messages on purpose
29．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Calls. B．Gestures.
C．Messages. D．Voices.
30．What did Dr Shultz think of the study
A．It was well designed but poorly carried out.
B．It was a good try but the findings were limited.
C．The evidence was reliable but the conclusion isn't new.
D．The result was disappointing and the methods were wrong.
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．The communication skills used by animals.
B．The smartest species in the animal kingdom.
C．A study on monkeys' communication gestures.
D．A breakthrough in studying monkeys' behaviors.
D
For the majority of people, watching movies is their favorite pastime. Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies. But what about deaf children who can't read yet, or whose reading isn't fast enough to keep up with captions
Mariella Satow, 17, a senior student of Rugby School in the UK, ran into these questions and spent over a year developing SignUp to solve them. SignUp, launched in August, is a free－of－charge Google Chrome Extension that provides American Sign Language (ASL) captioning over videos on Disney＋. It puts a small box with a sign language interpreter (口譯者) in the corner of the screen while the movie plays.
In 2020, Satow decided to learn a new language, specifically ASL. “Normally, I learn languages by watching television shows with captions, but I found nothing similar for ASL.”
Realizing that some deaf children would come across the problem, Satow took action. Using her $3，000 she made from part－time job dog－walking, Satow employed an India－based company to help her design a coding system that could overlay ASL interpretation on streaming platforms. As of Nov.12, the extension has provided on－screen ASL interpretation for nine movies such as Moana.
“We watched Moana ... My 6－year－old daughter's face was priceless. She loved it ... It was the first time she had had full access to a movie. Thank you！” a user commented below on SignUp's Twitter account. Satow said that some teachers would use the extension in their classrooms and arrange movie nights for their students.
“My hope is we'll have a lot more movies interpreted，” she told the website Sag Harbor Express. “I'm hoping to expand to a more adult audience and to other countries—to make it as big as possible.”
32．What does SignUp do
A．Reduce the speed of captions.
B．Teach deaf children a sign language.
C．Offer on－screen ASL interpretation.
D．Provide captions in different languages.
33．Why did Satow develop SignUp
A．To earn money for her education.
B．To make ASL popular among the deaf.
C．To become a sign language interpreter.
D．To help deaf children enjoy movies better.
34．What's the attitude of parents and teachers to SignUp
A．Favorable. B．Negative.
C．Uncaring. D．Doubtful.
35．Which of the following best describes Satow
A．Brave and independent.
B．Kind－hearted and creative.
C．Friendly and honest.
D．Smart and humorous.

How to improve your communication skills
Whether you want to have better conversations in your social life or get your ideas across better at work, here are some essential tips for you.
Watch your body language
You tell your partner you're open to discussion but your arms are crossed; you say you're listening but haven't looked up from your phone yet. __36__. So, watch your body language.
Put away the distractions
__37__ while someone's talking to you or you're supposed to be hanging out with them. Maybe we can't get rid of all our distractions or put away technology completely, but just taking the time to look up could vastly improve our communication with each other.
Have practice conversations
If you don't think you're great at communicating with co workers or people you don't know well, try practicing on friends and family that you're very comfortable with. __38__ and let you know if you're getting too quiet, personal or might make someone else feel uncomfortable.
__39__
Stories are powerful. They activate our brains, make presentations better, and make us more persuasive. Learn the secrets of becoming a great storyteller with these rules to structure your description. Everyone's got at least one great story in them.
Listen, really listen
__40__. It's hard work, we know, but an extremely good conversation is a bunch of words elegantly connected with listening. Then, even if your communication styles don't match, at least you're both working off the same page. And hopefully the other person will be attentively listening to you too.
A．Tell a story
B．It's pretty rude to use your phone
C．Learn the secrets of communication
D．It's ridiculous to hang up the phone
E．They will give you honest feedback
F．Pay attention and listen to other people without interrupting
G．Remember you're constantly communicating even when you're not saying a word

While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life, college sets the stage for that exploration. I myself went through this __41__ process and found something that has changed my __42__ at college for the better: I discovered ASL—American Sign Language (美式手語)．
I never felt an urge to learn any sign language before. My entire family is hearing, and so are all my friends. The __43__ languages were enough in all my interactions. Little did I know that I would discover my love for ASL.
The __44__ began during my first week at college. I watched as the ASL Club __45__ their translation of a song. Both the hand movements and the very __46__ of communicating without speaking __47__ me. What I saw was completely unlike anything I had experienced in the past. This newness just left me __48__ more.
After that, feeling the need to __49__ further, I decided to drop in on one of ASL club's meetings. I only learned how to __50__ the alphabet that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my __51__ progress, I was excited. I then made it a point to attend those meetings and learn all I could.
The following term, I registered an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking was __52__. I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant. __53__， if there had been any talking, it would have __54__ us to learn less. Now, I appreciate the silence and the __55__ way of communication it opens.

閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
Daniel was the new boy in our school. The teacher assigned (安排) me to him. He couldn't hear or talk. So he had an adult with him. She explained what professors were teaching in sign language. Sometimes I got caught staring at him and my friends teased (嘲笑) me all day. I noticed him going everywhere all alone with no friends at all. Sometimes I felt worried, maybe even concerned.
We were assigned as lab partners and surprisingly he wasn't as bad as I thought. We would both sit quietly and do our work. But when it came to communication and his translator wasn't there, it was a mess. At first, I could barely understand what he was doing with his hands. I could see in his eyes that he was getting annoyed at me. From trying to communicate with sign language he moved to pictures and words. That worked well for both of us, but my drawing skills were not as good as his, so I stuck to words and gestures.
The second semester went by well and quickly. Daniel and I understood each other pretty well. I could understand some of his hand movements. I realized that Daniel was different from anyone I'd ever met, me included. When he saw that people couldn't understand him, he came up with another way of communicating. His artistic ability was matchless (無敵的). Then he became my best friend and we both understood each other pretty well despite our differences. During the winter break, I tried to get Daniel to play some games with me and to my surprise he was better than I expected. I also learned a lot from him.
注意：
1．續寫詞數應為150個左右；
2．請按如下格式在相應位置作答。

Americans are careful about how and when they meet one another's eyes. In conversation, eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both persons look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other's eyes, emotions are heightened and the relationship becomes more intimate. Therefore, they carefully avoid this, except in proper situations. Proper street behaviorin the United States requires a nice balance of attention and inattention. You are supposed to look at a passer－by just enough to show that you're aware of his presence. If you look too little, you appear too proud, and if you look too much, you are too curious. Usually what happens is that people watch each other until they are about eight feet apart, at which point both cast down their eyes. In England the polite listener stares at the speaker attentively and blinks his eyes occasionally as a sign of interest. That eye－blink says nothing to Americans, who expect the listener to nod or to murmur something—such as “mm－hum”.
18．What does it mean when you look at a passer－by too little in the street
A．You are too curious.
B．You appear too proud.

答案：B
19．Why does a person in England blink his eyes while listening to others
A．To show he is bored.

C．To show he is tired.
答案：B
20．What does an American expect the listener to do
A．Blink the eyes silently.
B．Nod and keep silent.

答案：C
第二部分　閱讀(共兩節，滿分50分)
第一節(共15小題；每小題2.5分，滿分37.5分)
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。
A
“When studying foreign languages, don't forget about body language，” Anne Merritt said.
Something as simple as a gesture can show friendliness in one culture, embarrassment in another, impatience in a third. Even silence means different things in different places. If you want to avoid making some mistakes when traveling abroad, you should pay attention to the following.
Touch
Britain, along with many countries in northern Europe and the Far East, has a “non contact” culture. In those countries, there is very little physical contact in people's daily talks. Even touching someone's arm by accident is the reason for an apology. However, in the high contact cultures of the Middle East, Latin America, and southern Europe, physical touch is a big part of daily life.
What's more, there are different standards for the touch. In much of the Arab world, men hold hands and kiss each other in greeting, but would never do the same with a woman. In Thailand and Laos, it is a taboo (禁忌) to touch anyone's head, even children's. In South Korea, elders can touch younger people with force when trying to get through a crowd, but younger people can't do the same.
Eye contact
In most Western countries, frequent eye contact is a sign of confidence and attentiveness (專注). We may think that a conversation partner who looks away is either not listening to us or lying. Of course, this is not the standard around the world.
In many Asian, African, and Latin American countries, the unbroken (不間斷的) eye contact would be considered impolite and rude. These cultures consider avoiding eye contact a sign of respect for bosses and elders. In these parts of the world, children won't look at an adult who is speaking to them, and nor will employees look at their bosses.

B
As a young boy, I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling. And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven, I sold sponge rubber (海綿橡膠) door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms, I knew it was safe to continue with my show because they weren't angry or threatening although they may have a cold attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans (鍋碗瓢盆) salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them close and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance (保險) business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this__new__area,__and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.
篇章導讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了作者從小賣東西，學會了閱讀人們的肢體語言，這給他事業上的成功帶來了很大幫助。

解析：指代判斷題。根據最后一段中的“I joined the life insurance (保險) business at the age of twenty.(我在20歲的時候加入了人壽保險行業。)”和畫線部分上文“I was lucky ... could be used in”可知，作者小時候在賣鍋碗瓢盆的時候學會看肢體語言的技巧可以用在“人壽保險行業”這個新的領域，因此畫線部分“this new area”指的是“人壽保險行業”。故選A。
26．What was the key to the author's success
A．Listening to customers.

27．How does the text mainly develop
A．By following the order of space.
B．By following the order of time.

C
Researchers say that they have understood the meaning of gestures that wild monkeys use to communicate. They say that wild monkeys can communicate 19 specific messages to one another with a “vocabulary” of 66 gestures. The scientists discovered this by following and filming groups of monkeys in Uganda, and examining more than 5，000 hours of recordings of these meaningful exchanges.
Dr Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional (有意識的) communication to have been recorded in the animal kingdom. Only humans and monkeys, she said, have a system of communication with which they sent a message to another group member on purpose.
Although previous research has shown that other animals can understand complex (復雜的) information from their partners' call, they do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr Hobaiter said. “They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect，” she added.
In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, meaning “Climb on me.” The little monkey immediately jumps on to its mother's back and they travel off together. “The important message from this study is that there is another species out there that can communicate in a meaningful way, so that's not unique to humans.” said Dr Hobaiter.
Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”．
“The limited ‘vocabulary’ of the gestures suggests either that the monkeys have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information hidden in their gestures and responses.” she said. “In addition, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals communicate with their non verbal languages. So, it seems that difference still remains between human language and monkeys' non verbal communication.”
篇章導讀：本文是一篇說明文。作者主要介紹了對猴子肢體語言的一項研究和結果，以及專家對這項研究的態度。
28．According to Dr Hobaiter, only monkeys and humans can ________．
A．memorize specific words
B．understand complex information
C．use voices to communicate
D．communicate messages on purpose
答案：D
解析：細節理解題。根據第二段最后一句“Only humans and monkeys ... to another group member on purpose.”可知，Hobaiter博士認為只有猴子和人能有目的地交流信息。故選D。
29．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Calls. B．Gestures.
C．Messages. D．Voices.
答案：D
解析：指代判斷題。根據第三段第一句 “Although previous research has shown ... their voices intentionally to communicate messages.”以及畫線詞所在句“They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect”可知，盡管先前的研究已經表明其他動物能從同伴的召喚中理解復雜的信息，但它們似乎不能有目的地使用聲音來交流信息，這是唯一看起來與人類語言相像的東西。由此可推知，此處的they指前文的voices。故選D。
30．What did Dr Shultz think of the study
A．It was well designed but poorly carried out.
B．It was a good try but the findings were limited.
C．The evidence was reliable but the conclusion isn't new.
D．The result was disappointing and the methods were wrong.
答案：B
解析：細節理解題。根據倒數第二段“Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist ... the results were ‘a little disappointing’．”可知，Dr Shultz認為該研究是一次好的嘗試，但是研究的發現不盡如人意。故選B。
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．The communication skills used by animals.
B．The smartest species in the animal kingdom.
C．A study on monkeys' communication gestures.
D．A breakthrough in studying monkeys' behaviors.
答案：C
解析：主旨大意題。通讀全文，尤其根據第一段第一句“Researchers say that ... wild monkeys use to communicate.”以及最后一段最后一句“So, it seems that ... non verbal communication.”可知，本文主要介紹了對猴子手勢語交流的一項研究。故選C。
D
For the majority of people, watching movies is their favorite pastime. Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies. But what about deaf children who can't read yet, or whose reading isn't fast enough to keep up with captions
Mariella Satow, 17, a senior student of Rugby School in the UK, ran into these questions and spent over a year developing SignUp to solve them. SignUp, launched in August, is a free－of－charge Google Chrome Extension that provides American Sign Language (ASL) captioning over videos on Disney＋. It puts a small box with a sign language interpreter (口譯者) in the corner of the screen while the movie plays.
In 2020, Satow decided to learn a new language, specifically ASL. “Normally, I learn languages by watching television shows with captions, but I found nothing similar for ASL.”
Realizing that some deaf children would come across the problem, Satow took action. Using her $3，000 she made from part－time job dog－walking, Satow employed an India－based company to help her design a coding system that could overlay ASL interpretation on streaming platforms. As of Nov.12, the extension has provided on－screen ASL interpretation for nine movies such as Moana.
“We watched Moana ... My 6－year－old daughter's face was priceless. She loved it ... It was the first time she had had full access to a movie. Thank you！” a user commented below on SignUp's Twitter account. Satow said that some teachers would use the extension in their classrooms and arrange movie nights for their students.
“My hope is we'll have a lot more movies interpreted，” she told the website Sag Harbor Express. “I'm hoping to expand to a more adult audience and to other countries—to make it as big as possible.”
篇章導讀：本文是一篇新聞報道。文章報道了一位17歲的英國學生Mariella Satow(馬里利亞·薩托)開發了SignUp，以幫助聾啞兒童更好地觀看電影。
32．What does SignUp do
A．Reduce the speed of captions.
B．Teach deaf children a sign language.
C．Offer on－screen ASL interpretation.
D．Provide captions in different languages.
答案：C
解析：細節理解題。根據第二段中的“SignUp, launched in August ... while the movie plays.”可知，在電影播放的時候，屏幕的角落里有一個手語翻譯，即提供屏幕上的ASL翻譯，這就是SignUp。故選C。
33．Why did Satow develop SignUp
A．To earn money for her education.
B．To make ASL popular among the deaf.
C．To become a sign language interpreter.

解析：細節理解題。根據第一段中的“Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies.”和第四段中的“Realizing that some ... took action.”可知，Satow開發SignUp是為了幫助聾啞兒童更好地觀看電影。故選D。
34．What's the attitude of parents and teachers to SignUp
A．Favorable. B．Negative.
C．Uncaring. D．Doubtful.
答案：A
解析：推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段中的“We watched Moana ... to a movie.”以及“Satow said that ... for their students.”可知，父母認為他們的孩子很喜歡SignUp，這是孩子第一次完全看懂一部電影；老師們會使用SignUp為學生安排電影之夜。由此可推知，父母和老師對SignUp的態度是贊成的。故選A。
35．Which of the following best describes Satow
A．Brave and independent.
B．Kind－hearted and creative.
C．Friendly and honest.
D．Smart and humorous.
答案：B
解析：推理判斷題。文章主要講述了一位17歲的英國學生Mariella Satow，為了幫助聾啞兒童更好地觀看電影，開發了能為視頻提供手語字幕的SignUp。由此可推知，Mariella Satow很善良而且富有創造性。故選B。

How to improve your communication skills
Whether you want to have better conversations in your social life or get your ideas across better at work, here are some essential tips for you.
Watch your body language
You tell your partner you're open to discussion but your arms are crossed; you say you're listening but haven't looked up from your phone yet. __36__. So, watch your body language.
Put away the distractions
__37__ while someone's talking to you or you're supposed to be hanging out with them. Maybe we can't get rid of all our distractions or put away technology completely, but just taking the time to look up could vastly improve our communication with each other.
Have practice conversations
If you don't think you're great at communicating with co workers or people you don't know well, try practicing on friends and family that you're very comfortable with. __38__ and let you know if you're getting too quiet, personal or might make someone else feel uncomfortable.
__39__
Stories are powerful. They activate our brains, make presentations better, and make us more persuasive. Learn the secrets of becoming a great storyteller with these rules to structure your description. Everyone's got at least one great story in them.
Listen, really listen
__40__. It's hard work, we know, but an extremely good conversation is a bunch of words elegantly connected with listening. Then, even if your communication styles don't match, at least you're both working off the same page. And hopefully the other person will be attentively listening to you too.
A．Tell a story
B．It's pretty rude to use your phone
C．Learn the secrets of communication
D．It's ridiculous to hang up the phone
E．They will give you honest feedback
F．Pay attention and listen to other people without interrupting

37．答案：B
解析：根據小標題“Put away the distractions”以及設空后“while someone's talking ... with them”可知，設空處應指某個干擾物，B項(使用手機是不禮貌的)符合語境。故選B。

解析：前文“If you don't think ... you're very comfortable with.(如果你認為自己不善于與同事或不太熟悉的人交流，試著在會讓你很舒服的朋友和家人身上練習。)”提出可以和家人、朋友一起練習交流，E項(他們會給你誠實的反饋)承接前文，選項中的They指代前文中的friends and family。故選E。
39．答案：A
解析：設空處是本段小標題，結合前后文的小標題可知，這里應用祈使句。根據本段中的“Stories are powerful.(故事很強大。)”以及“Learn the secrets ... your description.(用這些規則來構建你的描述，學習成為一名優秀的故事講述者的秘訣。)”可知，本段主要是建議要學會講故事，A項(講一個故事)適合作為本段小標題。故選A。
40．答案：F
解析：本段的小標題“Listen, really listen”說明本段建議要在溝通的過程中傾聽，F項(注意聽別人說話，不要打斷別人)照應小標題內容，且與后文“It's hard work ... connected with listening.(我們知道，這是一項艱巨的工作，但一場非常好的對話是一堆單詞與傾聽優雅地聯系在一起。)”相銜接。故選F。

Body language is used by people in their interactions with others. It is very useful because it can help you make yourself easily understood. Some gestures are widely accepted as they have the same meanings.
Body language also varies from culture to culture. For example, when talking, some people like standing close to each other, but English people must keep a distance away. In most countries, it is considered impolite to sit with your feet pointing at another person.
So when you are in a foreign country, knowing the meanings of gestures will make your stay there much more pleasant and comfortable.

Daniel was the new boy in our school. The teacher assigned (安排) me to him. He couldn't hear or talk. So he had an adult with him. She explained what professors were teaching in sign language. Sometimes I got caught staring at him and my friends teased (嘲笑) me all day. I noticed him going everywhere all alone with no friends at all. Sometimes I felt worried, maybe even concerned.
We were assigned as lab partners and surprisingly he wasn't as bad as I thought. We would both sit quietly and do our work. But when it came to communication and his translator wasn't there, it was a mess. At first, I could barely understand what he was doing with his hands. I could see in his eyes that he was getting annoyed at me. From trying to communicate with sign language he moved to pictures and words. That worked well for both of us, but my drawing skills were not as good as his, so I stuck to words and gestures.
The second semester went by well and quickly. Daniel and I understood each other pretty well. I could understand some of his hand movements. I realized that Daniel was different from anyone I'd ever met, me included. When he saw that people couldn't understand him, he came up with another way of communicating. His artistic ability was matchless (無敵的). Then he became my best friend and we both understood each other pretty well despite our differences. During the winter break, I tried to get Daniel to play some games with me and to my surprise he was better than I expected. I also learned a lot from him.

[精彩范文]
I decided to learn sign language secretly and planned to give Daniel a surprise. From then on, I committed myself to learning sign language in secret. I practiced diligently every night, determined to surprise Daniel with my newfound ability. I dedicated so much effort to learning sign language that there were moments when Daniel mistook my focus on the subject for a wandering mind in class. But I had to avoid his questioning eyes in the fear of spoiling my long－brewed surprise. Just when I was happy about the progress I made, I came to spot something unusual.
Daniel was not close with me. He intentionally avoided me. He refused to “talk” to me at school and he hung up on me after class. One day, I approached the quiet boy and gestured “I'm sorry” in sign language. Seeing that, his eyes lit up with unexpected joy. “You are my best friend forever.” I continued to sign. He was stunned. I explained to him my learning plans. His eyes overflowed with tears and he gestured, “The fact that we are friends will never change！”

Americans are careful about how and when they meet one another's eyes. In conversation, eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both persons look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other's eyes, emotions are heightened and the relationship becomes more intimate. Therefore, they carefully avoid this, except in proper situations. Proper street behaviorin the United States requires a nice balance of attention and inattention. You are supposed to look at a passer－by just enough to show that you're aware of his presence. If you look too little, you appear too proud, and if you look too much, you are too curious. Usually what happens is that people watch each other until they are about eight feet apart, at which point both cast down their eyes. In England the polite listener stares at the speaker attentively and blinks his eyes occasionally as a sign of interest. That eye－blink says nothing to Americans, who expect the listener to nod or to murmur something—such as “mm－hum”.
18．What does it mean when you look at a passer－by too little in the street
A．You are too curious. B．You appear too proud.
C．You are not attentive.
19．Why does a person in England blink his eyes while listening to others
A．To show he is bored.
B．To show he is interested.
C．To show he is tired.
20．What does an American expect the listener to do
A．Blink the eyes silently. B．Nod and keep silent.
C．Nod or murmur something.

第二部分　閱讀(共兩節，滿分 50 分)
第一節(共15小題；每小題2.5分，滿分37.5分)
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。
A
“When studying foreign languages, don't forget about body language，” Anne Merritt said.
Something as simple as a gesture can show friendliness in one culture, embarrassment in another, impatience in a third. Even silence means different things in different places. If you want to avoid making some mistakes when traveling abroad, you should pay attention to the following.
Touch
Britain, along with many countries in northern Europe and the Far East, has a “non contact” culture. In those countries, there is very little physical contact in people's daily talks. Even touching someone's arm by accident is the reason for an apology. However, in the high contact cultures of the Middle East, Latin America, and southern Europe, physical touch is a big part of daily life.
What's more, there are different standards for the touch. In much of the Arab world, men hold hands and kiss each other in greeting, but would never do the same with a woman. In Thailand and Laos, it is a taboo (禁忌) to touch anyone's head, even children's. In South Korea, elders can touch younger people with force when trying to get through a crowd, but younger people can't do the same.
Eye contact
In most Western countries, frequent eye contact is a sign of confidence and attentiveness (專注). We may think that a conversation partner who looks away is either not listening to us or lying. Of course, this is not the standard around the world.
In many Asian, African, and Latin American countries, the unbroken (不間斷的) eye contact would be considered impolite and rude. These cultures consider avoiding eye contact a sign of respect for bosses and elders. In these parts of the world, children won't look at an adult who is speaking to them, and nor will employees look at their bosses.
篇章導讀：本文是一篇應用文。文章介紹了在不同國家的日常交流過程中應該注意的一些肢體語言。
21．In Britain, when people are talking, they usually ________．
A．avoid eye contact
B．touch the others' arms
C．avoid physical contact
D．apologize for their mistakes
解析：細節理解題。根據Touch部分中的“Britain, along with ... in people's daily talks.(英國與北歐和遠東的許多國家一樣，有著‘非接觸’的文化。在這些國家，人們的日常談話中很少有身體接觸。)”可知，在英國，人們交談時通常避免身體接觸。故選C。
22．In southern Europe, physical touch is ________．
A．unnecessary B．impolite
C．dangerous D．common
解析：細節理解題。根據Touch部分中的“However, in the high contact cultures ... a big part of daily life.(然而，在中東、拉丁美洲和歐洲南部的高度接觸文化中，身體接觸是日常生活的重要組成部分。)”可知，在歐洲南部，身體接觸是常見的。故選D。
23．What does this passage mainly tell us
A．How to have a good time abroad.
B．The importance of body language.
C．How to communicate with foreigners.
D．An introduction to some body languages.
解析：主旨大意題。通讀全文可知，文章主要介紹了一些肢體語言在不同文化中的含義。故選D。
B
As a young boy, I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling. And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven, I sold sponge rubber (海綿橡膠) door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms, I knew it was safe to continue with my show because they weren't angry or threatening although they may have a cold attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans (鍋碗瓢盆) salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them close and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance (保險) business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this__new__area,__and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.
篇章導讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了作者從小賣東西，學會了閱讀人們的肢體語言，這給他事業上的成功帶來了很大幫助。
24．What does the author seem to share in Paragraph 1
A．His present feelings.
B．His positive life attitude.
C．His language ability.
D．His earlier experience.
解析：細節理解題。根據第一段“As a young boy ... it was time to leave.”可知，作者在第一段分享了他早期的工作經歷。故選D。
25．What does the underlined part “this new area” in the last paragraph refer to
A．The life insurance business.
B．The pots and pans industry.
C．The study of body language.
D．The selling of sponge rubber.
解析：指代判斷題。根據最后一段中的“I joined the life insurance (保險) business at the age of twenty.(我在20歲的時候加入了人壽保險行業。)”和畫線部分上文“I was lucky ... could be used in”可知，作者小時候在賣鍋碗瓢盆的時候學會看肢體語言的技巧可以用在“人壽保險行業”這個新的領域，因此畫線部分“this new area”指的是“人壽保險行業”。故選A。
26．What was the key to the author's success
A．Listening to customers.
B．Arguing with customers.
C．Studying customers' words.
D．Reading customers' body language.
解析：細節理解題。根據最后一段中的“I was lucky ... connected with people. (我很幸運，小時候在賣鍋碗瓢盆的時候學會看肢體語言的技巧可以用在這個新的領域，這些技巧直接關系到我在任何與人密切相關的生意上的成功。)”可知，作者成功的關鍵是能夠讀懂客戶的肢體語言。故選D。
27．How does the text mainly develop
A．By following the order of space.
B．By following the order of time.
C．By giving examples.
D．By giving reasons.
解析：推理判斷題。根據第一段中的“As a young boy”和“At the age of eleven”，第二段中的“As a teenager”以及最后一段中的“at the age of twenty”可推知，本文是按照時間順序展開敘述的。故選B。
C
Researchers say that they have understood the meaning of gestures that wild monkeys use to communicate. They say that wild monkeys can communicate 19 specific messages to one another with a “vocabulary” of 66 gestures. The scientists discovered this by following and filming groups of monkeys in Uganda, and examining more than 5，000 hours of recordings of these meaningful exchanges.
Dr Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional (有意識的) communication to have been recorded in the animal kingdom. Only humans and monkeys, she said, have a system of communication with which they sent a message to another group member on purpose.
Although previous research has shown that other animals can understand complex (復雜的) information from their partners' call, they do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr Hobaiter said. “They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect，” she added.
In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, meaning “Climb on me.” The little monkey immediately jumps on to its mother's back and they travel off together. “The important message from this study is that there is another species out there that can communicate in a meaningful way, so that's not unique to humans.” said Dr Hobaiter.
Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”．
“The limited ‘vocabulary’ of the gestures suggests either that the monkeys have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information hidden in their gestures and responses.” she said. “In addition, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals communicate with their non verbal languages. So, it seems that difference still remains between human language and monkeys' non verbal communication.”
篇章導讀：本文是一篇說明文。作者主要介紹了對猴子肢體語言的一項研究和結果，以及專家對這項研究的態度。
28．According to Dr Hobaiter, only monkeys and humans can ________．
A．memorize specific words
B．understand complex information
C．use voices to communicate
D．communicate messages on purpose
解析：細節理解題。根據第二段最后一句“Only humans and monkeys ... to another group member on purpose.”可知，Hobaiter博士認為只有猴子和人能有目的地交流信息。故選D。
29．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Calls. B．Gestures.
C．Messages. D．Voices.
解析：指代判斷題。根據第三段第一句 “Although previous research has shown ... their voices intentionally to communicate messages.”以及畫線詞所在句“They are the only thing that looks like human language in that respect”可知，盡管先前的研究已經表明其他動物能從同伴的召喚中理解復雜的信息，但它們似乎不能有目的地使用聲音來交流信息，這是唯一看起來與人類語言相像的東西。由此可推知，此處的they指前文的voices。故選D。
30．What did Dr Shultz think of the study
A．It was well designed but poorly carried out.
B．It was a good try but the findings were limited.
C．The evidence was reliable but the conclusion isn't new.
D．The result was disappointing and the methods were wrong.
解析：細節理解題。根據倒數第二段“Dr Susanne Shultz, a biologist ... the results were ‘a little disappointing’．”可知，Dr Shultz認為該研究是一次好的嘗試，但是研究的發現不盡如人意。故選B。
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．The communication skills used by animals.
B．The smartest species in the animal kingdom.
C．A study on monkeys' communication gestures.
D．A breakthrough in studying monkeys' behaviors.
解析：主旨大意題。通讀全文，尤其根據第一段第一句“Researchers say that ... wild monkeys use to communicate.”以及最后一段最后一句“So, it seems that ... non verbal communication.”可知，本文主要介紹了對猴子手勢語交流的一項研究。故選C。
D
For the majority of people, watching movies is their favorite pastime. Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies. But what about deaf children who can't read yet, or whose reading isn't fast enough to keep up with captions
Mariella Satow, 17, a senior student of Rugby School in the UK, ran into these questions and spent over a year developing SignUp to solve them. SignUp, launched in August, is a free－of－charge Google Chrome Extension that provides American Sign Language (ASL) captioning over videos on Disney＋. It puts a small box with a sign language interpreter (口譯者) in the corner of the screen while the movie plays.
In 2020, Satow decided to learn a new language, specifically ASL. “Normally, I learn languages by watching television shows with captions, but I found nothing similar for ASL.”
Realizing that some deaf children would come across the problem, Satow took action. Using her $3，000 she made from part－time job dog－walking, Satow employed an India－based company to help her design a coding system that could overlay ASL interpretation on streaming platforms. As of Nov.12, the extension has provided on－screen ASL interpretation for nine movies such as Moana.
“We watched Moana ... My 6－year－old daughter's face was priceless. She loved it ... It was the first time she had had full access to a movie. Thank you！” a user commented below on SignUp's Twitter account. Satow said that some teachers would use the extension in their classrooms and arrange movie nights for their students.
“My hope is we'll have a lot more movies interpreted，” she told the website Sag Harbor Express. “I'm hoping to expand to a more adult audience and to other countries—to make it as big as possible.”
篇章導讀：本文是一篇新聞報道。文章報道了一位17歲的英國學生Mariella Satow(馬里利亞·薩托)開發了SignUp，以幫助聾啞兒童更好地觀看電影。
32．What does SignUp do
A．Reduce the speed of captions.
B．Teach deaf children a sign language.
C．Offer on－screen ASL interpretation.
D．Provide captions in different languages.
解析：細節理解題。根據第二段中的“SignUp, launched in August ... while the movie plays.”可知，在電影播放的時候，屏幕的角落里有一個手語翻譯，即提供屏幕上的ASL翻譯，這就是SignUp。故選C。
33．Why did Satow develop SignUp
A．To earn money for her education.
B．To make ASL popular among the deaf.
C．To become a sign language interpreter.
D．To help deaf children enjoy movies better.
解析：細節理解題。根據第一段中的“Even for the deaf, captions (字幕) make it possible for them to enjoy movies.”和第四段中的“Realizing that some ... took action.”可知，Satow開發SignUp是為了幫助聾啞兒童更好地觀看電影。故選D。
34．What's the attitude of parents and teachers to SignUp
A．Favorable. B．Negative.
C．Uncaring. D．Doubtful.
解析：推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段中的“We watched Moana ... to a movie.”以及“Satow said that ... for their students.”可知，父母認為他們的孩子很喜歡SignUp，這是孩子第一次完全看懂一部電影；老師們會使用SignUp為學生安排電影之夜。由此可推知，父母和老師對SignUp的態度是贊成的。故選A。
35．Which of the following best describes Satow
A．Brave and independent.
B．Kind－hearted and creative.
C．Friendly and honest.
D．Smart and humorous.
解析：推理判斷題。文章主要講述了一位17歲的英國學生Mariella Satow，為了幫助聾啞兒童更好地觀看電影，開發了能為視頻提供手語字幕的SignUp。由此可推知，Mariella Satow很善良而且富有創造性。故選B。

How to improve your communication skills
Whether you want to have better conversations in your social life or get your ideas across better at work, here are some essential tips for you.
Watch your body language
You tell your partner you're open to discussion but your arms are crossed; you say you're listening but haven't looked up from your phone yet. __36__. So, watch your body language.
Put away the distractions
__37__ while someone's talking to you or you're supposed to be hanging out with them. Maybe we can't get rid of all our distractions or put away technology completely, but just taking the time to look up could vastly improve our communication with each other.
Have practice conversations
If you don't think you're great at communicating with co workers or people you don't know well, try practicing on friends and family that you're very comfortable with. __38__ and let you know if you're getting too quiet, personal or might make someone else feel uncomfortable.
__39__
Stories are powerful. They activate our brains, make presentations better, and make us more persuasive. Learn the secrets of becoming a great storyteller with these rules to structure your description. Everyone's got at least one great story in them.
Listen, really listen
__40__. It's hard work, we know, but an extremely good conversation is a bunch of words elegantly connected with listening. Then, even if your communication styles don't match, at least you're both working off the same page. And hopefully the other person will be attentively listening to you too.
A．Tell a story
B．It's pretty rude to use your phone
C．Learn the secrets of communication
D．It's ridiculous to hang up the phone
E．They will give you honest feedback
F．Pay attention and listen to other people without interrupting
G．Remember you're constantly communicating even when you're not saying a word
篇章導讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了提升溝通技巧的一些方法。
36．答案：G
37．答案：B
解析：前文“You tell your partner ... from your phone yet.(你告訴你的伙伴你愿意討論，但你雙臂交叉；你說你在聽，但還沒有從手機上抬起頭來。)”說明了你的肢體動作會反映出潛在含義，G項(記住，即使你一句話也不說，你也在不斷地交流)承接前文。故選G。
解析：根據小標題“Put away the distractions”以及設空后“while someone's talking ... with them”可知，設空處應指某個干擾物，B項(使用手機是不禮貌的)符合語境。故選B。
38．答案：E
解析：前文“If you don't think ... you're very comfortable with.(如果你認為自己不善于與同事或不太熟悉的人交流，試著在會讓你很舒服的朋友和家人身上練習。)”提出可以和家人、朋友一起練習交流，E項(他們會給你誠實的反饋)承接前文，選項中的They指代前文中的friends and family。故選E。
39．答案：A
解析：設空處是本段小標題，結合前后文的小標題可知，這里應用祈使句。根據本段中的“Stories are powerful.(故事很強大。)”以及“Learn the secrets ... your description.(用這些規則來構建你的描述，學習成為一名優秀的故事講述者的秘訣。)”可知，本段主要是建議要學會講故事，A項(講一個故事)適合作為本段小標題。故選A。

篇章導讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了傳統中醫的發展過程、理念以及其在世界上的影響。
56．答案：has been practised
57．答案：a
解析：考查動詞的時態、語態和主謂一致。根據時間狀語for over 3，000 years可知，應用現在完成時；從句主語which指代先行詞TCM，和practise之間是被動關系，應用現在完成時的被動語態；主語為單數。故填has been practised。
解析：考查冠詞。句意：神農，古代神話中的一個人物，被認為是中醫之父。此處應用不定冠詞泛指一個人物，且figure的發音以輔音音素開頭。故填a。
58．答案：that
59．答案：achieving
解析：考查定語從句的引導詞。設空處引導定語從句，先行詞是anything，從句缺少主語，應用關系代詞。當先行詞是不定代詞時，定語從句的引導詞只能用that。故填that。
解析：考查非謂語動詞。介詞about后應用動名詞作賓語。故填achieving。
60．答案：more effective
61．答案：and
解析：考查形容詞的比較級。根據設空后的than western medicine可知，此處應用形容詞effective的比較級。故填more effective。

62．答案：for
63．答案：rooted
解析：考查介詞。win the prize for ... 意為“因……而獲獎”，是固定搭配。故填for。
解析：考查非謂語動詞。Her discovery和root之間是被動關系，應用過去分詞作后置定語。故填rooted。
64．答案：widely
65．答案：treatments
解析：考查詞性轉換。應用副詞widely修飾動詞applied，意為“廣泛地”。故填widely。
解析：考查名詞。句意：許多外國人，包括奧林匹克運動員，都對各種治療方法著迷，例如拔罐、刮痧、推拿。此處treatment為可數名詞，various后接可數名詞復數。故填treatments。

Body language is used by people in their interactions with others. It is very useful because it can help you make yourself easily understood. Some gestures are widely accepted as they have the same meanings.
Body language also varies from culture to culture. For example, when talking, some people like standing close to each other, but English people must keep a distance away. In most countries, it is considered impolite to sit with your feet pointing at another person.
So when you are in a foreign country, knowing the meanings of gestures will make your stay there much more pleasant and comfortable.
第二節(滿分25分)
閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
Daniel was the new boy in our school. The teacher assigned (安排) me to him. He couldn't hear or talk. So he had an adult with him. She explained what professors were teaching in sign language. Sometimes I got caught staring at him and my friends teased (嘲笑) me all day. I noticed him going everywhere all alone with no friends at all. Sometimes I felt worried, maybe even concerned.
We were assigned as lab partners and surprisingly he wasn't as bad as I thought. We would both sit quietly and do our work. But when it came to communication and his translator wasn't there, it was a mess. At first, I could barely understand what he was doing with his hands. I could see in his eyes that he was getting annoyed at me. From trying to communicate with sign language he moved to pictures and words. That worked well for both of us, but my drawing skills were not as good as his, so I stuck to words and gestures.
The second semester went by well and quickly. Daniel and I understood each other pretty well. I could understand some of his hand movements. I realized that Daniel was different from anyone I'd ever met, me included. When he saw that people couldn't understand him, he came up with another way of communicating. His artistic ability was matchless (無敵的). Then he became my best friend and we both understood each other pretty well despite our differences. During the winter break, I tried to get Daniel to play some games with me and to my surprise he was better than I expected. I also learned a lot from him.
注意：
1．續寫詞數應為150個左右；
2．請按如下格式在相應位置作答。
　I decided to learn sign language secretly and planned to give Daniel a surprise. ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
Daniel was not close with me. ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
寫前導讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了作者和新來的聾啞學生Daniel (丹尼爾)被老師安排在一起，為了更好地與他交流，作者決定學習手語，過程如何？看著與自己疏遠的Daniel，作者該怎么辦？
[精彩范文]
I decided to learn sign language secretly and planned to give Daniel a surprise. From then on, I committed myself to learning sign language in secret. I practiced diligently every night, determined to surprise Daniel with my newfound ability. I dedicated so much effort to learning sign language that there were moments when Daniel mistook my focus on the subject for a wandering mind in class. But I had to avoid his questioning eyes in the fear of spoiling my long－brewed surprise. Just when I was happy about the progress I made, I came to spot something unusual.
Daniel was not close with me. He intentionally avoided me. He refused to “talk” to me at school and he hung up on me after class. One day, I approached the quiet boy and gestured “I'm sorry” in sign language. Seeing that, his eyes lit up with unexpected joy. “You are my best friend forever.” I continued to sign. He was stunned. I explained to him my learning plans. His eyes overflowed with tears and he gestured, “The fact that we are friends will never change！”
