Although speech is the most advanced form of communication, there are many ways of communicating without using speech Signals, signs, symbols, and gestures may be found in
Trang 5Trang 5 https://tienganhthpt.com
every known culture The basic function of signal is to impinge upon the environment in such
a way that it attracts attention, as, for example, the dots and dashes of a telegraph circuit
Coded to refer to speech, the potential for communication is very great Less adaptable to the codification of words, signs also contain meaning in and of themselves A stop sign or a barber pole conveys meaning quickly and conveniently
Symbols are more difficult to describe than either signals or signs because of their intricate
relationship with the receiver’s cultural perceptions In some cultures, applauding in a theater provides performers with an auditory symbol of approval Gestures such as waving and handshaking also communicate certain cultural messages
Although signals, signs, symbols, and gestures are very useful, they do have a major disadvantage in communication They usually do not allow ideas to be shared without the sender being directly adjacent to the receiver Without an exchange of ideas, interaction comes to a halt As a result, means of communication intended to be used for long distances and extended periods must be based upon speech To radio, television, and the telephone, one must add fax, paging systems, electronic mail, and the Internet, and no one doubts but that there are more means of communication on the horizon
Question 36: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A Gestures B Signs and signals C Speech D Communication Question 37: According to this passage, what is a signal?
A A form of communication that interrupts the environment
B The most difficult form of communication to describe

A Because people were unable to understand signs, signals, and symbols
B Because people believed that signs, signals, and symbols were obsolete
C Because people wanted to communicate across long distances
Trang 6Trang 6 https://tienganhthpt.com
D Because people wanted new forms of communication
Question 42: It may be concluded from this passage that
A Only some cultures have signs, signals, and symbols
B Signs, signals, symbols, and gestures are forms of communication
C Symbols are very easy to define and interrupt
D Waving and handshaking are not related to culture
