Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

Body language is a vital form of communication In fact, it is believed that the various forms of body language contribute about 70 percent to our comprehension It is important to note, however, that body language varies in different cultures Take for example, eye movement In the USA a child is expected to look directly at a parent or teacher who is scolding him/her In other cultures the opposite is true Looking directly at a teacher or parent in such a situation is considered a sign of disrespect

Another form of body language that is used differently, depending on the culture, is distance In North America people don't generally stand as close to each other as in South America Two North

Americans who don't know each other well will keep a distance of four feet between them, whereas South Americans in the same situation will stand two to three feet apart North Americans will stand closer than

two feet apart only if they are having a confidential conversation or if there is intimacy between them.

Gestures are often used to communicate We point a finger, raise an eyebrow, wave an arm – or move any other part of the body – to show what we want to say However, this does not mean that people all over the world use the same gestures to express the same meanings Very often we find that the same gestures can communicate different meanings, depending on the country An example of a gesture that

could be misinterpreted is sticking out the tongue In many cultures it is a sign of making a mistake, but

in some places it communicates ridicule.

The dangers of misunderstanding one another are great Obviously, it is not enough to learn the language of another culture You must also learn its non-verbal signals if you want to communicate successfully

Question 39: What is the passage mainly about?

A The significance of non-verbal signals in America

B Non-verbal communication across cultures

C Misunderstandings in communication

D Interpretations of gestures in different cultures

Question 40: The word "misinterpreted" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _.

A mispronounced B misbehaved C misspelled D misunderstood

Question 41: The word "it" in paragraph 3 refers to _.

Question 42: As stated in the passage, in order to communicate successfully with people from another

culture, it is advisable for a person

A to learn only non-verbal signals of that culture

B to travel to as many countries as possible

C to use the body language of the people from that culture

D to learn both the language and non-verbal signals of that culture

Question 43: Which form of body language is NOT mentioned in the passage?

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

Educating children at home as an alternative to formal education is an option chosen by families in many parts of the world The homeschooling movement is popular in the United States, where close to one million children are educated at home In Canada 1 percent of school-age children are homeschooled, and the idea also enjoys growing popularity in Australia, where 20,000 families homeschool their children The movement is not limited to these countries Homeschooling families can be found all over the world, from Japan to Taiwan to Argentina to South Africa

Homeschooling is not a novel idea In fact, the idea of sending children to spend most of their day away from home at a formal school is a relatively new custom In the United States, for example, it was not until the latter part of the nineteenth century that state governments began making school attendance

compulsory Before that, the concept of a formal education was not so widespread Children learned the

skills they would need for adult life at home from tutors or their parents, through formal instruction or by working side by side with the adults of the family

In the modern developed world, where the vast majority of children attend school, families choose homeschooling for a variety of reasons For people who live in remote areas, such as the Australian outback or the Alaskan Wilderness, homeschooling may be their only option Children who have exceptional talents in the arts or other areas may be homeschooled so that they have more time to devote

to their special interests Much of the homeschooling movement is made up of families who, for various reasons, are dissatisfied with the schools available to them They may have a differing educational

philosophy, they may be concerned about the safety of the school environment, or they may feel that the local schools cannot adequately address their children's educational needs Although most families continue to choose a traditional classroom education for their children, homeschooling as an alternative educational option is becoming more popular

Question 44: Which of the following could be the main idea of the passage?

B teachers’ qualifications may be one of the reasons why students come to school

C not many children in modern society are allowed to be educated at home

D some schools are unable to provide a safe environment for their students
