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 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. 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 15. What is the passage mainly about? A. Non-verbal communication across cultures B. The significance of non-verbal signals in America C. Misunderstandings in communication D. Interpretations of gestures in different cultures Question 16. According to paragraph 1, when scolded by his/her parent or teacher, an American child is expected to _________.

When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their personal preference. In other families, grandparents or professional name-makers come up with a child’s name. In some cases, the time of a child’s birth influences how the child’s name is determined. In many European cultures, names are typically chosen by parents. Parents’ choice for their child’s name may be based on names of their relatives or ancestors. For example, in Italy, children are traditionally named after their grandparents. The parents generally use the father’s parents’ names first. If they have more children, then they will use the mother’s parents’ names. Similarly, some people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives who have died. This tradition is seen as a means to protect the child from the Angel of Death. Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child’s grandfather or a fortune-teller chooses the child’s name. In contrast to the tradition of naming children after relatives, the child’s name is chosen to influence the child’s character. For example, names may be based on a connection to certain elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal. Or the name might include a written character meaning beauty, strength, or kindness. In certain African cultures, when a child is born plays a large part in determining the child’s name. In Ghana’s Akan culture, the day a child is born determines the child’s name. But each day has different names for boys and girls. For instance, a boy born on Friday is named Kofi, whereas a girl born on the same day is named Afua. Both Kofi and Afua mean “wanderer” or “explorer.” Children with these names are seen as travelers. No matter where the name comes from, a child’s name is the first gift in life. Whether the name is chosen according to preference or dictated by tradition, it reflects something about a child’s culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected. Question 42. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The practice of child naming in Europe B. The history of child naming around the world C. The choice of name for a child in Asia D. The tradition of child naming in different cultures Question 43. According to the passage, in many European cultures, names are typically selected by______.

The choice of a child’s name should be based on names of his or her relatives. Question 46. Which of the following about the tradition of child naming in African countries is NOT true according to the passage? A. No matter how a child’s name is chosen, it is related to his or her culture. B. Children born on Friday are normally given names meaning traveling. C. The arrival time of a child is an important factor in deciding his or her name. D.
