Can the way you stand or sit affect your success?
This is often discussed in business—“the importance of body language”, noted the US news website Business Insider. “It actually has an impact on not just the way others look at us, but also how we actually perform. ”
That’s perhaps why Harvard Business School professor Amy Cuddy shot to instant fame (一举成名) after giving a TED talk on the subject in 2012. According to The New York Times, Cuddy’s speech is among the most viewed TED talks of all time.
Cuddy and her team study body language, particularly what they call “high-power” and “low-power” poses (姿态). Their research showed that standing or sitting in a certain way, even for just two minutes, changes one’s body chemistry and self-perception.
“I wanted to equip people with tools that would help them feel stronger, less fearful, and better able to bring their full, spirited selves to stressful situations like speaking in class, ” Cuddy told CNN.
“High-power” refers to the act of taking a posture of confidence, even when you don’t feel very confident. Typical high-power poses are about opening up. You stretch (伸展) and expand your body to take up as much space as possible. For example, bosses are doing high-power poses when they lean (倚靠) back in their chairs, put their hands behind their heads, and kick their feet up onto their desks. Meanwhile, people take low-power positions when they’re feeling helpless or defeated. They
close up, wrapping their arms around themselves and tucking their limbs in (缩起四肢).
“This isn’t about what your body language is communicating to others, it’s about what your body language is communicating to you. Your body language is changing your mind, which changes your behavior, which changes your outcomes, ”said Cuddy.
The best-known high power pose is nicknamed the “Wonder Woman” pose. You just stand tall with your chest out and your hands on your hips (臀部). Why not give it a shot (尝试), and see whether you feel more confident than before?
【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述身体语言对个人事业成功的影响和展示个人自信的重要性。

A. help people to become more confident

D. Resting your chin on your hands as if wondering about something.
【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据第六段“Typical high-power poses are about opening up. You stretch and expand your body to take up as much space as possible. ”以及后面举的例子可知, high-power poses一般是那些往外伸展的动作, 所以C项为正确答案。

A simple gesture can be formed into a child’s memory so quickly that it will cause the child to give a false answer to a question accompanied by that gesture. A new finding suggests that parents, social workers,
psychologists and lawyers should be careful with their hands as well as their words.
Gestures can be as informative as speech, but hand gestures are so common that we rarely notice we’re using them.
While the recall of both adults and children are easy to react to suggestion, the memories of children are known to be particularly influenced, said lead researcher Sara Broaders of Northwestern University. Kids are used to looking to adults to tell events for them and can be misled even if not intentionally(故意地).
Previous research, for example, has shown that detail-loaded questions often cause false answers; when asked, say “Did you drink juice at the picnic? ” the child is likely to say “yes” even if no juice had been available. It is not that the child is consciously lying, but rather the detail is quickly formed into his or her memory.
To avoid this problem, social workers have long been advised to ask children only open-ended questions, such as “What did you have at the picnic? ” But an open-ended question paired with a gesture, briefly meaning a juice box, is treated like a detailed question. That is, children become likely to answer falsely.
And it isn’t just a few kids: 77% of children gave at least one piece of false information when a detail was suggested by an ordinary gesture. Gestures may also become more popular when talking with non-fluent
language users, such as little kids, Broaders said as hand movements can impart meaning of unfamiliar words and phrases. “It certainly seems reasonable that adults would gesture more with children. ”
In general, Broaders advises parents and other adults to “Try to be aware of your hands when questioning a child about an event. Otherwise, you might be getting answers that don’t reflect what actually happened. ”
【文章大意】手势语在一定程度上会增加相互间的理解。然而, 它也有消极作用, 即误导对方, 尤其是会误导孩子, 本文就介绍了这一研究结果。
4. According to the text, gestures ______.
A. have not any function at all
B. are rarely used by people
C. have a certain effect on children
D. are often used by social workers
【解析】选C。细节理解题。文章第一段就指出手势语对孩子有影响, 而全文都在说这一观点, 故选C。
5. Why are kids easy to be misled by gestures according to Sara Broaders?
A. These gestures are very attractive.
B. Their memories are affected easily.
C. Children are easy to tell lies.
D. These gestures are used frequently.
【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第一段首句 “A simple gesture can be
formed into a child’s memory so quickly that it will cause the child to give a false answer to a question accompanied by that gesture. ”和第三段可知, 主要原因是孩子的记忆很容易受到外界的影响, 故选B。
6. The underlined word “impart” in Paragraph 6 means ______.
A. separate B. tell apart C. confuse D. pass on
【解析】选D。词义猜测题。由语境可知, 大人对孩子使用更多的手势语是有原因的, 手势语能够传达那些不熟悉的单词和短语的含义, 故选D。
7. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Gestures—a Useful Way of Education
B. Gestures Can Mislead Children
C. Gestures Mean Adult’s Directions
D. Gestures Affect Children Much
【解析】选B。标题归纳题。短文主要介绍了一项研究结果: 手势语会对孩子产生误导作用。D项表达内容太宽泛, 故选B。
Ⅱ. 阅读填句
根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Many effects of a lack of sleep, such as being bad-tempered and not working at your best are well known. 1 Regular poor sleep puts you at risk of serious medical conditions, including obesity and heart disease, and it shortens your life expectancy.
How much sleep do we need?
2 But some need more and some less. What matters is that you find out how much sleep you need and then try to achieve it. As a general rule, if you wake up tired and spend the day longing for a chance to have a nap, it’s likely that you’re not getting enough sleep.
3
An occasional night without sleep makes you feel tired and irritable(急躁易怒) the next day, but it won’t harm your health. After several sleepless nights, the mental effects become more serious. Your brain will fog, making it difficult to concentrate and make decisions. 4
How to catch up on lost sleep?
If you don’t get enough sleep, there’s only one way to compensate (补偿) —getting more sleep.
5 If you’ve had months of limited sleep, you’ll have built up a big sleep debt, so expect recovery to take several weeks.
Starting on a weekend, try to add on an extra hour or two of sleep a night. The way to do this is to go to bed when you’re tired and allow your body to wake you in the morning (no alarm clocks allowed! ).
A. What happens if we don’t sleep?
B. Why is a good sleep vital for a long life?
C. It won’t happen with a single early night.
D. If it continues, lack of sleep can affect your overall health.
E. However, the cost of all those sleepless nights is more than those.
F. It’s now clear that a solid night’s sleep is essential for a long and healthy life.
G. Most of us need around 8 hours of good-quality sleep a night to function properly.
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了睡眠不足的影响以及如何补充睡眠。
1. 【解析】选E。上面提到了睡眠不足的负面影响, 如脾气不好和工作状态不好等, 下文又说长期睡眠不足会引发肥胖和心脏病等健康问题, 此处需要一个承上启下的过渡句, 故E项(然而, 那些不眠之夜的代价远不止这些)符合语境。
2. 【解析】选G。根据本空后的“But some need more and some less. ”可知, 有的人需要多一些, 有的人需要少一些, 此处说的是睡眠时间问题, 故G项(我们大多数人每晚需要大约8个小时的高质量睡眠才能正常工作)符合语境。
3. 【解析】选A。本段分别介绍了偶尔性的睡眠不足和长期性的睡眠不足对健康的影响, 故A项(如果我们不睡觉会发生什么? )符合语境。
4. 【解析】选D。本空前讲述了经过几个不眠之夜, 精神上的影响会更加严重, 思维变得模糊, 很难集中精力做决定, 此处是说这种情况继续下去的后果, 故D项(如果这种情况持续下去, 睡眠不足会影响你的整体健康)符合语境。
5. 【解析】选C。根据本空后的“If you’ve had months of limited sleep, you’ll have built up a big sleep debt, so expect recovery to take several weeks. ”可知, 几个月的睡眠不足让你欠下了一大笔睡眠债, 所以预计需要用几个星期的时间恢复, 故C项(这不会在一夜之间发生)符合语境。
