In today’s society, language plays a key role in defining gender (性别) by vocabulary, and also their non-verbal vocabulary. Each one of these different types of ways of communicating is obviously different between men and women.
Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women. It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men;this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely and quickly than men. In one study it was found that women spoke for an average of three minutes describing a painting, as opposed to the thirteen-minute average it took men to describe it.
Men and women also tend to have a very different non-verbal way of communicating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say. Men’s body language is much more reserved when talking to women. Men tend not to make as much eye contact and they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them. Men avoid other people’s body space while talking, and they also tend to sit back when talking. All of these have given off the impression of disinterest or boredom. Women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk with and they tend to raise more topics for conversation.
Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral(中立). After learning about our styles of communicating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating, what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”? The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost. The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “I wonder if there’s something there?” would no longer exist. 8.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A.The differences between men’s and women’s languages. B.The different speed of men’s and women’s speech. C.The ability of men’s and women’s spoken language. D.The non-verbal vocabulary of men and women.
9.In what way do men and women differ according to the third paragraph?
A.Speed of understanding. B.Understanding of speech roles. C.Politeness of communication. D.Application of body language.
10.What is the author’s attitude to the differences between men’s and women’s communication? A.Cautious. C.Ambiguous.
B.Favorable.
D.Skeptical.
11.What is the best title for the text? A.Women, born excellent talkers B.Men’s and women’s social roles C.Vocabulary and communication D.Opposite gender, different languages 答案
[语篇解读] 本文讲述的是“不同的性别,不同的语言”。在日常交流中我们可以用语言交流,也可以用肢体语言传递信息,这两种交流方式男女有着很大的区别。
8.B 推理判断题。根据第二段中的It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men(事实证明,女性说话速度比男性快);再根据第二段下文this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely and quickly than men. (这是由于女性比男性更容易被打断,而且她们比男性能更清楚、更准确、更迅速地说话。)由此推知,此处this指的是男人和女人说话的速度不同。故选B项。
9.D 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句Men and women also tend to have a very different non-verbal way of communicating...(男人和女人也有一种非常不同的非语言交流方式)以及下文提到的Men’s body language is much more reserved when talking to women.可知选D项。
10.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中...what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”? The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost. (如果我们都说一样的语言,那还有什么乐趣呢?男性和女性交谈时互玩的小游戏就会失去了)可知,作者对男女之间的沟通差异是赞同的。故选B项。cautious 小心谨慎的;ambiguous 模糊不清的;skeptical 怀疑的。
11.D 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的In today’s society, language plays a key role in defining gender (性别) by vocabulary, and also their non-verbal vocabulary.主要讲述了男性和女性之间交谈语言和方式的差异,并列举了两性之间的几个不同之处。由此推断出本文的主题应该是:不同的性别,不同的语言。故选D项。

We’ve all been there:in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence.
What’s the problem?It’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s awkward and challenging, or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.
Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease(润滑剂)for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute
