★文中我不认识的词汇有：_______________________________________________
★文中我不理解的句子有：（在文中用横线划出）
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了肢体语言在不同文化中的差异。
1．解析：选B particularly“尤其，特别”。由语境可知，肢体语言在交流中非常重要，因此面对面交流往往比通过电话交流要好，尤其是当你要设法推销东西时。故B项正确。
2．解析：选D 根据下文“it will also show your emotions”可知，肢体语言不仅可以给他人留下总体印象(impression)，还可以传达你的情感。故D项正确。
3．解析：选A 由下文“a false smile”以及“it is usually possible to know what someone really ...”可推知，让肢体撒谎(lie)是件很困难的事情。故A项正确。
4．解析：选C sincere“真诚的”。根据句中“between ... and a false smile”可知，空格处应为与“false”词义相反的单词。故C项正确。
5．解析：选B 根据语境可知，如果掌握了肢体语言的密码，那么就很有可能知道一个人的真实用意。故B项正确。
6．解析：选A 联系上下文可知，无论他们用言语说什么，你都可以通过肢体语言来了解其真实用意。故A项正确。
7．解析：选C 根据下文“Culture codes vary from one country to another”可知，尽管大多数肢体语言都是通用的，但由于国家之间存在着文化(cultural)差异，因此还有许多肢体语言具有文化特色。故C项正确。
8．解析：选D clear up“清理”；cut down“削减，砍倒”；refer to“参考，涉及”；lead to“导致”。根据语境可知，文化差异的存在往往会导致误解的产生。故D项正确。
9．解析：选A 根据语境可知，在美国，三根伸出的手指构成的圆圈手势表示赞同。sign与“gesture”词义相近。故A项正确。
10．解析：选B 根据句中的“showing disrespect”可知，在巴西、希腊和德国该手势表示粗鲁(rude)。故B项正确。
11．解析：选D shake“握手”；touch“接触”；raise“升起”；hold“持有”。句意：异性之间通过手拉手或亲吻来表达爱意是不被接受的。下文的“hold hands”是提示，故D项正确。
12．解析：选C 根据语境可知，男女之间在公众场合表达爱意，如手拉手或亲吻是不被接受的(acceptable)。故C项正确。
13．解析：选C 联系上文可知，在许多亚洲文化中，异性之间在公众场合手拉手或亲吻是不被接受的，然而在亚洲的一些地方，同性之间的这些举动却是很普遍的。两句间构成转折关系。故C项正确。
14．解析：选A 根据上文“displays of affection”可知，在一些亚洲国家，同性之间用来表达友情的手拉手是很普遍的。故A项正确。
15．解析：选D 根据生活常识可知，人们在初次见面(meet)时往往会握手。故D项正确。
16．解析：选B 根据语境可知，由于初次见面时握手是恰当的，因此男女见面首先会握手。start a handshake“从握手开始”，符合语境。
17．解析：选A 由语境可知，在印度尼西亚，除非在生意场合，否则男性不能主动和女性握手。unless“除非”，符合语境。故A项正确。
18．解析：选C 联系上文中提及的一些肢体语言在不同文化中的不同含义可知，当你去国外旅游时，为了避免出现一些令人尴尬的(embarrassing)错误，应该在出发前了解一些当地的基本文化常识。故C项正确。
19．解析：选D 句意同上。experience“经历”；develop“形成，发展”；respect“尊重”；understand“明白，获悉，理解”。故D项正确。
