When we have a conversation with someone, we may be using more body language than words. However, the same body language may mean different things in different countries. Thats why people sometimes do not understand each other correctly. Pointing to one part of the body can mean differently in different cultures. For example, in the USA people point to their heads when they think someone is clever. However, in Europe it means He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head. In our Chinese culture, nodding our head up and down means yes and shaking our head from side to side means no. However, in parts of India, Greece and Turkey, it means just the opposite. In England or the USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb and the second finger, it means Youre all right or Everything is OK. However, if we do this in France or Belgium, it means Youre worth zero. In Greece or Turkey, we should not make this gesture（手势）. Or we are thought to be very rude. The meaning of gestures can also change over time. In the 1960s, the V sign meant peace. However, during World War II, it meant victory. In Greece, it is a very insulting（污辱性）sign.Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning throughout the world, such as smiling and crying.( ) 1. In England, if people point to their heads it means they think someone is _. A. cleverB. stupidC. headacheD. angry( ) 2.In India, if one nods his head up and down, it means he _.

One of the leading reasons is the growing number of pet cats. By keeping your pet cats in your home, you can help give birds a better possible chance to live.Of the 90 million pet cats in this country, about twothirds are allowed to go outside. It is said that these cats kill hundreds of millions of birds each year, as well as billions of small animals such as rabbits and field mice.They can also bring illness to the animals that live in peoples yard(院子), further weakening the health of the natural populations.Allowing pet cats to go outside is not just bad for birds and wildlife, its also bad for the cats themselves. Outdoor cats can get sick very easily. They are in danger from traffic and attacks(攻击)from other animals. In fact, outdoor cats usually dont live past the age of five, while indoor cats often live to be 17 or older.Keep your pet cat inside! If you raise a young cat, its your duty to let it play inside.阅读以上信息，完成下面的表格，每空一词。ProblemThe number of birds is becoming 1._; at the same time，many pet cats are in 2._from traffic and attacks from other animalsReason for the problemPet cats are 3._to go outside freelyWhat to doPeople who 4._ a young cat have the 5._ to let it play inside七、书面表达（15分）以Changes in my hometown为题写一篇80词左右的文章，包括以下内容：1.过去：狭窄的很脏的道路，垃圾到处都是，爱笑的旧房，听收音机或看电视，步行或骑自行车等。2.现在：宽广的干净的街道，路两旁是绿树成荫，有商场和高楼、新的公寓，电脑、互联网、手机，乘公交车或小汽车，有私家车等3.自己的观点：8
