As she approaches, your classmate suddenly raises her eyebrows. What does her facial expression tell you?The human face is an important communication tool. We often express our feelings nonverbally by doing things like smiling or frowning. Sometimes we use facial expressions to add information to something we are saying. Think again about your classmate. As she raised her eyebrows, she probably said, ‘Oh, what a surprise to see you here!”Both her face and words expressed her feelings. However, sometimes our facial expressions do not match our words, especially when we are trying to hide our feelings. If someone says to you, ‘I'm fine,' but he is looking down and frowning, how do you think he really feels?Facial expressions have different meanings in different cultures. Miscommunications can happen even when two people are speaking the same language. In many cultures, for example, a smile communicates happiness or amusement. In some Asian countries, people also smile when they are embarrassed. Seeing this, a Westerner might be confused and think the Asian person is laughing. In North and South America, and many European cultures, a speaker and listener look at each other directly while talking. In those cultures, looking down or away from a speaker often suggests boredom. In many Asian cultures, looking at someone directly in the eyes while speaking is considered rude.Facial expressions communicate important messages, and can sometimes be more powerful than words. How do people in your culture use them to communicate?（1）The two examples in Paragraph 2 show that __________________.A . Both face and words can express one's feelingsB .

Once a king got two nice falcons(猎鹰) from his son. He had never seen such beautiful falcons before. He loved them so much and he ordered the best falconer to train them to fly.After several months, the king came to see how the training was going on. He found that one falcon had already been able to fly high in the sky, while the other was staying on the branch(树枝) of a tree quietly, just keeping still.The king called all his falconers together and ordered them to try every way they could to make the other falcon fly. But none of them succeeded. One day，while the king was taking walk in the forest, an idea came to his mind. Maybe someone who knew the natural environment well could solve this problem. He sent for a farmer who lived in the forest into his palace to train it at once.The next morning, the king saw the other falcon flying above in the sky freely. "It is unbelievable!" shouted the king. "How could you make it happen?"The farmer replied, "It's very easy. I just cut off the branch where the falcon rested."It is always the same to human beings. We all have "two flying wings" in our hearts as well, but we often seem not to notice them and stay where we are just for safety and comfort. We don't realize we can fly so high and freely until the "branch" we are resting on breaks.（1）What did the king do after he got two falcons?A . He kept them on the branch of a tree.B .
