Then choose the best answer (A, B,C, or D)to each question : Sometimes you know things about people the first time you see them, for example, that you want to be friends with them or that you don’t trust them. But perhaps this kind of intuition isn’t as hard to explain as it may seem. For instance, people give out body language signals all the time. The way you hold your body, head and arms tells people about your mood. If you hold your arms tightly at your sides, or fold them across your chest, people will generally feel that you are being defensive. Holding your head to one side shows interest in the other, while an easy, open posture indicates that you are self-confident .All this affects the way you feel about someone. Also, a stranger may remind you of a meeting with someone. This may be because of something as simple as the fact that he or she is physically similar to someone who treated you well or badly. Your feelings about a stranger could be influenced by a smell in the air that brings to mind a place where you were happy as a child. Since even a single word can bring back a memory such as that, you may never realize it is happening. 26. What does the word “open” in the passage most closely mean? A. not shut B. unlimited C. relaxed D. enlarged 27. What influences your impression of a person you meet the first time? A. intuition B. knowledge C. feeling D. familiarity 28. What one feels about a stranger may be influenced by something that ________ A. strengthen one’s past behaviours B. reminds one of one’s past treatment C. revives one’s past memories D. points to one’s childhood 29. What does the second paragraph discuss ? A. Meaning of signals one implies toward a stranger B. Factors that may influence one’s feeling about a stranger C. Factors that cause people to act differently D. How people usually behave to a stranger 30.

Read the passage below. Then choose the best answer (A, B,C, or D)to each question : In 1807 Noah Webster began his greatest work, An American Dictionary of the English language. In preparing the manuscript, he devoted ten years to the study of English and its relationship to other languages, and seven more years to the writing itself. Published in two volumes in 1828, An American Dictionary of the English Language has become the recognized authority for usage in the United States. Webster’s purpose in writing it was to demonstrate that the American language was developing distinct meanings, pronunciations, and spelling from those of British English. He is responsible for advancing simplified spelling forms: develop instead of the British form develope; theater and center instead of theatre and centre; color and honor instead of colour and honour. 46: When did Noah Webster begin his greatest work, An American Dictionary of the English language?
