In fact, it is believed that thevarious forms of body language contribute about 70 percent to our comprehension. Itis important to note, however, that body language varies in different cultures. Take forexample, eye movement. In the USA child is expected to look directly at parent orteacher who is scolding him/her. In other cultures the opposite is true. Looking directlyat teacher or parent in such situation is considered sign of disrespect.Trang 2/5 Mã thi 419ềAnother form of body language that is used differently, depending on the culture, isdistance. In North America people don't generally stand as close to each other as inSouth America. Two North Americans who don't know each other well will keep adistance of four feet between them, whereas South Americans in the same situationwill stand two to three feet apart. North Americans will stand closer than two feet apartonly if they are having confidential conversation or if there is intimacy between them.Gestures are often used to communicate. We point finger, raise an eyebrow, wave an arm– or move any other part of the body to show what we want to say. However, this does notmean that people all over the world use the same gestures to express the same meanings. Veryoften we find that the same gestures can communicate different meanings, depending on thecountry. An example of gesture that could be misinterpreted is sticking out the tongue. Inmany cultures it is sign of making mistake, but in some places it communicates ridicule.The dangers of misunderstanding one another are great. Obviously, it is not enough to learn the language of anotherculture. You must also learn its non-verbal signals if you want to communicate successfully.(Adapted from "Reading Academic English" by Judy Rapoport, Ronit Broder and Sarah Feingold)Question 28: What is the passage mainly about?A.

In the early years, green builders were small minority, andtheir goals of reducing the environmental impact of buildings were considered unrealistic. Now,however, the movement is growing, as builders have been able to take advantage of new technology.Green builders try to make use of recycled materials, which means less waste indumps. Also, they reduce environmental impact by reducing the energy requirementsof building. One way is to provide an alternative, non-polluting source of energy.First, with solar panels, it is possible to produce electricity from the rays of the sun.Once installed, they provide energy at no cost and with no pollution.Another solution is to reduce the amount of energy required in building. It is possibleto cut electricity use noticeably by improving natural lighting and installing low-energylight bulbs. To reduce the amount of fuel needed for heating or cooling, builders also addinsulation to the walls so that the building stays warmer in winter and cooler in summer.Trang 3/5 Mã thi 419ềOne example of this advanced design is the Genzyme Center of Cambridge, the mostenvironmentally responsible office building in America. Every aspect of the design andbuilding had to consider two things: the need for safe and pleasant workplace foremployees and the need to lessen the negative environmental impact. 75 percent of thebuilding materials were recycled materials, and the energy use has been reduced by 43percent and water use by 32 percent, compared with other buildings of the same size.In other parts of the world, several large-scale projects have recently beendeveloped according to green building principles. One of these is in Vauban, Germany,in an area that was once the site of army housing. The site has been completely rebuiltwith houses requiring 30 percent less energy than conventional ones. These houses,heated by special non-polluting systems, are also equipped with solar panels.A larger project is under way in China. The first phase of this project will include housesfor 400 families built with solar power, non-polluting bricks, and recycled wall insulation. In asecond phase, entire neighborhoods in six cities will be built. If all goes well, the Chinesegovernment plans to copy these ideas in new neighborhoods across China.Green building ideas, on small or large scale, are spreading. Individuals, companies, andgovernments are beginning to see their benefits. Not only are they environmentally friendly,green buildings improve living and working conditions and also save money in the long run.(Adapted from "Advanced Reading Power" by Beatrice S.
