Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot.
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting (调情,卖弄风情) °r indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people.
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.
The best summarization of the passage might be "______".
选项
A、Nonlinguistic language is invaluable to foreigners
B、Everybody uses only one form of communication
C、Although other forms of communication exist verbalization is the fastest
D、When language is a barrier, people will find other forms of communication
答案
D
解析
本题属于对文章中心思想提问的要旨题。本文的结构安排是:第一段提出了当人们的主要交流方式——口语发生障碍时,人们采用信号语言进行交流;第二段说明肢体语言的作用及方式;第三段介绍其他的几种非语言的交流方式;最后一段进行概括性的总结。由此我们可以得出本文的中心思想应该是选项D。其他三个选项都与文章内容不符。
