问题     Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, the 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 or 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 feeling.
How many different forms of communication are mentioned here?

选项 A、5.
B、7.
C、9.
D、11.

答案C

解析 根据文章第三段“Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille(a system of raiseddots read with the fingertips),signal flags,Morse code,and smoke signals.Road maps and picture signs also guide,warn,and instruct people.”可知,第三段中提到其他非语言的交流方式有六种,加上前文提到的肢体语言、口语、拼写三种,文中总共提到的交流方式有九种。据此判断,答案是C。
