【课前预习】
了解不同国家的肢体语言文化差异
OK手势
可能在全世界使用最普及的手势，就是OK手势，当然，每个国家的表达含义，也许会有所差别，比如，在美国，就是“好的、同意”的意思，表示认可对方的观点，在多数国家也是这样的意思，不过，要是在南美的巴西，我建议你最好不要用这个手势，因为它代表了粗鲁的手势，甚至会给自己带来麻烦，这一点还是需要注意的。
“ V”形手势
在东亚或者东南亚的许多国家，人们都喜欢用V形手势，特别是女生在照相的时候，这表示一种可爱的意思，然而如果在英国，南非，澳大利亚的这些国家里，做相同的手势，但手背朝外时，这就变成了一种侮辱的含义，这也就是为什么，我们会在一些电影或者体育比赛中，有人很愤怒的做出这种手势，这就是文化方面的差别。
“失败者”的姿态
中国和美国的各个方面都有很大的不同，就连一些手势也是如此，比如“手势8”，如果在美国，表达的含义通常是一种嘲讽，意思是失败者很差劲，但在中国就会有所不同，因为8代表着幸运数字，当然也可以表达摆姿势耍酷，和手枪的样子，这个手势在中国更加的普及，美国则是很少用到！
竖起大拇指
竖起大拇指也是在世界上很普遍用到的手势，在多数的国家里，这个手势表达的都是正面的夸赞，意思是做得很棒，不过，如果去往西亚的伊拉克，伊朗，千万不要对当地人竖起大拇指，因为这是一种极其侮辱对方的含义，相当于“去你的，伙计”，可能会给自己带来不必要的危险，对于这样的巨大差异，想想还是很有趣的！
停止一下
手掌竖起掌心面对对方时，在美国的意思是等一会、停止一下，在希腊和巴基斯坦一部分地区，该手势则是侮辱的含义，而要是在马来西亚，可以用来和你认识的人打招呼，打电话给服务员，并向其他司机说谢谢，就连在过马路时也使用它，所以表达的意思还是挺多的，而如果你对此感兴趣，可以去往这些国家体验一下，但是一定要注意安全的！

二．任务型理解（20分）
　 Australia is one of the famous oceanic countries. The country is famous for its wool production and seashore tour. As the climate there is warm and comfortable, many people spend vacations there every year. I'm a super fan of water entertainment, so I choose it as my destination.
In Australia, the sky is bluer than blue and the clouds are whiter than white. All the local people enjoy an optimistic (乐观的)and active life. They also show their kindness and enthusiasm (热情)to the tourists. The first stop should be the Sydney Opera House which is among the most brilliant and splendid architectures (建筑物)in the world. Many world-class plays are put on in it. It is like a seashell with glorious decorations inside.
Then Melbourne is a good choice as the next stop. In Melbourne, the sun cream is a must to take with as the sunshine there may burn your skin. The most attractive thing to me is the Australian Open, which is one of the biggest world-class tennis competitions. Many great players such as Roddick, Federer and its local player Hewitt gather to compete. It's really a feast for the eyes.
Australia is also home to one of the most challenging and exciting surfing and diving projects. As we know, it is always called "a country riding on the back of the sheep". From the interesting saying, we can know something about its rich wool production. If you love animals, kangaroos and koalas are good company to you. So don't forget Australia when you plan a trip.
