• 3．One of the simplest and the most effective forms of communication involves nothing more than the movement of facial muscles.What am I talking about？Smiling！Everyone understands what a smile means，and everyone also understands what a frown means.In fact，these two basic facial expressions can be recognized across countries，across the world and across the globe，regardless of the language spoken or the culture lived in.
     Moreover，hugs are so beautiful！When you give someone a hug or someone comes up and gives you a hug，this simple act of a hug can "speak" volumes（清楚表明） about how much you care for the other person，how much love you want to share with the other person，how much you have missed the other person.This hug has so much to say，and yet there never has to be any words spoken.
     And，who needs to say the words "yes" or "no" when a movement of the head says the same thing？These basic examples show just how powerful body language can be.Just knowing how to read and use body language effectively makes it really easy to see why it is not always a bad thing to be lost for words.
     Body language in the world of love is a very common thing and sometimes the only thing.And，most of the time，body language is the very first words "spoken" before any words.The old saying is "love at first sight"，not "love at first word"．Across a crowded room，their eyes meet and linger，he winks at her，and she raises an eyebrow.The connection is made without any words needed.These displays of body language say it all.In fact，sometimes they can say more than words can.
  
  （1）How many kinds of body language are mentioned in the first two paragraphs？

  
  A．Two.
  B．Three.
  C．Four.
  D．Five.

      It was raining pretty hard on Halloween，but that wasn't going to stop my little sister Kate and me from trick-or-treating.We decided to start at Miss Parson's house.Miss Parson was loved by us kids who lived nearby because she often shared her self-made cookies with us.We usually finished them in a second，especially when we were hungry after class.Sometimes，when we visited her or did something for her，she always gave us surprise.
      Kate and I wondered what kinds of treats she'd offer.As we walked down the street，I held an umbrella，a bag for candy，and my sister's hand.Jack-o-Lanterns gave soft light along the street.Spider webs hung in all the windows.Parents who were dressed up like monsters（怪物） stood in doorways.After we had walked a few blocks，we were wet from head to toes，and I felt Kate was trembling with cold.
      There was a light on at Miss Parson's house，but there were no ghosts，goblins（小妖精），or Jack-o-Lanterns.We climbed up the steps and saw Miss Parson through a window.She was drinking a cup of hot tea.
      "Maybe she doesn't celebrate Halloween，" Kate said with a sigh，disappointedly.
      "Well，even if she doesn't，she usually likes it when we visit her，" I said and knocked on the door.
      Miss Parson seemed surprised when she opened it and saw our dressing."Is today Halloween？" she asked."I completely forgot.I am so sorry！"
      Paragraph 1：
      Miss Parson rushed us into her house.________
      Paragraph 2：
      The next morning，a hot and sweet discussion about Miss Parson and Halloween spread among us kids.________
