Who Is James Bond?
The latest Bond flm is an enormous box ofiec (票房) hit. But who is James Bond? Where does he come from? Author lan Fleming, the creator of James Bond, told us something about the origins of the world’s most famous secret agent.
In the first Bond novel, lan Fleming told us that James Bond was the son of a Scottish father and an Asian mother. But perhaps this was not really true. The title of the 19th Bond film,“The World Is Not Enough,” was based on the Latin motto of the Bond famil, which is mentioned in one of the early novels. However, it now appears that the motto is not that of the Scottish Bonds, but that of a dfferent Bond famil, who came from England. So perhaps Bond is English, not Scottish.
Bond went to Eton College, the same school as his creator lan Fleming. This is a school where young people learn how to move in high society, like Bond does so well.
After leaving school, Bond did not go to university. He joined the British Secret Service. He soon got promoted to the top. From then on he was 007, “Iicensed to kll”, and so began a career which would take him to all the cormers of the earth.
In the early days, Bond’s role was quite clear. He was working for the West. His main Cold War, the role of the Service has changed, and Bond’s job profile has changed with it. Now his main enemies are the big bosses of organized crime and intermational terrorism.
Unlike the Cold War, organized crime is unlikely to come to an end. We can therefore be sure that James Bond, the best-known English fictional hero of the 20th century, has many more adventures ahead of him.

第二部分:阅读下面短文，请从短文后所给各题的4个选项(A、B. C、D)中选出1个最佳选项，并在答题纸相应位置上将该项涂黑。
Universal Gestures
Gestures for victory, defeat and stress are almost the same in all countries.
On the front page of a newspaper we often see the picture of people holding their head in shock. People put their hands on their head or over their mouth when they look on a scene with shock or horror.
Chris Ulrich is an expert on body language. He said that covering your mouth or putting your hands on your head helps make you feel safer from a perceived threat. By covering part of your face you can feel hidden from the shocking event. Aditinally these reactions can help a person comnfort himself through touch. Urich said it is a self comforing gesture to help people in the moment.
In times of strong anxiety, people will twist their hands to calm themselves. Ulrich said it is a reaction people often have when they are in font of an audience or nervous.“I’s a comfort for them that they’ll get through it,” said UIrich. He relates that gesture to a parent trying to calm a child.
Most athletes react to victories or defeats with specific behaviors. A 2008 study examined pictures of judo (柔道) competitors during the 2008 Olympic Games. They were from different countries, but they showed similar behaviors when they won a match. The winners would throw their head back or raise their hands in triumph. Ulrich said these victory behaviors are a way winners“explode” out and take up more space.
However, if an athlete suffers a loss, he will act in a way that makes him physically smaller, such as hanging his head.“When you lose, you want to disappear,” said UIrich. The study also found that the judo competitors had the same behavior when they lost.
11. People put their hands over their mouth to
A. avoid a danger
B. gain self-comfort
C. hide their shock
D. show their anxiety
12. People tend to twist their hands when they are,
A. depressed
