A handshake is one of the most common ways to greet others, but US President Donald Trump’s unusual method has been put under the microscope lately.
Much like an arm wrestler in a match, the recently-elected leader has a habit of yanking (猛拉) people’s hands toward himself during handshakes. And while a typical handshake is only brief, the one between him and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Feb 10 lasted a full 19 seconds.
Simply having a strong hand is not the explanation here. According to Darren Stanton, a body language expert from the UK, while handshakes are usually an exchange of kindness, Trump uses his as a way to show power and control, regardless of how uncomfortable it makes people. “It is as if to say, ‘Hey, I’m in charge, don’t mess with me,’ ” Stanton told The Independent.
Apart from Trump’s “yank-shake”, there are other ways people display power with their hands. At business talks or political meetings, for example, some people may rotate (旋转) their wrists during handshakes so that their hand ends up on top instead of underneath. Some may squeeze so hard that it leaves the other person’s hand in pain.
According to Stanton, by pulling people into his personal space, Trump is also testing whether they are willing to cooperate with him. “For example, if someone was resistant to being yanked towards him and stood their ground, he would know that he has work to do with them before he got what he wanted,” Stanton told Express.
This is probably why on Feb 13 when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited the White House, all eyes were on how he was going to handle Trump’s handshake. Fortunately, Trudeau managed to avoid the embarrassment by grabbing Trump’s shoulder to stop himself being pulled in. Afterward, some Twitter users wrote that this proved Trudeau’s strong leadership, with one even calling the moment “one of Canada’s greatest victories”.
Vice magazine summed up the exchange between the two leaders as: “... no regular handshake. This was the first shot in a bloodless war.”
1.According to Darren Stanton, Trump uses his “yank-shake” to _____.
a. show his kindness
b. gain control
c. remind people of his status
d. see if people are cooperative
e. get people to lower their guard
A. bcd B. abc
C. ace D. bde
2.The phrase “stood their ground” in Paragraph 5 probably means _____.
A. going ahead B. standing still
C. turning around D. pulling out
3.According to the text, the way Trudeau reacted to Trump’s handshake _____.
A. annoyed Trump B. displayed his power
C. was considered rude D. was likely to start a war
4.What can be concluded from the text?
A. Some people spin their wrists during handshakes to show extra respect.
B. Handshakes are the most preferable way for political leaders to greet others.
C. The way someone shakes another person’s hand can have different meanings.
D. The longer two people shake their hands, the better their relationship is.

科目：高中英语 来源：河北省2017届高三（承智班）下学期（5-15）英语周练试卷 题型：阅读理解
I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people kept asking me stories about what it’s like to work in a field under the control of men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the existence of the universe, the shape of space time and the nature of black holes.
At 19, when I began studying astrophysics(天体物理学), it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D. at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the problem started to bother me. My every achievement—jobs, research papers, awards—was viewed from the angle of gender (性别) politics. So were my failures.
Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would finally become my reply to any and all provocations(挑衅): I don’t talk about that any more. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender problems. Why should removing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory.
Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how many of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don’t take no notice of those concerns. Still, I don’t tell them “war” stories. Instead, I have given them this: the scene of their physics professor heavily pregnant (怀孕）doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that’s a sight worth talking about.
1.Why doesn’t the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again?
A. She feels unhappy working in the scientific field.
B. She finds space research more important.
C. She is not good at telling stories of the kind.
D. She is tired of the sexism in scientific field.
2.From Paragraph 2, we can infer that people would think the author’s failures were due to __.
A. her over-confidence as a female astrophysicist
B. her involvement in gender politics
C. the very fact that she is a woman
D. the burden she bears in a male-leading society
3.Why does the author feel great satisfaction when talking about her class?
A. Female students no longer have to bother about gender issues.
B. Her students’ performance has brought back her confidence.
C. More female students are going in for science than before.
D. Her female students can do just as well as male students.
4.What does the image(形象) that the author presents to her students suggest?
A. Women can balance a career in science and having a family.
B. Women have more barriers on their way to academic success.
C. Women students needn’t have the concerns of her generation.
D. Women now have fewer problems going in for a science career.

"I didn't hear them call my name," explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (AT) as she talked about that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004. "Are you ready?" is what she heard. Then she said, "I shook my head no, and then they said 'yes' and it was announced again."
It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana -- she was still on cloud nine.
"I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen." Present in the audience that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher.
Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete. "She's always been my role model. I've danced with her since I was six. She's been through so many difficulties and came through them all. I've learned to get over bad life's experiences and learned how to move on because of her."
One of those bad life's experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get through the rough days. She said, "I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot..."
As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Shelley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.
When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don't let anyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it is easy to be yourself."
1.What do the words "on cloud nine" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. frightened B. troubled
C. very happy D. very angry
2.Shelley takes her dance teachers as a role model mainly because she is ________.
A. determined B. friendly
C. strict D. experienced
3.What suggestion does Shelley give to the teens?
A. Be yourself with the support of friends.
B. Meet friends whenever possible.
C. Go easy on yourself and others.
D. Have a good role model.
