阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Throughout the history of mankind, people have been communicating with body languages. In many  (situation), the way you say something is far more important than what you say. (communicate) better with others, you are expected to pay attention to eye contact. It can signal friendliness or unfriendliness, interest or boredom, and understanding or confusion.

In Western cultures, keeping eye contact in conversations is (particular) important. As a matter fact, a westerner might consider a lack of eye contact as a lack of interest. In Spain, Italy and Greece, people stand close together talking to each other, eye contact is more frequent and lasts  (long).

In many Asian cultures, avoiding direct eye contact is one of the ways to show respect. It is done during the talk with anyone older. Habits like this can cause problems when people do not understand  (they). For example,  Asian might close his eyes in concentration or look down while  (listen) to a speaker. A Western speaker might think the man is not interested.

However, in both West and East, totally avoiding eye contact might be considered a lack of politeness, but staring at others is also considered rude and should (avoid).

    There was once a {#blank#}1{#/blank#}distinguish king whose name was Tamerlane. Like Alexander the Great, he wished to become one of the masters of the whole world. So he raised a great army and made war on other countries. He conquered many kings and occupied many cities. But with his army{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (beat) at last, Tamerlane escaped alone from the field of battle, looking{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(misery)

    For a long time he wandered in fear from place to place. His enemies were looking for him. He was about to lose all hope. One day lying under a tree, he thought of his failure. Feeling discouraged, he supposed that he couldn't carry on any longer. Suddenly he saw a small object climbing up the trunk (树干) of the tree. He looked more closely and saw an ant and a grain of wheat{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(carry) by it.

There was a hole in the tree only a little way above, and that was the home of the ant. “You are brave, Mr.Ant,” he said, “but you are carrying something that is too heavy for you.” Just as he spoke, the ant lost its footing and fell to the ground. But it still held on to the grain of wheat. Tamerlane watched the little insect. It tried the second time. The twentieth time—but always{#blank#}5{#/blank#}vain. “I am{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (awful) sorry for you.” Tamerlane thought. He had some doubt {#blank#}7{#/blank#}the ant could succeed or not. Then it tried the twenty-first time. Slowly, one little step at a time, it climbed across the rough place at{#blank#}8{#/blank#}it had fallen so often. The next minute it climbed safely into its home, carrying the grain of wheat. His constant efforts paid off. “Well done!” said Tamerlane, “you've taught me a lesson. I, too, will try, try again, till I succeed.” He {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(set) about reorganizing his army. And at last he realized his ambition{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(defeat) once or twice doesn't matter too much. What matters much is to lose heart forever.
