16、不妨试试上面概括的一些技巧。04:53.30Text B04:54.92课文 B04:56.54Language04:58.12语言04:59.70when we want to tell other people what we think,05:02.22当我们要把自己的想法告诉别人时，05:04.74we can do it not only with the help of words,but also in many other ways.05:08.83我们不仅可以借助于词语，还可用许多其它方法。05:12.92For instance,We sometimes move our
17、heads up and down when we want to say yes05:16.94比方说，我们想说“是”的时候通常点点头；05:20.97and we move our heads from side to side when we want to sayno05:24.21而想说“不”的时候就摇摇头。05:27.44People who can neither hear nor speak (that is,deaf and dumb people)05:31.42那些既听不见也不能说的人（即聋哑人）05:35.39talk to each other with the he
18、lp of their fingers.05:38.12则用手势相互交谈。05:40.85People who do not understand each others language have to do the same.05:44.63人们彼此语言不通时也这么做。05:48.42The following story shows how they sometimes do it.05:51.35下面的故事就表现他们有时是这么做的。05:54.27An Englishman who could not speak Italian was once traveling in Italy.
19、05:57.96有一次，一位不会说意大利语的英国人曾在意大利旅行。06:01.64One day he entered a restaurant and sat down at a table.06:05.18一天他走进一家钣店并坐在一张桌旁。06:08.72When the waiter came,the Englishman opened his mouth,06:11.75当侍者走过来时，这位英国人张开嘴，06:14.78put his fingers in it,took them out again and moved his lips.06:18.66把手指放在嘴里，又拿了出来，并
20、动了动嘴唇。06:22.54In this way he meant to say, Bring me something to eat.06:26.22他想以此说，“给我拿点吃的来。”06:29.90The waiter soon brought him a cup of tea.06:32.63侍者很快给他端来一杯茶。06:35.36The Englishman shook his head and the waiter understood that he didnt want tea,06:39.75这位英国人摇摇头，侍者明白了他并不想要茶。06:44.14so he took it
21、away and brought him rome coffee.06:46.92于是他把茶端走又给他端来了咖啡。06:49.70The Englishman,who was very hungry by this time and not at all thirsty,06:53.53这位英国人这时已非常锇但一点也不渴，06:57.36looked very sad.06:59.40所以他看上去很不高兴。07:01.43He shook his head each time the waiter brought him something to drink.07:04.92侍者每次给他端来喝
22、的东西时，他都摇摇头。07:08.41The waiter brought him wine,then beer,07:11.53侍者给他端来了葡萄酒，接着是啤酒，07:14.65 then soda-water,but that wasnt food,of course.07:17.83然后是苏打水，可这些当然都不是吃的。07:21.00He was just going to leave the restaurant when another traveler came in.07:24.79他正要离开时，另一位旅客进来了。07:28.57When this man saw the wai
23、ter,he put his hands on his stomach.07:32.21这个人看到了侍者就把双手放到肚子上。07:35.84That was enough: in a few minutes07:38.71这就足够了：几分钟之后07:41.58there was a large plate of macaroni and meat on the table before him.07:45.32一大盘通心粉和肉就摆在了他面前。07:49.05As you see,the primitive language of signs is not always very clear.0
24、7:53.59可见，这种原始的确良手势语言不总是非常明确的。07:58.12The language of words is much more exact.08:01.35词语的语言要准确得多。08:04.57Words consist of sounds,08:07.21词语由声音组成08:09.85but there are many sounds which have a meaning and yet are not words.08:13.68然而有许多声音虽有一定的意义却不是词语。08:17.50For example,we may say Sh-sh-sh when we me
25、an keep silent.08:21.58例如，我们想说“保持安静”时就会说“嘘嘘嘘”。08:25.65When babies laugh,we know they are happy,08:28.49当婴儿笑时，我们知道他们很高兴。08:31.32and when they cry,we know they are iii or simply want something.08:34.59当他们哭时，我们知道他们病了或只是想要某个东西。08:37.85It is the same with animals.08:40.35动物也是这样。08:42.84When a dog says G-
26、r-r or a cat says F-f-f we know they are angry.08:47.41当一条狗发出，“Grr”的声音或一只猫发出“Fff”的声音时，我们知道它们生气了。08:51.98But these sounds are not language.08:54.66但是这些声音不是语言。08:57.34Language consists of words which we put together into sentences.09:01.06语言是由我们用于组成句子的词语组成的。09:04.78But animals can not do this:a dog ca
27、n say G-r-r when he means I am angry,09:08.96可是动物不会这么做么：狗想说“我生气了”时会叫“Grr”，09:13.14but he cannot say first I and then am and then angry.09:17.41但它不能说“我”，然后说“生气”，然后说“了”。09:21.68A parrot can talk like a man;09:23.87鹦鹉可以像人一样说话；09:26.05it can repeat whole sentences and knows what they mean.09:29.38它可以重复整句话，也知道这句话意思。09:32.71We may say that a parrot talks,but cannot say that it really speaks,09:36.84我们可以说鹦鹉学舌，但我们不能说它真正会说话，09:40.96because it cannot form new sentences out of the words it knows.09:44.93因为它不能用所知道的词语组成新的句子。09:48.90Only man has the power to do this.09:51.48只有人才有这种能力。
