Ⅲ. 阅读理解。
阅读短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个与短文内容相符的最佳选项。
You speak, write a letter and make a phone call. Your words carry a message. People communicate（交流）with words. Do you think you can communicate without words? A smile（微笑）on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears（泪水）in your eyes tell others that you are sad.
When you put up your hands in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake your head, and people know you are saying “No”. You nod（点头）and people know you are saying “Yes”. Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the door helps you know where to go in or out. Have you ever thought that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawing to tell beautiful mountains, the blue sea and many other things. Books are written to tell about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas. Books, magazines（杂志）, TV, radio and films all help us communicate with others. They can help us know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.

26. 细节理解题。作者开篇第一句就列举了“说话、写信、打电话”三个日常场景，通过举例子的方式引出“语言承载信息，人们用语言交流”的话题，符合题意。
27. 细节理解题。文中既介绍了语言类的交流方式，也介绍了微笑、手势等肢体非语言交流、标识传递信息、画作、书籍杂志等多种交流途径，原文明确提到"People can communicate in many other ways"，说明人们可以用许多不同的方式交流。A选项“仅用语言”表述错误，C、D选项都只是交流方式的其中一部分，表述过于片面。
28. 细节理解题。文章末尾明确提到了书籍、杂志、电视、广播和电影，全文没有提及报纸（Newspapers），符合题意。
29. 细节理解题。文章最后一句点明交流的作用：“They can help us know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.”，A选项完整涵盖该内容，C选项只提到其中一部分，B、D的相关内容文中没有提及。
30. 主旨大意题。全文围绕不同的交流方式展开，依次介绍了语言交流、肢体非语言交流、标识传递信息、各类媒介辅助交流等内容，核心主题是交流的不同方式，D选项作为标题最贴合全文内容。
