such as “What did you have at the picnic？” But an open­ended question paired with a gesture, briefly meaning a juice box, is treated like a detailed question.

　　That is, children become likely to answer falsely.

　　And it isn't just a few kids: 77% of children gave at least one piece of false information when a detail was suggested by an ordinary gesture.

　　Gestures may also become more popular when talking with non­fluent language users, such as little kids, Broaders said, as hand movements can impart meaning of unfamiliar words and phrases. “It certainly seems reasonable that adults would gesture more with children.”

　　In general, Broaders advises parents and other adults to “try to be aware of your hands when questioning a child about an event. Otherwise, you might be getting answers that don' t reflect what actually happened.”

　　本文是一篇说明文。手势语在一定程度上会增加相互间的理解，然而，它也有消极的作用，即误导对方，尤其是会误导孩子。本文探索了其中的原因。

　　5．According to the text, gestures ________.

　　A. have not any function at all

　　B．are rarely used by people

　　C．have certain effect on children

　　D．are often used by social workers

　　答案：C　细节理解题。文章第一段就已经提出手势语对孩子有影响，而全文都在说明这一观点，故答案选C。
