When we do not understand each others language, we can talk with the help of body language.
A Frenchman was once traveling in England. He couldn’t speak English at all. One day he went into a
restaurant and sat down at a table. When the waiter came, he opened his mouth, put his fingers in it and took them
out again. He wanted to say, “Bring me something to eat. The waiter soon brought him a cup of tea. The man
moved his head from side to side. The waiter understood him and took the tea away. In a moment he came again
with a cup of coffee and put it on the table. The man again refused his offer. He shook his head whenever the
waiter brought him something to drink, because drinks are not food. When the man was going away, another man
came in. This man saw the waiter, and he put his hands on his stomach. That was enough. In a few minutes there
was a large plate of meat and vegetables on the table in front of him.
So you see, we can understand the language of signs as well as we can understand the language of words.

17-year-old Mariella has dual () citizenship between the U.S. and the U.K.
At the start of COVID-19, she happened to be in New York, and couldn’t leave due to travel
restrictions.Getting up at dawn to go to online school back in England meant she had abundant time for her own
use in the afternoons, then she began learning American Sign Language (ASL).The teen thought seeing an ASL
interpreter in action might help her learnfaster but when she looked up movies and TV shows on streaming
platforms, she discovered they didn’t use ASL interpreters.Mariella decided then and there to change that fact!
Seeking help from ASL teachers and the deaf community, she created Sign Up, an app that uses a simple
Google Chrome extension.It adds an ASL interpreter to the corner of movies so people who are deaf can watch
both at the same time.
The teen decided to focus her efforts first on the Disney + platform because that’s what she believes children
watch the most. “My sister and I were its crazy movie watchers when we were younger, and I couldn’t imagine
that not being a part of our childhood,” Mariella said.
With over 1,000 users in less than two weeks, the response has been nothing short of that. “I didn’t think it
would take off so much,” Mariella said. “I thought maybe a couple dozen people would use it, but I’ve had 20,
000 hits on my website and just so many shares and likes. It’s just blown up in ways I didn’t think it would.”
To cover her development and hiring costs, she has started a GoFundMe campaign, which has raised nearly  
$1 ,000 of its  $10,000 goal. Mariella plans to expand the app to include as many of the international sign
languages as possible. “My hope is that we’ ll have a lot more movies interpreted-it’ll be on every platform,” she
said.
4What made Mariella learn ASL?
AHer dual citizenship. BHer travel restrictions.
CHer enough free time. DHer need to study online.
5What do we know about Mariella?
AShe was once a huge Disney fan. BShe suffered hearing loss as a kid.
CShe’s earned much from SignUp. DShe’s living in a deaf community.
6What does Mariella think of the SignUp users’ responses?
AUnreal. BUnexpected.
CUnreasonable. DUnsatisfactory.
7Which word best describes Mariella as the SignUp developer?
ACautious. BDemanding. CHonest. DAmbitious.

Koko the gorilla knew over 1,000 signs based on American Sign Language, and used them to do everything
from asking for food to joking around. Her trainer and long-term companion, Penny Patterson, thought Koko went
further still, signing in novel ways and showing complex emotions. According to Ms Patterson, when a cat that
Koko loved was killed in an accident, Koko signed: Cat, cry, have-sorry, Koko-love.” When Koko died last
month, some of her obituaries (讣告) mourned the gorilla who had “mastered American sign language.”
Then came the backlash, from linguists and experts in sign languages. Sign languages have complex
grammars, equivalent to spoken tongues in expressiveness. Koko’s ability, it was pointed out, fell well short of a
fluent human signer. Moreover, Ms Patterson was her interpreter, a role that invited the question of how much she
was inferring what Koko “must have meant,” and explaining away random signs. It was hard to be sure: Ms
Patterson preferred speaking to journalists over sharing her video and raw data about Koko with fellow
researchers.
There is no doubt that animals communicate. Animals from one region can share sounds that differ from
groups in another, leading researchers to talk of animal “dialects.” Then there are the remarkable achievements of
Koko and her primate predecessors, including a chimp delightfully named Nim Chimpsky. Yet there is an
important distinction between communication and language. Take the misleading term “body language.” It is
sometimes claimed that words convey just 7% of meaning, and that body language and tone of voice do the rest.
This wildly overstretches an old study which found that most emotional messaging as opposed to the
propositional kind comes from tone and body language, especially when a neutral word such as “maybe” was
used. But try conveying a fact like It will rain on Tuesday” with your eyebrows, and the difference becomes
clear. Language allows for clear statements, questions and commands.
Nim Chimpsky’s near-namesake, Noam Chomsky, has argued that people have a kind of universal
grammar”, and that all humankind’s languages are mere variations on a theme. Mr Chomsky has changed his
mind repeatedly on what constitutes the core of human language, but one obvious candidate is syntax — rules, not
just words, which allow the construction of a huge variety of meaningful utterances (). This capacity
may even be infinite. Any statement in English, for example, can be made longer by adding “He said that …” at
the beginning. This property is called recursion: a simple statement (“It’s cold”) is embedded in a more
complicated one (“He said that it’s cold”). Human syntax also allows for hypotheticals (“If she hadn’t arrived
…”), talking precisely about events distant from the present, and so much more.
