　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　Since animals think in pictures, one can "talk" to them without words. For example, there are hand signals that convey everything from "sit" to "I'll be back soon."

　　In dog language, being petted (抚摸) on top of the head by a stranger is an aggressive act. Try a more calm approach; crouch down (蹲下) or stand with your side turned to the dog, don't make eye contact for very long, keep words to a whisper and wait for the dog to approach you. Then pet the side closest to you. Never reach over a dog. If you decide to touch a dog's head, it is much nicer to go for the side of the face or under the chin.

　　Calming signals are used in most dog­to­dog interactions to avoid or end conflict. If we understand these often gestures, we have a better chance of being sympathetic and living in harmony with dogs.

　　Has your dog ever yawned (打哈欠), and you thought he was tired? Well, yawning is generally a calming signal. The dog is trying to tell another dog or his human that the moment is too intense - for example, when we play or train too hard with our dogs and everyone needs a break.

　　Here are some other common calming signals：

　　Turning the head to avoid eye contact when meeting. This is like saying, "Nothing to worry about here."

　　Nose licking, scratching or refusal to look in your direction. These are often used to let people know they are petting, playing or training too intensely. Take a break or change your approach.

　　Hip or butt bump. These say, "I like and trust you." or "Would you mind scratching my back！"

　　Cocking head from side to side. Dogs may do this when they hear a strange noise or when you try to tell them a story. It means something like, "I'm not quite sure I understand."
