阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
People of different nationalities seem to vary in their use of hand gestures, according to a study that seems to support the idea that Italians, in particular, “talk with their hands”.
Maria Graziano and her colleague Marianne Gullberg, both at Lund University in Sweden, asked 12 people from Sweden and 12 from Italy to describe a video from the children's TV show Pingu to a friend who hadn't seen it, while examining their gestures. In the study, the Italians made an average of 22 gestures per 100 words of their speech, compared with the Swedes' 11.
But more interesting was the difference in the function of the gestures, says Graziano. The Swedes mostly used “referential gestures” to demonstrate the events of the story or the characters' actions, for example showing a rolling pin(擀面杖) when describing baking. The Italians made these gestures as well, but also had more “pragmatic gestures” with which they commented on the story or introduced new information, such as a hand movement to indicate a new character.
Currently, Barbara Tversky at Stanford University in California says that exactly why these results occurred is unclear, and she wants to see further research in larger groups of people with a more diverse mix of nationalities. A possible explanation is that different cultures' understanding and explanation of short videos could lead to varying ways of organizing speech content and impact gesturing.
Also, Graziano hopes to study the gestures used in different texts, and with different relationships between the speakers, to explore how various cultures use gestures to communicate and tell a story. “Gestures are produced in all languages and cultures, and they are not a mere decoration of speech; they are closely related to what we are saying and how we want to say it,” Graziano concluded.
1.How did the participants complete the experiment?
A. By giving a description of a video.
B. By telling a story without speaking.
C. By writing a summary for a TV show.

2.Graziano found that Italians performed more “pragmatic gestures” when they ______.
A. explained complex events
B. showed actions of the characters
C. expressed their own opinions
D. acted out an object like a rolling pin
3.Who will be involved in Tversky's further research?
A. People of various age groups.
B. People from all walks of life.
C. People with different hobbies.
D. People from more countries.
4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
