It includes facial expressions, gestures, eye contact and posture. We can know a lot about people’s feelings from their body language. In many East Asian countries, it is not polite to look directly into someone’s eyes when you talk to them, especially to the old or people in higher positions. It shows respect. But in Western countries, looking into a person’s eyes during a conversation is necessary. It shows that you are listening carefully and are interested in the talk. Gestures also have different meanings in different cultures. For example, the “thumbs up” gesture means “good” or “well done” in most Western countries. But in some Middle Eastern countries, it is a very rude gesture. Smiling is a universal body language. It almost means the same thing all over the world—friendliness and happiness. When you smile to others, you can make them feel warm and welcome. Understanding different body language is very important. It helps us communicate better and avoid misunderstandings when we talk with people from different cultures. ( )1.What is NOT included in body language according to the passage? A. Facial expressions. B. Words. C. Gestures. D. Eye contact. ( )2.In East Asian countries, looking directly into the old’s eyes is ________. A. polite B. rude C. necessary D. friendly ( )3.The “thumbs up” gesture means ________ in most Western countries. A. rude B. good C. angry D. unhappy ( )4.Which body language is universal according to the passage? A. Bowing. B. Shaking hands. C. Smiling. D. Crossing arms. ( )5.The passage mainly tells us ________. A. the importance of body language B. how to use gestures C. different cultures in Western countries D. how to communicate with foreigners B When you communicate with others, you can use not only words but also body language. It can help you express your feelings better. Here are some common body language and their meanings: · Sitting up straight shows that you are interested in the conversation and are polite. · Leaning forward means you are listening carefully and want to know more. · Crossing your arms may show that you are angry or not open to others’ ideas. · Looking away may mean you are not interested in the talk or are thinking about something else. · Nodding your head means you agree with others, while shaking your head means you disagree. However, body language can be different in different cultures. So when you are in a foreign country, you should learn about their body language first. It can help you get on well with the local people and avoid making silly mistakes. ( )6.Sitting up straight shows that you are ________.

Now I want to tell you something about Chinese body language. In China, we usually shake hands when we meet people for the first time. We bow a little to show respect to the old. When talking with others, we don’t always look directly into their eyes, especially to our elders or teachers, because it’s a way to show respect. Nodding heads means agreement. We don’t point at others with fingers, as it’s impolite. Smiling is always good and makes people friendly. I hope these tips will help you. Welcome to China! Yours, Li Hua 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
