a. the v sign was first used by winston churchill.b. italians often use the thumbs-up to praise others.c. you are most likely to see the corna in a heavy metal music concert. d. the a-ok and the thumbs-up have the same meaning to divers.59. if you travel abroad, you d better not use the v sign in _.a. greece or italy b. germany or japanc. ireland or italy d. spain or brazilb the 1960 presidential debates between vice president nixon and kennedy were the first nationally televised de-bates in presidential campaign history. 70 million voters were given the opportunity to not only hear the candidates (候选人), but to compare them as well. surprisingly, there was a big difference between the tv viewers and the radio listeners. while the radio listeners clearly thought that nixon had won the first debate, the television viewers were impressed by kennedys smile, charm and athletic appearance. now lets think about some other situations: what if a baseball manager knew the opposing teams signals and were able to anticipate (预期)their game plan? likewise, as a professional salesperson, you would be wise to notice your customersbody language and adjust your presentation accordingly. top salespeople recognize the importance of non-verbal communication. they understand that one of the easiest and most effective ways to close sales is to be aware of their customersbuy signals. in addition to monitoring your customersbody language, its important to be mindful of your own gestures and keep them positive. remember to unfold your arms, uncross your legs, nod your head in agreement and smile frequently. matching and mirroring your body language gestures is a way of telling another that you like them and agree with them. the psychological principle behind matching and mirroring is that people want to do business with salespeople that they believe are similar to them. in 1872, charles darwin published the book the expressions in man and animals and launched the modern study of non-verbal communication. actually, it is a mixture of movement, posture and tone of voice.60. the example of the 1960 presidential debates is used to show _.a. the presidential debates were always fierceb. the debates always attracted a wide audiencec. the voters paid more attention to the candidatesdebating skillsd. the votersopinions were affected by the candidatesnon-verbal communication61. salespeople can close sales effectively because they can _.a. perform body language wellb. notice their customersbody languagec. adjust their body language to their customers d. understand what their customersare saying62. charles darwin wrote the book the expressions in man and animals to _.a. report his research on body languageb. conclude man can learn a lot from animalsc. teach people how to communicate with animalsd. show the big difference between man and animals c in the us and canada winter swimmers are called polar bears, but in finland theyre just called finns. why and how do people swim in near-freezing water during the winter?
