In fact, some researchers claim that less than half of a spoken messages real meaning is in the words used in the message. They say that most of a messages meaning comes from understanding how the speaker uses things like tone of voice and body language. Body language includes such things as the expression on the speakers face, gestures the speaker makes with his or her hands, and the position of the speakers body. Just as there are many different languages spoken around the world, there are many different ways for people to use body language, too. For example, gestures may imply different meanings in different cultures. Making a “thumbs up” sign in America means “Great!” However, in Arab cultures, this gesture is extremely offensive. And in India, if listeners want to show speakers that they understand, the listeners will move their heads from side to side. In many Western countries, a similar gesture means “no.” Although many gestures can be interpreted differently by different cultures, there are also many gestures that are almost universally interpreted the same way. For example, by and large a smile is understood as a sign of friendship or good will around the world. Also, using an open hand to gesture toward something is viewed as polite or friendly in most cultures. There are also some forms of body language that can be universally read with the meaning, “I am interested in you” or “I like you.” Sometimes this kind of body language is used unconsciously between two people. These signs of interest include standing or sitting with both feet flat on the ground, mirroring or using the same gestures as the other person, and turning ones body to fully face the other person. In addition, a persons pupils1will automatically become wider when they are interested in another person. Body language that can be read with the meaning, “I am not interested in you” or “I dont like you,” may include the following gestures: looking down or looking in another direction, leaning away from a person, crossing ones arms or legs, or tapping a foot or finger. Body language experts point out one important thing. The persons culture is only one factor that can influence his or her use of body language. The time and place where the body language is being used can have a lot to do with a persons body language. If the person has had a bad day or if a meeting takes place in a crowded place, the body language a person uses may be very different than under other circumstances. minutes seconds (440 words)1pupil 5pju:pl the black circle in the center of the eye 瞳孔Reading Comprehension 阅读理解Circle the letter of the best answer.1.
