一、阅读理解
Talking is easy. Ask people and they won't even remember how they started doing it. It just comes naturally. But body language makes everything difficult. It is a whole different thing when you're using your hands,eyes or head instead of your tongue. And what makes it even more difficult to understand is the fact that body language is different all around the world.
For example,in Japan bowing is the most common greeting. It shows respect. It is considered quite important in this country. Although children normally begin learning how to bow from a very young age,companies commonly provide training for their employees in how to bow correctly. And if you ever go to Morocco,be patient because greetings can last up to several minutes. Moroccans greet each other by shaking each other's right hand,and then touching their own forehead (额头). Doesn't that sound interesting? They can't wash their hands right away after greetings. That's because it is very impolite.
For most of us,nodding our heads up and down often means agreement—but not for the Bulgarians or Greeks. In their cultures,doing so actually means “no”. Do not touch any part of someone's body with your foot in Asia. It's considered the “lowest” part of the body there. Be sure to apologize if you do this by accident. You may touch the person's arm and then touch your own head.
Before you travel and have fun in a different culture,make sure you can understand different meanings of body language.
