How is the body language mentioned in the text interpreted in China
People favour shaking hands, nodding the head when they meet someone else.
2. Can you think of an example of body language that is appropriate in China but might be misunderstood in another culture
In China, shaking one’s head means “no”, and nodding means “yes”. By comparison, in Bulgaria and southern Albania, the gestures have the opposite meaning.

It would be a good idea to pay attention to the social distance when coming to China. As you can see here, the social distance is quite different here than it is in the West.
Within 0.5 meter: distance between family members
0.5 ~ 1.5 meters: distance between close friends
1.5 ~ 3 meters: distance between acquaintances
More than 3 meters: distance in public areas

I pretend to smile at my parents after I obtain low scores in my exams to avoid a scolding（责骂） from them or their worry about me.
2. Apart from fake smiles, is there any other kind of body language that can sometimes be fake
Yes. For example, Chinese idioms（习语） “crocodile（鳄鱼） tears” and “a cat crying over a mouse’s death” mean that a person is in tears or crying with faked sadness or sympathy for another person.
