When we communicate with others,verbal language is only one part of the message we send.
36 It can show our true feelings and attitudes even when we are not talking.It is estimated
that over 70%of the information in face-to-face communication is passed on through non-verbal
signals rather than words.
37 They are closely connected to our emotions and can be easily understood by others.
For example,a smile can show friendliness and approval,while a frown often signals
dissatisfaction or confusion.Unlike some gestures that are tied to certain cultures,many facial
expressions are universal.Studies show that people from different cultures can easily recognize
emotions like happiness,sadness,anger and fear through facial expressions.
Gestures,another key part of body language,differ a lot across cultures.A gesture that is
polite in one culture may be rude in another.In many Western countries,a thumbs-up means
“well done'”or“okay”,but in some Middle Eastern and Asian countries,it is considered rude
Similarly,waving goodbye is common worldwide but the hand speed and position can have
different meanings.38
Posture and eye contact also add much to the message we send.A straight posture usually
shows confidence and respect.39 Eye contact is also a strong form of non-verbal
communication.Keeping proper eye contact shows that you are listening carefully.However,too
much eye contact can seem aggressive (in some cultures while avoiding it may be seen
as shyness or dishonesty in others.
In conclusion,body language is an unavoidably necessary tool for effective communication.
40 By noticing both our own body language and that of others,we can better understand the
real meaning behind words and build stronger relationships with people around us.
A.Verbal language is often less important than body language.
B.Different gestures have the same meaning in most countries.
C.In fact,body language plays a key role in human interaction.
D.Instead,hanging shoulders may suggest laziness or lack of interest.
E.So,knowing such cultural differences is key to proper communication.
F.It helps us express ourselves more clearly and understand others better
G.Facial expressions are among the most easily seen forms of body language.
