In a small village，there was a wise old man named Ryan.One day his young nephew Keith came to visit him.Keith was sad and upset about his little progress in learning the guitar.However hard he tried，he just couldn't improve.
Keith asked his uncle for advice."Follow me，"said Ryan，and he led Keith up to the high hills around the village.This road was long and difficult but Keith followed.As they got higher，Ryan said he needed to reach the top of the highest hill he had never been to.Keith was surprised but decided to help.
With great difficulty，Keith helped his uncle climb.Sometimes he even carried the old man on his back.At the top，sweating，he put his uncle on the ground and laughed with joy.

We are always using body language in our daily lives.When we have a conversation with someone，we may use more body language than words.However，the same body language may mean different things in different countries.That's why people sometimes cannot understand each other.
Pointing to one part of the body can have different meanings in different cultures.For example，in the US，people point to their heads when they think someone is clever.However，in Europe，it means"He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head".In our Chinese culture，nodding our heads up and down means"yes"and shaking our heads from side to side means"no".However，in some parts of India，Greece and Turkey，they mean just the opposite.
In Britain and the US，when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb and the second finger，it means"Everything is all right".However，if we do this in France or Belgium，it means"You are worth zero".In Greece or Turkey，we should not make this gesture.If we do，people will think we're very rude.
The meaning of gestures can also change over time.In the1960s，the"V"sign meant"peace".However，during World War II，it meant"victory".In Greece，it is an insulting sign.It will be very rude of you to make this gesture in front of a woman.
Even though the meaning of body language is different，there are some expressions with the same meaning throughout the world，such as smiling and crying.
26.What do people in Europe mean when they point to their heads？ ______
A. Somebody is smart. B. Somebody is friendly.
C. Somebody is foolish. D. Somebody is healthy.
