The park is also home to diverse wildlife. During a guided tour, we 6 bison grazing peacefully in the meadows. Our guide warned us to keep a safe distance, as these animals can be 7 when threatened. We also spotted elk, bears, and various bird species, each 8 in its natural habitat.
One of the most impressive sights was the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. The 9 walls displayed brilliant colors—yellows, oranges, and reds—created by hot springs over thousands of years. Standing at the viewpoint, I felt 10 by the beauty before me.

Unit 4 Body Language
When I first arrived in Japan as an exchange student, I quickly discovered that body language could be a 1 of misunderstanding. What seemed natural to me often carried completely different meanings in this new culture.

Later, my host mother explained that in Japan, gifts are usually opened 4 , not in front of the giver. My directness had accidentally caused 5 .
Eye contact was another challenge. In my home country, looking someone in the eye shows confidence and 6 . However, in Japan, prolonged eye contact can be seen as aggressive or 7 . I had to learn to lower my gaze slightly when speaking to elders or teachers.

One valuable lesson came from observing bowing. The depth and 11 of a bow convey different levels of respect. A slight nod is casual, while a deep, long bow shows deep 12 . I practiced until I could perform this greeting appropriately.
Over time, I learned that body language is deeply rooted in culture. What is 13 in one country may be offensive in another. Rather than judging these differences, I tried to understand and 14 them. This open attitude helped me build meaningful 15 with people from diverse backgrounds.
