D.These gestures are so natural that we rarely think about them.
E.Some common patterns are still widely accepted in most countries.
F.It does not always mean agreement，but rather"I am paying attention."
Have you ever thought that a simple nod or shake of the head could cause misunderstanding？（1）______ Even worse，these common gestures can even make you doubt your own ways of expression when you are misunderstood by others.
In most Western countries and China，nodding the head up and down means"yes"or agreement.Shaking the head from side to side means"no"or disagreement.（2）______ Parents are happy when their babies learn these gestures correctly.
However，this pattern is not followed everywhere.In some cultures，the meanings are totally different.For example，in parts of India，Bulgaria and Greece，nodding actually means"no"and shaking the head means"yes."（3）______ Tourists often feel confused when locals seem to disagree with everything they say.This can lead to funny or even awkward situations in restaurants and shops.

Acting in front of many people can be scary.But at Beijing New Oriental Foreign Language School at Yangzhou，Jiangsu province，the drama teaching and arts course helps students feel braver.
