HOW DO WE COMMUNICATE?
More than half of what we communicate is communicated not through words but through body language. This includes our posture, facial expressions, and gestures. Because body language is so important, you'll want to know what yours is saying and how to interpret other peoples, too. Here are some examples of body language and its meaning. (Note: these meanings are for North America. Interpretations may differ a bit in other cultures.)
A smile is a sign of friendliness and interest. But people sometimes smile just to be polite. To get another clue from peoples faces, notice their eyes.
Friendliness and interest are expressed when a person's eyes meet yours (especially when you are the one who is talking) and then look away and meet yours again. A person who doesn't look away is expressing a challenge. A person who doesn't look at you is expressing a lack of interest (or is shy). Hand gestures can mean a person is interested in the conversation. Stay away from someone who points at you while talking with you: that person might be angry at you or feel superior to you.
1. T / F People only communicate through words.
2. T / F Body language includes posture, facial expressions, and gestures.
3. T / F Body language means the same thing in different cultures.
4. T / F A smile is just a sign of politeness.
5. T / F A person who doesn't look at you is expressing confidence and friendliness.
6. T / F Someone who points at you might be angry at you.
4. Writing & Paraphrasing
Paraphrase the following:
Language is the most important component of culture. It would be impossible to catch the subtlest nuances and meanings of other cultures without knowing the language.
Learning a second, third or fourth language is easier in early childhood than at an older age. It is particularly important to learn correct pronunciation when a person is young. At any age, learning by constant contact with native speakers in their own society is the quickest and best way.
