新人教版 Book Unit 4 Body Language 课文
Unit 4Body languagePart I Communication: No Problem?Yesterday, another student and I, represent ing our university’s student association, went to the Capital International Airport to meet this year’s international students. They were coming to study at Beijing University. We would take them first to their dormitories and then to the student canteen. After half an hour of waiting for their flight to arrive, I saw several enter the waiting area looking around curiously. I stood for a minute watching them and then went to greet them.The first person to arrive was Tony Garcia from Colombia, closely follow ed by Julia Smith from Britain. After I met them and then introduce d them to each other, I was very surprised. Tony approach ed Julia, touch ed her shoulder and kissed her on the cheek! She step ped back appear ing surprised and put up her hands, as if in defence. I guess ed that there was probably a major misunderstanding. Then Akira Nagata from Japan came in smiling, together with George Cook from Canada. As they were introduced, George reach ed his hand out to the Japanese student. Just at that moment, however, Akira bow ed so his nose touch ed George’s moving hand. They both apologize d —another cultural mistake!Ahmed Aziz, another international student, was from Jordan. When we met yesterday, he moved very close to me as I introduced myself. I moved back a bit, but he came closer to ask a question and then shook my hand. When Darlene Coulon from France came dash ing through the door, she recognize d Tony Garcia’s smiling face. They shook hands and then kissed each other twice on each cheek, since that is the French custom when adult s meet people they know. Ahmed Aziz, on the contrary, simply nod ded at the girls. Men from Middle Eastern and other Muslim countries will often stand quite close to other men to talk but will usually not touch women.As I get to know more international friends, I learn more about this cultural “body language”. Not all cultures greet each other the same way, nor are they comfortable in the same way with touching or distance between people. In the same way that people communicate with spoken language, they also express their feelings using unspoken “language” through physical distance, action s or posture. English people, for example, do not usually stand very close to others or touch stranger s as soon as they meet. However, people from places like Spain, Italy or South American countries approach others closely and are more likely to touch them. Most people around the world now greet each other by shaking hands, but some cultures use other greetings as well, such as the Japanese, who prefer to bow.These actions are not good or bad, but are simply ways in which cultures have develope d. I have seen, however, that cultural customs for body language are very general - not all member s of a culture behave in the same way. In general, though, studying international custom s can certainly help avoid difficulties in today’s world of cultural crossroad s!Part II Showing our FeelingsBody language is one of the most powerful means of communication, often even more powerful than spoken language. People around the world show all kinds of feelings, wishes and attitude s that they might never speak aloud. It is possible to “read” others around us, even if they do not intend for us to catch their unspoken communication. Of course, body language can be misread, but many gesture s and actions are universal.The most universal facial expression is, of course, the smile – its function is to show happiness and put people at ease. It does not always mean that we are truly happy, however. Smiles around the world can be false, hiding other feelings like anger, fear or worry. There are unhappy smiles, such as when someone “loses face” and smiles to hide it. However, the general purpose of smiling is to show good feelings.From the time we are babies, we show unhappiness or anger by frown ing. In most places around the world, frowning and turning one’s back to someone shows anger. Making a fist and shaking it almost always means that someone is angry and threaten ing another person.There are many ways around the world to show agreement, but nod ding the head up and down is used for agreement, almost worldwide. Most people also understand that shaking the head from side to side means disagreement or refusal.How about showing that I am bore d? Looking away from people or yawn ing will, in most cases, make me appear to be uninterested. However, if I turn toward and look at someone or something, people from almost every culture will think that I am interested. If I roll my eyes and turn my head away, I most likely do not believe what I am hearing or do not like it.Being respectful to people is subjective, base d on each culture, but in general it is probably not a good idea to give a hug to a boss or teacher. In almost every culture, it is not usually good to stand too close to someone of a higher rank. Standing at a little distance with open hands will show that I am willing to listen.With so many cultural differences between people, it is great to have some similarities in body language. We can often be wrong about each other, so it is an amazing thing that we understand each other as well as we do!。

沟通:没问题吗?昨天,我和另一个学生代表我们大学的学生会去首都国际机场迎接今年的国际学生。
他们是来北京大学学习的。
我们会先带他们去宿舍,然后去学生餐厅。
等了半个小时后，他们的航班到了,我看见几个年轻人进入等候区，好奇地环顾四周。
观察了他们一分钟后, 我便过去和他们打招呼。
第一个到达的是来自哥伦比亚的托尼·加西亚。
紧接着是来自英国的朱丽.亚史密斯。
在与他们碰面并介绍他们彼此认识后,我（对看到的情景）感到很吃惊。
托尼走近朱莉娅,摸了摸她的肩膀，并亲吻了她的脸颊! 她后退了几步，看上去有些吃惊,她举起双手,仿佛在自卫。
我猜想这里可能有个大的误会。
然后日本的永田明笑着走了进来,同时来的还有来自加拿大的乔治.库克。
我为他们作了介绍后,乔治把手伸向了这位日本学生。
然而,就在那时田永明鞠了一躬，所以他的鼻子碰到了乔治伸过来的手。
他们互相道歉——这又是一个文化上的误会!另一个国际学生艾哈迈德·阿齐兹,来自约旦。
我们昨天见面，我作自我介绍的时候,他靠我很近。
我往后退一点,但他又走向前问了我一个问题,然后同我握手。
当来自法国来的达琳.库隆从门口匆忙进来时,她认出了托尼·加西亚微笑的面孔。
他们握了握手,然后在对方的面颊上吻了两下,因为法国成年人见到熟人就是这样做的。
相反，艾哈迈德阿齐兹只是朝女孩子们点了点头。
来自中东或其他一些穆斯林国家的男士在谈话时通常站得离其他男士很近，但一般不会和女士接触。
随着认识的国际朋友越来越多,我也了解到更多不同文化背景下的“身体语言”。
各种文化背景下人们互致问候的方式不尽相同,相互接触和相互所感到舒适的程度也并不一样。
用口头语言交流的同时,人们还使用不出声的语言，通过身体间的距离、动作或姿势来表达他们的感情。
比如, 英国人通常不会站在离别人很近的地方，也不会一见面就（用身体）触碰陌生人。
不过,来自西班牙、意大利或南美国家的人会站在离别人很近的地方，而且更可能（用身体）接触对方。

Listening and thinking P38Listening to How Bodies Talk倾听身体的诉说We use both words and body language to express our thoughts and opinions in our interactions with other people. We can learn a lot about what people are thinking by watching their body language. Words are important, but the way people stand, hold their arms, and move their hands can also give us information about their feelings.在与他人交流时，我们既使用言语也通过身势语来表达我们的想法和观点。
通过观察别人的身势语，我们可以了解很多他们的想法。
言语固然重要，但是人们站立、握紧手臂、移动双手的方式也能帮助我们了解他们的情绪。
Just like spoken language, body language varies from culture to culture. The crucial thing is using body language in a way that is appropriate to the culture you are in. For example, making eye contact—looking into someone’s eyes—in some countries is a way to display interest. In other countries, by contrast, eye contact is not always approved of. For example, in many Middle Eastern countries, men and women are not socially permitted to make eye contact. In Japan, it may demonstrate respect to look down when talking to an older person.就像口头语言一样，身势语因文化而异。
