Unit 1 Body languageRead this story in a school newspaper. Debbie and Simon are college students. They have part-time jobs at a travel agency. They are sitting in the office. Debbie and Simon looked up as a well-dressed lady entered. The lady glanced at them both, then walked over to Debbie. Debbie greeted her cheerfully. The lady said, I want to go by train to Simon sighed and took some papers over to the fax machine. Mr. Young, a senior employee, was standing there. Whats up, Simon? You dont look very happy. People always prefer Debbie to me. I cant understand it. I can. Its the way you communicate. How can that be? I dont even get a chance to speak to them. Communicating is more than speaking and listening. Your body language is important, too. Body language? Its the way you stand and sit. Its your gestures and the expression on your face and in your eyes. Your whole appearance communicates things. The way you look at people doesnt give them a good impression, Simon. You often rest your head on your hand. You look downwards. You never smile. You dont turn your head or body towards people. Look at Debbie. Shes holding her head up. She looks at peoples eyes. She smiles. Your body language is telling people to go away. Debbies body language is making them feel welcome. Thats why they go to her for assistance, and not to you. After that, Simon decided to improve his body language. He sat up and smiled at people. This seemed to work. Minutes later, a very beautiful girl entered. She looked at Debbie and then Simon. Without hesitation she went to Simon and gave him a big smile. A few moments later, she left, still smiling. Mr. Young came over at once and remarked, You made a good impression on her. That was my sister, said Simon. She wanted to remind me that tomorrow is her birthday.在一份校报上读到这个故事。Debbie和Simon是大学同学，他们在一家旅行社做兼职，他们正坐在办公室里。 当一位穿着讲究的女士进来的时候Debbie和Simon抬起了头。女士扫视了一下他们两个人，然后走向Debbie, Debbie欢快地向她打招呼. 女士说，我想乘火车去. Simon叹气，并拿着一些纸来到传真机旁边，一位高级雇员Young先生就站在那。怎么了，Simon?你看上去不太高兴。 比起我来，人们总是更喜欢Debbie，我无法理解。 我能，这是你交流方式的问题。 怎么可能呢？Simon问道。我甚至没有机会跟他们说话。 交流不仅仅是说和听。你的肢体语言也很重要。 肢体语言？ 它是你站和坐的方式。是你的手势，以及你的脸上和眼里的表情。你的整个外表都传递信息。你经常将手托着额头休息，你不抬头，你从来不笑，你不把头或身体转向人们。 你看Debbie，她一直在高抬着头。她和客户进行眼神交流，她面带微笑。你的肢体语言是让客户离开，Debbie的肢体语言使客户感到舒服，那就是为什么为什么去她那儿寻求帮助而不是你这儿的原因。 从那以后，Simon决定改善自己的肢体语言。他站起来朝客户微笑。这似乎起作用了。几分钟后，一个非常漂亮的女孩走了进来。她
