Unit 4 Body language Book 4 I. Yesterday another student and I, 1 our universitys student association, went to meet this years international students. After half an hour of waiting, I saw several young people enter the waiting area looking around 2 . I went forward to 3 them. After being introduced, they greeted each other in different ways, causing some 4 and culture mistakes. As I get to know more international friends, I learn more about this culture 5 . 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 6 with spoken language, they also express their feelings through physical distance, actions or 7 . These actions are simply ways in which cultures have developed. I have seen, however, that cultural customs for body language are very general-not all members of a culture 8 in the same way. 9 , though, studying international customs can certainly help 10 difficulties in todays world of cultural crossroads.II. Body language is one of the most powerful 1 of communication, often even more powerful than spoken language. People around the world show all kinds of feelings, wishes and attitudes that they might never speak aloud. It is possible to “read” others around us, even if they do not 2 us to catch their unspoken communication. Of course, body language can be misread, but many gestures and actions are 3 .The most universal facial expression is, of course, the smile-its 4 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 5 , 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 6 of smiling is to show good feelings.Being respectful to people is 7 , based 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 8 . Standing at a little distance with open hands will show that I am willing to listen.With so many culture differences between people, it is great to have some 9 in body language. We can often be wrong about each other, so it is an 10 thing that we understand each other as well as we do!III. Not all cultures use the handshake, and people in many Asian 1 do not always touch other person. The 2 greeting in China was to cover the left hand with the right and bow. Japanese people might cover one hand with the other and, 3 whom they are greeting, bow slightly or quite low. In India, Hindu people join their hands in front of their faces and bow their heads. A Muslin 4 touch his heart, mouth and forehead to show 5 . Even young people in the West now give each other the “high five”, 6 they slap each others hands high in the air. They are all keeping their hands busy. In almost all cultures, to smile and show an open right hand 7 , “Welcome, you are 8 with me.”Unit 4representing, greet, curiosity, misunderstanding, body language, communicate, posture, behave, in general, avoid, means, intend for, universal, function, false, purpose, subjective, rank, similarities, amazing, cultural, traditional, depend, will, respect, when, means, safe.春天开花的植物及时段颜色早春：连翘、金钟花、梅花、腊梅、玉兰、紫荆红色：樱花、日本晚樱、桃、梅、山茶、蔷薇类、月季类、二乔玉兰、杏、海棠属（垂丝海棠、西府海棠、海棠花、苹果、山荆子等）、木瓜属（木瓜、贴梗海棠、木瓜海棠、日本贴梗海棠）、绣线菊类（金山绣线菊、金焰绣线菊等）、毒八角、红茴香、牡丹、红继木、柑桔、柚子虞美人、花毛茛、唐菖蒲、金鱼草、瓜叶菊、耧斗菜、三色堇、雏菊、芍药黄色：棣棠、迎春、云南黄馨、金钟花、连翘、结香、黄木香、含笑、黄玉兰（不知为何种之品种）、羊踯躅、黄色月季、牡丹、云实、花毛茛、四季报春、欧洲报春、黄菖蒲、黄堇类（如蛇果黄堇、少花黄堇等）、三色堇、芍药、紫茉莉 白色：白木香、玉兰、深山含笑、阔瓣含笑、梅花、山茶、杜鹃、桃、李、杜梨、豆梨、沙梨、白梨、贴梗海棠、白檀、山矾、溲疏、荚蒾类、山梅花、野茉莉、秤锤树、牡丹、芍药、继木、海桐、白鹃梅、白丁香、香雪球、金鱼草、瓜叶菊、白玉棠（蔷薇之品种）、白色月季、绣线菊类（中华绣线菊、麻叶绣线菊、珍珠绣线菊、笑靥花等）、三色堇、雏菊紫色：紫玉兰、苦楝、金鱼草、瓜叶菊、杜鹃、鹿角杜鹃、云锦杜鹃、满山红、牡丹、芍药、瑞香、紫堇类、三色堇、紫茉莉、酢浆草、紫丁香、泡桐属（如白花泡桐、兰考泡桐、毛泡桐等）兰色：鸢尾、西伯利亚鸢尾、马蔺、金鱼草、瓜叶菊、三色堇夏日开花的植物和花期夏（杜）鹃 5-7月 朱顶红、倒挂金钟、三色堇 4-6月 芍药、栀子花 花期 5-7月 月季 花期 5-9月 蔷薇、石榴 花期 5-6月 荷花、马蹄莲、米兰、金莲花 7-8月 白兰花 7月 木槿、合欢、百合、蜀葵 6-8月 玉簪、桔梗、半支莲、凌霄、昙花、山丹 7-9月 紫薇、紫茉莉、牵牛花、凤仙花 6-9月 万年青、萱草、八仙花、五色椒 6-7月 夹竹桃、大岩桐 5-10月 茉莉 6-11月 美人蕉、江西腊 6-10月 金银花、飞燕草 5-8月 四季海棠、令箭荷花、扶桑、无花果等也都是夏季开花的秋天开花的植物及各品种颜色桂花(黄) 月季(红、黄、白) 木芙蓉(红) 木槿(白、紫、红) 帝皇菊（黄色） 双荚槐（黄色） 天人菊(红) 秋葵 伞房决明(黄) 黄蜀葵 百日草 蛇目菊 红色：月季、木芙蓉、夹竹桃、木槿、天人菊 一串红、秋葵、石蒜、百日草、翠菊、蛇目菊、菊花 紫色：月季、木槿、 一串紫（一串红之品种）、百日草、菊花 黄色：黄蜀葵、黄秋葵、伞房决
