[01:05.20]Read the passage and answer this question:
[01:09.56]Do the Chinese and British have similar body language?
[01:14.63]BODY LANGUAGE (1)
[01:18.58]Although we may not realize it,
[01:22.34]when we talk with others we make ourselves understood not just by words.
[01:28.87]We send messages to the people around us also by our expressions
[01:35.14]and body movements.
[01:37.99]A smile and handshake show welcome.
[01:42.24]Waving one's hand is to say "Goodbye".
[01:46.81]Nodding the head means agreement,while shaking it means disagreement.
[01:52.98]These gestures are accepted both by Chinese
[01:57.84]and English speakers as having the same meanings.
[02:02.88]But not all body language means the same thing in different countries.
[02:08.81]Take nodding the head for example.
[02:12.57]In some Asian countries it means not "Yes" but "No".
[02:18.14]In many countries in the world,men kiss each other when they meet,
[02:23.78]for example in Russia,France,
[02:28.22]Arab countries and some of the South American countries.
[02:32.58]Men do not kiss each other in either China or English speaking countries.
[02:38.64]In Britain,
[02:41.38]older people usually shake hands when they meet someone for the first time;
[02:46.95]however,young people often do not shake hands.
[02:52.23]In France,it is the custom to shake hands with people in the office every morning.
[02:59.20]French people kiss each other hello and goodbye more often than British people.
[03:05.44]Generally,people from English-speaking countries do not touch each other very much
[03:12.10]If you touch an English person,you should say "Sorry".
[03:17.38]Scientists have done some research on "Touch" in different countries.
[03:22.74]They watched pairs of people
[03:26.39]who were sitting in college coffee-shops for at least an hour.
[03:31.12]They counted the number of times that the people touched each other:
[03:36.45]England --0; USA --2; France --10;Puerto Rico --180.
[03:47.21]In some Asian countries,you must not touch the head of another person.
[03:53.17]In Arab countries,you eat using the fingers of your right hand;
[03:58.94]the left hand is not used at all.
[04:02.89]In parts of Asia you must not sit with your feet pointing at another person.
[04:09.13]Foreigners should follow these customs when they are visiting these countries.

[04:25.25]BODY LANGUAGE (2)
[04:29.01]It is good manners for an Arab to stand close to his friend when they are talking.
[04:35.07]But English people do not like to be too close to one another
[04:40.03]unless there is a reason.
[04:43.48]It could be very interesting to watch an

 Arab and an Englishman¹ talking together.
[04:49.96]The Arab who is friendly will stand close to his friend,
[04:55.24]but the Englishman will move back in order to keep a certain distance away.
[05:01.30]When they finish their talk,
[05:04.46]the two may be quite a distance from the place where they were standing².
[05:09.60]People from the United States or Arab countries
[05:14.44]stand closer than people from Britain when they are talking together.
[05:19.69]City people in Britain
[05:23.06]and the United States stand closer than those who live in the country.
[05:28.91]When one uses a foreign language,
[05:32.67]it is important to know the meanings of gestures and movements
[05:37.82]in the foreign country
[05:40.87]Using body language in a correct way will help communicate with people
