Body language is one of the most powerful means of communication. 1.    people around the world show all kinds of feelings, wishes and attitudes that they might never speak aloud.

The most universal facial expression is the smile. People usually smile to show happiness and make people feel comfortable.But sometimes it doesn’t always mean that we are truly happy, however, smile around the world can be false, hiding other feelings like anger, fear or worry. 2._   However, the general purpose of smiling is to show good feelings.

From the time we are babies, we show unhappiness or anger by frowning. 3.    Making a fist and shaking it almost means that someone is angry and threatening another person.

There are many ways around the world to show agreement ,but nodding the head up and down is used for agreement almost worldwide. 4.

How about showing that I am bored? Looking away from people will 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’m hearing or don’t like it.

Be respectful to people is subjective, based on each culture. but in general it is probably not a good idea to give a hug to a boss or teacher.   5. 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.

A.Most people also understand that shaking the head from side to side means disagreement or refusal.

B.There are unhappy smiles, such as when someone “loses face” and smiles to hide it.

C.It is often even more powerful than spoken language.

D.People around the world show how their feelings in quite different ways.

E.Standing at a little distance with open hands will show that I am willing to listen.

F.In most places around the world, frowning and turning one’s back to someone shows anger.
