We are always using body language in our daily life. When we have a conversation with someone, we may be using more body language than words. However, the same body language may mean different things in different countries. That’s why people sometimes do not understand each other correctly. Pointing to one part of the body can mean differently in different cultures. For example, in the USA people point to their heads when they think someone is clever. However, in Europe it means ‘He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head’. In our Chinese culture, nodding(点头) our head up and down means ‘yes’ and shaking our head from side to side means ‘no’. However, in parts of India, Greece and Turkey, it means just the opposite. In England or the USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb(拇指)and the second finger, it means ‘You’re all right or Everything is OK. However, if we do this in France or Belgium, it means ‘You’re worth zero’. In Greece or Turkey, we should not make this gesture(手势). Or we are thought to be very rude.
The meaning of gestures can also change over time. In the 1960s, the V sign meant ‘peace’. However, during World War II, it meant ‘victory’. In Greece, it is a very insulting(污辱性)sign.
Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning throughout the world, such as smiling and crying.
1.In England, if people point to their heads it means they think someone is ________.
A.clever B.stupid C.headache D.angry
2.In India, if one nods his head up and down, it means he ______.
A.doesn’t agree B.agree C.is happy D.is sad
3.In France, if you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb and the second finger, it means _________.
A.you are clever B.everything is OK
C.it is true D.you are worth nothing

Then Ryu sat at the kitchen table where his breakfast usually was, but it wasn’t there. Instead, he found a note left by his sister, “I am really busy today. Make breakfast yourself.” So Ryu had a quick breakfast of bread and milk. Then he rode his bicycle to the company for the interview.
When Ryu arrived, he was scolded(责骂) by the angry boss for being five minutes late. But he still got the job after the interview. Also, he was told to get to work at 9:00 a.m. the next day. That night Ryu went to bed earlier at 11:00 p.m., in order not to be late the next day.
The next morning, Ryu’s sister woke him up at 8:00 a.m. But he wanted to stay in bed for five more minutes. He finally had to get up when the sunlight shone down on his eyes.

(Renee-a beautiful princess; Broo-a blue bear; Nahloo-a magical place)
When the Princess Renee heard about Broo, she came down from her castle. She found Broo while he was busy eating honey.
“Mr. Bear,” the Princess said, “you are welcome in Nahloo. Here we share with each other. We don’t take things from each other.”
Broo thought about it for a moment and realized that he had made a mistake. “Well,” he said, “maybe drinking all that milk wasn’t the best idea.”
The Princess continued, “Mr. Bear, you can drink and eat, but you won’t feel good because you have never made any contribution to anyone else. I think you’ll find that it is better to be full in your heart, not just in your stomach.” After saying this, the Princess went back to the castle, leaving Broo alone.
One day, Broo was going to take lots of cookies from the rabbits, then he remembered what the Princess said to him. So Broo decided not to eat the cookies. The rabbits were surprised and said, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Bear. Now these cookies will taste sweeter because they are given by you, my friend. If you like, come back tomorrow and we can have the cookies together.”
Broo was filled with joy and went through the land. He gave back everything he had taken. In return, he received a promise from everyone to share their food with him. Broo was so delighted that he started dancing in the moonlight with the Princess as his partner.
