When people communicate,they use more than words. People's body language shows important information just like speech does. When someone lies with their words,their body language often tells the truth. The next time you wonder if someone is telling you the truth,try watching their hands.

    A person who is being honest will usually turn one or both of their palms(手掌) towards the other person. If a person is beginning to “open up” or share important information,you may notice them turn their palms towards you. Like most body language,this unconscious(无意识的) gesture usually gives the other person the feeling that the speaker is speaking honestly.

     When people lie,they tend to hide their palms by putting their hands behind their back or holding them. Others will keep their hands in their pockets if they are lying or trying to hide information. Salespeople are sometimes trained to watch out for this specific example of body language when a person is saying that they can't afford a product or service. Sometimes professional liars try to use open-palm gestures to fool others. But a careful listener may tell it is a lie through their body language such as lack of eye contact and touching the nose.

   Research has also suggested that if people normally turn their palms to face theii* listeners,they tend to be more honest themselves. If you want people’ lionesty,talk to them and ask them questions while keeping your palms turned out. This will put pressure . the people you are talking to.

       Human body language,emotion,and communication are directly connected. By showing that you kre honest,with your palms towards people,your body language pushes others to tell you the truth.
