It’s natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave . 【1】 But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages ? Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body ?

They found that when a person is looking at your face , she might not believe what she sees if your body language doesn’t match the feeling that your face shows . 【2】 Previously , they had found that the tone of a person’s voice can be more important than the words that are spoken . For example , most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice , “ I’m so excited . ”

To test if this was true , psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated faces and isolated bodies (with faces blurred out（模糊的）) that showed anger or fear . 【3】 An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips . A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth . 【4】 A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square , as if ready to defend .

These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people . Even when people pay attention to the face , body language sutly influences which emotion they read . 【5】 If you want to be understood , it helps to avoid sending mixed messages .

A. Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists .

B. So , your body language is important for telling people how you feel .

C. Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people .

D. An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle , as if ready to fight .

E. Body language can sometimes be misunderstood in different culture backgrounds .

F. When you do this , your face and body work together to show your friends that you’re happy to see them .

G. They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies .
