Body language is the quite, secret and most powerful language of all! It is said that out body movements communicate(表达)about 50% of what we really mean while words themselves only do 7%. So while your mouth is closed, just what is your body saying…
Arms. How you hold your arms show how open and receptive(接受) you are to people your meet. If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes your way. Outgoing people usually use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to their bodies. If someone makes you angry, just cross your arms to show you’re unhappy!
Head. When you want to show your confidence, keep your head level (平直).If you are monitor in class, you can also take on this position(姿势)when you want your words to be taken seriously. However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little to one side.
Legs. Your will move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies. If you are at interviews, try to keep them still.
Mouth. When you are thinking, you often purse your lips(撅起嘴).You might also use this position to hold back angry words you don’t wish to say. However, it will probably still be noticed, and people will know you’re not pleased.

Thank for your message. Yes, I’m having a great time 1 my exchange in France .It’s even better than I thought it 2 . I was a bit 3 before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be. My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me 4 at home. And you 5 believe how quickly my French has improved! I’m very comfortable 6 French now 7 I still make lots of mistakes, it doesn’t bother me like it used to. My biggest challenge is learning 8 at the dinner table. 9 you can imagine, things are really 10 the way they are at home. For example, you’re not supposed to put your bread on your plate. You’re supposed to put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I 11 it .You’re not supposed to eat anything with your hands 12 bread, not even fruit! (You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork.) 13 thing is that it is very rude to say you’re full. If you don’t want 14 food, you should just say, “It was delicious.” Also, it’s rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands, but not your elbows, on the table. I find 15 difficult to remember everything, but I’m gradually getting used to things, and don’t find them so strange any more. I’ll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you’re having a good school year.
