英语学习讲义
M：Well, I had a meeting today with a woman from Japan and she wouldn't stop bowing! I didn't know what to do!
W：Did you bow back?
M：No, I tried to shake her hand, but her hand was so limp. I was a bit offended. W：Well, Japanese businessmen and businesswomen typically bow to greet each other in Japan. She might have been offended by your strong handshake.
M：But she was in Japan! Didn't she know that strong handshakes in America signify confidence?
W：Things are different in Japan.You know, in some countries, making eye contact with others is considered rude.
M：Is that why she wouldn't look at me in the meeting? W：I think it's highly possible.
M：The meeting really didn't go down well at all. I think I need to read up on body language before Ihave another meeting with someone from another country.
W：That's a good idea. When you don't know much about other cultures, the simplest thing can offend someone.
M：That's true. Text 2
W：Hi, Carl. What are you doing? M：I'm reading a book. W：What's it about?
M：It's about body language, and it's very interesting. Do you want to read it? W：No. Just tell me something about it. In my opinion, different countries have different body language, right?
M：Quite right. But most body language means the same thing in different countries, for example, putting up a hand means “May I ask a question？” and a smile and a handshake show “welcome”．
W：Oh, I see. Nodding the head of course means “Yes.” Don't you think so? M：Not quite. In some Asian countries it means “No.” not “Yes.”
W：Really? That's quite different from ours. I think it necessary for me to look through this book.
M：OK, here you are.
