填空题.It has been justly said that while "we speak with our vocal organs we con 1 with our whole bodies." All of us communicate with one another 2 (verbal), as well as with words. Sometimes we know what we're doing, as with the use of g 3 such as the thumbs-up sign to indicate that we approve. But most of the time we're not aware that we're doing it. We gesture with eyebrows or a hand, meet someone else's eyes and look away. These a 4 we assume are random and incidental. But researchers have dis 5 that there is a system of them almost as consistent and comprehensible as language, and they conclude that there is a whole range of body language, 6 the way we move, the gestures we employ, the posture we adopt, the facial expression we wear, the extent to which we touch and the distance we stand from each other. The body language serves a variety of purposes. Firstly it can replace verbal communication, as with the use of gesture. Secondly it can modify verbal communication, loudness and tone of voice is an example here. Thirdly it regulates social interaction; turn taking is largely governed by non-verbal s 7 . Finally, it conveys our emotions and attitudes. This is particularly important for successful cross-culture communication. Every culture has its own "body language", and children absorb its nuances along with spoken language. The way an Englishman crosses his legs is nothing 8 the way a male American does it. When we communicate with people from other culture, the body language sometimes helps make the communication easy and 9 (effect), such as shaking hand is such a universal gesture that people all over the world know that it is a signal for greeting. But sometimes, the body language can cause certain 10 (understand) since people of different cultures often have different forms of behavior for sending the same message or have different interpretations towards the same body signal.
