People use body language to send messages to others. It is very1because others can understand you easily when you use body language. When you are talking with others, you are not just using words, but also using2. For example, waving one's hand is to say "Goodbye". Shaking hands means welcome, and clapping hands3congratulations(祝贺). Nodding the head means yes, but shaking the head means no.
Different countries have4body languages. For example, when in5, France and Arab countries kiss each other when they meet, 6men in China or Australia shake hands. People in Puerto Rico like touching each other, but people in Britain do not touch each other. People in Arab countries like7close to one another when they are talking, but English people must keep a distance away when they are talking. It is very important8the meanings of gestures and movements in the foreign country9they will help you communicate with people and make you stay there much more 10and comfortable.
Should friends be different or the same? We asked three students what they think and this is what they said I like to have friends who are like me. I'm quieter than most of the students in my class, and my best friend Yuan Li is quiet, too. There are some differences, though. I like playing computer games, but Yuan Li likes reading books.

It's not necessary to be the same. I like to have friends who are different from me. My best friend Frank is much taller than me. We both like playing tennis, but Frank always beats(打败)me in the game. Also, I'm quieter than he is.

I don't really care. My best friend is Carol. Carol is very funny, and he always makes me laugh. But we both like the same things. I don't think that differences are so important for a friend.

I'm going to see a movie with my friends this weekend. We love seeing movies, but we all like different kinds. I like to see thrillers and science fictions, my friend Sam loves action movies and comedies and my best friend, Lee, loves a good romance. Because we like different kinds of movies, it can be difficult to choose (选择) one to see. So we usually take turns (轮流) to choose the movie. It's my turn to choose this weekend, so we're going to see Harry Potter, a new movie: it's number one at the box office, and everyone is saying what a great movie it is. I can't wait!
