Non-verbal (非言语的) communication became very important, Whenever words 11 , I depended on people's facial expressions. 12 watching how people behaved, I tried to 13 how they felt about something. The tone (音调) in people's voices was quite helpful, too.
The more I traveled and the more I talked with different people, the14 I became at "reading" people. If you travel widely, you will be able to develop this15 , too.
