Body Language

Body language is of great importance to humans. 26________ However, many forms of body language we consider to be fine in our country can get us into trouble in other parts of the world. 27________ While Americans smile freely at strangers, in Russia this is considered strange and even impolite. In Asian countries a smile isn’t necessarily an expression of joy but it can be used to express pain.

 28________ In Latin America and the Middle East the acceptable distance is much shorter than what most Europeans and Americans feel comfortable with. Hand and arm movements as a form of body language are also very different among countries. Handshakes are usually acceptable almost everywhere, even between strangers; however, kissing on the cheek and touching on the shoulder or other body parts aren’t. 29________ This is why you should not touch others easily. 30________ In America and Latin America looking the other person in the eye is a sign of respect. But in Asian countries, prolonged eye contact is especially rude, so you should try your best not to do that.

Uppermost in her mind is the thought of 46___ (find) something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes.

Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may  48___(easy) spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and from, often retracing her steps before selecting. It is a 49 ___(labour) process, but the shopping time passed 50 ___(pleasant).
