阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
We always use body language in our daily life. However, the same body language may mean different things in different countries.
Pointing to one part of the body can mean differently in different cultures. For example, in
the USA, people point to their heads when they think someone is clever. However, in Europe, it means "He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head."
In our Chinese culture, nodding our heads up and down means "yes" and shaking our heads from side to side means "no". However, in parts of India, Greece and Turkey, it means just the opposite.
In England and the USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb and the second finger, it means "You're all right." or "Everything is OK." However, if we do this in France or Belgium, it means "You're worth zero." In Greece or Turkey, we should not make this gesture(姿势), or we are thought to be very rude.
The meaning of gestures can also change over time. In the 1960s, the V sign meant "peace". However, during World War II, it meant "victory". In Greece, it is a very insulting(侮辱性的) sign.
Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning throughout the world, such as smiling and crying.
(
A. clever B. stupid
C. headache D. angry
(
A. He doesn't agree.
B. He agrees.
C. He is happy.
D. He is sad.
(
A. You are clever.
B. Everything is OK.
C. It is true.
D. You are worth zero.
