Body language is an important part of communication (交流). If you want to communicate well, it's important to understand how you can (and can't) use your body to express what you mean, especially when you're in a foreign country.
If a person is bored, he won't look at the person who is talking to him. He will find other things to do. He may also keep looking at his watch or a clock. If a person is open to you, his arms and legs will not be crossed (交叉的) And if a person is relaxed, you will know it by looking at his body. Even his breathing (呼吸) will be slower.
Here are some examples of body language:
| Body language | Feeling |
| Sitting with legs crossed | Bored |
| Sitting with legs apart | Open, relaxed |
| Walking with hands in pockets, head down | Sad |
| Hands clasped (握紧) behind the back | Angry |
