We send messages to the people around us also by our expressions and body movement. A smile and a handshake shows welcome. Wave one's hand is to say “Goodbye”.
Nodding head means agreement when shaking it means disagreement. These gestures are received both by Chinese and English speakers as having the same meaning.

But not all body language means the same thing in different country(countries). Take nodding the head for example.

On January 1,2008 scientists in central China's Henan Province announced that they had unearthed fossils(化石)of the heaviest dinosaur in Asia.
The fossils were discovered in an area between Santun township and Liudian township in Ruyang county, and the dinosaur, which has an unusually large body ，has been identified as Asia's heaviest，said Wu Guochang, general engineer of the Provincial Land Resources Department.
The dinosaur measures 18 meters long and its sacrum(骶骨) is as broad as 1.31 meters，making it broader than that of the dinosaur fossil unearthed in Gansu last year, which was then identified as Asia's heaviest dinosaur，said Wu.
Wu said scientists had thought the land where the fossils were dug up was formed in the Cenozoic Era(新生代), which dates back 65 million years, and that the former existence of dinosaurs was not possible, but local residents kept on digging up what they called
dragon's bones to use as traditional Chinese medicine.
Scientists studied the “dragon's bones” and identified them as fossils of dinosaurs that lived between 85 to 100 million years ago in the Cretaceous Period (白垩期)of the Mesozoic Era.
Scientists from the Henan Provincial Geological Museum and the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences spent two years unearthing and researching the fossils and their findings have been assessed by 30 scientists from China and the United States, Britain, Germany and Japan，Wu said.
The discovery is very important for research into the geological distribution, migration and evolvement (进化) of this particular species of dinosaur, said Dong Zhiming, a scientist from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology(古生物学) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Xinhua reported.
36. Before the fossils unearthed in Henan Province, where did the scientists find the heaviest dinosaur?
A. Gansu.
B. Santun.
C. Liudian.
D. Ruyang. 答案与解析：A 从第三段话可以判断出科学家们在甘肃发现了最重的恐龙化石。故选A项。 37. Why did the local residents kept on digging up the fossils?
A. Because they called them dragon's bones.
B. Because they wanted to sell the fossils.
C. Because they wanted to use them as traditional Chinese
medicine.
D. Because they wanted to give them to the local government. 答案与解析：C 从第四段“but”之后的句子可以得出，当地居民一直挖掘化石的原因是他们想用化石作为传统的中国药品。故选C项。 [考试题] (2008·南昌)The millionaire passed away，leaving his children with a large ________. A．fortune

For example, there are much more job opportunities, and with many choices of public transport available, it's more convenient to travel. Besides, there are a lot of places for entertainment. You can eat in good restaurants, visit museums, watch movies and go to parks whenever you want to relax. However, living in a city is often very expensive.
You must find a wellpaid job, or you will not be able to afford the expenses. What's more, the city is always crowded, noisy and dirty. It is very difficult to find a good place where people can enjoy peace and fresh air as in the countryside.
[名师点评] 1. 文章对生活在城市里的利和弊进行了阐述，条理清晰，层次分明。文章的结尾有些唐突，没有适当的提出自己的观点，这是本文的美中不足。 2. 注意利弊观点之间的衔接词However运用巧妙。还有其它一些好的衔接词如：Besides; What's more等。 3. 文中一些出彩的句式：with many choices of public transport available; eat in...，visit museums, watch movies and go to parks; living in a city is...; the city is always crowded, noisy and dirty。 教 材 自 主 回 归 记记单词 1．c________vi.循环→____________n．循环，传播→___________adj.循环性的→________adj.圆形的，环形的 2．v________vt.违反，违背→________n．违反，违背→________adj.违反地，违背地→________n．违反者 3．e________n．进入；入学→________n．入口，门口 4．t________vt.款待→________n．对待，治疗 circulate circulation circulative circular violate violation violative violator entry entrance treat treatment 5．f________vt.预见→________vt.&vi.预测，预言 6．w________adj.每周一次的→________adj.一年一次的→________adj.每月一次的→________adj.每天的；n.日报 7．m________n．最低；最小→__________n．最大，最大量8．u_____________adv.无条件地→____________adv.附有条件地→___________adj.以……为条件的，附有条件的→________n．情况，环境，条件 foresee forecast weekly yearly monthly daily minimum maximum unconditionally conditionally conditional condition 9．e________vt.使有准备→________adj.装备好的→___________n．配备，装备，器械 10．c________n．担心，担忧→___________adj.担心的，相关的→___________adv.担忧的→_____________prep.关于，有关 equip equipped equipment concern concerned concernedly concerning 记记短语 1.Floyd Landis made several lame excuses blaming medicine he had been taking for an injury but ________________________(那些全是徒劳)． 2．It is compulsory for winners to be tested but other participants ________________________(只是被随机检查)． these were all in vain are only tested at random 3．The Olympic spirit—the spirit of competition which emphasises taking part rather than winning—has been violated by the desire ____________ (不惜一切代价获得成功)． 4．I decided not to put off studying and got up early every morning to______________________________(立刻专心于工作)． to succeed at all costs get down to work straight away 5．We have to have faith that ________________________ (迟早有消灭禽流感的方法)． 6．If trends continue the way they're going, then in my opinion, yes—in developed countries ______________(至少)．
