Question

假如你是李华，今年寒假要去澳大利亚度假。考虑到身势语在中西方有差异，现在给你的悉尼笔友爱葛莎（Agatha）写一封信，咨询身势语在交际中的注意事项。大致有下面几个问题：

1. 外国人到澳大利亚怎样同当地人打招呼；

2. 拍别人的肩膀是否礼貌；

3. 点头是否表示同意；

4. 摇头是否表示否定；

5. 耸肩是否表示怀疑；

6. 鼓掌是否表示祝贺。

注意：1. 行文应连贯，内容应完整；

2. 词数120左右。信的开头与结尾已为你写好，不计入词数。

Agatha,

Answer 1

Agatha

    I’m going to Australia for my holiday this winter. I’m writing to ask you some questions about body language. I wonder whether they are different from that in China.

    First, as a foreigner, how should I say “hello” to the Australians?

    Second, is it polite to pat others on the shoulder?

    Third, does it mean I agree to nod my head while to shake my head means I will say no?

    Fourth, can I move my shoulders upside if I want to show my doubt?

    Fifth, can I applaud if I want to show my congratulations on the others’ success?

    I will be thankful to receive your letter. I’m looking forward to your reply.

    Best wishes.

                                                                    Yours,

                                                                    Li Hua
