Your body language shapes who you are英文字幕(可打印修改)

Your body language shapes who you areSo I want to start by offering you a free no-tech life hack, and all it requires of you is this: that you change your posture for two minutes.But before I give it away, I want to ask you to right now do a little audit of your body and what you're doing with your body.So how many of you are sort of making yourselves smaller?Maybe you're hunching, crossing your legs, maybe wrapping your ankles.Sometimes we hold onto our arms like this. Sometimes we spread out. (Laughter)I see you. (Laughter)So I want you to pay attention to what you're doing right now.We're going to come back to that in a few minutes, and I'm hoping that if you learn to tweak this a little bit, it could significantly change the way your life unfolds.So, we're really fascinated with body language, and we're particularly interested in other people's bodylanguage.You know, we're interested in, like, you know — (Laughter) — an awkward interaction, or a smile, or a contemptuous glance, or maybe a very awkward wink, or maybe even something like a handshake. Narrator: Here they are arriving at Number 10, and look at this lucky policeman gets to shake hands with the President of the United States. Oh, and here comes the Prime Minister of the — ? No. (Laughter) (Applause)(Laughter) (Applause)Amy Cuddy: So a handshake, or the lack of a handshake, can have us talking for weeks and weeks and weeks.Even the BBC and The New York Times.So obviously when we think about nonverbal behavior, or body language -- but we call it nonverbals as social scientists -- it's language, so we think about communication.When we think about communication, we think about interactions.So what is your body language communicating tome?What's mine communicating to you?And there's a lot of reason to believe that this is a valid way to look at this. So social scientists have spent a lot of time looking at the effects of our body language, or other people's body language, on judgments.And we make sweeping judgments and inferences from body language.And those judgments can predict really meaningful life outcomes like who we hire or promote, who we ask out on a date.For example, Nalini Ambady, a researcher at Tufts University, shows that when people watch 30-second soundless clips of real physician-patient interactions, their judgments of the physician's niceness predict whether or not that physician will be sued.So it doesn't have to do so much with whether or not that physician was incompetent, but do we like that person and how they interacted?Even more dramatic, Alex Todorov at Princeton hasshown us that judgments of political candidates' faces in just one second predict 70 percent of U.S. Senate and gubernatorial race outcomes, and even, let's go digital, emoticons used well in online negotiations can lead to you claim more value from that negotiation.If you use them poorly, bad idea. Right?So when we think of nonverbals, we think of how we judge others, how they judge us and what the outcomes are.We tend to forget, though, the other audience that's influenced by our nonverbals, and that's ourselves. We are also influenced by our nonverbals, our thoughts and our feelings and our physiology.So what nonverbals am I talking about?I'm a social psychologist. I study prejudice, and I teach at a competitive business school, so it was inevitable that I would become interested in power dynamics.I became especially interested in nonverbal expressions of power and dominance.And what are nonverbal expressions of power anddominance?Well, this is what they are.So in the animal kingdom, they are about expanding. So you make yourself big, you stretch out, you take up space, you're basically opening up.It's about opening up. And this is true across the animal kingdom. It's not just limited to primates.And humans do the same thing. (Laughter)So they do this both when they have power sort of chronically, and also when they're feeling powerful in the moment.And this one is especially interesting because it really shows us how universal and old these expressions of power are.This expression, which is known as pride, Jessica Tracy has studied. She shows that people who are born with sight and people who are congenitally blind do this when they win at a physical competition.So when they cross the finish line and they've won, it doesn't matter if they've never seen anyone do it. They do this.So the arms up in the V, the chin is slightly lifted.What do we do when we feel powerless? We do exactly the opposite. We close up. We wrap ourselves up.We make ourselves small. We don't want to bump into the person next to us.So again, both animals and humans do the same thing.And this is what happens when you put together high and low power. So what we tend to do when it comes to power is that we complement the other's nonverbals.So if someone is being really powerful with us, we tend to make ourselves smaller. We don't mirror them.We do the opposite of them.So I'm watching this behavior in the classroom, and what do I notice? I notice that MBA students really exhibit the full range of power nonverbals.So you have people who are like caricatures of alphas, really coming into the room, they get right into the middle of the room before class even starts, like they really want to occupy space.When they sit down, they're sort of spread out.They raise their hands like this.You have other people who are virtually collapsing when they come in. As soon they come in, you see it.You see it on their faces and their bodies, and they sit in their chair and they make themselves tiny, and they go like this when they raise their hand.I notice a couple of things about this.One, you're not going to be surprised.It seems to be related to gender.So women are much more likely to do this kind of thing than men.Women feel chronically less powerful than men, so this is not surprising. But the other thing I noticed is that it also seemed to be related to the extent to which the students were participating, and how well they were participating.And this is really important in the MBA classroom, because participation counts for half the grade.So business schools have been struggling with this gender grade gap.You get these equally qualified women and men coming in and then you get these differences in grades, and it seems to be partly attributable to participation.So I started to wonder, you know, okay, so you have these people coming in like this, and they're participating. Is it possible that we could get people to fake it and would it lead them to participate more? So my main collaborator Dana Carney, who's at Berkeley, and I really wanted to know, can you fake it till you make it?Like, can you do this just for a little while and actually experience a behavioral outcome that makes you seem more powerful?So we know that our nonverbals govern how other people think and feel about us. There's a lot of evidence.But our question really was, do our nonverbals govern how we think and feel about ourselves? There's some evidence that they do.So, for example, we smile when we feel happy, but also, when we're forced to smile by holding a pen inour teeth like this, it makes us feel happy.So it goes both ways. When it comes to power, it also goes both ways. So when you feel powerful, you're more likely to do this, but it's also possible that when you pretend to be powerful, you are more likely to actually feel powerful.So the second question really was, you know, so we know that our minds change our bodies, but is it also true that our bodies change our minds?And when I say minds, in the case of the powerful, what am I talking about?So I'm talking about thoughts and feelings and the sort of physiological things that make up our thoughts and feelings, and in my case, that's hormones. I look at hormones.So what do the minds of the powerful versus the powerless look like?So powerful people tend to be, not surprisingly, more assertive and more confident, more optimistic.They actually feel that they're going to win even at games of chance.They also tend to be able to think more abstractly.So there are a lot of differences. They take more risks.There are a lot of differences between powerful and powerless people.Physiologically, there also are differences on two key hormones: testosterone, which is the dominance hormone, and cortisol, which is the stress hormone. So what we find is that high-power alpha males in primate hierarchies have high testosterone and low cortisol, and powerful and effective leaders also have high testosterone and low cortisol.So what does that mean? When you think about power, people tended to think only about testosterone, because that was about dominance. But really, power is also about how you react to stress.So do you want the high-power leader that's dominant, high on testosterone, but really stress reactive?Probably not, right? You want the person who's powerful and assertive and dominant, but not very stress reactive, the person who's laid back.So we know that in primate hierarchies, if an alpha needs to take over, if an individual needs to take over an alpha role sort of suddenly, within a few days, that individual's testosterone has gone up significantly and his cortisol has dropped significantly.So we have this evidence, both that the body can shape the mind, at least at the facial level, and also that role changes can shape the mind.So what happens, okay, you take a role change, what happens if you do that at a really minimal level, like this tiny manipulation, this tiny intervention? "For two minutes," you say, "I want you to stand like this, and it's going to make you feel more powerful." So this is what we did. We decided to bring people into the lab and run a little experiment, and these people adopted, for two minutes, either high-power poses or low-power poses, and I'm just going to show you five of the poses, although they took on only two.So here's one.A couple more.This one has been dubbed the "Wonder Woman" bythe media.Here are a couple more.So you can be standing or you can be sitting.And here are the low-power poses.So you're folding up, you're making yourself small. This one is very low-power.When you're touching your neck, you're really protecting yourself.So this is what happens. They come in, they spit into a vial, we for two minutes say, "You need to do this or this."They don't look at pictures of the poses. We don't want to prime them with a concept of power. We want them to be feeling power, right? So two minutes they do this.We then ask them, "How powerful do you feel?" on a series of items, and then we give them an opportunity to gamble, and then we take another saliva sample. That's it. That's the whole experiment.So this is what we find. Risk tolerance, which is the gambling, what we find is that when you're in the high-power pose condition, 86 percent of you willgamble.When you're in the low-power pose condition, only 60 percent, and that's a pretty whopping significant difference.Here's what we find on testosterone.From their baseline when they come in, high-power people experience about a 20-percent increase, and low-power people experience about a 10-percent decrease.So again, two minutes, and you get these changes. Here's what you get on cortisol. High-power people experience about a 25-percent decrease, and the low-power people experience about a 15-percent increase.So two minutes lead to these hormonal changes that configure your brain to basically be either assertive, confident and comfortable, or really stress-reactive, and, you know, feeling sort of shut down. And we've all had the feeling, right?So it seems that our nonverbals do govern how we think and feel about ourselves, so it's not just others, but it's also ourselves.Also, our bodies change our minds.But the next question, of course, is can power posing for a few minutes really change your life in meaningful ways?So this is in the lab. It's this little task, you know, it's just a couple of minutes. Where can you actually apply this? Which we cared about, of course.And so we think it's really, what matters, I mean, where you want to use this is evaluative situations like social threat situations. Where are you being evaluated, either by your friends? Like for teenagers it's at the lunchroom table.It could be, you know, for some people it's speaking at a school board meeting. It might be giving a pitch or giving a talk like this or doing a job interview.We decided that the one that most people could relate to because most people had been through was the job interview.So we published these findings, and the media are all over it, and they say, Okay, so this is what you do when you go in for the job interview, right? (Laughter) You know, so we were of course horrified, and said,Oh my God, no, no, no, that's not what we meant at all.For numerous reasons, no, no, no, don't do that. Again, this is not about you talking to other people. It's you talking to yourself. What do you do before you go into a job interview? You do this.Right? You're sitting down. You're looking at your iPhone -- or your Android, not trying to leave anyone out.You are, you know, you're looking at your notes, you're hunching up, making yourself small, when really what you should be doing maybe is this, like, in the bathroom, right? Do that. Find two minutes. So that's what we want to test. Okay?So we bring people into a lab, and they do either high- or low-power poses again, they go through a very stressful job interview.It's five minutes long. They are being recorded. They're being judged also, and the judges are trained to give no nonverbal feedback, so they look like this. Like, imagine this is the person interviewing you.So for five minutes, nothing, and this is worse thanbeing heckled.People hate this. It's what Marianne LaFrance calls "standing in social quicksand."So this really spikes your cortisol.So this is the job interview we put them through, because we really wanted to see what happened. We then have these coders look at these tapes, four of them.They're blind to the hypothesis. They're blind to the conditions.They have no idea who's been posing in what pose, and they end up looking at these sets of tapes, and they say, "Oh, we want to hire these people," -- all the high-power posers -- "we don't want to hire these people.We also evaluate these people much more positively overall."But what's driving it? It's not about the content of the speech.It's about the presence that they're bringing to the speech.We also, because we rate them on all these variablesrelated to competence, like, how well-structured is the speech? How good is it? What are their qualifications?No effect on those things. This is what's affected. These kinds of things. People are bringing their true selves, basically. They're bringing themselves.They bring their ideas, but as themselves, with no, you know, residue over them.So this is what's driving the effect, or mediating the effect.So when I tell people about this, that our bodies change our minds and our minds can change our behavior, and our behavior can change our outcomes, they say to me, "I don't -- It feels fake." Right?So I said, fake it till you make it. I don't -- It's not me.I don't want to get there and then still feel like a fraud.I don't want to feel like an impostor.I don't want to get there only to feel like I'm not supposed to be here.And that really resonated with me, because I want to tell you a little story about being an impostor andfeeling like I'm not supposed to be here.When I was 19, I was in a really bad car accident.I was thrown out of a car, rolled several times.I was thrown from the car. And I woke up in a head injury rehab ward, and I had been withdrawn from college, and I learned that my I.Q. had dropped by two standard deviations, which was very traumatic.I knew my I.Q. because I had identified with being smart, and I had been called gifted as a child.So I'm taken out of college, I keep trying to go back. They say, "You're not going to finish college.Just, you know, there are other things for you to do, but that's not going to work out for you."So I really struggled with this, and I have to say, having your identity taken from you, your core identity, and for me it was being smart, having that taken from you, there's nothing that leaves you feeling more powerless than that.So I felt entirely powerless. I worked and worked and worked, and I got lucky, and worked, and got lucky, and worked.Eventually I graduated from college.It took me four years longer than my peers, and I convinced someone, my angel advisor, Susan Fiske, to take me on, and so I ended up at Princeton, and I was like, I am not supposed to be here.I am an impostor.And the night before my first-year talk, and the first-year talk at Princeton is a 20-minute talk to 20 people. That's it.I was so afraid of being found out the next day that I called her and said, "I'm quitting."She was like, "You are not quitting, because I took a gamble on you, and you're staying.You're going to stay, and this is what you're going to do.You are going to fake it.You're going to do every talk that you ever get asked to do.You're just going to do it and do it and do it, even if you're terrified and just paralyzed and having an out-of-body experience, until you have this moment where you say, 'Oh my gosh, I'm doing it.Like, I have become this. I am actually doing this.'"So that's what I did. Five years in grad school, a few years, you know, I'm at Northwestern, I moved to Harvard, I'm at Harvard, I'm not really thinking about it anymore, but for a long time I had been thinking, "Not supposed to be here. Not supposed to be here." So at the end of my first year at Harvard, a student who had not talked in class the entire semester, who I had said, "Look, you've gotta participate or else you're going to fail," came into my office. I really didn't know her at all.And she said, she came in totally defeated, and she said, "I'm not supposed to be here."And that was the moment for me. Because two things happened.One was that I realized, oh my gosh, I don't feel like that anymore. You know.I don't feel that anymore, but she does, and I get that feeling.And the second was, she is supposed to be here! Like, she can fake it, she can become it.So I was like, "Yes, you are! You are supposed to be here!And tomorrow you're going to fake it, you're going to make yourself powerful, and, you know, you're gonna — " (Applause)(Applause)"And you're going to go into the classroom, and you are going to give the best comment ever."You know? And she gave the best comment ever, and people turned around and they were like, oh my God, I didn't even notice her sitting there, you know? (Laughter)She comes back to me months later, and I realized that she had not just faked it till she made it, she had actually faked it till she became it.So she had changed.And so I want to say to you, don't fake it till you make it.Fake it till you become it. You know? It's not — Do it enough until you actually become it and internalize. The last thing I'm going to leave you with is this.Tiny tweaks can lead to big changes.So this is two minutes.Two minutes, two minutes, two minutes.Before you go into the next stressful evaluative situation, for two minutes, try doing this, in the elevator, in a bathroom stall, at your desk behind closed doors.That's what you want to do. Configure your brain to cope the best in that situation.Get your testosterone up. Get your cortisol down. Don't leave that situation feeling like, oh, I didn't show them who I am.Leave that situation feeling like, oh, I really feel like I got to say who I am and show who I am.So I want to ask you first, you know, both to try power posing, and also I want to ask you to share the science, because this is simple.I don't have ego involved in this. (Laughter)Give it away. Share it with people, because the people who can use it the most are the ones with no resources and no technology and no status and no power. Give it to them because they can do it in private.They need their bodies, privacy and two minutes, and it can significantly change the outcomes of theirlife.Thank you. (Applause) (Applause)。

关于body language的英语作文

关于body language的英语作文

关于body language的英语作文Body language is a powerful form of communication that transcends verbal language. It encompasses gestures, facial expressions, posture, and eye movements that all convey hidden messages and emotions. It is said that nonverbal cues make up more than half of our communication, making it crucial to understand the impact of body language in our daily interactions with others.身体语言是一种强大的沟通形式,超越了口头语言。

它包括手势、面部表情、姿势和眼神动作,都传达着隐藏的信息和情绪。

据说,非语言暗示占据了我们沟通的一半以上,因此了解身体语言在我们日常与他人互动中的影响至关重要。

One aspect of body language that plays a significant role in communication is facial expressions. Our faces are a canvas for our emotions, and often, our facial expressions can reveal more than words ever could. A smile can instantly brighten someone's day, while a frown can signal displeasure or sadness. It is essential to pay attention to the facial expressions of others to better understand their feelings and reactions.在沟通中扮演重要角色的身体语言方面之一是面部表情。

Body language——英语教学中不可忽视的语言

Body language——英语教学中不可忽视的语言

Body language——英语教学中不可忽视的语言摘要:本文阐述了Body language在英语教学中所起到的作用,从而使广大教师认识到身势语的重要性,进而使其能更好地在教学中加以运用,提高英语教学效率。

关键词:Body language;无声语言;英语;教学一、引言随着多使用课堂用语,创造英语环境,给学生们更好地进行听、说、读、写、练这一英语教学理论的日益深化,在英语课堂教学过程中,我们随处可听见“Please look at the blackboard”“Open the book ”“Well done, thank you …”等有声的语言。

然而,在重视这一种有声语言的应用中,另一种无声的语言——Body language却少有人注意。

实际上,Body language亦是语言的一种,在英语教学中不可忽视。

二、Body language的重要性Body language 即是态势语,又称为体态语,是口语交际活动的辅助手段,是通过体态、手势、表情、眼神等非语言因素传递信息的一种言语辅助形式。

而te achers’body language是教学教育口语中不可分割的重要组成部分,教师的一举一动不仅直接影响着教学、教育效果,而且对学生起着潜移默化的作用。

Teachers’body language包括:身姿语(Posture language)、手势语(Gesture/sign language)、表情语(Expression language)、目光语(Sight language)、空间距离语(Distance language)、服饰语(Dress language)(《教师口语》)。

这就是说,教师运用身体姿态、手势动作、面部表情等来传递信息,交流情感。

Teachers’body language是师生沟通的重要手段之一。

古人说:“情动于中而形于言”,表情动作是内在情感的自然流露,是情感发展到一定阶段所必至。

英语作文body language

英语作文body language英文版:Body language is an essential aspect of communication that often goes unnoticed. It is a powerful tool that can convey emotions, intentions, and messages without uttering a single word. In our daily interactions, we rely heavily on body language to express ourselves and understand others.One of the most significant advantages of body language is its universality. Regardless of cultural background or spoken language, people can interpret basic body language cues. A smile, for example, is a universal sign of friendliness and approachability. Similarly, crossed arms may indicate defensiveness or discomfort, while open palms suggest honesty and openness.However, it is crucial to remember that body language can vary across cultures. What may be considered polite or respectful in one culture might be offensive in another. For instance, direct eye contact is valued in Western cultures as a sign of confidence and engagement, whereas in some Asian cultures, prolonged eye contact can be seen as challenging or disrespectful.In conclusion, body language plays a vital role in our daily communication. It is a complex and nuanced aspect of human interaction that requires awareness and understanding. By paying attention to our own body language and that of others, we can improve our communication skills and build stronger, more meaningful relationships.中文翻译:身体语言是交流中一个重要却常常被忽视的方面。

Body LanguageIntroductionBody language refers to the non-verbal cues and signals that individuals use to communicate their thoughts, feelings, and intentions. It includes gestures, facial expressions, body posture, eye contact, and even the way we use space. Body language is an essential aspect of communication, often conveying messages that words alone cannot express. Understanding and interpreting body language can significantly enhance our ability to communicate effectively and understand others better.Importance of Body LanguageBody language plays a crucial role in communication as it provides additional information that complements verbal messages. Research suggests that a significant portion of communication is non-verbal, with body language accounting for as much as 55% of the total message conveyed. It is especially important in situations where there may be a disconnect between the spoken words and the underlying emotions.Understanding Gestures and Facial ExpressionsGestures and facial expressions are key components of body language that convey emotions and intentions. Common gestures such as handshakes, nods, and pointing can communicate agreement, understanding, or pointing out something of interest. Facial expressions, including smiles,frowns, and raised eyebrows, can convey happiness, surprise, anger, or confusion. Observing these gestures and expressions can give us insights into a person’s true emotions.Body Posture and ProximityThe way we position our bodies and use personal space also sends powerful signals. For example, standing tall with an open posture usually indicates confidence and assertiveness, while slouching or crossing arms can indicate defensiveness or discomfort. Additionally, the distance we maintain from others can express our level of comfort or intimacy. Being aware of body postures and maintaining appropriate proximity can help facilitate positive and meaningful interactions.Eye ContactEye contact is a crucial aspect of body language and can significantly affect the dynamics of a conversation. Sustained eye contact generally demonstrates attentiveness and interest, whereas avoiding eye contact can signal disengagement or possibly dishonesty. However, it is essential to consider cultural differences, as eye contact norms can vary across different societies.The Role of Body Language in Different Situations1.Job Interviews: During job interviews, bodylanguage can greatly influence the impression you make on the interviewer. Maintaining good posture, making eyecontact, and using appropriate gestures can signalconfidence and professionalism.2.Negotiations: Body language can play a critical role in negotiations. By observing the body language of the other party, you can gauge their level of interest, agreement, or potential deception. In addition, controlling your own body language can help you come across as assertive and in control.3.Presentations: When delivering a presentation, your body language can enhance or detract from the message you are trying to convey. Utilizing gestures, maintaining eye contact with the audience, and displaying an open posture can improve engagement and understanding.4.Personal Relationships: Body language is equally essential in personal relationships. It can help us understand our partners’ fee lings and intentions when words may fall short.

Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (April2010)Body language is a form of non-verbal communication, which consists of body posture, gestures, facial expressions, and eye movements. Humans send and interpret such signals almost entirely subconsciously.John Borg attests that human communication consists of 93 percent body language and paralinguistic cues, while only 7% of communication consists of words themselves;[1] however, Albert Mehrabian, the researcher whose 1960s work is the source of these statistics, has stated that this is a misunderstanding of the findings[2](see Misinterpretation of Mehrabian's rule). Others assert that "Research has suggested that between 60 and 70 percent of all meaning is derived from nonverbal behavior."[3]Body language may provide clues as to the attitude or state of mind of a person. For example, it may indicate aggression, attentiveness, boredom, relaxed state, pleasure, amusement, and intoxication, among many other cues.Contents[hide]∙ 1 Understanding body languageo 1.1 Physical expression∙ 2 How prevalent is non-verbal communication in humans?∙ 3 Personal space∙ 4 Unintentional gestures∙ 5 See also∙ 6 References∙7 External links[edit] Understanding body languageThe technique of "reading" people is used frequently. For example, the idea of mirroring body language to put people at ease is commonly used in interviews. Mirroring the body language of someone else indicates that they are understood.[citation needed]It is important to note that some indicators of emotion (e.g. smiling/laughing when happy, frowning/crying when sad) are largely universal;[citation needed],[4]however in the 1990s Ekman expanded his list of basic emotions, including a range of positive and negative emotions not all of which are encoded in facial muscles.[13] The newly included emotions are:A study in body language.1.Amusement2.Contempt3.Contentment4.Embarrassment5.Excitement6.Guilt7.Pride in achievement8.Relief9.Satisfaction10.Sensory pleasure11.ShameBody language signals may have a goal other than communication. Both people would keep this in mind. Observers limit the weight they place on non-verbal cues. Signalers clarify their signals to indicate the biological origin of their actions. Examples would include yawning (sleepiness), showing lack of interest (sexual interest/survival interest), attempts to change the topic (fight or flight drivers).[edit] Physical expressionPhysical expressions like waving, pointing, touching and slouching are all forms of nonverbal communication. The study of body movement and expression is known as kinesics. Humans move their bodies when communicating because, as research has shown[citation needed], it helps "ease the mental effort when communication is difficult." Physical expressions reveal many things about the person using them. For example, gestures can emphasize a point or relay a message, posture can reveal boredom or great interest, and touch can convey encouragement or caution.[5]∙One of the most basic and powerful body-language signals is whena person crosses his or her arms across the chest.[citation needed] This canindicate that a person is putting up an unconscious barrier between themselves and others. It can also indicate that the person's arms are cold, which would be clarified by rubbing the arms or huddling. When the overall situation is amicable, it can mean that a person is thinking deeply about what is being discussed. But in a serious orconfrontational situation, it can mean that a person is expressing opposition. This is especially so if the person is leaning away from the speaker. A harsh or blank facial expression often indicates outright hostility. A woman crossing her arms or hands over her chest is also a way of drawing attention to her breasts as well as a gesture of sexual anticipation.[1]∙Consistent eye contact can indicate that a person is thinking positively of what the speaker is saying. It can also mean that the other person doesn't trust the speaker enough to "take their eyes off"the speaker. Lack of eye contact can indicate negativity. On the other hand, individuals with anxiety disorders are often unable to make eye contact without discomfort. Eye contact can also be a secondary andmisleading gesture because cultural norms about it vary widely. If a person is looking at you, but is making the arms-across-chest signal, the eye contact could be indicative that something is bothering the person, and that he wants to talk about it. Or if while making direct eye contact, a person is fiddling with something, even while directly looking at you, it could indicate the attention is elsewhere. Also, there are three standard areas that a person will look which represent different states of being. If the person looks from one eye to the other then to the forehead, it is a sign that they are taking an authoritative position. If they move from one eye to the other then to the nose, that signals that they are engaging in what they consider to be a "level conversation" with neither party holding superiority. The last case is from one eye to the other and then down to the lips. This is a strong indication of romantic feelings.[citation needed]∙Disbelief is often indicated by averted gaze, or by touching the ear or scratching the chin. When a person is not being convinced by what someone is saying, the attention invariably wanders, and the eyes will stare away for an extended period.[citation needed]∙Boredom is indicated by the head tilting to one side, or by the eyes looking straight at the speaker but becoming slightly unfocused. A head tilt may also indicate a sore neck or Amblyopia, and unfocused eyes may indicate ocular problems in the listener.[citation needed]∙Interest can be indicated through posture or extended eye contact, such as standing and listening properly.[citation needed]∙Deceit or the act of withholding information can sometimes be indicated by touching the face during conversation. Excessive blinking is a well-known indicator of someone who is lying. Recently[when?], evidence has surfaced that the absence of blinking can also represent lying as a more reliable factor than excessive blinking. [2]Some people use and understand body language differently, or not at all.[citation needed]Interpreting their gestures and facial expressions (or lack thereof) in the context of normal body language usually leads to misunderstandings and misinterpretations (especially if body language is given priority over spoken language). It should also be stated that people from different cultures can interpret body language in different ways.[edit] How prevalent is non-verbal communication in humans?Some researchers[who?] put the level of nonverbal communication as high as 80 percent of all communication when it could be at around 50-65 percent. Different studies have found differing amounts, with some studies showingthat facial communication is believed 4.3 times more often than verbal meaning, and another finding that verbal communication in a flat tone is 4 times more likely to be understood than a pure facial expression.[citation needed] Albert Mehrabian is noted for finding a 7%-38%-55% rule, supposedly denoting how much communication was conferred by words, tone, and body language. However he was only referring to cases of expressing feelings or attitudes.[edit] Personal spaceMain article: Personal spacePermitting a person to enter personal space and entering somebody else's personal space are indicators of perception of the relationship between the people. There is an intimate zone reserved for lovers, children and close family members. There is another zone used for conversations with friends, to chat with associates, and in group discussions; a further zone is reserved for strangers, newly formed groups, and new acquaintances; and a fourth zone of used for speeches, lectures, and theater; essentially, public distance is that range reserved for larger audiences.[6][edit] Unintentional gesturesSee also: Proteans (body language)‎Recently[when?], there has been huge interest in studying human behavioral clues that could be useful for developing an interactive and adaptive human-machine system. Unintentional human gestures such as making an eye rub, a chin rest, a lip touch, a nose itch, a head scratch, an ear scratch, crossing arms, and a finger lock have been found conveying some useful information in specific context. Some researchers[who?] have tried to extract such gestures in a specific context of educational applications.[citation needed] In poker games, such gestures are referred to as "tells" and are useful to players for detecting deception or behavioral patterns in an opponent(s).There is also a huge interest in learning to avoid any unintentional gesture that might leave a negative impression on the onlookers. A large number of people are starting to attend special sessions on controlled body behaviour and take advice from expert sociologists. Learning good body language, such as living styles of people of foreign people, is important during interaction in any sort of global community.[edit] See also∙Posture (psychology)∙Nonverbal communication[edit] References1.^ Borg, John.

BodyLanguage(Warmingup)教学反思

BodyLanguage(Warmingup)教学反思

Body Language (Warming up)教学反思Body Language (Warming up)教学反思本单元的中心话题是“身体语言”。

我所教授的是warming up 部分,warming up是一个单元的开始,是这个单元的窗口,如果这个窗口开得不好,将会影响整个单元的教授。

这个窗口一定要好好开。

在设计的时候,我就在想,一定要设计点有趣的又能够吸引学生注意的东西,本单元的Warming Up 部分本来是由两部分组成。

练习1通过让学生讨论四幅照片交流对日常交际的看法。

然后让学生选择课本提供的15个日常交际用语中的一个,用身势语言表演出来,让同伴猜测其意义。

我教授的这个班是年级里面基础最差的班级,共有50人。

学生的语言知识和语言技能都很差,词汇量很少,不善于表达,口语表达能力和写作能力较为薄弱,难于形成规范的英语句子。

大部分学生只是专注于倾听,表达不多,课堂气氛不够活跃,希望通过贴近生活的设计互动活动和情景,调动其学习的欲望,正确引导和激励。

通过分析学情,我决定不按教材走,另外选取贴近学生生活,学生更为感兴趣的图片,希望通过一些贴近学生生活,学生更为感兴趣的图片,希望能引起学生共鸣,激发学生参与课堂的兴趣和欲望,了解什么是Body Language,并能够正确的使用身体语言来表达自己。

通过一系列的活动来提高学生口语表达能力,并学会收集课堂细节,提高自己写作能力。

一节课下来,反映还是不错,所选用的Mr.Bean的视频和大量的图片都受到了学生的欢迎,课堂气氛较为活跃,特别是在competition的环节,学生表现了全所未有的热情,快乐的投入到整个游戏中,学习热情较高。

利用任务型教学手段,关注学生的学习过程,学生在完成看图写作部分既练习了目标语言,又达到了良好的语言输出,从课堂教学效果和课后验收来看,结果比较令人满足。

但是,不足的地方在于,学生英语听,说的'能力相对较弱,授课采用较深的全英教学,同学们还不能适应。
