This is a very important part of body language. It can be the key to communication. Eye contact can show feelings such as friendliness, interest and understanding.In Western countries, using eye contact in conversations is very important. If you do not use eye contact. Westerners may think that you are not listening. And if you look away, they may also think that you are lying.However, in many Asian countries, looking down when talking with an older person,like a teacher or a parent,is polite. These differences can cause problems. For example. an Asian person might look down while listening to a Western speaker. The Western speaker might think this person is not interested in what he or she is saying.Not using eye contact can cause problems. but using too much is not polite either. In many countries, watching other people, especially strangers, for a long time is impolite. This may make them feel nervous.1What does eye contact mean?2Why is eye contact the key to communication?3If you do not use eye contact in Western countries, what may happen?4Do Asians use eye contact as often as Westerners?5 What kind of eye contact is impolite in many countries?Unit3 Traditional skillsFishing with birdsWang Damin is a fisherman. Although he is over 65, he is very fit and still enjoys working.Damin uses cormorants to catch fish. Cormorants are large black birds. They are good at catching fish because they can swim well.

The cormorants bring the fish back to the boat. The fish are then taken and thrown into a big basket by Damin. No nets are required for this type of fishing.Cormorant fishing was once practiced in lots of places in South-East China, and there were many fishermen in the area.
