From Secrets of Body Language

Watch the video clip and answer the following questions.

Script:

Voiceover:But body language is often complex, and easily misunderstood. Here, President Clinton leads the Israeli and Palestinian leaders Ehud Barak and Yasser Arafat up before the press during peace negotiations. It’s all smiles for the cameras, but behind the fa?a de of bonhomie, there’s a power struggle going on. Clinton jokingly explains that none of them will take any questions.

Clinton: We promise to each other we will answer no question and offer no comments, so I have to set a good example.

Voiceover: The body language then reveals just why that works.

Expert A:Wow. It’s almost a physical fight.

Voiceover: Many view this apparently light-hearted tussle as a sign that Arafat and Barak were getting on well. Think again.

Expert A: There is a great meaning behind who goes through the door first. Now of course here in the West, letting someone through the door first doesn’t really matter. Polite maybe. But in the Middle East, it has significant cultural impact.

Expert B:The host, the power person, says, “I’m in control. I’ll help you through the door. I’ll show you the way.”

Arafat:Thank you. Thank you.

Voiceover: Throw in the fear and tension present in most Middle East negotiations, and suddenly, the desire of both Arafat and Barak not to go through that door before the other starts to make sense.

Expert C: This is a classic example in its extreme way of how the last man through the door is the winner. So Barak reaches for Yasser Arafat. Arafat literally grasps his arm, moves on, and starts wagering his finger at Barak, who, then, Barak, uses this opportunity as a wrestling match to move around, to actually be behind Arafat, and then literally grasps Arafat, holds him by the arm, and shoves him through the door.

Expert B:So you’ve got fear and power struggl e, showing in big big big big bold body language with it.

Questions:

1. How is the “getting through the door” movement understood by many people?

Answer: Many view this apparently light-hearted tussle as a sign that Arafat and Barak were getting on well.

2. What is the hidden message behind the scene?

Answer: Arafat and Barak are struggling to get through the door after the other party in order to show “I am in control”.

3. What does this story tell us?

Answer: Body language is very important, but often complex and easily misunderstood.

II. Cultural background

Personal space

Personal space can be imagined as a kind of bubble surrounding a person that protects his or her privacy and which other people may not normally enter. Allowing somebody to get very close and enter your personal space may be a sign of trust or love. On the other hand, intruding other’s personal space can be rather offensive.

The amount of space people need to feel around them varies with various factors, such as culture, sex, familiarity between people, crowdedness of the situation, etc. For example:

●people from cultures that like a lot of personal space feel awkward and embarrassed when somebody comes too close to them;

●people of the same sex may sit or stand closer to each other than to somebody of the opposite sex;

●strangers and casual acquaintances usually need more space than friends and members of the same family who know each other well;

●in a noisy street people may need to stand closer than they would normally, simply in order to hear each other.

Section Two Global Reading

I. Structural analysis of the text

In the text, the writer first points out the fact that nowadays people are more concerned about themselves and want to have a larger personal space than decades ago, and then he analyses the causes of space invasion.

The text can be divided into three parts.

Part I (Paragraphs 1 – 2): T he writer calls the reader’s attention to the invasion of personal space by relating an experience of how his personal space was invaded.

Part II (Paragraphs 3 – 7): The writer analyzes some likely causes of the shrinkage of personal space, and attributes the invasion of personal space to the general decline of good manners. Part III (Paragraph 8 – 9): The author presents his view about the essence of personal space, i.e. it is ps ychological, rather than physical, and urges people to “expand the contracting boundaries of personal space”.

II. Rhetorical features of the text

A vivid and accurate description of the behaviour of the space invaders and those whose personal space is being invaded is achieved by a delicate selection of verbs. Some of the examples are as follows.

Verbs and verbal phrases used to describe the behaviour of space invaders:

- a man … started inching toward me … (Paragraph 1)

- In elevators, people are wedging themselves in just before the doors close ... (Paragraph 3)

- In movie theatres these days, people are staking a claim to both armrests, annexing all the elbow room ... (Paragraph 7)

Verbs and verbal phrases used to describe the reaction of those whose space is being invaded:

- I minutely advanced toward the woman… in front of me ... (Paragraph 1)

- … who absent-mindedly shuffled toward the white-haired lady ahead of him ... (Paragraph 1)

Practice:

Please find more examples to illustrate the author’s ca reful choice of verbs.

Section Three Detailed Reading

SPACE INVADERS

Richard Stengel

1 At my bank the other day, I was standing in a line snaking around some tired velvet ropes

when a man in a sweat-suit started inching toward me in his eagerness to deposit his Social Security check. As he did so, I minutely advanced toward the woman reading the Wall Street Journal in front of me, who, in mild annoyance, began to sidle up to the man scribbling a check in front of her, who absent-mindedly shuffled toward the white-haired lady ahead of him, until we were all hugger-mugger against each other, the original lazy line having collapsed in on itself like a Slinky.

2 I estimate that my personal space extends eighteen inches in front of my face, one foot to

each side, and about ten inches in back — though it is nearly impossible to measure exactly how far behind you someone is standing. The phrase “personal space” has a quaint, seventies ring to it (“You’re invading my space, man”), but it is one of those gratifying expressions that are intuitively understood by all human beings. Like the twelve-mile limit around our national shores, personal space is our individual border beyond which no stranger can penetrate without making us uneasy.

3 Lately, I’ve fo und that my personal space is being invaded more than ever before. In

elevators, people are wedging themselves in just before the doors close; on the street, pedestrians are zigzagging through the human traffic, jostling others, refusing to give way; on the subway, riders are no longer taking pains to carve out little zones of space between themselves and fellow-passengers; in lines at airports, people are pressing forward like fidgety taxis at red lights.

4 At first, I attributed this tendency to the “population explosion” and the relentless

Malthusian logic that if twice as many people inhabit the planet now as did twenty years ago, each of us has half as much space. Recently, I’ve wondered if it’s the season: T-shirt weather can make proximity more alluring (or much, much less). Or perhaps the proliferation of coffee bars in Manhattan — the number seems to double every three months — is infusing so much caffeine into the already jangling locals that people can no longer keep to themselves.

5 Personal space is mostly a public matter; we allow all kinds of invasions of personal space

in private. (Humanity wouldn’t exist without them.) The logistics of it vary according to geography. People who live in Calcutta have less personal space than folks in Co lorado. “Don’t tread on me” could have been coined only by someone with a spread. I would wager that people in the Northern Hemisphere have roomier conceptions of personal space than those in the Southern. To an Englishman, a handshake can seem like trespassing, whereas to a Brazilian, anything less than a hug may come across as chilliness.

6 Like drivers who plow into your parked and empty car and don’t leave a note, people no

longer mutter “Excuse me” when they bump into you. The decline of manners has been widely lamented. Manners, it seems to me, are about giving people space, not stepping on toes, granting people their private domain.

7 I’ve also noticed an increase in the ranks of what I think of as space invaders,

mini-territorial expansionists who seize public space with a sense of manifest destiny. In movie theatres these days, people are staking a claim to both armrests, annexing all the elbow room, while at coffee shops and on the Long Island Railroad, individuals routinely commandeer booths and sets of facing seats meant for foursomes.

8 Ultimately, personal space is psychological, not physical: it has less to do with the space

outside us than with our inner space. I suspect that the shrinking of personal space is directly proportional to the expansion of self-absorption: people whose attention is inward do not bother to look outward. Even the focus of science these days is micro, not macro. The Human Genome Project is mapping the universe of the genetic code, while neuroscientists are using souped-up M.R.I. machines to chart the flight of neurons in our brains.

9 In the same way that the breeze from a butterfly’s wings in Japan may eventually produce

a tidal wave in California, I have decided to expand the contracting boundaries of personal

space. In the line at my bank, I now refuse to move closer than three feet to the person in front of me, even if it means that the fellow behind me starts breathing down my neck.

I. Questions

1. Is “personal space” a term of the seventies? Is it out of date nowadays? Why or why not? (Paragraph 2)

Answer: “Personal space” was a term popularly used in the seventies but seldom mentioned nowadays. However, it doesn’t mean that it is out of date. People, whatever periods they are in, need personal space, which is not to be penetrated. The only problem is that the world is becoming so crowded that it is impossible for people to protect their personal space as well as they used to do.

2. What does the author mean by saying “personal space is mostly a public matter”? (Paragraph 5)

Answer: Personal space, first of all, is the space you expect and are expected to keep between you and other people in public places in order to maintain an appropriate interpersonal relationship. Edward T. Hall in The Hidden Dimension, for example, describes the social values applied by Americans to certain distances between people as falling into four main categories: “Intimate distance (0 –1&1/2 feet), Personal distance (1&1/2 –4 feet), Social/Consultative distance (4 – 10 feet), and Public distance (10 or more feet).”

3. Do you agree with the writer’s view that the contraction of the outer, personal space is proportional to the expansion of the inner-space of modern man? (Paragraph 8)

Answer: Yes, people in the present society tend to be more self-centered, concentrating on their private affairs and ignoring the outer world around them. They say they have no time or energy to care about others in a society of fast tempo. As a matter of fact, they do not want to bother about it.

Or perhaps the proliferation of coffee bars in Manhattan … is infusing so much caffeine into the already jangling locals that people can no longer keep to themselves. (Paragraph 4) Paraphrase:

Or perhaps the increasing coffee bars in Manhattan ... attract more and more people, who are stimulated and excited by the caffeine they take in, so that they become eager to meet others and no longer want to remain in private.

… we allow all kinds of invasions of personal space in private. (Humanity wouldn’t exist without them.) (Paragraph 5)

I’ve also noticed that the problem of space invasion has become more and more serious, and that space invaders, acting in the way territorial expansionists usually do, take it for granted that they have the right to seize public space.

... individuals routinely commandeer booths and sets of facing seats meant for foursomes. (Paragraph 7)

Paraphrase:

The author hopes that his own stand against the shrinking of personal space, while small in itself, will nonetheless eventually have a dramatic effect in the same way as the breeze from a butterfly’s wings in Japan, if it initiates a chain of waves, may eventual ly produce a tidal wave in California.

II. Grammar

can, could, may, might

Can, could, may and might are English modal auxiliaries. They have no non-finite forms, can only be the initial element of a finite verb phrase and are invariably followed by a bare infinitive, and have lexical meanings by themselves.

For example:

To talk about ability:

I can climb this cliff.

She could play the piano when she was only six.

To talk about possibility:

Where can/could he be?

He may/might be in his office.

To an Englishman, a handshake can seem like trespassing.

To talk about permission:

Can/Could/May/Might I smoke in here?

Yes, you can/may.

No, you can’t/may not.

Practice:

Fill in the blank in each sentence with the choice you think most appropriate.

When I was a child, I _________never understand a word he said.

can b. could c. may d. might

Both can and could can express ability, but could is used for past ability.

A: _________ I trouble you for a light?

B: Yes, of course you ________.

a. May, may

b. Might, may

c. Might, might

d. May, might Might, being more tentative, is used when one asks for permission. May is often used when one gives permission.

The plan _________ easily have gone wrong, but in fact it was a great success.

a. might

b. will

c. must

d. can

Might is used to express possibility, which has more uncertainty in tone than may or can.

I don’t agree with you, but there _________be some sense in what you say.

a. can

b. should

c. may

d. would

When can is used in a positive statement, it usually refers to theoretical possibility.

Rewrite the following sentences, using can, could,may or might.

He is in poor health. It is possible for him to fall ill at any time.

Answer: He is in poor health. He could/may/might/can fall ill at any time.

(In a positive statement, can refers to theoretical possibility.)

John looks pale today. It is possible that he is ill.

Answer: John looks pale today. He may be ill.

(In a positive statement, may refers to factual possibility.)

I know how to answer the question now.

Answer: I can answer the question now.

Students were allowed to refer to dictionaries in the exam.

Answer: Students could refer to dictionaries in the exam.

Substitution

Substitution is a grammatical device for avoiding repetition and achieving textual cohesion. There are three kinds of substitution: nominal substitution, verbal substitution, and clausal substitution.

For example:

There are good films as well as bad ones. (nominal substitution)

I hate hypocrisy. Actually, everyone does. (verbal substitution)

A: Do you think he will come tomorrow?

B: Yes, I think so. / No, I think not. (clausal substitution)

Practice: Complete the sentences with so, do, one or not.

A: What about going there in your car?

B: My car is too small. Let’s rent a bigger _________.

A: I always forget to lock the door.

B: So __________ I.

A: Will your flight be cancelled because of the bad weather?

B: I hope _________.

A: Will there be a storm soon?

B: I am afraid _________.

A: Tom is not working conscientiously.

B: __________ I’ve noticed.

Keys: 1. one 2. do 3. not 4. so 5. So

3) so, such

Both so and such are used to emphasize the great degree of sth. and appear in the construction so /such … that to introduce adverbial clauses of result. So, as an adverb, is usually followed by adjectives, while such, a determiner or pronoun, can only precede nouns or noun phrases.

For example:

The accident was so terrible that we can’t talk about it.

It is such a terrible accident that we can’t talk about it.

It is such a surprise that I can’t get over it.

It is so surprising that I can’t get over it.

IV. Exercises for integrated skills

I Dictation

Body language is the unspoken communication / that goes on in every face-to-face encounter with another human being. / It tells you their true feelings towards you / and how well your words are being received. / Between 60 – 80% of our message / is communicated through our body language, / only 7 – 10% is attributable to the actual words of a conversation.

Your ability to read and understand another person’s body language/ can mean the difference / between making a great impression/ or a very bad one! / It could help you in a job interview, / at a meeting, / or for a special date!

Every one of us / has experienced the feeling of an instant like / or dislike of someone / but without necessarily knowing why. / We just weren’t happy,/ there was something about them. / We often refer to this as a hunch or gut feelings, / two descriptions directly relating to our own body’s physiological reaction.

II. Fill in each blank in the passage below with ONE appropriate word.

Human beings are able to communicate ________ (1) a variety of ways besides the use of words. This type of communication is referred to ________ (2) non-verbal communication.

Perhaps the most prevalent form of non-verbal communication is body language. Among humans, body language accounts ________ (3) a large part of meaningful communication. The way we sit, stand, gesture, or orient ourselves in a group often helps others make accurate

________ (4) about our thoughts, feelings and intentions. Mannerisms such as a clenched jaw, narrowed eyes, or slumped posture can be interpreted ________ (5) conveying anger, distrust, or disinterest. On the other hand, steady eye contact, a tilted ________ (6), and a reassuring smile can demonstrate interest and empathy.

As we develop a greater sensitivity ________ (7) body language and its implications, we can be more in tune ________ (8) the thoughts and feelings of others. We can also become more certain that the messages we are communicating are the ones we intended to convey.

1. in

2. as

3. for

4. judgments

5. as

6. head

7. to

8. with

A preposition is missing before “ways”, with which “in” habitually collocates.

A preposition is needed here, while “refer to ... as” is a fixed collocation.

Inferred from the context, the sentence means “body language makes up a large part of meaningful communication”, and “account for”, which means “to be a particular amount or part of sth.” fits in the text.

It can be inferred from the context that people”s body language reveals their thoughts, hence helping others make “judgments” about the feelings and intentions.

After the verb “interpret”, “as” habitually follows, as in the phrase “interpret ... as …”.

As can be drawn from the previous text, body language refers to “the way we sit, stand, gesture, or orient ourselves”. The missing word here should be a noun denoting a body part like “eye”, which can be tilted, and “head” comes out as a naturally tilted one.

Again, this blank tests on the usage of prepositions. “To” usually follows “sensitivity” as in “be sensitive to sth.”.

A preposition is missing between “in tune” and “the thoughts and feelings”, and “in tune with” means “be in agreement with”, which expresses the meaning.

V. Oral activities

1. Giving a talk

Topic A: My Experience in the Railway Station

Key words and phrases: crowds, long queues, swarm, packed, anxious, push, bump into, fidgety, tread, wedge, annoy, jump the queue, cry, hugger-mugger, mess, shove, glare

Topic B: Respecting Personal Space in the Public Space — My Opinion on Privacy

Key words and phrases: public space, expansionist, breathe down my neck, spread, tread, stake a claim, elbow room, trespass, aggressive, stick to, leave room, good manners, mutual respect

Having a discussion

Topic A: A Comparison between Chinese and Americans in terms of Personal Space

Topic B: A Comparison of Personal Space in Different Parts of China

Topic C: What Influences Personal Space?

Viewpoints:

The concept of personal space varies with the culture, either nationally or locally, and the population (dense versus sparse), opinions about intimacy, customs, etc., can all exert an impact on people’s behavior concerning personal space. Social factors, such as the interpersonal relationship, gender, age, etc., can also affect personal space.

VI. Writing

Suggestion:You may organize the essay into three paragraphs. The first paragraph is largely descriptive, and a delicate employment of verbs is recommended to add vividness to the description of actions. The second paragraph is a further analysis based on the previous part. The last paragraph is where you present your opinion about what is proper behavior.

Practice:

Write a three-paragraph essay on what you see on a busy street in the morning rush hour. Describe the sit uation and people’s behavior (e.g. cars, pedestrians, etc.) in the first paragraph, and present your analysis on the causes of the situation in the second paragraph and your opinion about the right behavior in the last paragraph.

Book one Unit 6 Animal Intelligence Text A The first time: The first period: I. Preview: 1. Let the students be familiar with some important words and phrases in Text A, which will enable them to better understand the text: controversy, encounter, convince, suspicious, blank, relieve, figure out, assess, inaccessible, release, deceive and wipe out. 2. Ask the students to search for some information about animal intelligence through Internet or the Encyclopedia while keeping the question in mind that whether animals do have intelligence and what kind of presentation they may show. 3. Read Text A in general and paragraph 5&6 in Text B. II. Check the homework left last time when the fifth unit was finished. III. Introductory remarks (T s’ words): In unit 5, we’ve talked about romance. Of course, it’s about the romance of us human beings. But, do we believe that animals will also fall in love? In this unit, Text B, we have examples showing that animals do have certain affections to the one of the same kind but the opposite sex. As we’ve read paragraphs 5&6 in Text B, the point has been proved in someway. Well, from the stories, we see that animals really have their own way of thinking. But, what animals really think? Do they have intelligence as we do? IV. Check the preview work through discussion: 1. What’s the meaning of intelligence? And, what about animal intelligence? →Intelligence refers to the power of perceiving, learning, understanding, and knowing. It also means mental ability. As for animal intelligence, it involves such factors as the ability to learn, to solve new problems, or to create novel solut ions to familiar problems and reasoning. The last one means that some animals have the ability to benefit from the experiences of others. That’s what we can find in the third story in Text A, that Towan is clever to do the similar trick as Melati. 2. Ask Ss to tell some interesting stories concerning animals’ presentation of intelligence. Here are also two samples. →Story one: My parents once raised a dog named Doudou. One day, my father left his coat behind in the scallion field. Doudou stayed beside the coat until my father returned to the scallion field and looked for his coat. Then, he went home happily together with my father. Story two: Once in Y unnan Province, a boa saved the son of his master from a river. Ts may list some other animal behaviors to arouse the Ss’ interests: E.g.: Bees communicate a food source to other members of the hive by means of various “dancing”. Some other species can communicate by sight, taste or odor, electrical impulse (fish), or touch, and many animals have more than one system. Conclusion: From all above, we find that animals do display intelligence in some areas. Let’s read the text and find more examples of animal intelligence. V. Global reading tasks.
