　　A smile is a strong sign of a friendly and open attitude and a willingness to communicate. It is a positive, silent sign sent with the hope the other person will smile back. When you smile, you
　　show you have noticed the person in a positive way. The result? That person will usually smile back.
　　You might not realize a closed position is the cause of many conversational problems. A common closed position is sitting with your arms and legs crossed and your hand covering your mouth or chin. This is often called the "thinking pose". Ask yourself this question: Are you going to interrupt someone who appears .to be deep in thought? This position gives off "stay away" signs and prevents your main "sign sender" ( your mouth) from being seen by others looking for inviting conversational signs.
　　The open body position is most effective when you place yourself within communicating distance of the other person--that is, within about five feet. Take care, however, not to enter someone's "personal space" by getting too close, too soon.
　　Leaning forward a little while a person is talking shows your interest and how you are listening to what the person is saying. By doing this, you are saying: I hear what you're saying, and I'm interested in--keep talking!
　　Often people will lean back with their hands over their mouth, chin, or behind their head in the "thinking" pose. This position gives off signs of judgment, doubt, and lack of interest from the listener. Since most people do not feel comfortable when they think they are being judged, this leaning-back position serves to prevent the speaker from continuing.
　　In many cultures the most common form of first contact between two people is a handshake. Be the first to extend your hand in greeting. Couple this with a friendly "Hello", a nice smile, and your name and you have made the first step to open the lines of communication.
　　Eye contact should be natural, not forced or overdone. Direct eye contact shows you are listening to the other person and that you want to know about her.

　　答案及解析
　　31.【答案】C
　　【题型】推理题
　　【解析】题干意为“一个人微笑表示什么?”从文章一、段一、句话“A smile is a strong sign of a friendly and open attitude and a willingness to communicate.”可以看出，微笑是友好、开放、乐意交流的强烈信号，因此可判断正确答案为C。

　　32.【答案】A
　　【题型】细节题
　　【解析】题干意为“根据文章，交流中的麻烦可能是由于什么造成的?”由文章第二段一句话中的“a closed position is the cause of many conversational problems”可以看出答案为A。
　　33.【答案】D
　　【题型】推理题
　　【解析】题干意为“当别人在说话时，你双手放在脑袋后面，身体向后仰，陷入沉思，这会怎样?”这道题需要把四个选项和原文逐一对比、逐一排除。从文章第五段前两句“0ften people will lean back with their hands...or behind their head in the“thinkin9”pose.This position gives off signs of...lack of interest from the listener.”，因此可见正确答案为D。
　　34.【答案】B
　　【题型】细节题
　　【解析】题干意为“以下所有的姿势中，除了哪一种以外其他姿势都有助于交流?”文章第二段第二句话中谈到“A common closed position is sitting with your allns and legs crossed...”因此8双臂交叉是一种封闭姿势，阻碍交流，所以正确答案为8。
　　35.【答案】C
　　【题型】推理题
　　【解析】题干意为“从这篇文章中我们可以知道什么?”A交流几乎不靠口头语言，大部分靠肢体语言，B姿势总是会阻碍“信号发出器” (嘴巴)，c我们应该多注意肢体语言，D眼神交流总是有帮助。A、B、D都过于**，c贴切文意。故正确答案为c。
