IX Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
Communication in general is process of sending and receiving messages that enableshumans to share knowledge, attitudes, and skills Although we usually identifycommunication with speech, communication is composed of two dimensions - verbal andnonverbal
Nonverbal communication has been defined as communication without words Itincludes apparent behaviors such as facial expressions, eyes, touching, tone of voice, aswell as less obvious messages such as dress, posture and spatial distance between two
or more people
Trang 12Activity or inactivity, words or silence all have message value: they influence othersand these others, in turn, respond to these communications and thus they arecommunicating.
Commonly, nonverbal communication is learned shortly after birth and practiced andrefined throughout a person's lifetime Children first learn nonverbal expressions bywatching and imitating, much as they learn verbal skills
Young children know far more than they can verbalize and are generally more adept at
reading nonverbal cues than adults are because of their limited verbal skills and their
recent reliance on the nonverbal to communicate As children develop verbal skills,nonverbal channels of communication do' not cease to exist although become entwined inthe total communication process
1 According to the writer, _
A Nonverbal language is only used by the deaf and the mute
B One cannot communicate in both verbal and nonverbal language
C Those who can listen and talk should not use nonverbal language
D People communicate with both verbal and nonverbal language.
2 Which is not included in nonverbal communication?
A words B spatial distance C facial expressions D tone of voice
3 We can learn from the text that _
A nonverbal can never get any responses B most people do not like nonverbal communication
C even silence has message value D touching is not accepted in communicating
4 Human beings _
A have learnt how to communicate in nonverbal language through books
B can communicate in nonverbal language only when they are mature
C have learnt how to communicate in nonverbal language since a child
