IV – Read the following passage and choose the best answer:

Movements and gestures by the hands, arms, legs, and other parts of the body and face are the

there are over 200.000 physical signs capable of stimulating meaning in another person For

example, there are 23 distinct eyebrow movements, each capable of stimulating a different meaning.

Humans express attitudes toward themselves and vividly through body movements and postures.Body movements express true messages about feelings that cannot be masked Because suchavenues of communication are visual, they travel much farther than spoken words and are unaffected

by the presence of noise that interrupt, or cancels out speech

People communicate by the way they walk, stand, and sit We tend to be more relaxed withfriends or when addressing those of lower status Body orientation also indicates status or liking ofthe other individual More direct orientation is related to a more positive attitude

Body movements and postures alone have no exact meaning, but they can greatly support orreject the spoken word If these two means of communication are dichotomized and contradict eachother, some result will be a disordered image and most often the non-verbal will dominate
