The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which words do not carry. For example,
2、 the body distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, while the South American often considers the North American to be “cold“ or “distant“ because he keeps a
3、greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to . The “eye contact“ provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication. Scientists have observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people who dont like each ot
4、her. The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about. On the other hand, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable. The eyes apparently play a great part in nonverbal communication. Genuine
5、 warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of friendliness.

To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much. But scientific evidence does
10、 little to support this idea. Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didnt watch television. Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that
11、 fatter people do not eat more on the average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as the 1979 study of 3,545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people. Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a resear
12、ch group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts: The more the men ran, the more body fat they lost. The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate.

17、 I always encourage such people, but I also explain that theres a big difference between “being a writer“ and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. “Youve got to want to write,“ I say to them, “not want to be a writer“. The
18、 reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance(自由栏目 )writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a
19、 friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didnt even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom.
