We use both words and body language to express our thoughts and opinions and to communicate with other people.We can learn a lot about what a person is thinking by watching his or her body .language.Words are important，but the way a person stands，folds his or her arms，or moves his or her hands can also give us information about his or her feelings.
   How close we stand to other people when we are talking varies（不同） greatly from one culture to another.This is because different people have different "comfort zones".For example.American businessmen usually like to sit across from each other.Japanese businessmen，on the other hand，prefer to sit next to each other and use less contact than Americans.Again，a comfortable "talking space" for Latin Americans about one-and-a-half feet away from the other person.However，for many Northern Europeans，this is too close.They prefer to keep about thee-feet between speakers.Such differences can create communication problems.Latin Americans often say that the British and Americans are cold and unfriendly.On the other hand，the British and Americans often see other cultures as aggressive In both examples，the problem is caused by different ideas about personal space.If you stand too close or too far from someone，you might give a wrong idea.For example，some people might stand back to make more space.Maybe they're only moving into their comfort zones，but the other person might think they're being distant and impolite.
