Do you know that body language accounts for over 90% of a convention? That's why communicating face to face is always better than a telephone conversation 　　　 if you are trying to sell something!

Your body language will give others a general 　　　 　 of you and it will also show your emotions. It's very difficult to make your body 　　　 . It's easy to tell the difference between a 　 　　　 　 smile of pleasure and a false smile. So if you understand body language codes (密码), it is usually possible to know what someone really 　 　　　 , whatever they may be saying with 　 　　　 .

Although much of our body language is universal, a lot is also 　 　　　 . Culture codes vary from one country to another and they can 　 　　　 misunderstandings. Even simple gestures may have a completely different meaning in other parts of the world. For example, the circle 　 　　　 made with three raised fingers means " OK" in the United States. But it is not universal. In Brazil, Greece and Germany it is a 　 　　　 gesture showing disrespect and in Japan it means "money"!

In many Asian cultures, it is not appropriate for men and women to touch in public. Therefore, displays of affection such as 　 　　　 　 hands or kissing are not　 　　　 . In some parts of Asia, 　　　 , it is common for people of the same sex to hold hands as a sign of 　 　　　 .

Greetings vary according to the country and the sex of the people involved. In the west, it is appropriate to shake hands when you 　　　 　 someone for the first time and both men and women can 　 　　　 　 a handshake. In Indonesia, for example, a man will not offer a handshake to an Indonesian woman 　 　　　 they are in a business situation.

If you want to avoid making 　 　　　 　　 mistakes when you travel to other countries, you should 　　　 their basic cultures before you leave. If you do this, you are less likely to 　 　　　 　 people.

If you have never ever heard of pawpaw，you are not alone. Most Americans do not know of the fruit，although it is native to the United States. Once，however，it was one of the most popular fruits in North America. Happily，those who love the pawpaw are trying to return it to its former position in American foods.

The pawpaw is a kind of fruit that grows on trees found all over the eastern United States. It is similar in size to a typical mango. It has a dull green-colored skin，and a soft，almost creamy orange inside. Most people agree that the pawpaw tastes like a combination of bananas，apricots （杏）and mangos. Most people are very surprised by its sweet taste. The fruit has a very short harvest season，from two to three weeks in September and October.

The pawpaw has never been sold commercially. The fruit requires a very special environment-low，wet areas that sometimes flood. In addition，the fruit is good to eat for only two to three days after harvesting. This makes it hard to sell anywhere distant from the pawpaw trees.

Planters are again growing pawpaw trees and harvesting the fruit. In several states farmers have organized “pawpaw festivals” to reintroduce the food to people.

Farmers are trying to grow different kinds of paw paws that will be easier to ship and sell commercially. Donna and Jim Davis are pawpaw farmers in Westminster，Maryland. They told National Public Radio that they purchased their pawpaw trees in the 1990s and now sell the fruit at farmer markets and online.

So, who knows? Maybe the pawpaw will show up soon at a market near you.

1.What is the pawpaw's most outstanding nature?

A. It grows on trees all over the US.

B. Its sour taste is like an apricot.

C. It looks like a combination of bananas and mangos.

D. It is very rich in sugar.

2.Why is it difficult for the pawpaw to become a big business?

A. It has to be sold far from the pawpaw tree.

B. It is difficult to harvest in the low and wet areas.

C. It is hard to keep its freshness for long.

D. It needs expensive transportation to the market.

3.What do farmers do to deal with the disadvantage of paw paws?

A. They advertise on National Public Radio.

B. They plant improved pawpaw trees.

C. They organize pawpaw festivals.

D. They sell the fruit at farmer markets.

4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. A forgotten American fruit is becoming popular again.

B. Fruit of pawpaw plays an important part in America.

C. Most people have hardly eaten fresh paw paws.

D. A traditional fruit has changed people's diet.

Do you think you could learn a language in an hour?

We know, we know! We would expect you to be skeptical. It’s ridiculous to think you can learn a language in 60 minutes. You wouldn’t even get through the As in a bilingual dictionary in that amount of time! Best-case situation: in an hour, most of us could probably stuff a few words and ready-made phrases into our short-term memory (with a high likelihood of forgetting it all by the following day). Accomplishing anything more than that in one hour? Impossible. Unless…

We posed the one-hour language challenge to four polyglots(通晓数种语言的人) who are experts on how to study languages. To keep the challenge from becoming completely impossible, we gave them a bit of a break: to learn Romanian in one hour. Why Romanian? Because it’s a Romance language and shares many similarities with the languages that the polyglots already know: French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese. And to make sure their hour of learning was as effective as possible, all of them were assigned a personal Romanian tutor to help coach them on their way to success.

Although each polyglot has a different technique for picking up and remembering a new language, all four methods offer valuable insights to anyone, from casual learners to hard-core language enthusiasts.

Alex Rawlings — UK

"I’m a bit nervous. This is probably the craziest language-learning thing I’ve ever done, but learning languages has always been about fun. I expect that, after this, I’ll be prepared to have a simple chat over a coffee in Romanian. Is that reasonable?"

Method: Learn the verbs first

With only an hour until he had to start demonstrating his grasp of Romanian, Alex knew he had to start talking quickly. He chose to focus first on commonly used verbs and how to conjugate（动词变形） them. Once he had some verbs down, he could start collecting nouns from his tutor and plugging them in to make more interesting and relevant sentences.

Luca Lampariello — Italy

"Every time I have a conversation with native speakers, it really motivates me. Human contact is really important when learning a language."

Method: Start speaking right away

Speaking doesn’t mean speaking perfectly. Speaking even a little bit is a huge confidence boost. When you can say something in a new language and people actually understand you, it’s very motivating. Yes, you’ll make mistakes, but you’ll also learn faster than if you try to get it all perfect in your head first.

Michael Youlden — UK

"We all speak a variety of Romance languages which I think will help us get into Romanian quickly."

Method: Write everything down

Language learning is about recall; there’s no use learning something if you don’t remember it. Speaking new words aloud is very important, but so is writing them down — after all, words exist as sounds and in written form. Taking notes is a proven way to put new vocabulary and grammar into your memory. Writing supports memorizing which supports speaking... it’s a cycle. Plus, you have an easy reference when you want to review what you’ve learned.

Matthew Youlden — UK

"I’m going to look for the patterns and similarities with languages I already know. We won’t be able to speak fluently after an hour of study, but we should be able to get by with some basic vocabulary and phrases."

Method: Look for cognates

Cognates are words in different languages that look and sound similar and have the same meaning, due to a common origin. Almost every language combination contains cognates (even if two languages aren’t seemingly related), but languages from the same language family have many more. Whichever language you are learning, identify the familiar words and then use them to anchor the new words that aren’t so familiar. To use English as an example, because it’s a sort of Germanic-Romance hybrid, English already has many words that cognate with German, Dutch and Swedish on one hand, and on the other hand it also has lots of words that cognate with French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and, of course, Romanian!
