（2）discuss the following questions with your partner.（p59）
1. can you guess what someone is thinking or feeling by looking at his or her body language?
yes： a person's body language can tell us what he or she is feeling. for example, if someone is nervous, his or her hands may shake. if a person smiles but his or her eyes don't look happy, we can guess that there is something wrong.
no： it is difficult to tell what a person is thinking by looking at their body language. people use body language in different ways and gestures may have different meanings in different areas. people don't always think about their body language, so we may misunderstand them if we try to guess what they are thinking or feeling. it is also possible for people to learn to use their body language to hide what they are really feeling or thinking.
2. do people from different parts of the world use different body language? what about people who live in different parts of china?
i think people from different parts of the world and from different parts of china use the same body language. for example, waving one's hand is to say “goodbye” in both our country and foreign countries.
