    3、可以表达情感,交流思想和交换信息。然而,在过去很久时间里,人们只注重口语的重要性而忽略了肢体语言和它的独一性。本文致力于中美肢体语言的对比,来减少交流中的麻烦,进行更有效的交际。Abstract : The communication between people can not only through the spoken language, but also through the body language. As spoken language, body language can express feelings, exchange ideas and communicate in

    4、formations. However, in a long past time, people only pay attention to the importance of the spoken language, and ignore body language and its unique cultural connotation. This paper focus on the comparison of different and similar body language between China and American so that people can reduce t

    5、he communication obstacles and promote efficient communication.Keywords : body language , cultural difference , China , American, communications41. IntroductionBody language is a means to use the body movements or actions to replace or assist the sound, oral language, or other means of communication

    6、 to communicate with others. And through peoples body language we can get some information about their own culture. Psychologists believed that the information delivered by a persons appearance and actions is much more than that of a persons words. Albert Mebrabian, after a long-time study, conclude

    7、d that body language can help verbal-express achieve more effective communication. Body language can reveal peoples hidden mind and emotion, Bird Whistell who is the leader in study of body language in the west. He believes that among all means of expressing emotion and attitude, more than sixty per

    8、cent is finished by facial expression, gestures, postures.2. Classifications of body languagePsychologists believe that body language includes the following aspects:2.1 facial expression and eye languageThe face has been called an ”organ of emotion”. Compare with words, facial expression is a natura

    9、l way to reveal persons emotion. The face is the most simple and important broadcaster of emotion. For example , Eye behavior is an important part of facial expression. People often say that eyes are the window of soul, because eyes can give us a lot of real information. We can know whether people l

    10、ike us or not from the way they look at us .And through ones eyes we can know whether the pay attention to our topics or not.2.2 gestures5Everybody uses their hands to communicate with other people .People can convey ideas, information and message by using the movement and style of hands and fingers

    11、. Whats most directly, we use our thumb to praise other and use our middle finger to despise someone. When expressing doubt or helplessness, westerners like to shrug their shoulders and spread out hands, but Chinese people only wave their hands simply. 2.3 PosturesPosture can give others many messag

    12、es. which is a matter of how people sit, stand, walk and move. From peoples posture, we can conclude something.For instance, when we see a person doesnt stand up and tall, we say the person is not energetic, competent and unconfident. On the other hand, we can conclude that a person is not concentra

    13、ted in what they are discussing if he standing lazily, and so on.3. Similarities of body language in Chinese and American cultureFirst ,we discuss the similarities of body language in china and America .For instance:3.1 facial expressions(1) Knit ones brows said he is unhappy ,you shouldnt talk to h

    14、im too long.(2) Shrugged his nose means he dont like what he see or what you do. Gnash his teeth means he is angry or make up his mind. 3.2 Sign language(1) The signal “V” means “victory” .When someone succeed or overcome 6some difficulties , someone usually do this gesture.(2) “OK” means “consent”.

    15、 we often use it to show our positive ideas. And when someone dont like your idea ,he just shaking his head and say “No”.3.3 Postures(1) When a man meet another man ,they generally shake hands to express their friendly.(2) Waved hands means goodbye, Shrug ones shoulders means negative, uninteresting

    16、. we use it to show that we dont know when asked by others in our daily life.4. Differences of body language in Chinese and American cultureDont understand body languages from different culture will bring about a lot of misunderstanding and conflicts. Therefore, it is of great importance for us to u

    17、nderstand the body language in intercultural communication. For instance:4.1 Eye language and facial expressionsAmerican people have an old proverb: Never trust a person who cant look you in the eyes. While the Chinese people in conversation, the two sides are not necessarily time to time to look at

    18、 each other, some people have also deliberately avoided continued eye contact to show humility, obedience or respect. This may be one of the reasons that the American people in China think Chinese are not warm and friendly; but also explain why the American people like to talk face to face, and the

    19、Chinese people tend to have a heart-to-heart talk. It is a habit of American people that the two sides look at each other 7while they are talking, but they hate staring, because in their view this is a very rude behavior. American people find that they are as statues of rare animal camel being looke

    20、d up and down, and the stare at them makes them feel very angry. However, to gaze at people in China, sometimes means only a curiosity and surprise, not rude.4. 2 gesturesThe implication of gestures is diversity, especially in cultural differences. Here we will take some gestures for example. (1) Am

    21、erican people with the thumb and index finger to form a circle, means “OK”, but in China the “O” gesture is often used to represent the “zero”.(2) Indicate the number “3”, the Chinese people have thumb and index finger form a circle fingertips phase, the other three fingers stretched open; the Ameri

    22、can people straight index finger, middle finger and ring finger, little finger to thumb catch.(3) The “V” gesture, In America, it means victory but not the number. In China, sometimes, people think that this gesture means the number “2”.(4) American require a lift, the gesture is thumb-up when facin

    23、g a coming traffic; in China, facing a vehicle, riders stretch one arm to the side, palm forward, make a “stop” gesture, or holding the right hand or both hands, say hello to the driver.4. 3 Postures(1) In intercultural communication, the presentation of posture also reflects the differences between

    24、 Chinese and American, such as, according to 8the Chinese tradition, the seated person is the dominator, so the young generations always give up their seat to the old. However, in America, it is quite opposite. Western culture emphasizes the “Ladies first”, so it is a courtesy that Ms. seated before

    25、 the men pulled out a chair obligation to help them, and this is also a cultured, civilized performance. (2) Moreover, in the classroom, the Chinese teacher questions, students usually stand up and answer the questions; in the U.S., students generally sit to answer the United States teachers.(3) Ame

    26、rican people stood stamping their feet, means impatient; Chinese stomping, shows angry, angry, frustrated, and regret. (4) American people are standing and walking with the posture of athletes and military, standing up tall, swaggering, big strides forward; in the eyes of Americans, Chinese with sta

    27、ndard posture of scholars and civilians.5. ConclusionFrom the above, we have studied the differences and similarities of body language used by Chinese and American. We can see that body language cannot be separated from culture. In intercultural communication, we not only pay attention to the verbal

    28、 language study, but also emphasize the study of body language. Body language is the signal and tool of human communication and human being has the same ancestors, so In order to make a successful intercultural communication, we should know the body language of different cultures.9Reference1.张爱琳, (2010) , 跨文化交际 ,重庆大学出版社;2.陈邦玲,(2004),非语言交际在跨文化交际中的作用,安徽农业大学学报;3.贾玉新,(1997),跨文化交际学.上海外语教育出版社;4.刘慧,(2008),身体语言的魅力。中国三峡出版社;5.徐小丹,(2004),跨文化交际中的非语言交际。黑龙江社会科学出版社;6.张健青,(2004),浅谈身势语 。基础英语教育出版社;7.Allan Pease,.( 2002) , Body Language ,.
