Unit2 Body language

Debbie and Simon are students. They both have part-time jobs at a travelcompany.  

A well-dressed lady entered the office. She looked at Debbie and Simon, and then walked

 over to Debbie. Debbie gave her a cheerful greeting.  

Simon sighed and walked away. 

“What’s the matter” Mr Yang asked. 

“People always choose Debbie instead of me. I don’t understand.”

 “I do. It's the way you communicate.” 

“How can that be”Simon asked, “I don't get a chance to speak.” 

“Communicating is more than just speaking. Your body language is important, too.” 

 “Body language” 

“It's the way you stand and sit. It's your gestures and the expression on your face. Your 

whole appearance communicates things. You don’t give people a good impression, Simon. You 

look down, you never smile and you don’t turn your head towards them.” 

"Look at Debbie. She’s holding her head up. She always smiles and looks friendly. Her body language is making people feel welcome, so they go to her for help.” 

Simon decided to improve his body language. He sat up straight and tried smiling at people.

Minutes later, a beautiful girl entered. She walked over to Simon. A few moments later, she left 

with a smile. 

Mr Yang came over at once and said, “You made a good impression on her, Simon.” 

“That was my sister,” Simon said. “She wanted to remind me that tomorrow is her birthday.”

Unit3 Traditional skills

Fishingwithbirds

Wang Damin is a fisherman. Although he is over 65, he is very fit and still enjoys working.

Damin uses cormorants to catch fish. Cormorants are large black birds. They are good at 

catching fish because they can swim well. They can dive down and stay under the water for up to 

two minutes. 

Damin usually sets off in the late afternoon and gets the cormorants ready for work. First, he 

ties a piece of grass around their necks to stop them from eating big fish. Then when Damin’s boat

reaches the right place in the river, he pushed them into the river. Damin uses several ways to 

attract fish. During the day, he jumps up and down on his boat. After dark, he hangs a light on a 

post at the front of the boat. The cormorants bring the fish back to the boat. The fish are then taken and thrown into a big basket by Damin. No nets are required for this type of fishing. 

Cormorant fishing was once practiced in lots of places in South-East China, and there were many 

fishermen in the area. But today, few young people are interested in it. In 50 years, perhaps there will be no more cormorant fishermen in the world.
