问题     All of us communicate with one another verbally (口头的) as well as non-verbally. Most of the time we are not aware that we’re doing it. We wave a hand, meet someone else’s eyes or look away, shift positions in a chair. We make these movements unconsciously. But researchers have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent (一致的) and comprehensible as language.
    Every culture has its body language. The way an Englishman crosses his legs is nothing like the way a male American does it. In talking, Americans are likely to end a statement with a lowering of the eyelids. They conclude a question with a lift of the hand or a widening of the eyes. With a future-tense verb they often gesture with a forward movement. There are regional idioms too. Your sex, ethnic background, social class and personal style all influence your body language. Nevertheless, you move and gesture within a certain idiom.
    Usually, the wordless communication acts to qualify the words. What the non-verbal elements express very often, and very efficiently, is the emotional side of the message. When a person feels liked or disliked, often it’s a case of "not what he said but the way he said it."
    Experts in the study of communication through body movement are not prepared to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an American rubs his nose, it may mean he is disagreeing with someone or rejecting something. But there are other possible interpretations, too. The expert looks for patterns in the context, not for an isolated meaningful gesture.
In paragraph 3, which of the following does NOT influence one’s body language?

选项 A、Sex.
B、Educational background.
C、Social status.
D、Personal style.

答案B

解析 事实细节题。根据第二段第七句的内容,可以判断只有选项B(教育背景)不会影响我们的非言语交际,因此为正确答案。选项A(性别)、选项C(社会地位)和选项D(个人风格)都会影响我们的非言语交际,因此不符合题目要求,为错误选项。
