Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1._A smile is a strong sign of a friendly and open attitude and a willingness to communicate. It is a posit

31、ive, silent sign sent with the hope the other person will smile back. When you smile, you show you have noticed the person in a positive way. The result? That person will usually smile back. You might not realize a closed position is the cause of many conversational problems. A common closed positio

32、n is sitting with your arms and legs crossed and your hand covering your mouth or chin. This is often called the “thinking pose“. Ask yourself this question: Are you going to interrupt someone who appears to be deep in thought? This position gives off “stay away“ signs and prevents your main “ sign

33、sender“(your mouth)from being seen by others looking for inviting conversational signs. The open body position is most effective when you place yourself within communicating distance of the other personthat is, within about five feet. Take care, however, not to enter someone s “personal space“ by ge

34、tting too close, too soon. Leaning forward a little while a person is talking shows your interest and how you are listening to what the person is saying. By doing this, you are saying: I hear what you re saying, and I m interested inkeep talking! Often people will lean back with their hands over the

35、ir mouth, chin, or behind their head in the “thinking“ pose. This position gives off signs of judgment, doubt, and lack of interest from the listener.

36、uing. In many cultures the most common form of first contact between two people is a handshake. Be the first to extend your hand in greeting. Couple this with a friendly “Hello“ , a nice smile, and your name and you have made the first step to open the lines of communication. Eye contact should be n

37、atural, not forced or overdone.

41、act is always helpfulIt was fifteen past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she was going to work. Her bus had inched along through the heavy traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day. Once inside the l

42、obby, she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one going to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked “ Smith Enterprise“ , she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no reply. She tapped on the door a-gain, but still there was

43、 no answer. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in.

In the front of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her. Then one of the men looked a

45、t his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their desks, and in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was

46、 her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. Smith, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realized that the day s work in the office began just before Mr. Smith arrived.
