| When you don"t speak, you may be still communicating. It is true that you may not wish to say anything. But your very silence may show your wish to be left alone or to stay uninvolved (不参与的), which is the message you want to send. So it has been said that while we speak with our vocal organs (发声器官), we converse with our whole bodies. All of us communicate with one another nonverbally, as well as with words. Sometimes we know what we"re doing, as with the use of gestures such as the thumbs-up sign to indicate (表明) that we approve (赞成).But most of the time we"re not aware (意识到的) that we are doing it. Body language serves a variety of purposes. Firstly it can replace verbal communication, as with the use of gesture. Secondly, it can modify (修饰) verbal communication. Loudness and tone of voice is an example here. Thirdly it regulates (约束) social interaction: taking turns is largely governed by non-verbal signals. Fourthly it conveys (表达) our emotions. Finally it conveys our attitude towards ourselves and towards the people we are communicating with. This is particularly important for successful cross-cultural communications. Every culture has its own body language. So in order to achieve a more successful cross-cultural communication, we heed (留意) not only what to say but also how to say it appropriately. Observation shows that a truly bilingual (会说两种语言的) person switches (转换) his body language at the same time he switches languages. | |||

| Barcelona is regarded as Spain"s second city, behind capital Madrid. The city is rich in history. Barcelona was founded by Carthaginians and according to tradition, it got its name from the great Barker family of ancient Carpage. After numerous different conquers, including the Romans and the Moores that seriously damaged the city, the Argons made Catalonia, of which Barcelona was the capital. Strong and prosperous, since the 1970s, the city has formed its Catalon background. But it wasn"t until the summer Olympics in 1992 that Barcelona became the modern, lively city that it still is today. And with this prosperity have come wonderful hotels. The Raewon Callas the 1st was opened in 1992, by the King and Queen of Spain. With buildings like the Casa Cal Bain and the Casa Minga, Antony Gaudy is believed to have made great impact on the image of Barcelona. He also built the fantastic Park Quell. Antony Gaudy died in 1926, leaving an unfinished cathedral as his epitaph (墓志铭). There are the attractions of coming to Barcelona? There are many, many different attractions: culture, leisure, monuments, our architecture, and the gastronomy (美食). Barcelona has commercial areas and shopping areas of five kilometers that goes around to the sea to the north. You can also see our architecture, our monuments, our museums, and our restaurants. So there is a mix between shopping and services. One label that"s hot among fashion consciousness is MIRO, and these trendy designs of clothing and shoes originate in Barcelona. The region itself now produces for other international labels, like for the Gallic giant Lacose. No visit to the city would be complete without a tour of the Nou Camp, the home of one of Spain"s finest teams, Barcelona Football Club. FC Barcelona was founded in 1899 along with the other Spanish team, Real Madrid. It"s one of the greatest football teams in Europe. With players like Maradona and Ronaldo having played for Barca, it"s easy to explain their success! FC Barcelona is known to have won more cups than any other team in European football history. The stadium, the Nou Camp, can hold one hundred and twelve thousand people, making it one of the greatest places to watch and play "the beautiful game". | |||

| Edinburgh is one of Scotland"s two big cities, the capital. It is affectionately known and has enormous historical significance. Situated on the east coast of Scotland, Edinburgh proudly offers a window to past. Indeed Edinburgh has been Scotland"s royal city since 1437. Most of Edinburgh"s sights are contained within two districts: the old town and the contrasting new town. The largely medieval Royal Mile which stretches for a statute (法定的)mile and the 107 yards from Edinburgh Castle to the Palace of Hollyroodhouse, dominates the city"s central area. The Royal Mile has been quoted as being: The largest, longest and finest street for buildings and density of inhabitants, not only in Britain, but in the world. To millions of visitors, Edinburgh Castle is a must see because there are many treasures. Princess Street is located in Edinburgh"s new town directly below the castle. Next to Princess Street, in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle lies the broad green Princess Street Gardens. This is one of the most delightful gardens I have even visited. Another marvelous site to visit is Calton Hill. I sat for hours on it, just happy to breathe the fresh air. I stayed in Edinburgh for about two weeks and never tired of the cityscape. I must admit the Edinburgh is really a place no traveler will cross out from the traveling list. | |||
