Four Most Important Eye Expressions
The language of our eyes is one of the most powerful and useful tools of non-verbal (非语言的) communication. ___36___. The following are four most important eye expressions that we see every day.
1. ___37___
Researchers have long noticed that a sincere smile starts with our eyes. When we are sincerely happy, the skin around the corners of our eyes wrinkles (起皱纹). But a social, polite smile touches only our lips (嘴唇). The smile you are given is not in the eyes. For example, when a shop assistant smiles at you, offering help , you will immediately get the feeling that they are just trying to sell you something.
2. Shy eyes
People who avoid eye contact during a conversation are often considered as insincere. What does little or no eye contact mean then ___38___
3. Friendly eyes
When you are carrying on a conversation, looking the speaker straight in the eyes sends a clear message to him: ___39___. This is why so many public speaking experts advise keeping eye contact with the speaker.
4. “Shut” eyes
Covering the eyes for a long period of time sends a message that you are trying to block out something that you do not want to hear. For example, a man who is asked to work on the weekend may cover his eyes with his fingers as he answers, “No problem.” ___40___.
A. Empty eyes
B. Smiling eyes
C. Such behavior is seen with liars
D. You are listening to him carefully
E. Anything from shyness to nervousness
F. What his gestures are showing is that he is not happy about it at all
G. So it is important to learn how to read the body language of the eyes

Look at the person speaking so they know you pay attention on them. It’s okay to look away every now and then. However, you’d better try to keep most of your focus on the other person’s face. ____17____
Smile and nod

With a little bit of encouragement, you’ll make the speaker feel more comfortable about opening up.
____19____
Avoid cutting the other person off so you don’t seem rude. Even though you may want to point out something the person says in the moment, hold the thought until they explain everything.

When it’s your turn in the conversation, consider everything they said before bringing up your points.

Choose What To Remember, What To Forget
You can take more control of your recall -as our memory expert Jonathan Hancock explains.
I was sorting through some boxes in the loft last week when I came across my childhood. The moment that I saw my faded old friend, powerful memories flooded back from nearly 50 years before.____16____
Not all objects give rise to such welcome memories. However. I once had to throw a pair of running shorts. Because they reminded me too much of the day It ripped and ended up in A&E with a broken wrist!____17____According to a recent study, it’s possible to use thinking tricks to remove negative associations. And, in the process, you can learn a lot about how memory works—including how to get yours under control.
Volunteers were first shown how to create connections between an item and a set of negative emotions.____18____They linked a child’s trainer to images of a playground accident, for example, so that the object became uncomfortable to have nearby. Later, they were shown how to actively forget those feelings by consciously pushing away any pictures that appeared. And this turned out to be more than just a temporary distraction. It gradually weakened the bad memories—in some cases, erasing them altogether.
It shows that recall relies on associations and images. And you can strengthen both of these factors when you want to remember: For example,
● ____19____You’ll make the object an even more powerful “entrance” to happy times.
● To remember an intention or ambition, choose an object that symbolises it for you in some way, then visualise your future plans whenever you see the object. Again, strengthening the images will continually sharpen the memories On the other hand, when you want to forget an item’s bad associations.
● Practise pushing away any images it brings about This should get easier overtime.
● Try it with places, too—even people.____20____Make the images—and the unwanted feelings—fade.
A. But maybe I was too hurried.
B. They did this using vivid mental images.
C. Some memories can ruin people’s expectations.
D. They also help us avoid the mistakes of the past.
E. Pick up a favourite souvenir and enjoy the pictures it brings to mind.
F. Be aware of any negative pictures they bring about, and actively resist them.
G. In a flash I was reconnected with how I felt—at an extremely happy time of my life.

Learning English can be fun and useful. However, it can also seem difficult sometimes. But be relaxed! We’ve got some top tips on how to learn English effectively.

When you have decided on your main aim, you can then make smaller steps to reach it. ____17____

Whether you study for 30 minutes each day or 1-2 hours throughout the week, you will gradually improve your English.
