书面表达参考范文：
As we all know, communicating is more than just speaking. People in different countries use different body languages to communicate with each other.
Body language includes facial expressions, eye contact, gestures and movements. For example, nodding can show you agree with someone. On the contrary, shaking your head shows that you disagree with others. Thumb up means very good or you did a good job. The sign of V stands for victory. In China, when people meet their friends, they smile or have a handshake . But in western countries, they usually give a hug or kiss their friends’ cheek to show their friendliness. We Chinese can count numbers from one to ten with only one hand. In America, they use both hands to do that.
It’s necessary for us to learn more about body language. Body language plays an
Important role in our social communication.
