【正文】 always sitting when talking and are the king of a conversation (Hu, 1995).Sitting also represent different behaviors in diverse of cultures. The American man like sitting a posture in number four of Arabic numerals which refer to one leg crosses on the other and the tip of the toe toward the next one. It is still hard to accept by the elder in China to sit in this crosslegged because they think it shows no respect to people with whom you are talking. Meanwhile, in some occasions in west, ladies may make a misunderstanding easily due to her subconsciously casual posture which shows them a seductive hint when sitting with men. For instance, most men regard sitting with her legs crossed of a woman as the most lecherous posture of sitting. Moreover, to sit in a posture in number four of Arabic numerals and the knee pointing to someone may not only be an eased and relaxed sitting but a joking of journal of sexual behavior. Sometimes, some Chinese madams lift the hem of their shirt unwittingly it can lead to the result of that misunderstanding. Furthermore, a woman folds leg crosswise slowly and open again or touch thigh lightly also deemed as a teasing act of sexual behavior from time to time. In addition, in order to relax the feet in the highheel shoe, ladies take off them and play shoes in most cases but some act that feet is in and out of shoes, to and fro, giving others a suggestion of sexual act. As a result, women have to prehend the taboos of sitting between China and West so as not to make humiliation. CrouchingThe posture of crouching also refer to culture vary from country to country. In China, especially in the rural area, crouching is mon. A great many people regard it as a natural posture of taking a rest, like the peasant living in shanxi and shanxi provinces of China, people rather crouch than sit down while on the table (Hu, 1995). Nevertheless, every literate person particularly those who received higher education seldom take a crouch as a habit. However, in AngloAmerican, people regard this posture as taboo in body language universally because it is not only inelegant but also unable to keep balance with body. WalkingIn the old days, it is said that, a joke of Europe, the European seems to have no knees, both legs are always upright and never bend while walking, which is widely spread in the eastern (Hu, 1995). Former Soviet Union has a joke that the posture of American walking appears that all the land under their feet belong to them (Hu, 1995). Researched in China, Leger Brosnahan found that Chinese dislike British walking behavior and he thought that in the Englishspeaking country, people walk formally with a soldier’s standard whereas in China, people walk casually and courteously(Leger Brosnahan,1991). However, in social life and workplace, people in the Englishspeaking country all try hard to avoid running no matter how urgent matters are and they put running down as indelicate. Taboos of TouchTo municate with others by body touching, touch behavior is one of the most basic behaviors of body language in human munication, including hugging, kissing, shaking hands, etc. Long before people have found that some nations had high contact with each other by body touching while some had low contact so that people divide the culture into “contact culture” and “l(fā)owcontact culture”(Hu,1999). Arabian, Jew, people in southern and western of Europe and people use Latin as mother tongue belong to the former. Besides, American, Nordic and Oriental belong to the latter. In highcontact culture, people regard body touching as part of munication. To consider lowcontact culture, Chinese usually meet and greet each other just by nodding。 whereas American wave someone, their palm up, and just a little shake by the index finger or all fingers but for Chinese adults it is impolite and disrespectable without dispute because they frequently use this to call the baby, cat, dog or other little animals. “V” GestureThere is a universal language that means “victory” by stretching the right hand’s forefinger and the middle finger to make a “V” gesture (Xia and Zhang, 2003). “V” is the first letter of the word “victory” (Xia and Zhang, 2003). Nevertheless, remember to make sure that the palm toward outside is the victory meaning, on account of the palm toward inside equal to a notorious gesture around most European countries. It is said that Winston Churchill, the prime minister of British, made a wrong “V” that took the palm toward inside due to a mistake in a grandscale meeting which made audience with different reflections: some booed by a round of applause。 nations of middle or Western Europe like Germany, British and Holland take the second。 while Chinese may think one staring at himself all the time is up to no good or take off his coat。 on the other hand, the other is measured with the standard of one’s own country. Therefore, the misunderstanding of body language in the crosscultural munication mon occurrence, especially in business munication, can bring about failure in negotiations or immeasurable loss in economy (Carley, 1997).3. Taboos in Body Language Taboos of Facial ExpressionsThe most crucial and conspicuous facial expressions, for physiologic and biologic reasons, show a great variety of emotions on the face, such as angry, hate, fear, happy, sad and surprise. There is some mirror of facial expressions like “pull a long face” and “be all smiles”. However, the same expression may take so different meanings that it is not easy to prehend. SmilingSmiling is the mon nature of human beings. Nonetheless, in the munication, smiling has diverse meanings because of different cultures. In China, smiling refers to being happy or friendly as well as in America, but sometimes also expresses apology or embarrassment. Resulting in culture unlike, it is all too
