If we look at someone elses body, we can often tell how they are feeling by their body signals. So reading body language signals is a great tool in daily communication.In case(假使) you dont think that learning how to read and use body language is important, here are some numbers for you. 7% of the information we receive is from what people actually say, and 38% of the information we receive is from the tone(语气) and the speed of their voice; while 55% of the information we receive is from their body language.These non-verbal(非口头的) signals will help you a lot, but you still need to focus on what people are saying. If you focus too much on their body language signals, you and the person may feel uncomfortable. It is useful to be able to read peoples body language, but it is useful to learn how to send the right signals and avoid the wrong signals too. Body language may be given several interpretations. Many signals have different meanings, depending on the person and the situation. Be sure of it when you are trying to read a body language signal.（1）The numbers mentioned in the second paragraph are to _.A . explain what body language isB . show the importance of body languageC . tell us body language is less used than verbal languageD . tell us body language is the only tool in communication（2）What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?A .
