阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
Tom: I'm interested in gestures.
Ellen: Are you? Gestures differ from country to country.
Tom: Yes. Talking about gestures is a lot of fun.
Ellen: I've noticed that Japanese women often cover their mouths when they laugh.
Tom: They think it's impolite to show their teeth.
Ellen: I once talked to some students from India. They moved their heads up and down when they meant “No”, and from side to side for “Yes”. That looked strange to us.
Tom: Is that right? I thought nodding meant “Yes” in all parts of the world.
Ellen: No, not in some parts of India. But those students said their gestures were so natural to them that they couldn't change them.
Tom: This is one of the most popular comics in my country. Do people in American comics jump this way when they are surprised?
Ellen: Yes, they do. Comics always use big gestures, you know. (Ellen shows Tom a picture of a man.)
Tom: I've often seen this picture. He is shrugging his shoulders, isn't he?
Ellen: Yes, he is. It means I don't care or I give up. How do you gesture with your hand when you mean “Come here” in Japan?
Tom: We hold out our hands with the palms down, and move it up and down.
Ellen: That looks like “Sit down”, “Be quiet”, or “Get away” to us. When we mean “Come here”, we hold out our hands with the palms upward, and move our fingers toward our bodies.
