If you can speak English, you know a lot of English words. You can read, speak and understand. But there is another kind of language you need to know—the language of the body.

　　All over the world, people “talk” with their hands, with their heads and with their eyes. When Japanese people meet, they bow (鞠躬；弯腰). When Indians meet, they put their hands together. What do American and British people do?

　　Americans are more informal than the British. They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable.

　　British people are more reserved (矜持的，保守的). They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask you something of your home.

　　When British and American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends, and men kiss women friends. When a man meets a man friend, he just smiles, and says “Hello”. Men do not kiss each other or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.

　　“Hot water” was used five hundred years ago to mean being in trouble. One story says it got the meaning from throwing hot water down on enemies（敌人）attacking a town. That happens no longer, but we still get into hot water.

　　“Water over the dam（水坝）” is another expression about a past event. It's something that finishes and it cannot be changed.

You can say “It's water over the dam.”
