Listening and Speaking原文 Woman: Today we are interviewing Max Snelling, who wrote a book about body language in the animal world. Hello. Max. Man: Hello. Woman: In your book you talk about how animals use body language the same way as people do. Man: That's right.This is true of many animals. However, it is especially true of chimps. Woman: In what way? Man: Well, when we humans are worried or frightened, we sometimes smile in a nervous way.Chimps also look as though they are smiling when they are nervous. Woman: Why is that? Man: Perhaps they are trying to look friendly so an enemy will not hurt them. Now, what do we often do when we are angry? Woman: We stand tall and put our hands on our sides. Sometimes we shout. Man: Exactly. We want to look bigger and stronger. Chimps do the same thing- they stand up.move their arms around, throw things about, and make noise. Woman: Just like we do. Man: Thats right. Woman: What about in family relationships? Man: That'svery interesting. Both chimp and human mothers hold their babies and kiss them. A similar thing is true for adults. To show that we accept and love each other, among our main expressions are hugging and kissing. When a stronger chimp frightens a smaller chimp, the smaller chimp will hold his head low. The bigger one will then touch him or kiss him to make him feel safe. Woman: So chimps are just like people! Man: Or, were just like chimp.
