Question

Amy Cuddy thinks positive (積極的) body language includes things like proper eye contact, active listening, and gestures. Studies show that people who use positive body language are more likely to be accepted. However, most people don’t realize the importance of it. This passage may change their ideas.

Positive body language changes your attitude (態(tài)度).

Cuddy found that changing your body language to make it more positive improves your attitude because it makes a great difference to your body.

Positive body language makes you be liked more easily.

In a study, people watched soundless videos of doctors getting along with sick people. Just by studying the doctors’ body language, people were able to guess which doctors were more popular. Body language plays a big role in how you’re treated (被對(duì)待) and can be more important than your voice. Learning to use positive body language will make people like you and trust you more.

It improves your EQ (情商).

Your ability to express your emotions and ideas is important to your EQ. People without positive body language have a bad effect on people around them.
