W: Sam, I didn’t see you in accounting class this morning.
M: [ashamedly] I know. I didn’t make it. That’s the fourth time I’ve missed it
  this month.
W: Wow. I think if you miss any more it’ll start affecting your grade. [serious, but
  without scolding] And it is a required course for our major, you know.
M: Yeah. Not only that, but I actually enjoy the class. It’s one of my favorites. The
  problem is...see, I work part-time waiting tables at one of the restaurants
  across town. We have to stay till midnight to help clean up the place, so I get
  home pretty late. I’ve been having trouble waking up for the early accounting
  class, and I’ve even started skipping some of the assignments for it.
W: It sounds like you have too much in your schedule. If I were you, I’d definitely
  quit that part-time job. That way you could focus on accounting class.
M: You’re right, but...I make so much money waiting tables there. I’ll have to start
  paying back my loans next year, and I have things like car insurance to worry
  about. [despairingly] I really need the money.
W: [upbeat] Hey, you know what? Why don’t you switch into the other accounting
  class, the one that meets later? That way you could get some sleep.
M: I thought of that too. But when I checked the school website, it said that
  section was full.
W: It couldn’t hurt to talk to the professor anyway. If you explain your situation,
  maybe she’ll let you switch even though the other one’s full.
M: You think so? [unconvinced] I’m not sure she would...

答案 [Topic] The professor talks about the different types of nonverbal communication, and what they mean. [Reason 1] First, he says that nonverbal signals can reinforce what someone is saying. The way people do this is by making direct eye contact, having strong body language, and using an even tone. of voice. For instance, when you ask your friend out to lunch, and she looks at you and says "yes" in a clear voice, then she really wants to come. [Reason 2] On the other hand, nonverbal signals can also contradict the message. In this case, people often avoid eye contact, or have weak body language, or sound unclear. If your friend replies like this to a lunch invitation, it means she probably doesn’t want to come. Even if she says "yes", she isn’t being sincere.
