Even the simple act of looking someone in the eye is not at all that simple. In the USA, Americans are (23)                  to look directly at people when speaking to them. It shows interest in what they are saying and is thought to carry a (24)         of honesty. Meanwhile, in Japan and Korea, people avoid long periods of  eye contact. It is considered more polite to look to the side during a conversation. The    Lebanese, (25)                , stand close together and look intensely into each other's eyes. The action shows sincerity and gives people a better sense of what their counterparts want.Given such differences with even the most common expressions, people (26)              travel or work abroad have a real need to learn the other culture's body language. People tend to be unaware of the messages they are sending to others. So, it is (27)                to consider your own body language before dealing with people from other cultures. Knowing about the body language of friends, clients, and colleagues can be very helpful in improving understanding and avoiding miscommunication.(Source: Reading Fusion 1 by Andrew E. Bennett)
