27、There are various ways in which to read body language so that you can understand how someone is feeling. Reading emotional clues（线索）is one of them.

Crying is considered to be caused by an explosion of emotion in most cultures. Oftentimes crying is considered a sign of sadness, but crying can also be an expression of happiness. Crying can also come about through laughter and humor. Thus, when judging crying, you’ll need to look for other signs to determine the meaning of the crying. Crying can also be forced in order to gain sympathy or to cheat others. This practice is known as “crocodile tears”, an expression that draws on the wrong idea that crocodiles “cry” when catching prey（猎物）.

Signs of threat include v-shaped eye brows, wide eyes, and an open or down-turned mouth. In a similar way, Arm tightly crossed over the other is a common sign that the person is angry and is closing himself off to you.

When people show anxiety, they display increased facial movements, and their mouth made into a thin line. Individuals who are anxious may also play with their hands, unable keep them in one spot Anxiety can also or have nervous legs. be conveyed when people seemingly unconsciously（无意识地）tap their feet or have nervous legs.

Embarrassment can be expressed by turning the eyes or shifting them away, turnip of the head and controlled or even tense smiles. If someone looks down at the floor a lot, they are probably shy, afraid, or embarrassed. People also tend to look down when they are upset, or trying to hide something emotional. People are often thinking and feeling unpleasant emotions when they are in the process of staring at the ground.

28、Your house may have an influence on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you put on weight or lose weight. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.

Open the curtains (窗帘) and turn up the lights . Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps (灯) and flood the place with brightness.

Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors increase our appetites (胃口). In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed (消耗) 33% less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more delicious, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So, when it’s time to repaint, go blue.

Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里） each meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin paying attention to the time and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.

Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates (盘子) can easily make us fat. We eat about 22% more when using a 12-inch (英寸) plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake（摄入） jumps by 14%. And we’ll pour (倒) about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
