9、 following is a form of communication? A Speaking to someone.B Standing in a comer at a party with your arms crossed. C Avoiding eye contact with the salesman when you are buying something.D All of the above.Speaking, or using language to communicate, is probably the best known form of communication

If someone asks you later whether you think Tom liked the party, you might say “He said he enjoyed it, but it didnt look like it.“Now lets look at C. Imagine

35、g wrong.NO: It is difficult to tell what a person is thinking by looking at their body language.
