1. Can you give a brief definition of Non-verbal Communication?
Nonverbal communication is usually understood as the process of communication through sending and receiving wordless messages. i.e., language is not the only source of communication, there are other means also. Messages can be communicated through gestures and touch (Haptic communication), by body language or posture, by facial expression and eye contact. Meaning can also be communicated through object or artifacts (such as clothing, hairstyles or architecture), symbols, and icons (or graphics). Speech contains nonverbal elements known as paralanguage, including voice quality, rate, pitch, volume, and speaking style, as well as prosodic features such as rhythm, intonation and stress. Dance is also regarded as a form of nonverbal communication. Likewise, written texts have nonverbal elements such as handwriting style, spatial arrangement of words, or the physical layout of a page.
However, much of the study of nonverbal communication has focused on face-to-face interaction, where it can be classified into three principal areas: environmental conditions where communication takes place, the physical characteristics of the communicators, and behaviors of communicators during interaction。

专题/案例报告
一、简答题(共 1 道试题,共 100 分。)
1. 从8个单元的网上讨论中选择1个专题或案例,根据实时或非实时讨论情况个人撰写一份案例分析报告。
English is a language particularly rich in synonyms .i.e.different words which stand for the same thing. This is partly because of the convention, particularly in written English ,that one should avoid repeating the same word over and over again .So instead of repeating ‘enough’ one may substitute ‘sufficient’,instead of repeating ‘everlasting’ one may use ‘never-ending’.No two words are exactly identical. However .It is usually possible to find some difference between them or some context in which one is appropriate but not the other .Such differences can take several forms. It may be a difference in regional variety. ‘Autumn and fall ’,for example, both refer to the same season, but one is used in British English ,the other in American English. Similarly ,’snack’ and ‘baggin’ both refer to a light meal, but the former is standard English and the latter is a regional variety form the north of England. There may be stylistic differences . ‘salt’ and ‘sodium chloride’ are synonymous , but the former is an everyday expression, and the latter is technical. Similarly ‘recalcitrant’ is a formal equivalent of ‘disobedient’. There may also be differences in the emotional connotations of words. ‘Youths’ and ‘youngsters’ are synonymous, but Youths sound less pleasant than youngsters. The emotional associations which a word brings to mind will often differ from person to person ,so are to some degree unpredictable.This calling someone a ‘republican’ may suggest he has praise-worthy qualities to those in England who wish to abolish the monarchy, but connote objectionable characteristics to those who support it.
