Four most important eye expressions
The language of our eyes is one of the most powerful and useful tools of non-verbal (非语言的) communication. 36 Here are four most important eye expressions that we see every day.
1. Smiling eyes
Researchers have long noticed that a sincere smile starts with our eyes. When we are sincerely happy, the skin around the corners of our eyes crinkles (出现皱纹). But a social, polite smile touches only our lips (嘴唇). 37 For example, when a shop assistant smiles at you, offering help, you will immediately get the feeling that they are just trying to sell you something.
2. 38
People who avoid eye contact during a conversation are often considered as insincere. What does little or no eye contact mean then? Anything from shyness to nervousness.
3. Friendly eyes
When you are carrying on a conversation, looking the speaker straight in the eyes sends a clear message to him: 39 This is why so many public speaking experts advise keeping eye contact with the speaker.
4. “Shut” eyes
Covering the eyes for a long period of time sends a message that you are trying to block out something that you do not want to hear. For example, a man who is asked to work on the weekend may cover his eyes with his fingers as he answers, “No problem.” 40
A . So it is important to learn how to read the body language of the eyes.
B. Empty eyes
C. Such behavior is seen with liars.
D. You are paying attention to the talk.
E. The smile you are given is not in the eyes.
F. What his gestures are showing is that he is not happy about it at all.
G. Shy eyes
