教你解读肢体语言

A walk to convey power; a greeting that gets the upper hand; a gesture that can hide a lie, body language can betray us. When a president is under pressure, or a celebrity¹ is in the media glare, look beyond the words, their body language says it all.

This is a certain poise², self-touch gesture, hot spot, or micro-expressions.

In this special, experts will dissect³ the body, the face and the voice— It’s about our country. — to reveal its hidden meanings, its secrets.

This is a world where what we say is all important. — They said this day would never come. —We hang on every word. —Tomorrow we begin again. Thank you. —But are we getting all the message? — Older, darker, mean psychopaths, serial⁴ killers⁵ hang around…Research has shown that just 7% of human communication is through the actual words.

93% of what we communicate with others is non-verbal.— Bang, bang, bang! — 93%! Think about that. 93%! So it’s our tone of voice, our pitch, our posture⁶, micro-expressions on our face and different gestures that we might use. So we put all the significance on 7% for words. We shouldn’t have really been doing that.

Beyond the words lies a fascinating world of non-verbal communication, the secret world of body language. We are about to watch our one of the world leaders, our sports stars. — Good morning. —We’ll revisit famous figures from recent history.

—Did you kill the President? — Because people have got to know whether or not their president is a crook⁷, well, but I am not a crook. I've earned everything I’ve got.

We’ll view our celebrities⁸ with fresh eyes. We are going to show how people in the public eye try to control the way we perceive them, and how sometimes, despite their best efforts, the truth leaks out.

— Whomever it might be, if the truth is told, then my name will be cleared and I can move on with my life.

If you know what to look for.

— It’s not what you are seeing. It’s what you are not seeing. And you are not seeing an, an anger response.

We are going to equip you with the tools to read those body language give away.
