   How different can other cultures be?Very different!People probably speak different languages and have beliefs and customs very different from yours. They can eat different foods and live in different types of houses. However,they can also be similar in ways of connecting with each other. We sometimes call these means of communication universal(共同的)languages.

Some legends hold that,thousands of years ago,there was a single language spoken by everyone on Earth. Of course,historical evidence does not support this,but it is fun to think about a time when everyone may have been able to communicate in the same language.

Today,there are thousands of languages spoken around the world. Yet,there are some means of communication that go beyond words and allow people of different backgrounds to communicate and share emotions and feelings. For example,some people believe music is a universal language. There may be some scientific support for this idea. Experts have learned that,across cultures,people can recognize three common emotions in music:happiness,sadness and fear.

So what other types of universal languages might there be?Some people believe dance is a universal language. Along with music,dancing seems to be a common interest shared by people all over the world. Do you think you could see a dance from another culture and make some reasonable(合理的)guesses about the ideas and emotions behind it?We bet you could!

Another universal language that you might not have thought of is mathematics! If you think about it now, it just makes sense.  The value of pi is roughly 3. 14159 no matter where you are on Earth. Similarly, figuring out the value of something involves the same mathematical calculations, regardless of whether you' re counting in dollars, pesos or coconuts.

People smile at times. However, the meaning of a smile in different cultures may be different. Depending on different cultures, smiling can express joy and amusement, but it can also indicate embarrassment. The following examples show this point of view:
In an attempt to be open and friendly, people in the United States smile a lot. Every one smiles at each other, this nonverbal communication shows being friendly in the United States. However,in China, smiling is not only an expression of happiness, but also a way to avoid being embarrassed. Chinese people like smiling when they are embarrassed in order to avoid embarrassment. Smiling is a kind of good will but not sneer(嘲笑). For example: When a child falls off from a bike, the adults in China may smile, which is a kind of gentle encouragement and may not be a kind of impolite laugh.
When a person from the United States might blush(脸红)with embarrassment or become offensive, a Chinese might blush with smile. To avoid serious misunderstanding, people who engage in intercultural communication should be able to understand the meaning of smiling appropriately. Related to the smile is the laugh. Also, different cultures have different meanings about laugh. For example, Americans can enjoy a very heartfelt belly (腹部) laugh that comes from the deepest emotions. However, most Chinese seldom laugh that way because they are thought to be silly except among close friends.
