IntroductionHuman communication consists of verbal communication and nonverbal communication. Many investigati

Also Linguist David Abercrombie points out that “we speak with vocal, but we talked with the entire body” (Zhan, 2010). In addition, Terence Hawkes

Any speech acts are included the information transferred through the gestures, posture, facial expressions, eyes, body contact and other such languages to complete”.

People can use body language to help them express more easily and understood. Someti

The main contents of the paper include: the current situation of English teaching in rural primary school, methodology, the application of b
