Would you believe this man?
Before we go any further, let's examine our own assumptions (those things we accept as
true without proof) about the character of a speaker before he or she even opens their
mouths. Find a video of a speech online made by a foreign world leader that you are
unfamiliar with who speaks another language. (You could simply look up "presidential
speech Yemen," for example.) Stop the video before the speech begins and think carefully
about what you already feel about this person, judging from their appearance. Be honest and
write it down. Then listen to the speech and think carefully about how you feel about them
based on the tone of their voice and their body language or nonverbal communication
through gestures or movements. Alternatively, find any speech or talk online and watch it
with the sound turned off. Ask yourself what you feel about the speaker based on their
appearance and body language alone? Do you feel inclined to believe what they say or reject
it? Question why this is and write it all down in around 100-200 words.

Respuesta :

In this exericse, you have to make assumptions about someone who does not speak your language.

You have to pay attention to:

  • Their appearance.
  • Their tone of their voice.
  • Body language.

You have to search for a video of a foreign world leader, so the appearance is mostly going to be very formal and the tone of voice might be harsh and determined, as well as the body language that probably would evoke the same feelings.

Public speeches and body language

This exercise is interesting to realise how important is a public speech for world leaders and also how can body language make a difference when making a public speech.

Body language means the movements you make with your body when you speak, the gestures, the nonverbal communication.
