Abstract:As is known to all,nonverbal communication plays an important role in interpersonal communication. Body language is the core of nonverbal communication. Therefore, it is necessary to have a broad knowledge of body language. However, in different cultures, the meaning and use of body language vary from one another. We should take many factors into consideration: when can we use a certain kind of body language? To whom can we employ such behavior? 

If we want to make effective communication with from English-speaking countries, we must understand the meaning of their body language. In addition, we also have to know the taboos in their countries so as to avoid improper body movements or body behaviors. To put it briefly, making clear cultural differences will contribute to better use of body language and even avoid cultural conflicts. 

This paper focuses on comparison of body language in different cultures in terms of eye language, gestures, facial expressions, touch, and postures. It aims to illustrate the differences and similarities of body language in China and English-speaking countries and put forward the principles of reducing barriers in communication so as to achieve efficient communication.
