You will now read a short passage and listen to a lecture on the same topic. You will then be asked a question about them. After you hear the question, give yourself 30 seconds to prepare your response. Then record yourself speaking for 60 seconds.
Verbal and Nonverbal Communication
When we speak with other people face-to-face, the nonverbal signals we give—our facial expressions, hand gestures, body movements, and tone of voice—often communicate as much as, or more than, the words we utter. When our nonverbal signals, which we often produce unconsciously, agree with our verbal message, the verbal message is enhanced and supported, made more convincing. But when they conflict with the verbal message, we may be communicating an entirely different and more accurate message than what we intend.
Listen to Track 17.
Explain how the examples from the professor’s lecture illustrate the relationship between verbal and nonverbal communication.
Narrator
Now listen to part of a lecture on this topic in a psychology course.
Professor
Last month my favorite uncle paid me a surprise visit. I hadn’t seen him in many years . . . The doorbell rang, I opened the door, and there was Uncle Pete. Now, I’m sure when I saw him I said something like: "Uncle Pete! What a surprise! How nice to see you!" Anyway, my wife was standing next to me and according to her—I wasn’t really aware of this—my eyes got really wide and I broke into a huge big smile. She said I was actually jumping up and down, like a little boy. Well, anyway, later that evening Uncle Pete told me how very, very good he felt when he saw how happy I was to see him.
But compare that with this: my daughter. . . she’s six . . . We were building a bird-house together last week. And I was showing her how to use a hammer and nail. And of course, stupid me, I wasn’t being very careful and I smashed my thumb with the hammer. Boy, did it hurt! I almost felt like screaming, but I didn’t want to upset my daughter, so I said, "Don’t worry, honey. It’s nothing." Meanwhile, I was shaking my hand, as if that would stop my thumb from hurting, and my face was contorted in pain. My voice was trembling too. So even though I told my daughter I was OK, I’m sure she didn’t believe me. Because she kept asking me if I was OK.

答案
To respond to this particular question, you should discuss how verbal and nonverbal communication are related and explain how the examples that the professor gives support the reading text. You should include relevant points and examples from the lecture(and not from any other source).
To begin your response, you could give a brief summary of the reading, such as a definition of what verbal and nonverbal communication is; that is, that gestures and body movements often provide as much information to a person as spoken language does. You could also say that nonverbal signals can agree or conflict with a verbal message.
Then you should explain how the professor’s examples illustrate these general ideas. In the first example, the professor’s happy nonverbal behaviors on seeing his uncle, such as his big smile, and his jumping up and down, agreed with his verbal message, so the verbal message was supported. You could also say that his uncle knew he was very happy.
You should then discuss the second example. In this example, when the professor hit himself with the hammer, he did not want to upset his daughter and told her not to worry. These words, however, conflicted with his nonverbal behavior, such as his shaking his hand in pain and his trembling voice, so his daughter did not believe the verbal message. In this case, the nonverbal message was more accurate.
You will not have time to repeat all of the details from the lecture and reading, and you should not try to do that. You should integrate points from both to answer the question completely. You need to give only sufficient details to explain how the two examples relate to the overall idea of how nonverbal communication contributes to verbal messages.
Your response should be intelligible, should demonstrate effective use of grammar and vocabulary, and should be well developed and coherent.
