* Reading the passage carefully and choose thest choice.
Body language expresses ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink
can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod means agreement while shaking the head
indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of non-linguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the
fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct
people.
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques also express human
thoughts and feelings. However, they cannot replace verbal language completely. For instance, no matter how
pictuesque and vivid sign language is, it cannot be used to express spelling.
