They both have part-time jobs at a travel company. A Well-dressed lady entered the office. She looked at Debbie and Simon, and then walked over to Debbie. Debbie gave her a cheerful greeting.“What’s the matter?” Mr Yang asked.“ People always choose Debbie instead of me. I don’t understand.”“I do.  It’s the way you communicate.”“ How can that be?” Simon asked. “I don’t get a chance to speak.”“Communicating is more than just speaking. Your body language is important too.”“Body language?”“It’s the way you stand and sit. It’s your gesture s and the ex pression on your face. Your whole appearance communicates things. You don’t give people a good impression, Simon. You look down, you never smile and you don’t turn your head towards them. “Look at Debbie. She’s holding her head up. She he always smiles and  looks friendly. Her body language is making people feel welcome, so they go to her for help.” Simon decided to improve his body language. He sat up straight and tried smiling at people. Minutes later, a beautiful girl entered. She walked over to Simon.

Although he is over 65, he is very fit and still enjoys working.Damin uses cormorants to catch fish. Cormorants are large black birds. They are good at catching fish because they can swim well. They can dive down and stay under the water for up to two minutes.Damin usually sets off in the late afternoon and gets the cormorants ready for work. First, he ties a piece of grass around their necks to stop them from eating big fish. Then when Damin's boat reaches the right place in the river, he pushes them into the river. Damin uses several ways to attract fish. During the day, he jumps Up and down on his boat. After dark, he hangs a Iight on a post at the front of the boat. The cormorants bring the fish back to the boat. he fish are then taken and thrown into a big basket by Damin. No nets are required for this type of fishing.Cormorant fishing was once practiced in Iots of places in South-East China, and there were many fishermen in the area. But today, few young people are Interested In it. In 50 years，perhaps there will be no more cormorant fishermen in the world.王大明是个渔夫。
