Watching TV is a very popular pastime（消遣）in the UK. But what kind of programs do British people like to watch? Well, the most-watched TV programs are usually on {#blank#}1{#/blank#} four times every week. They are programs based in one neighborhood that try to describe {#blank#}2{#/blank#} life in the UK — we call these dreams 'soap operas' or 'soaps'.

    Back in the early days of TV, husbands went out to work and wives stayed at home, looking after the house and the children. Most of these {#blank#}3{#/blank#} programs were aimed at amusing the housewives who were at home,{#blank#}4{#/blank#} doing the washing. Companies selling washing powder（洗衣粉）would advertise their products between the programs, and sometimes those companies would even sponsor（赞助）the 'soap operas'.

    Mae West said, "I speak two languages, Body and English." Sometimes, our {#blank#}1{#/blank#} are saying more than our words.

    In Britain, people don't want you {#blank#}2{#/blank#} them at all. In a formal situation (正式场合), {#blank#}3{#/blank#} people would often greet each other with a handshake. They don't often greet with a hug, and almost never with a kiss! {#blank#}4{#/blank#} in the south of Italy and in many other parts of the world, people always greet with two {#blank#}5{#/blank#} on the cheek (脸颊). And do you know what's the most popular body language? It's smile! So always {#blank#}6{#/blank#} at people when you greet them!
