Answer:

Expressions we give off

Explanation:

Erving Goffman develop a model called the "Dramaturgical model"  which has to do with the presentation of self, meaning, how we presentate to others.

According to Goffman, we create impressions through our language and our body language. So we create impressions by our expressions.

There are two different kinds of expressions:

  1. Expressions we give: Things we say and intentional poses and facial expressions.
  2. Expressions we give off: Things over  we have less control, it refers to the body language that "gives us away".

In the example, particularly good poker players say they can read other player tells. These are subtle and unintentional facial expressions and body language that reveal what players are thinking. Clearly, <u>players don't do this intentionally and therefore they don't have control over these facial expressions and therefore it gives them away. </u>Thus this is an example of "Expressions we give off"

Answer:

C

Explanation:

In the 20s the USA was considered isolationist, America for the Americans so when a influx of immigrants came in they faced harsh feelings from the born and bred Americans.

This can be confused with racism, if what happened in the 20s happened now it would be but there is a difference between not wanting someone in your country based on race and not wanting someone in your country based on the times ideals. We need to stop judging people from over a century ago like we would today, it was a different time, different ideals and different motives. I am not discounting the presents of racism obviously but pointing out the cultural influences at the time.

that was for free lol
