In O'Brien's excerpt those sentences are: <span>In a way, it seemed, he was part of the morning fog, or my own imagination, but there was also the reality of what was happening in my stomach. This sentence evokes a bodily reaction and calls it "the reality". It is not just imagined; it really happens. </span><span>I tried to swallow whatever was rising from my stomach, which tasted like lemonade, something fruity and sour. It's as if his body has its own way of processing the distressing information. He feels a very specific kind of nausea, triggered by his mental processes.
In Steinbeck's excerpt it's these sentences: </span><span>In all kinds of combat the whole body is battered by emotion. The ductless glands pour their fluids into the system to make it able to stand up to the great demand on it. They describe a very physical reaction, which is a product of emotional distress. It's as if the body is trying to defend the whole system from detrimental factors.</span>
Answer:
Ukrainians tend to be more physical when communicating with each other or with foreigners. A pat on shoulder, a hug, a kiss on a cheek are the acceptable norms of communication among friends or close acquaintances.
Eye contact is less important and it is considered rude to keep staring at someone. However, avoidance of making an eye contact when speaking to someone may be regarded as a sign of dishonesty or shyness. Ukrainians use physical gestures and are generally more animated while speaking or making a presentation.
Canadian Perspective:
Both verbal and non-verbal communication play a large role in communication styles as do direct and indirect communication styles. Men tend to be more direct in their communication than women and expect that of other men. Women are generally more non-verbal and indirect when speaking to strangers or colleagues. It should be noted that smiling is also not a typical form of communication in Ukraine and is generally reserved for family and friends in a social setting.
