.The man on the space on my side of the table at all. I was angry. Maybe he thought that he owned the whole
table. I had read a book about non-verbal communications o I took various papers out of my bag and put them on
his briefcase! When I did this he stiffened and his eyes nearly popped(瞪出)out of his head. I had invaded(侵犯
)his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off his case in order to read them. He immediately moved his
case to his side of the table. Of course, it is possible that he just wanted to be helpful to me!

spaces by talking about things you don’t know about .And you even feel that they like you to be outside them
so that they will enjoy being inside even more! This is one of the difficulties of being a traveler! But if you
understand it then it helps you .Haven’t you enjoyed being part of a group and “owning” a bit of space?
