Which country has the largest film industry in the world? If you think it’s the USA, you're wrong. The answer is, in fact, India. Nearly 3,000 films were in India in 2009, around 1,300 of which were full-length feature films.

The most popular films are action, comedy and romantic musicals. The musicals are productions full of colourful costumes and scenery with huge casts, including many dancers and singers. lmagine, one Indian film had seventy-one songs in it! That's a lot of to remember!

Film critics say that most of these films tend to be predictable they have very similar situations, but it seems that the public doesn’t mind at all. In fact, millions of people both in India and the rest of the world are huge fans and can't wait for new films to be .

Indian cinema is often referred to as ‘Bollywood’, but it turns out that the term is only correct for Hindi-language films; there are many other languages spoken in India. The name ‘Bollywood’ is a combination of Bombay (the city now called Mumbai) and Hollywood, but Bollywood isn’t a real place.

So if you're ever in India, don’t try to find it!

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.

Body language is a vital form of communication. In fact, it is believed that the various forms of body language contribute about 70 percent to our comprehension. It is important to note, however, that body language varies in different cultures. Take, for example, eye movement. In the USA, a child is expected to look directly at a parent or teacher who is scolding him/her. In other cultures the opposite is true. Looking directly at a teacher or parent in such a situation is considered a sign of disrespect. 

Another form of body language that is used differently, depending on the culture, is distance. In North America, people don't generally stand as close to each other as in South America. Two North Americans who don't know each other well will keep a distance of four feet between them, whereas South Americans in the same situation will stand two to three feet apart. North Americans will stand closer than two feet apart only if they are having a confidential conversation or if there is intimacy between them. 

Gestures are often used to communicate. We point a finger, raise an eyebrow, wave an arm – or move any other part of the body – to show what we want to say. However, this does not mean that people all over the world use the same gestures to express the same meanings. Very often we find that the same gestures can communicate different meanings, depending on the country. An example of a gesture that could be misinterpreted is sticking out the tongue. In many cultures, it is a sign of making a mistake, but in some places, it communicates ridicule. 

The dangers of misunderstanding one another are great. Obviously, it is not enough to learn the language of another culture. You must also learn its non-verbal signals if you want to communicate successfully.
