Depending on different cultures, smiling can express joy and amusement, but it can also indicate embarrassment. The following examples show this point of view:

　　In an attempt to be open and friendly, people in the United States smile a lot. Every one smiles at each other, this nonverbal communication shows being friendly in the United States. However，in China, smiling is not only an expression of happiness, but also a way to avoid being embarrassed. Chinese people like smiling when they are embarrassed in order to avoid embarrassment. Smiling is a kind of good will but not sneer（嘲笑）. For example: When a child falls off from a bike, the adults in China may smile, which is a kind of gentle encouragement and may not be a kind of impolite laugh.

　　When a person from the United States might blush（脸红）with embarrassment or become offensive, a Chinese might blush with smile.
