Joaquin came to the united states from mexico three months ago and he is still having trouble understanding americans’ tendency to rush all the time. he is also surprised when his teachers are irritated if he joins class a while after class has started. joaquin’s confusion about american pace of life is based on which aspect of nonverbal behavior? a. artifacts
b. chronemics
c. paralanguage
d. kinesics
e. proxemics

B). Chronemics.

Explanation:

Joaquin's confusion regarding the American pace of life exemplifies the 'chronemics' aspect of nonverbal behavior as it is based on his time perceptions. Chronemics exemplify a subcategory of 'non-verbal communication' and is usually referred to as the study of communicative function/role of time. It involves the correlative theories and observations relating to the humans' use of time like how one observes and perceives time or organizes it. Thus, Joaquin's confusion is affiliated with his reaction to the use of time frames by the Americans which plays a greater part to play in interactions and non-verbal behavior. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

what passage

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
