TRUE OR FALSE

In Spanish-language soap operas, affection between family and friends is never expressed.

this is what i found in my book:
"En las telenovelas en español también se expresa muy abiertamente el cariño (affection) entre parientes y amigos..."

i don't understand what this says :(

Right.
aha! Affection is freely expressed. In fact, many Americans believe their space is invaded because it's a custom to stand quite close to the person with whom you are speaking. Actually, backing up is an insult!
