7.Exchange a glance with someone,and then look away.Do you realize that you have made a statement?Hold the glance for a second longer and you have made a different situation,there is a permissible time that you can hold a person's stare without being unfriendly,rude,or aggressive.If you are on a lift,what stare-time are you permitted?To answer this question,consider what you typically do.You very likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you mean no harm.Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction,you need to send out a signal telling others you want to be left alone.So you cut off eye contact-what sociologist Erving Goffiman calls"a dimming(變暗) of the lights".You look down at the floor,at the indicator(指示) lights,anywhere but into another passenger's eyes.Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on a lift,you will make the other person extremely uncomfortable,and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.
If you hold eye contact for more than 3seconds,what are you telling another person?Much depends on the person and the situation.For instance,a man and a woman communicate interest in this manner.They stare at each other for about 3seconds at a time,and then drop their eyes down for 3seconds,before letting their eyes meet again.But if one man gives another man a 3-second-plus stare,he signals,"I know you","I am interested in you"or"You look peculiar(奇怪) and I am curious about you".This type of stare often produces hostile(敵意的) feelings.

解答 33-35 BBA
33.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段最后一句Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on a lift,you will make the other person extremely uncomfortable,and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself說明如果你違反了不要長時間盯著一個人看的規(guī)則,也就是你長時間盯著一個人看,你會讓對方感覺很不舒服,讓對方不安.故B正確.
34.B 根據(jù)第一段8、9句Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction,you need to send out a signal telling others you want to be left alone.So you cut off eye contact----what sociologist Erving Goffiman calls"a dimming(變暗) of the lights".如果你想向別人發(fā)出信號告訴對方你想獨自一人待著,"cut off eye contact-"你就不要和對方有眼神交流,也就是避免和對方有眼神的碰撞.故B正確.
35.A 推理判斷題.文章僅僅談?wù)摿四抗饨佑|的含義,并未涉及與語言表達(dá)的對比,因此B不對.文中只提到a stare longer than 3 seconds is different而沒提到 unacceptable,所以C不對.文中提到Hold the glance for a second longer and you have made a different statement.Hold it for seconds,and the meaning has changed again;即staring at a person的含義因時間長短而不同;而且Much depends on the person and the situation,也因人、場合的不同而不同,并非僅僅代表有興趣.所以D不對.故答案選A.
