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 statement. Hold it for three seconds, and the meaning has changed again.
For every social situation, there is permissible time that you can hold a person’s gaze without being intimate, rude, or aggressive
. If you are on an elevator, what gaze-time are you permitted? To answer this question, consider what you typically do. You are very likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up(打量) and to assure them that you mean no threat. Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction, you need to emit a signal telling others you want to be left alone. So you cut off eye contact, which sociologist Erving Goffman( 1963 ) calls "a dimming of the lights". You look down at the floor, at the indicator lights, anywhere but into another passenger’s eyes. Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on an elevator, you will make the other person exceedingly uncomfortable, and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.
If you hold eye contact for more than three seconds, 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 typically gaze at each other for about three seconds at a time, and then drop their eyes down for three seconds, before letting their eyes meet again. But if one man gives another man a three-second-plus stare, he signals— "I know you. " "I am interested in you. " or "You look peculiar and I am curious about you. " This type of stare often produces hostile feelings.
The passage mainly discusses______.
选项
A、the limitations of eye contact
B、the exchange of ideas through eye contact
C、proper behavior in various situations
D、the role of eye contact in interpersonal communication
答案
D
解析
概括题。通观全文,文章讲的就是眼神在人际交往中的作用。不同的眼神会有不同的含义,因此选D。
