While children learn spoken and body language—proper postures, eye behaviors, etc. —they also learn a subtler thing; how to react to space around them. Man walks around inside a kind of private bubble, which represents the amount of air space he feels he must have between himself and other people. Anthropologists, working with cameras, have recorded the tremors and minute eye movements that betray the moment the individual’ s bubble is breached. As adults, however, we hide our feelings behind a screen of polite words.
Anthropologist Dr. Edward T. Hall points out that, for two unacquainted adult male North Americans , the comfortable distance to stand for private conversation is from arm’ s length to about four feet apart. The South American likes to stand much closer which creates problems when two meet face to face. For, as the South American moves in, the North American feels he’ s being pushy; and as the North American backs off, the South American thinks he’s being standoffish.
The American and the Arab are even less compatible in space habits. Arabs like close contact in some instances, they stand very close together to talk, staring intently into each other’ s eyes and breathing into each other’s face. These are actions the American may associate with sexual intimacy and he may find it disturbing to be subjected them in a nonsexual context.
The amount of space a man needs is also influenced by his personality—introverts, for example, seem to need more elbow room than extroverts. Situation and mood also affect distance. Moviegoers waiting in line to see a sexy film will line up much more densely than those waiting to see a family-entertainment movie.
According to Dr. Edward T. Hall’ description in paragraph 2, it can be inferred that South Americans are______.
选项
A、quite sociable
B、more aggressive
C、a little bit sensitive
D、less distance-aware
答案
D
解析
第二段讲到南美人喜欢站的接近一些,说明他们不是很在意个人空间。这只是对空间的一种观念,并不能表明他们友善,激进或是敏感。因此答案为D。
