Proper street behavior in the United States requires a nice balance of attention and inattention. You are supposed to look at a 【21】______ just enough to show that you’re 【22】______ of his presence. If you look too little, you appear arrogant or furtive (鬼鬼祟祟的), too much, 【23】______ you’re inquisitive. Usually what happens is that people 【24】______ each other until they are about eight feet 【25】______ , at which point both cast down their eyes. Sociologist Dr. Erving Goffman 【26】______ this as "a kind of dimming of lights."
Much of eye behavior is so 【27】______ that we react to it only on the intuitive level. The next time you have a 【28】______ with someone who makes you feel liked, notice what he does with his eyes. 【29】______ are he looks at you more often than is usual with 【30】______ a little longer than the normal. You interpret this as a sign of a polite one 【31】______ he is interested in you as a person 【32】______ just in the topic of conversation. Probably you also feel that he is both 【33】______ and sincere.
All this has been demonstrated in elaborate 【34】______ . Subjects sit and talk in the psychologist’s laboratory, 【35】______ of the fact that their eye behavior is being 【36】______ from a one-way vision screen. In one fairly typical experiment, 【37】______ were induced to cheat while performing a task, then were 【38】______ and observed. It was found that those who had 【39】______ met the interviewer’s eyes less often than was 【40】______ , an indication that "shifty eyes" to use the mystery writers’ stock phrase can actually be a tip-off to an attempt to deceive or to feelings of guilt.
【21】
选项
A、friend
B、foreigner
C、passerby
D、stranger
答案
C
解析
本题考查上下文理解。本句的意思是:“在注视一个路人时,时间长度要适可而止,只要能意识到对方的存在就可以了”。在没有确定答案选项前,四个选项中的词似乎都可填入空格,但根据常识,若对方是朋友,那么你就不可能仅仅是看看而已,故friend不恰当;上下文中也没有线索表示你看的是一个外国人,所以foreigner也不恰当; stranger“陌生人”可以指马路上你不认识的任何人。但从下文看,你所看的是离你较近的人(about eight feet),passerby“过路人”要比 stranger更符合上下文的意思,因此C 是正确答案。
