问题     All of us communicate with one another nonverbally(不使用语言地), as well as with words. Most of the time we’re not aware that we are doing it. We gesture with elbows or a hand, meet someone else’s eyes and look away, change positions in a chair. These actions we assume are occasional. However in recent years researchers have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent and understandable as language.
    One important kind of body language is eye behavior. Americans are careful about how and when they meet one another’s eyes. In our normal conversation, each eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both of us look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other’s eyes, they become more intimate. Therefore, we carefully avoid this, except in suitable situations.
    Researchers who are engaged in the study of communication through body movement are not prepared to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an American rubs his nose, it may mean he is disagreeing with someone or refusing something. But there are other possible interpretations(解释), too. Another example: when a student in conversation with a professor holds the older man’s eyes a little longer than is usual, it can be a sign of respect: it can be a challenge to the professor’s authority: it can be something else entirely. The researchers look for patterns in the situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture.
    Communications between human beings would be just dull if it were all done with words.
The main idea of this article is that______.

选项 A、study of communication through body movement is a new science
B、body movements are as important as words in communication
C、all of us communicate with one another
D、eye behavior is the most important part in body language

答案B

解析 归纳大意题。本题问本文的中心思想是什么。根据第一节第一句可知B。体态语和言语在交流方面同等重要对,因为B的意思与第一句的意思(我们所有人都不仅仅在使用言语进行相互交流,而且也在用非言语手段进行交流。)基本相同,仅表达方式稍有不同而已。
