Whether the eyes are "the windows of the soul" is debatable! that they are intensely important in interpersonal communication is a fact. During the first two months of a baby’s life, the stimulus that produces a smile is a pair of eyes. The eyes need not be real: a mask with two dots will produce a smile. Significantly, a real human face with eyes covered will not motivate a smile, nor will the sight of only one eye when the face is presented in profile (侧面). This attraction to eyes as opposed to the nose or mouth continues as the baby matures. In one study, when American four-year-olds were asked to draw people, 75 percent of them drew people with mouths, but 99 percent of them drew people with eyes. In Japan, however, where babies are carried on their mother’s back, infants do not acquire as much attachment to eyes as they do in other cultures. As a result, Japanese adults make little use of the face either to encode (把......编码) or decode (译解) meaning. In fact, Argyle reveals that the "proper place to focus one’s gaze during a conversation in Japan is on the neck of one’s conversation partner. "
The role of eye contact in a conversational exchange between two Americans is well defined: speakers make contact with the eyes of their listener for about one second, then glance away as they talk; in a few moments they re-establish eye contact with the listener or reassure themselves that their audience is still attentive, then shift their gaze away once more. Listeners, meanwhile, keep their eyes on the face of the speaker, allowing themselves to glance away only briefly. It is important that they be looking at the speaker at the precise moment when the speaker reestablishes eye contact:if they are not looking, the speaker assumes that they are disinterested and either will pause until eye contact is resumed or will terminate the conversations. Just how critical this eye maneuvering is to the maintenance of conversational flow becomes evident when two speakers are wearing dark glasses; there may be a sort of traffic jam of words caused by interruption, false starts, and unpredictable pauses.
According to the passage, a conversation between two Americans may break down due to
选项
A、one temporarily glancing away from the other
B、eye contact of more than one second
C、improperly-timed ceasing of eye contact
D、constant adjustment of eye contact
答案
C
解析
本题是一道具体细节题。问根据文章内容,两个美国人的对话可能会由于什么而中断。利用查阅式阅读法,根据文章第二段中的第二句和第三句话,我们知道,在交谈过程中听者可以短暂地将目光从说话者脸上移开,但是当说话者的目光停留在听者脸上的一瞬间,听者一定得看着对方,否则交谈就可能停下来。因此,本题的正确答案应是选择项C“在不适当的时间将目光从对方的脸上移开”。选择项A错,作者并未说明眼神不可以移开,只要未被对方发现就行。选择项B、D与文章内容不符。
