Perhaps the myth of the perfect communicator comes from believing too strongly in novels, television, or films. In these places we are treated to descriptions of such characters as the perfect mate or child, the totally controlled and gregarious host, and the incredibly competent professional. While these images are certainly appealing, it’s inevitable that we will come up short when com-pared to them. Once you accept the belief that it’s desirable and possible to be a perfect communicator, the thought follows that people won’t appreciate you if you are imperfect. Admitting one’s mistakes, saying "I don’t know," or sharing feelings of uncertainty or discomfort become social defects when viewed in this manner. Given the desire to be valued and appreciated, it is a temptation to try at least to appear perfect. Thus, many people assemble a veriety of social masks, hoping that if they can fool others into thinking that they are perfect, perhaps they’ll find acceptance. The costs of such deception are high. If others ever detect that this veneer of confidence is a false one, then the actor is seen as a phony, and regarded accordingly. Even ff the unassertive actor’s role of confidence does go undetected, such a performance uses hus makes the rewards of approval less enjoyable.
Why do many people assemble a variety of social masks?
选项
A、Because they want to play jokes on others.
B、Because they want to imitate the perfect characters in films
C、Because they want to appear perfect.
D、Because they want to deceive others.
答案
C
解析
这是一道因果问题。文章倒数第六行指出:考虑到要被人看重和认同,人们试图尽量表现的完美。因此,很多人都戴着各种面具。选项C与此相符。
