One of the most potent(有效的)elements in body language is eye behavior. Americans are careful about how and when they meet one another’s eyes. In our normal conversations, each eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both individuals look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other’s eyes, emotions are heightened and the relationship becomes closer. Therefore, we carefully avoid this, except, in appropriate circumstances.
Americans abroad sometimes find local eye behavior hard to interpret. "Tel Aviv was disturbing," one man recalled, "People stared right at me on the street; they looked me up and down. I kept wondering if I was uncombed or unzipped(没拉好拉链的). Finally, a friendexplained that Israelis think nothing of staring at others on the street. "
Proper street behavior in the United States requires a nice balance of attention and inattention. You are supposed to look at a passer-by just enough to show that you’re aware of his presence. If you too little, you appear naughty or secretive(不坦率的); if too much, you look too curious. Usually what happens is that people eye each other until they are about eight feet apart, at which-point both cast down their eyes. Dr. Erring Goffman, an expert on society, describes this as "a kind of dimming of lights. " In parts of the Far East it is impolite to look at the other person at all during a conversation. In England the polite listener stares at the speaker attentively and blinks his eyes occasionally as signs of interest. That eye-blink says nothing to Americans, who expect the listener to nod or to murmur something-such as "mm-hmm. "
The main idea of this passage is
选项
A、eye behavior in general
