A normal conversation between strangers involves more than talk. It also involves the dynamics of space interaction. If one person gets too close, the other person will back up. If the first person (47)______ the other’s space again, the other will back up again. The person who finds himself or herself backing up is trying to increase the distance of the (48)______ zone. The person closing in is trying to decrease the distance. Most likely (49)______ the one nor the other is fully aware of what is going on.
In the 1960s, American anthropologist Edward T. Hall was a pioneer in study of human (50)______ use of space. His field of study became known as proxemics(空间关系学). Hall said that personal space for Americans can be defined as having four (51)______ zones: the (52)______ zone with-in 18 inches of your body for whispering and embracing; personal zone of 18 inches to four feet, for talking with close friends; social zone of four to 10 feet, for talking with (53)______; and the social zone of 10 to 25 feet, for talking to strangers or to a group.
Historians say that our (54)______ of personal space began with the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century. In cities such as London and New York, people of different social and economic classes were suddenly crammed together, so they (55)______ developed a commonly understood rule of polite behavior and space to restrict the area around them.
People exhibit nonverbal messages of (56)______ when their zones are violated. Invaded people might pull at their hair, become rigid, or even become angry. As Hall noted in his work, a comfortable conversation needs to include the range of human personal space.

F. distinct N. acquaintances
G. standards O. either
H. invades

选项
答案
D
解析
此处应填形容词或名词作zone的定语。结合上下文推断,不断退让的一方是想与刘方保持“舒适的”距离或范围,故选D.comfort,同时排除M.discomfort。B.intimate、K.relatives 和 N. acquaintances 都与 increase the distance在语义上矛盾。G. standards 和 C.behavioral(行为的)都过于正式,与此处语境不符。F. distinct和I. explicit为强干扰项,二者都有“清楚的,明确的”之意,而根据下文中的nor the other is fully aware of what is going on可知,这种范围是无意间形成的,因此不可能十分明确。
