Do you realize that you have made a statement? Hold the glance for a second longer, and you have made a different statement. Hold it for 3 seconds, and the meaning has changed again. For every social situation, there is a permissible time that you can hold a person’s gaze without being intimate, rude or aggressive. If you are on an elevator, what gaze-time are you permitted? To answer this question,’ consider what you typically do. You very likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you mean no threat. Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction, you need to emit a signal telling others you want to be left alone. So you cut off eye contact, what sociologist Erving Goffman calls "a dimming of the lights". You look down at the floor, at the indicator lights, anywhere but into another passenger’ s eyes. Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on an elevator, you will make the other person exceedingly uncomfortable, and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.
If you hold eye contact for more than 3 seconds, what are you telling another person? Much depends on the person and situation. For instance, a man and a woman communicate interest in this matter. They typically gaze at each other for about 3 seconds at a time, then drop their eyes down for 3 seconds, before letting their eyes meet again. But if one man gives another man a 3-second-plus stare, he signals "I know you". "I am interested in you "or "You look peculiar and I am curious about you. "This type of stare often produces hostile feelings. [br] If a person wants to be left alone on an elevator, the best thing to do is______.
选项
A、to look into another passenger’ s eyes
B、to avoid eye contact with other passengers
C、to signal that he is not a threat to them
D、to keep a certain distance from other passengers
答案
B
解析
本题为细节题。由第八句,既然紧挨着另一个人是表示有要交流的可能,那你就应该发出一个信号表示你想单独待着。接着第九句提到这个信号就是cut off eyecontact(切断眼神交流),亦即避免眼神交流。故选B。
