Research shows that a few moments of conversation with a stranger create a measurable improvement in mood. But most of us are reluctant to start these conversations because we presume the opposite. In an experiment, commuters who talked to nearby strangers found their commute more enjoyable than those who didn’t. They were asked to predict whether they’d enjoy the commute more if they conversed with other people. Intriguingly, most expected the more solitary experience to be more pleasurable. Why is this? Social anxiety appears to be the problem. People’s reluctance to start conversations with nearby strangers comes partly from underestimating others’ interest in connecting.
The sad thing is that people presume that a nearby stranger doesn’t want to converse and don’t start a conversation. Only those who forced themselves to chat because it was required by the experiment found out what a pleasant experience it could be. Human beings are social animals. Those who misunderstand the impact of social interactions may not, in some contexts, be social enough for their own well-being. You should be chatting with the strangers you encounter. You may occasionally have a negative encounter that might stick in your memory. This is because the human brain is biased to dwell on negative events. But starting conversations with strangers is still well worth the risk of rejection.
It may surprise you that conversing with strangers will make them happier too. The pleasure of connection seems contagious. People who were talked to had equally positive experiences as those who initiate a conversation.
12.What does research show about a conversation between strangers?
13.What prevents people from starting a conversation with strangers?
14.Why does a negative encounter with strangers stick in one’s memory?
15.What does the passage say the pleasure of connection seems to be?
选项
A、People usually regard it as an unforgettable lesson.
B、Human brains tend to dwell on negative events.
C、Negative events often hurt people deeply.
D、People generally resent being rejected.
答案
B
解析
文章后半部分提到:也许你偶尔会有一次负面遭遇,这可能会留在你的记忆中。这是因为人类的大脑倾向于老是想着负面事件。因此选项B正确。选项A、C文中未提及,故均排除;选项D是根据原文“But starting conversations with strangers is still well worth the risk of rejection(但与陌生人开始对话仍然值得冒被拒绝的风险)”设置的干扰项。该项属于过度推理,故排除。
