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.
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
第一段第八、九句“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’.”。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 eye contact(切断眼神交流),亦即避免眼神交流。故选B。
