From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who
23、is trying to develop a relationship. Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in
24、 small talk, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries - like the UK or France - people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office. Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once m

27、 quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.

32、d care for such people. The new research suggests that standard tests may ignore patients who have some consciousness, and that someday some kind of communication may be possible. In the strongest example, a 29-year-old patient was able to answer yes-or-no questions by picturing specific scenes the
33、doctors asked him to imagine. “We were stunned when this happened,” said one study author, Martin Monti of the Brain Sciences Unit in Cambridge. “I find it really amazing. This was a patient who was believed to be vegetative for five years.” Ever since a research paper four years ago described obvio
34、us signs of awareness in a vegetative patient, families of patients have been demanding brain scans, said Dr. James Bernat, a spokesman for the American Academy for Neurology. But experts said more study is needed before the specialized brain scans could be used in medical treatment. “Its still a re
35、search tool,” Bernat said. Experts also pointed out that only a few tested patients showed evidence of awareness. And they said it is not clear what degree of consciousness and mental abilities the signs imply. They also noted that the positive signals appeared only in people with traumatic(外伤的 ) br
36、ain injury-not in patients whose brains had been lacking in oxygen, as can happen when the heart stops. The new study used brain scanning called functional MRI, for 23 patients in a vegetative state and 31 that are minimally(极微地 ) conscious. Patients are said to be in a vegetative state if they are
37、tested and found unable to do such things as move on command or follow a moving object with their eyes. Minimally conscious patients show signs of awareness, but they are minimal and discontinuous. 【小题 1】 What is the practical use of the research A It leads to studying how to cure vegetative patient
38、s. B It attracts society to pay more attention to vegetative patients. C It helps doctors know whether patients are vegetative or not. D It drives the government to care about vegetative patients. 【小题 2】 What does the underlined word “stunned” in Paragraph 4 probably mean A Relaxed B Amazed C Excite

42、ve discovered that a big difference between those who make new friends easily, and those who dont, is that socially successful people tend to make eye contact with their conversation partners much more frequently than those who are less successful socially. In fact, you may be able to become much mo
43、re socially successful by making this one simple change to your behavior. Most Americans prefer to have a lot of eye contact when they are talking with someone. When a person doesnt make eye contact with them, they tend to think that the person is hiding something or the person doesnt believe in him
44、self/herself. When you are having a conversation and you want to leave a friendly impression, be sure to keep looking at that person frequently while you are talking. If it really bothers you to look directly into another persons eyes, you can gaze generally at, not above, the eyebrow area or the br
45、idge of the nose; this is close enough to the eye region that you will appear to be looking at the persons eyes. But neither the hair or the shoulders have the same effect. Dont stare at other people too intensely, otherwise, you will look aggressive(攻击性 ). Keep the majority of your focus on the oth
46、er person. If you glance around the room too much, or look too frequently at other people, your conversation partner may guess that you are looking around for someone else you would rather talk with. You can lighten your nervousness by smiling more often, nodding, and by gazing at the entire face as
47、 well as the eyes. In addition, you can frequently look away for very short periods. When people get the sense that you are really paying attention to them, they will be much more likely to want to have conversations with you! 【小题 1】 Which of the following is NOT the impression left by those who dont make eye contact during the talk A They are not telling the truth. B They are bored with the partner. C They are lacking in confidence D They are angry and ready to attack. 【小题 2】 Besides the eyes of the partner, during the talk, you can look at his/her _. A hair B shoulders C the bridge o
