精讀課文譯文
說(shuō)起“交流”，大多數(shù)人會(huì)想到單詞或句子，雖然單詞或句子十分重要，但我們也并不只是用口語(yǔ)和書(shū)面語(yǔ)進(jìn)行交流，身體的姿態(tài)是我們所稱(chēng)的“身勢(shì)語(yǔ)”的一部分。我們經(jīng)常看到無(wú)意識(shí)的身勢(shì)語(yǔ)，但也有“習(xí)得”的身勢(shì)語(yǔ)。習(xí)得的身勢(shì)語(yǔ)在不同的文化中各不相同。
當(dāng)我們被介紹給生人時(shí)，我們使用“習(xí)得的”身勢(shì)語(yǔ)。跟動(dòng)物一樣，我們會(huì)保持警覺(jué)，直至知道安全的時(shí)候才放松。因此，在所有的文化中人們都有一種向陌生人打招呼的正規(guī)的方式，以表示他們并不具有侵犯傾向。歐美人的傳統(tǒng)是握手，他們用右手握手——右手對(duì)多數(shù)人來(lái)說(shuō)更有力一些。假如右手用于忙著與人打招呼就不可能握武器。因此，這種手勢(shì)的意思是“我信任你，瞧，我沒(méi)帶威脅性的武器”，假如你和人握手，就是在表明你信任他們。我們?cè)谧鼋灰讜r(shí)與人握手，意思就是“我們達(dá)成了協(xié)議，相互信任”。
