6、eGood morning, everyone. Today, we'll talk about closeness and personal space. Every culture has different levels of physical closeness appropriate to different types of relationship, and individuals learn these distances from the society in which they grew up. When someone violates an appropria
7、te distance, people may feel uncomfortable or defensive. Their actions may well be open to misinterpretation.In Western society, four distances have been defined according to the relationship between the people involved. They are intimate distance, personal distance, social distance, and public dist
8、ance. These four distances are associated with the four main types of relationship- intimate, personal, social and public.Now we'll talk about the four personal distances one by one.First, we'll begin with intimate distance. Intimate distance ranges from close contact, such as touching, to 4
9、5cm. In British society, it tends to be seen as an inappropriate distance for public behaviour and entering the intimate space of another person with whom you do not have a close relationship can be extremely disturbing.Next, let's look at the second type of distance, personal distance, which ra
10、nges from 45cm to1.2m. The far phase of personal distance is considered to be the most appropriate for people holding a conversation. At this distance it is easy to see the other person's expressions and eye movements, as well as their overall body language. Handshaking can occur within the boun
11、ds of personal distance.OK, let's move onto the third type of personal distance, social distance, which covers the range from 1.2m to 3.6m. This is the normal distance for impersonal business, for example working together in the same room or during social gatherings. Seating is also important; c
12、ommunication is far more likely to be considered as a formal relationship if the interaction is carried out across a desk In addition, if the seating arrangements are such that one person appears to look down on another, an effect of domination may be created. At a social distance, speech needs to b
13、e louder and eye contact remains essential to communication, otherwise feedback will be reduced and the interaction may end.Finally, the last type of personal distance is public distance, which ranges from 3.7m to 4.5m. Teachers and public speakers address groups at a public distance. At such distan
14、ces exaggerated non-verbal communication is necessary for communication to be effective. Subtle facial expressions are lost at this distance, so clear hand gestures are often used as a substitute. Larger head movements are also typical of an experienced public speaker who is aware of changes in the
15、way body language is perceived at longer distances.OK, today we've taken a brief look at the four personal distances associated with four main types of relationship. It is worth noting that these distances are considered the norm in Western society. Understanding these distances allows us to app
16、roach others in non-threatening and appropriate ways. We can understand how others feel about us, how they view the relationship and, if appropriate, adjust our behaviour accordingly.SECTION B CONVERSATIONS Conversation One1.

23、's about my term paper. I know it's due next Monday, but I was hoping. I don't think I can get it done by then. Could I please turn it in by the end of next week instead I have a really good excuse.W: Oh, I'm sure you do! I've been teaching 33 years. Do you know how many excuses
24、I've heard "My dog ate my paper." "My roommate had a party so I couldn't concentrate." "I have seven papers due on the same day!" "I went home to see my parents and my car broke down." My favorite was a student who told me she "forgot" all ab
25、out her term paper until the day beforeit was due. It's amazing she remembered to come to class.M: I didn't forget, madam. I've been working on the paper, really! Here, I brought my outline and a rough draft. It's just that. Well, a lot of things have been going on in my life, and I&
26、#39;m having trouble managing things.W: I see. You know, I assigned that paper four weeks ago, and I've been reminding students about it in each class. So, tell me your story. What's happening in your lifeM: First, about two weeks ago, my roommate found out his mother was real sick. So he
27、9;s been really upset, and, uh,well, I went home with him for a couple of days to see his mom. That caused me to miss biology lab, and I have a huge biology final coming up on Tuesday that I really need to study for this weekend. Then I got the flu last week, and missed a day of class. I tried to wo
28、rk on your paper that day, but I really felt horrible.W: OK, I can understand that. I'm glad that you're helping your roommate through a tough time. That's more important than school work. But all this seems to have happened recently. What about the two weeks after I first assigned the t
29、erm paperM: I guess I didn't use that time very well. I kind of put off getting started on it.W: Yes, you did. You know, if I had a dollar for every time I've heard a student say that.M: I'm sorry, Professor. I've learned my lesson. If I had spent just a little bit of time each week
30、on the paper, I could have had it done on time. I know now that I need to plan for unexpected things.W: You seem like a bright, conscientious young man. So I'll tell you what. This time you can turn in your paper no later than 9 a., right here on my office desk.M: Thank you, Professor! You bet I
31、 will.Questions 1-5 are based on Conversation One.1. Why does the man visit the woman2. What is the man's excuse3. According to the man, what happened to his roommate4. What lesson has the man learned from talking to the woman5. What does the woman think of the manConversation TwoM: Hi! Welcome
32、to WebWare. Sit down please.W: Thanks, nice to see you again.M: You too. So, you said you wanted to come in and have a chat with me before you start your work here. Tell me about it.W: Yeah, I just want to have a look round and ask a few more questions. I'm wondering whether it is okay for me to
33、 do so.M: Of course, just fire away with your questions!W: Well, first of all, I was surprised when I received the e-mail about the offer. Thank you for trusting me, and I am delighted to receive the job offer.M: Good! And we are delighted to offer it to you.W: But. before I sign the contract there
34、are one or two specifics I want to talk about.M: Ok. "specifics" Tell me what they are.W: Well. I read from your last e-mail that there is a pay scale, instead of a fixed salary. Is that right M: Yes, you're quite right about it. As a new employee in our company, you'd be at the lo
35、wer end of the pay scale. And of course, things get changed later when you continuously bring contribution to the company.W: But taking my experience into account.M: Well, you haven't had that much experience- we see you as an investment.W: But that salary would only be a little more than I'
36、m making now. So, instead of asking for a higher level on the pay scale, I thought this could be compensated by adding certain bonuses, for instance if I make certain sales targets, or even break them, I would be looking for a good cash payment, or stock options in the company. Would it be possibleM
37、: Well, that is something we sometimes offer to senior members of staff, but to show good faith I'll provisionally offer you the bonus scheme, but I'll have to okay it with Philip first.W: That's fine. One more thing, I also see there are 25 days holiday.M: Yes. That's standard.W: It
38、's not very much for a high pressure job though.M: I'm sorry I can't offer you any more holiday. Only the staff who work here for over three years can get extra days, so you will get more holiday after you work here for a longer time.W: No, I don't mean that. But I was wondering if I
39、 could delay the start date- so instead of starting a week from now, as we discussed, I could start in a month's timeM: You're a tough negotiator, Madison!W: That's one of the reasons you hired me!M: Yes, of course. Okay, I think we can do that. I'll look forward to seeing you in a m
