11、and spoke about a wide rang of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was worried that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat.

17、r Guy”. “The lift becomes this interesting social space where etiquette (礼仪) is sort of odd (奇怪的),” Gray told the BBC. “Elevators are socially very interesting but often very awkward(尴尬的）places.”We walk in and usually turn around to face the door. If someone else comes in, we may have to move. And h

18、ere, according to Gray, lift users unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements. He told the BBC what he had observed.He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want its your own little box.If there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing

19、 diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance.When a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle(三角形）.

21、University of Berlin, told the BBC. “Usually when we meet other people, we have about an arms length of distance between us.
