Many of us use a lift several times during the day without really thinking about it. But Lee Gray, PhD, of the University of N

12、orth Carolina, US, has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport. He is known as the “Elevator Guy”.“The lift becomes this interesting social space where etiquette (礼仪) is sort of odd,” Gray told the BBC. “They are socially very interesting but often very awkward place

13、s.”We walk in and usually turn around to face the door. If someone else comes in, we may have to move. And here, 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 d

14、o whatever you want its your own little box.If there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance.When a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle. And when there is a fourth person it becomes a square, with som

15、eone in every corner. A fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle.New entrants(新进入者) to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. Once in, for most people the rule is simple look down, or look at your phone.Why are we so awkwar

16、d in lifts?“You dont have enough space,” Professor Babette Renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin, told the BBC. “Usually when we meet other people we have about an arms length of distance between us. And thats not possible in most elevators.”In such a small, enclosed sp

17、ace it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be construed (理解) as threatening or odd. “The easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.21. According to Gray, when people enter an elevator, they usually _.A. try to keep a distance from other people B. look around or examine

18、 their phoneC. make eye contact with those in the elevator D. turn around and greet one another22.

20、phones become increasingly important assistants in their lives. As we rely too much on technology instead of our brains, many people have lost three basic abilities.The first skill many people have lost is remembering phone numbers. Because phone numbers are stored in smartphone contacts, theres now

21、 no need to dial a number or look at it again. This is fine until you need to call someone for help, only to find your phone is not around.And some people may also have lost their sense of direction because navigation apps can guide people anywhere they want. People get so dependent on them that whe

22、n they cant use their smartphones, they get lost and anxious.But the worst lost skills may be social ones, meaning that some people are becoming socially inept(无能的)People often bury themselves in their smartphones. As were too absent-minded by whats happening in the virtual(虚拟的)world, some of us hav

23、e lost conversational skills and sometimes cant even distinguish whether a person is happy or not.Last August, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, studied 51 students aged 11 and 12 who had over five hours screen time every day. Their task was to tell the emotions of 48 picture

24、s of faces that were happy, sad, angry or scared.The children made an average of 14.02 mistakes at the beginning. But after a five-day camp without electronic products, they made only 9.41 mistakes on average.Luckily, people still have a chance to get these abilities back. You should try to keep you

25、r parents numbers in mind for emergencies. You should also pay more attention to street signs and stores , which will help you to draw a mind map and stop you from getting lost. And the easiest solution to social skill loss is to take a break from electronic products.25. The underlined sentence in t
