Eye Language

Just back from a tour of several Arabian Gulf countries, a woman recalls how jumpy she felt talking to men there. "Not because of what they said," she explains, "but what they did with their eyes." Instead of the occasional blink, Arabs lowered their lids so slowly and languorously that she was convinced they were falling asleep. In Japan eye contact is a key to the way you feel about someone. And the less of it,the better. What a Westerner considers an honest look in the eye, the Oriental takes as a lack of respect and a personal affront. Even when shaking hands or bowing — and especially when conversing — only an occasional glance into the other person's face is considered polite. The rest of the time, great attention should be paid to fingertips, desktops, and the warp and woof of the carpet. "Always keep your shoes shined in Tokyo," advises an electronics representative who has spent several days there. "You can bet a lot of Japanese you meet will have their eyes on them."

參考譯文

眼睛的語言

從波斯灣的幾個國家旅行回來後, 一位女士回想起她同當地男子談話時忐忑不安的情景。“不是他們說話的內容，”她解釋說，“ 而是他們說話時的眼神讓我緊張不安。”阿拉伯人不是偶爾眨一下眼睛，而是緩慢而倦怠地垂下眼瞼，這使她誤以爲這些阿拉伯人就要睡着了。

在日本，眼神的接觸是你瞭解別人的關鍵所在。眼神接觸越少越好。西方人認爲看着別人的眼睛是一種誠實的表現，而東方人則將盯視對方看作是不尊敬別人，是對他人的一種冒犯。實際上，在握手或鞠躬的時候，尤其是在兩人交談的時候，偶爾朝對方的臉上掃一眼纔是禮貌的舉動。其他時候，談話人則應把注意力集中在指尖、桌面以及地毯表面的紋理上。“ 在東京，記住一定要讓你的皮鞋保持光亮可鑑。”一位已經在那裏呆了幾天的電子產品代理人提出忠告，“ 我敢說許多你遇到的日本人都會對你的鞋盯上幾眼的。”

閱讀導評

眼睛被譽爲“心靈的窗戶”, 它傳達着無聲的語言, 具有反映深層心理的功能。眼神的交流是人們一個非常重要的交際手段。西方文化中有這樣一句話———不要相信那些不敢直視你的人。在美國人看來, 不直視對方眼睛是不誠實、虛僞、心不在焉的表現; 而在東方人看來, 避免直視對方則是爲了表示禮貌、尊敬或服從。因爲文化不同而造成誤解是在所難免的, 化解尷尬、成功交際的唯一辦法是設法瞭解彼此間的文化差異和風俗習慣。

詞意解析

1. 阿拉伯灣, 也稱爲Persian Gulf ( 波斯灣) , 是印度洋的一個邊緣海, 位於伊朗高原與阿拉伯半島之間。

2. languorously adv. 倦怠地, 無精打采地。該詞的名詞形式是languor ( 倦怠, 慵困) , 動詞形式是languish, 如: His vigilance never languished. ( 他的警覺從未鬆懈過。)

3. 眼神接觸越少越好。這種結構相當於漢語中的“ 越⋯⋯越⋯⋯”, 表示兩個過程按比例同時遞增。better 後面省略了it is, 因爲這種結構往往有省略。例如: The sooner, the better.( 越早越好。)

4. 東方人, 尤指中國人和日本人。與該詞相對應的是the Occidental ( 西方人, 歐美人) 。

5. take . . . as 視⋯⋯爲, 把⋯⋯理解爲, 如: She took what he said as a compliment. ( 她把他的002 話看作是恭維話。)

6. conversing 是converse 的動名詞形式, 意爲“ 談話, 交談”。其名詞形式是conversation。例如: Although they were strangers, they conversed with ease. ( 他們雖然互不相識, 卻談得很自在融洽。)

7. warp n. ( 織物的) 經線; woof n. ( 織物的) 緯線; the warp and the woof of the carpet 指“ 地毯表面的紋理”。the warp and woof of sth. 還可以引申爲“ 某事物的基礎或結構”。

8. have one's eyes on 密切注意, 注視, 如: Businessmen always have their eyes on the new trade opportunities. ( 商人們總在關注着新的貿易機會。)
