24、故填is。3考查非限制性定语从句关系词。此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词是Eye contact,指物,在从句中作主语,应用关系代词which。故填which。4考查副词。此处用副词widely(很大程度上)作状语修饰动词vary。故填widely。5考查固定搭配。句意:在这里,如果你和一个人有很好的眼神交流,这通常意味着你关心那个人在说什么。固定搭配be concerned with(关心)。故填concerned。6考查连词。句意:如果你低下头,或者远离一个人,而不是去见他/她,你就会被认为是对他/她不关注或不感兴趣。由句意可知,空前空后表选择关系,应用连词or,构成固定搭配eitheror
25、(或)。故填or。7考查动词不定式。固定搭配refuse to do sth.(拒绝做某事),此处用动词不定式形式(to do)。故填to meet。8考查名词。句意:另外,如果你拒绝与一个人进行眼神交流,你可能会被认为缺乏自信。lack后缺乏名词作宾语,confidence意为“自信”是不可数名词,此处用名词confidence。故填confidence。9考查时态和语态。本文讲的是事实,时态用一般现在时,主语是a person(定语从句who makes eye contact with another person修饰名词a person),主语a person和谓语动词think是被动关系,应用一般现在时的被动语态(am/is/are done),主语是单数,谓语也用单数。故填is thought。10考查固定搭配。固定搭配in summary(总之)。故填in。
