To take just one example many people today live together and choose not to get married. This has be
2、come accepted by some. But the English language, like a fussy(大惊小怪的)old grandmother, hasnt quite got used to the idea. How, for example, do you introduce the person you are living with? “Let me introduce you to my man (or woman).” Im afraid that wont do. It sounds as though you are introducing a man
3、servant or a cleaning lady. Well, what about “my boyfriend (or girlfriend)”? That seems all right, but if youre introducing someone who is over forty or fifty, it sounds rather ridiculous. “My friend”, then; OK, but it doesnt give the full picture, does it? You are more than just friends. And if you
4、 say “Were just good friends, people will scream with laughter and immediately assume you are having an affair and want to hide it. Then you might bravely throw back your head and announce in a loud voice; “This is John ( or Mary ). Hes (or shes) my lover.” Well, you could if you wanted to. Some peo
5、ple might even admire you for your courage, but everyone would assume that you were married to someone else, and were introducing the third party who would soon be cited(传唤)in the divorce courts. So what about saying “This is the man (or woman) I live with”? well, for a start, it takes too long to s
6、ay. Secondly, it is too impersonal. Then if you try the term “my partner”, that makes others think of a dancing partner. Why not simply introduce your partner by his or her first name? “Hello everybody, let me introduce John (or Mary).” A brilliant solution. However, when somebody asks, “Oh, whos Jo
7、hn (or Mary)?” you might explain, “Oh, John (or Mary) is my, er, man (or woman), no, my boyfriend (or girlfriend), I mean my friend, I mean” You see, the grandmotherly English language will forbid you to find a word to describe them.21. The writer mainly wants to tell the readers that _.A. English i

Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face
34、or the way you hold your body?Scientists have recently tackled these questions. They found that when a person is looking at your face, she might not believe what she sees if your body language doesnt match the feeling that your face shows. 37 Previously, they had found that the tone of a persons voi
35、ce can be more important than the words that are spoken. For example, most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice, “Im so excited.” When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language, most scientists suspected that the face was more important. To test if
36、this was true, psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated faces and isolated bodies(with faces blurred out)that showed anger or fear. _38_ An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips. A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth. _39_ A
37、 scared body had arms forward and shoulders square, as if ready to defend. These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people.
