28、 to the text and get answers. In the light of these he put further questions, and so on.For most of the time this “conversation” goes on below the level of consciousness.

29、en expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level.Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page; others take off imaginatively from words, interpreting, critic

31、 important, and that has not to do with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a “process” conversation as opposed to a “content” conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we employ in reading. If we are skilled readers, our ability to hold a content conversa

32、tion with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a process conversation.

44、e friendly pubs can be minefields of potential gaffes(失礼)for the inexperienced.An anthropologist and a team of researchers have discovered some of the mysterious rituals of British pubs starting with the difficulty of getting a drink. Most pubs have no waiters you have to go to the bar to buy drinks

45、. A group of Italian youths waited 45 minutes before they realized they would have to fetch their own. This may sound inconvenient, but there is a hidden purpose.Pub culture is designed to promote sociability(合群；友好)in a society known for its reserve. Standing at the bar for service allows you to cha

46、t with others waiting to be served. The bar counter is possibly the only place in the British Isles in which friendly conversation with strangers is considered entirely proper and really quite normal behavior.“If you havent been to a pub, you havent been to Britain.” This tip can be found in a bookl

47、et, Passport to the Pub: The TouristsGuide to Pub Etiquette, a customerscode(行为规范) of conduct for those wanting to experience “a central part of British life and culture”. The trouble is that if you do not follow the local rules, the experience may fall flat. For example, if you are in a big group,

He wore a yellow plastic name tag on which he had written“Jerry”in kindergarten penmanship(书法). He looked middle-aged but his mental

53、 age must have been about 12.Ever since I smiled at him the first time he bagged my groceries at my local supermarket, Jerry has followed me around like an adoring fan. His lack of boundaries makes me uncomfortable. I dont know how to avoid being noticed by him. I dont want to speak to the manager m

54、y complaint could get him fired. So I start avoiding him.There are other grocery stores, but I choose this one because it employs people with disabilities, from which my brothers have also suffered. Last Wednesday after I finished choosing what I wanted, I turned around and drove my cart to Checkout

55、 No.3, hoping Jerry would not notice me and stay at No.14.“Paper or plastic, maam?” Jerrys soft voice surprised me from behind. “Paper, please.” I noticed that the checkout stand created plenty of space between Jerry and the clerk. In this situation, he knew where to stand. The clerk said to me:“27.
