Of course, some people have remarkable chances which lead to fame and success without this long and hard training. Connie Pratt, for example, was just an ordinary girl working in a bicycle factory.

听力原文:M: Come in!
W: Er, excuse me, professor Serafin, are you busy?
M: No, Miss Van Pelt, I've always got time for you. There're several things I want to talk to you about.
W: Oh, really?
M: Yes, er, it's about your class attendance for one thing, you now. You have been missing several classes.
W: Oh, well, that's kind of related to what I was going to ask you about, too.
M: Oh, what's your excuse now? This is the second time you've been around.
W: Well, it's not an excuse. But, er, a kind of get lost in the discussions in class.
M: That seems to be the idea. You're always lost out there in space somewhere. You've got problems on your mind?
W: No. It's just the way of the discussion. There are a couple of students in the class who dominate the conversation and they won't let any other ideas come in. And the topics I think are very difficult and most of the students don't understand.
M: Well, why do you have two hands?
W: Well, if I say something, especially this Janet woman, she usually interrupts me about half way through and finishes my sentence or tells me I am wrong.
M: All right. Maybe that's the way we should have our conversation and discussions, you know. If she dominates, then of course, you've got to assert yourself.
W: Well, maybe I can learn to assert myself. But there are a few students in the class who must be very bright, who will never speak up in that kind of atmosphere.
M: I see. And what is your suggestion for me then?
W: Well, I know that you can't tell her not to talk. But maybe, you could tell her the rest of us don't know as much as she does and we need to have some practice in discussion.
M: I see. I agree with you there. Domination of the conversations in the classes is not one person's privilege. But on the other hand, it's quite necessary for you to be able to take the lead sometimes, you know.
W: Well, I'll try to speak more and I hope that other students will also say something.
M: That's the point. Everyone should grasp the chance to make himself understood.
W: I see.

Perhaps the most startling theory to come out of kinesics, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Birdwhistell.He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed.In other words, we learn our books, but we are not born with them.A baby has generally unformed facial features.A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around family and friends.This helps explain why the people of some regions of the United States look so much alike.New Englanders or Southerners have certain common facial characteristics that cannot be explained by genetics.The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth;it is learned after.In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after permanent teeth are set.For many, this can be well in adolescence.A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike.We learn our looks from those around us.This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas.In the United States, for example, the South is the part of the country where the people smile more frequently.In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York state still less.Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia.People in densely populated urban areas also tend to smile and greet each other in public less than do people in rural areas and small towns.()
A.Ray Birdwhistell can tell what region of the United States a person is form. by how much he or she smiles
B.Ray Birdwhistell is a leader in the field of kinesics
C.Ray Birdwhistell says that our physical appearance is influenced by the appearance of people around us
D.People who live in the country are more friendly than people who live in densely populated areas
