主題語境：肢體語言 篇幅：307詞 關鍵詞：eye,contact

1Eyes are frequently referred to as the “windows of the soul” since they are capable of revealing a great deal about how a person is feeling or what he or she is thinking.

2As you engage in conversation with another person,taking note of eye movements is a natural and important part of the communication process.

3Some common things you may notice include whether people are making direct eye contact or averting (避免) their gaze,how much they are blinking,or if their pupils are becoming larger.

4The best way to read someone's body language is to pay attention.Look out for any of the following eye signals.

◆Eye gaze

5When a person looks directly into your eyes while having a conversation,it indicates that he or she is interested and paying attention.However,prolonged eye contact can feel threatening.

6 On the other hand,breaking eye contact and frequently looking away might indicate that the person is distracted,uncomfortable,or trying to conceal his or her real feelings.

◆Blinking

7Blinking is natural,but you should also pay attention to whether a person is blinking too much or too little.

8People often blink more rapidly when they are feeling worried or uncomfortable.Infrequent blinking may indicate that a person is intentionally trying to control his or her eye movements.

◆Pupil size

9Pupil size can be a very subtle non-verbal communication signal.While light levels in the environment control pupil dilation (擴大),sometimes emotions can also cause small changes in pupil size.

10For example,you may have heard the phrase “bedroom eyes” used to describe the look someone gives when they are attracted to another person.Highly dilated eyes,for example,can indicate that a person is interested or even aroused.
