4．In the late 1960s，the anthropologist（人类学家） Edmund Carpenter arrived in New Guinea armed with mirrors，video and Polaroid cameras，and a mission：to disrupt（扰乱） the minds of members of the Biami tribe，who had never seen full reflections or images of themselves. "After their first astonished response—coveting their mouths and ducking their heads—they stood frozen，staring at their images." Carpenter's devices disturb that inner image，causing discomfort.But not for long.Within days，the villagers groomed（打扮） themselves openly before mirrors and began taking Polaroid shots of each other."
It's unclear if the Biami were really as unfamiliar with mirrors as Carpenter thought.But in any case，what's striking isn't how strange their reaction seems，but how relatable.You know how it feels when you make a pleasant remark in a lift，but nobody responds？Or when two people greeting each other misjudge whether to go for a handshake，hug or social kiss？That's the same awkwardness： "self-consciousness tinged with uncertainty，" as Dahl defines it.Suddenly，I see I'm viewed not as a friendly conversationalist，but as a strange person who talks in lifts.
As awkwardness feels unpleasant，it's natural to want to overcome it.Dahl's initial motivation for writing her book A Theory of Awkwardness，was to get over her own.But after a journey through various awkward experiences，she makes a persuasive case for celebrating it.We live in an era with more opportunity than ever to improve the image we're presenting，and more pressure than ever to do so.But awkwardness breaks that false appearance，exposing the imperfect life behind jye.ai.It creates a strange kind of social bond - how much in common we have when seeing that behind the disguise（伪装），-we're all just trying our best to seem perfect.
The awkward you，then，are the real you，the one without the defensive performance.Dahl even indicates that taking a friendlier attitude toward awkwardness might help us make the connections with people holding different opinions.
（1）How did New Guineans feel when they first saw themselves in the mirror？
A．Curious about their looks.
B．Satisfied with their images.
C．Shocked at their reflections.
D．Ashamed of their appearance.
（2）Which of the following awkwardness is "self-consciousness tinged with uncertainty"？
A．You slip over just to the face of your girl in dream.
B．You are caught cheating but get nothing in an exam.
C．You are found standing in public with your trousers zip open.
D．You're refused when offering your seat to a seemingly pregnant woman.
（3）What causes you to feel embarrassed from time to time？
A．Seeking perfection.
B．Not knowing anything novel.
C．Avoiding pressure from others.
D．Lacking courage to face some problems.
（4）What can be inferred to solve our awkwardness？
A．Treat others in a friendly way.
B．Connect with your friends regularly.
C．Get ready to guard against any threat from others.
D．Express yourself honestly with no defensive cover.组卷：0引用：1难度：0.7
