Mã đề: 173 Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer
Movements and gestures by the hands, arms, legs, and other parts' of the body and face are the most pervasive types of nonverbal messages and the most difficult to control It is estimated that there are over 200.000 physical signs capable of stimulating meaning in another person For example, there are 23 distinct eyebrow movements, each capable of stimulating a different meaning
Humans express attitudes toward themselves and vividly through body movements and postures Body movements express true messages about feelings that cannot be masked Because such avenues of communication are visual, they travel much farther than spoken words and are unaffected by the presence of noise that interrupt, or cancels out speech
People communicate by the way they walk, stand, and sit We tend to be more relaxed with friends or when addressing those of lower status Body orientation also indicates status or liking of the other individual More direct orientation is related to a more positive attitude
Body movements and postures alone have no exact meaning, but they can greatly support or reject the spoken words If these two means of communication are dichotomized and contradict each other, some result will be a disordered image and most often the nonverbal will dominate

Read the following passage, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
CUTTING THE APRON STRINGS
There is substantial evidence that students going off to college have changed over the years For one thing, studies show that they are emotionally closer to their parents and their parents to them One thing that means is that they depend on each other more for happiness It puts a burden on children for parents to use their children as vehicles for their own happiness- although today's young people seem complicit in this arrangement, perhaps because they've known no other way-even if it creates anxiety in the children That's one reason parents like to be involved in their children's college experiences, and colleges have had to devise novel ways of getting parents off campus when they transport their kids to school
There's also evidence that students today seem to be choosing schools with reference to proximity to home The closer a student is to home, the easier it is to bring the laundry home and to land in your old bed with tea and sympathy when you have the sniffles And the easier it is for parents to visit you at university whenever the mood strikes The amount of visiting parents is far more than in generations past
But in a real sense, students don't really leave their parents behind Their parents go to college right along with them - in their front pockets That is, the parents are a speed dial away by cell phone This, of course, significantly reduces independence A student doesn't get the chance to solve minor problems on his own - he just calls Mom or Dad A student has initial problems getting along with a roommate? A roommate doesn't laundry as often as the other roommate wishes? A student gets a C grade on her first paper? Instead of absorbing the negative information and figuring out how to resolve the problem or how to better, the call gets made to home, where Mom or Dad solves the problem, often by calling the school administration This kind of behavior is, sadly, commonplace today and is a mark of the lack of coping skills among students because all the lumps and bumps have been taken out of life for them until now
In addition to being tethered to parents, incoming freshmen are now very heavily connected by cell phone to classmates from high school, who are presumably at other colleges
So there isn't the great impetus to mix and venture forth to meet new people, to get out of one's comfort zone, to get drawn into new experiences, that has traditionally marked the beginning of freshman year The laws of physics still apply, and it is difficult to be meeting new people and seeking novel experiences while you are talking to your old pals
