一项最新调查研究显示，和你的伴侣吵上一架有益于身体健康。根据一项跟踪了192对美国夫妇17年的调查显示，夫妻两人均压抑自己的愤怒会让他们的死亡率比至少有一方站出来争吵的夫妇高出一倍。夫妇两人在一起，一项主要的任务就是和解冲突。关键在于当发生冲突时，如何消解它？之前的研究已经表明，压抑愤怒会增加和压力相关的疾病的患病率，比如心脏病和高血压。这项研究着眼于婚姻中被压抑的愤怒与其造成的怨恨是如何影响整体死亡率的。这和年龄、吸烟状况、体重、血压、支气管疾病、呼吸状况、患心血管疾病的风险都有关系。一位专家和他的同事们用问卷调查的方式来了解夫妻双方对于那些自己认为不公平的行为是如何回应的。有26对夫妻双方都会选择压抑愤怒，而剩下的166对夫妇中至少有一方会表达自己的愤怒。在夫妻双方均压抑愤怒的家庭中，有一半已经失去了一方配偶，而在另外的166对夫妻中，在17年后失去一方配偶的家庭只占26%。调查还显示，压抑愤怒的夫妇双方均死亡的可能性竟然高达5倍。但是这位专家告诫道，这个结果仍旧是初步的，并不能作为一个有代表性的样本反映目前婚姻关系。 Writing Project Task One

当美国人在谈话时，他们期望别人对其所讲的内容有所响应。对他们来说，有礼貌的谈话者应该靠表现出的惊喜、讨厌、吃惊或悲哀的表情来与别人进行心灵的沟通。人们会用怀疑的眼光看待将感情隐藏于毫无表情的、带着一张“扑克脸”的人。美国人在谈话中也会以扬眉、点头、有礼貌的微笑以及保持适度的目光接触来表示他们对谈话者的注意。然而在某些文化中，人们认为直接的凝视是不礼貌或是一种威胁；美国人则认为这是真挚诚恳的表现。假如一个人不用正眼看你，美国人可能会觉得你应该对他的动机起疑，或者假设他不喜欢你。不过，就对目光接触的关注而言，美国人也认为盯着看人——特别是盯着看陌生人——是不礼貌的。
考虑到非言语交际的影响，我们其实从未真正地停止过沟通。我们如何走路、站立、如何使用双手、如何举手投足、如何表现情绪等都在向他人传递信息。这也就是为什么像俗语所说的“看一个人就像读一本书一样。”假如你读懂了一个人，那么就像在那拥挤房间中的男孩及女孩后来发现的一样，也许一个爱情故事由此诞生。 Writing Project Task One
