39、e profitably considered as an unconscious reflection of speakers’ needs for social integration with one another.This process of modelling the other person’s speech in a conversation could also be termed speech convergence. It may only be one aspect of a much wider speech change. In other

40、 situations, speech divergence may occur when certain factors encourage a person to modify his speech away from the individual he is’dealing with. For example, a retired brigadier’s wife, renowned for her incessant snobbishness, may return her vehicle to the local garage because of inade

41、quate servicing, voicing her complaint in elaborately phrased, yet mechanically unsophisticated( 不老练的 ) language, with a high soft-pitched voice. These superior airs and graces may simply make the mechanic reply with a flourish of almost incomprehensible technicalities, and in a louder, more deeply-

42、pitched voice than he would have used with a less irritating customer.The mechanic address from the retired brigadier's wife is an example of（） A．response matching B．speech convergence C．speech divergence D．need for equilibrium 6.Text 2An English schoolboy would only ask his friend:Wassa time
