　　答案及解析:

　　1. produce—produces

　　两个主语meeting和failing to meet another person's eye 用or连接，谓语动词通常和最邻近的主语一致

　　2. at—into

　　表示方式的状语searchingly暗示应该是“注视”(look into)，而不是一般的“看”(look at)

　　3. where—how

　　根据上下文应为eye contact的方式方法问题

　　4. after—when/if

　　应为条件/假设状语从句，而不是时间状语从句

　　5. 在accused前加the

　　形容词或过去分词前加定冠词，表示一类人，此处the accused为“被告”

　　6. 删除being

　　本文谈的是一般的情形，不需用正在进行时

　　7. such—so

　　注意so和such在用法上的差异，so+adj./adv.+that; such+n.+that

　　8.other—another

　　常用句法结构为one...another

　　9. inattentive—attentive

　　根据英国文化，礼貌的做法是交谈过程中，倾听对方说法时应该用专注的眼神注视说话的人，以表示兴趣，礼貌和关注

　　10. 在control前加to

　　不定式to control the talking pace and time和to indicate a change of topic一起作conversational traffic signal定语
