Do you have such kind of experience? On a bus you may look at a stranger,but not too long.And if he is sensing that he is being stared at,he may feel uncomfortable.
The same is in daily life.If you are looked at for more than necessary time,you will look at yourself up and down,to see if there is anything wrong with you.If nothing goes wrong,you will feel angry toward others’ stare at you that way.Eyes do speak,right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive(好斗的).But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex.If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to avert(转移)his gaze,his intentions are obvious:he wishes to attract her attention,to make her understand that he is admiring her.
However,the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time,in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking.As for the listener,he will,to a certain extent,look continuously at the speaker,to tell him that he is attentive.
If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking,as if he tries to dominate(控制)you,you will feel upset.A poor liar usually exposes(暴露)himself by looking too long at the victim,since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.Quite the contrary.
In fact,continuous eye contact is confined to(局限于)lovers only,who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time,to show affection that words cannot express.
Evidently,eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.

Africans see many advantages by uniting the continent into a single nation, or by uniting several small nations of a particular region into a nation. In unity there is strength. Africans often point to the United States, formed by the original 13 states, as an example of this principle. Africa now is divided into many weak nations. United, they would be much stronger. Africans could then more easily deal with foreign efforts to control them. Also it would be easier to plan and carry out big projects like the building of highways and dams.
The considerations for African unity go beyond the practical advantages it brings. As we have seen, one factor is that the feeling of belonging to a particular nation is not strong among Africans. If, for example, you were to ask a man from Paris " What are you?", he would certainly answer " A Frenchman". Ask the same question of a man from Ibadan in Nigeria and he might give one of three answers, or all three, depending on his education and outlook. He might say, " A Yoruba" (his people), or " A Nigerian," or just simply " An African."
Another factor that enters into the desire for unity is that African leaders throughout the continent feel that they all have many things in common. They all lived through the experience of colonial rule. Many of them went to school and university with men who now lead other African countries. They all feel very angry about the way in which they were treated in the past. Compared with these strong bonds (结合),which overshadow the borders of nations, the idea of building separate nations does not have so much meaning. Some leaders say they are ready, in fact, to give up their separate nations.
Many nations have written into their constitutions(宪法), and they may give up their powers to a Pan-African government that will come into being.
