33、uld only ask his friend:Wassa time, thenTo his teacher he would be much more likely to speak in a more standardised accent and ask: Excuse me, sir may I have the correct time please People are generally aware that the phrases and expressions they use are different from those of earlier generations;
34、but they concede less that their own behaviour also varies according to the situation in which they find themselves; People have characteristic ways of talking, which are relatively stable across varying situations.

35、of speech from one and the same speaker.Not only this, but, in many cases, the way someone speaks affects the response of the person to whom he is speaking in such a way that modelling is seen to occur.

The correspondence between the length of reporters questions when interviewing President Kennedy, and the length of his replies has been shown to have increased over the duration of his 1961-1963 news onferences. Argyle says this process may be one of imitation . Two Americ

41、ted( 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-pitched voice than he would have used with a less irritating customer.The mechanic address f
