The study of distances we keep between us and the amount we touch one another 31 to
wider attention by Edward Hall’s book, The Hidden Dimension. He argued that people use
distance to regulate their privacy and the level of intimacy in an encounter, with the greater

they keep and from whom. Hall used the terms “high contact” and “low contact” to
characterize cultures 34 this respect, but these terms may be too general to capture the full
picture. Studies have shown, for example, that Japanese touch members of the same sex more than

acquaintance, and so forth produce such wide variations in spacing and contact that it becomes
difficult to characterize any group generally. 【題組】35. (A) nor (B) as (C) so (D) but
