问题 According to the passage, the English make clear distinctions between ______.
According to the passage, eating together indicates all the following EXCEPT ______.

选项 A、the type of food.
B、social relations.
C、martial status.
D、family ties.

答案A

解析 细节题。此题可用排除法解答。文章的第三段和第五段都提到了一起用餐。第三段讲述的在新几内亚及新爱尔兰,结婚的标志就是两人第一次一起用餐(In many New Guinea societies, like that of the Lesu on the island of New Ireland in the Pacific and that of the Trobriand Islanders, marriage is symbolized by couple’s eating together for the first time.。由此可知,在这些地方,一起用餐表示两人已结为夫妇,即婚姻状况(martial status)和家庭关系(family ties)。故,答案C和D排除。在最后一段中,作者提到,在印度,人们是否在一起用餐由他们所属的种姓决定(Because of the fear of pollution, Brahmans and other high-ranked individuals will not share food with, not eat from the same plate as, not even accept food from an individual from a low-ranking caste.)。南此可知,在印度,一起用餐的标准为种姓的高低,而种姓代表社会关系(social relations),故答案B排除在外。因此,选择答案A,文中没有提到一起用餐可以决定食物的类型。
