When you have to meet someone from a different culture, be prepared. If you understand cultural differences, you’ll be a better communicator — even before you open your mouth!
In many Western cultures, men stand up before they are【C1】______to someone important. Standing up shows politeness and【C2】______. After that, someone will usually offer to shake hands. But in the East,【C3】______introductions often begin and end with bowing rather than shaking hands.
Now, let’s look at the simple introduction of shaking hands. Americans like a【C4】______handshake. But the French【C5】______a light, short handshake. If you shake a Frenchman’s hand the American way, he may think you’re uncultured.
People in Eastern European countries and some Latino cultures prefer shorter handshakes, too. Hugging after shaking hands is also a common introduction. Don’t be scared or【C6】______if you meet someone in Brazil and he gives you a hug. If you【C7】______this gesture, your friendship may not start well!
The【C8】______customs for eye contact vary between cultures, too. Westerners appreciate regular eye contact during conversations. Refusing to look at a Westerner in the eye may be understood as lack of trust, or maybe【C9】______. But in some African countries, too much eye contact can offend or sometimes have romantic meanings. Some people in Middle Eastern countries may appear to have their eyes half-closed while talking to you. Although it might seem like they’re tired or bored, such behaviour is normal and should not be taken【C10】______.
A)proper I)light
B)respect J)impression
C)boredom K)introduced
D)naturally L)illustrate
E)prefer M)offended
F)firm N)typical
G)misinterpret O)preferable
H)personally
【C10】
选项
答案
H
解析
空前的should not be taken表明,本空应填一副词,故D)naturally和H)personally入选。由前面的这种行为是正常的(normal)可知,如果本空填入naturally(自然地)。则此处意为(不要自然地看待这种行为),造成句子前后矛盾,故排除D),故答案为H)personally。should not be takenpersonally意为“看待这种行为不应带有个人的想法”。
