In most cultures, when you meet acquaintances for the first time during a day, it is normal to greet them. The main purpose of this greeting is to【61】a good relationship between the people【62】, and each language usually has【63】set phrases that can be used for this purpose. Sometimes, though, there can be considerable【64】in the type of phrases that can be used, and【65】misunderstandings can easily arise. The following is a true story.
A young British woman went to Hong Kong to work, and at the【66】of her arrival she knew【67】about the Chinese culture or language.【68】her way to school one day, she went to the bank to get some money. To her surprise, the bank clerk asked her whether she had had her lunch before she went to the bank. She was extremely surprised at【69】a question because in the British culture it would be regarded as an indirect【70】to lunch. Between unmarried young people it can also show the young man’s interest in【71】the girl. Since this bank clerk was a complete stranger【72】the British girl, she was very much surprised. After a moment she answered that she had already eaten quickly. Then she went on her way to her school and was even more surprised when one of the teachers asked her the【73】question. By now she realized that it could not be an invitation,【74】was confused why they all asked this question. In the following days she was asked the same question again and again, and she spent hours trying to explain【75】why so many people kept asking her this.【76】,she came to a conclusion: the people who【77】inquiring her about the same thing must be concerned about her【78】. She was somewhat underweight at the time, and so she concluded they must be worrying that she was not【79】very well! Only much later【80】that the question had no real sense at all it was only a greeting.
选项
A、parental
B、political
C、cultural
D、musical
答案
C
解析
本题为词义辨析题。根据上文,由于差别的存在,误解就可能发生。但这种误解不是政治的(political)原因引起的,更不是父母亲(parental)的或音乐的(musical)误解;而是在交往过程中的不同语言不同文化造成的。
