问题    Facial expressions carry meanings that are partly determined by culture. For example, many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do, so teachers in the United States sometimes have trouble knowing whether their Japanese students understand and enjoy their lessons.
   Another example is the smile. As a common facial expression, it may show affection, convey politeness, or disguise(掩饰)true feelings. But in different cultures, smiles have different meanings. Many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even a suspicious behavior. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places, for American culture a smile is typically an expression of pleasure. Therefore, some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places: some Americans believe that Russians don ’ t smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to coyer emotional pain or embarrassment. Vietnamese people may tell the sad story of how they had to leave their country but end the story with a smile.
Vietnamese people may end the sad story with a smile to______.
选项 A、show affection
B、disguise emotional pain
C、convey politeness
D、show happiness
答案B
解析 推理判断题。根据文章第二段倒数第二句可知，在东南亚文化中，微笑常用来掩饰悲伤或尴尬，接着就举了越南人的例子。由此可以推知，越南人以微笑结束一个悲伤故事是为了掩饰痛苦。
