Every country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to praise or criticize others as they are similar to or different from it. And unfortunately, our picture of the people and the way of life of other countries is often a distorted (曲解) one.
Here is a great argument in favor of foreign travel and learning foreign languages. It is only by traveling in, or living in a country and getting to know its inhabitants and their language that one can find out what a country and its people are really like. And how different the knowledge one gains this way frequently turns out to be from the second-hand information gathered from other sources 1 How often we find that the foreigners whom we thought to be such different people from ourselves are not very different after all!
Differences between peoples do, of course, exist and, one hopes, will always continue to do so. The world will be a dull place indeed when all the different nationalities behave exactly alike, and some people might say that we are rapidly approaching this state of affairs. With the much greater rapidity and ease of travel, there might seem to be some truth in this at least as far as Europe is concerned. However this may be, at least the greater ease of travel today has revealed to more people than ever before that the Englishman or Frenchman or German is not some different kind of animal from themselves.
One who travels in a foreign country and learns its language will______.
选项
A、find out what its people are like
B、argue in favor of this country and the language
C、know the country and its people better
D、like its inhabitants and their language
答案
C
解析
文中第二段第二句说:“仅通过旅行或定居在一个国家并对这个国家的居民进行了解和学习他们的语言,一个人就能发现:一个国家和它的人民与自己的国家和人民是真正的相似。”由此我们可以得出:一个在外国旅行并对这个国家的语言进行学习的人将能更好地了解这个国家和它的人民。
