Each culture has its own form of acceptable greeting behavior, usually based on the level of formality found within the society. The rules of social distance etiquette (礼节) vary by culture. Africans, for example, are far less 【C1】______ in their greetings than Europeans. Expect a warm physical greeting, an extended handshake or a hand on the shoulder in most African cultures. Also expect to be asked how your trip was and how your family is doing. The tradition of long greetings stems 【C2】______ the time when Africans once walked miles to visit neighboring villages on social calls. The arrival and a gushing (说话滔滔不绝的) greeting was considered the 【C3】______ a villager could do for a traveler. Don’t be impatient with such a long drawn-out (冗长乏味的) 【C4】______ and don’t hurry things along. Rather, get into the spirit and appreciate that the person you came to see is prepared to take the time to sincerely 【C5】______ about your welfare.
In Argentina, greetings are usually effusive (过分热情的) with plenty of hugging and 【C6】______ , not unlike the French faire la bise (kiss on both cheeks). This is even the case in business meetings, unless they are of a highly formal nature. In Argentina, men kiss women, women kiss w. omen, 【C7】______ men do not kiss men. By contrast the Chinese way of greeting shuns (回避) the physical. It is【C8】______ a nod or a slight bow. However, when dealing with individuals from cultures where more direct physical contact is the norm, e.g., a handshake, the Chinese will 【C9】______ and shake hands. Don’t interpret a soft handshake or lack of eye contact as a sign of weakness or lack of aggression. It simply means that your Chinese colleague is not overly 【C10】______ to physical contact when greeting a stranger.
A) from I) investigate
B) structured J) touching
C) but K) used
D) generally L) least
E) expedition M) exchange
F) inquire N) chance
G) adapt O) involved
H) kissing
【C5】
选项
答案
F
解析
根据句意,只有动词inquire符合题意,其含义为“询问”,含有深入打听一事的意味。而investigate含义为“调查,研究”,指就某事进行专门的探讨和研究,非常正式化,与文中旬意不符,故可知F)正确。
