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

【C3】
选项
答案

解析
