问题     We know the kiss as a form of expressing affection(爱情). But long before it became【C1】______, it was the custom in many parts of the world to use the kiss as a(n)【C2】______of respect. In many African tribes the natives【C3】______the ground over which a chief has walked. Kissing the hand and foot has been a mark of respect from the【C4】______times.

One Roman emperor allowed his important nobles to kiss his lips, but the【C6】______important ones had to kiss his hands, and the【C7】______important ones were【C8】______allowed to kiss his feet!
    It is quite probable that the kiss as a form of affection can be traced back to primitive times when a mother【C9】______fondle(爱抚)her child, just as a mother【C10】______today. It only remained for society to【C11】______this as a custom for expressing affection between adults. We have evidence that this was already the【C12】______by the time of the sixth century, but we can only assume it was【C13】______long before that. The first【C14】______where the kiss became accepted in love was in France. When dancing became popular, almost every dance person ended【C15】______a kiss. From France the kiss spread rapidly all over Europe. Russia, which loved to【C16】______the customs of France, adopted the kiss and it spread there through all the upper【C17】______. A kiss from the Tsar became【C18】______of the highest forms of acceptance. In time, the kiss became a part of love.【C19】______marriage customs developed, the kiss became a part of the wedding ceremony. Today, of course, we regard the kiss as an expression of love. But there are still many places in the world where the kiss is【C20】______of formal ceremonies and is intended to convey respect.
