In Saudi Arabia, you should not bring food to someone39。s house because taking food or drink suggests that you think the host cannot afford the meal. More and more people around the world are travelling abroad to study, to go on vacation, or to work, and while it can be a great way to learn about other cultures, there may be times when travelers accidentally annoy their host. The same gesture can have very different meanings in different countries. The gesture meaning OK in the United States means something pletely different in Brazil as Ella Yao discovered. Ella had travelled to Brazil to study and was living with a host family. During dinner, her host asked Ella if she was enjoying the meal. Because her mouth was full of food, Ella made a sign with her hand that to her meant OK. Although Ella meant the food was good, this symbol in Brazilian culture is extremely rude and her host was deeply annoyed. While travelling in Thailand, Elizabeth Brown learned that there are differences in food in the United States and Thailand. She stopped at a small, familyowned restaurant in Chiang Mai and ordered spring rolls. She was really enjoying eating them until she got the last one and noticed that there was an insect inside. She plained to the server. Later, she discovered that although insects are disgusting to most Americans, they are considered a delicacy(佳肴) in some countries. All these mistakes can be avoided with some research on cultural differences before you go abroad. However, if you do accidentally annoy someone, quickly apologize, and learn from your mistake.(1)For what reason did Ella make her host angry?A.She spoke with her mouth full.B.Her host misunderstood her gesture.C.She didn39。t like the meal her host prepared.D.Her host didn39。t like using body language.(2)What happened to Elizabeth Brown in a Thai restaurant?A.She ate an insect.B.She was badly treated.C.She argued with the server.D.She learned insects are wele there.(3)What may be the best title for the text?A.What mattersB.When in RomeC.How to be politeD.Why make mistakes【答案】 (1)B(2)D(3)B 【解析】【分析】這是一篇關(guān)于風(fēng)俗文化的文章。文章介紹了在韓國穿著鞋子在家里是不禮貌的和OK這個手勢在美國和巴西的不同以及泰國的飲食文化,告訴我們?yōu)榱吮苊庹`會一定要學(xué)會你所想去國家的文化即入鄉(xiāng)隨俗,如果我們不小心觸碰到了他們的文化要立刻道歉并改正。(1)細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中Because her mouth was full of food, Ella made a sign with her hand that to her meant OK.
