so Not all changes can be explained as tradition or custom And what causes these differences in the first place How did some of them become traditional In Thailand it is very rude to walk into a person s house with your shoes on 第 4 页 共 18 页 Shoes are left at the front door And it is considered rude to cross your legs in company and to point your toes at another person The feet as the lowest part of the body are given the lowest respect Pointing a toe is demeaning to the person at whom the foot is pointed Equally the head is the most important part of the body and should never be touched by another Children in most western countries are familiar with being patted on the head and consider it a compliment In Thailand however it is extremely rude Also in Thailand and some other Asian countries when two people meet it is the practice to hold the two hands together in a prayer position It is called a whai in Thailand and takes the place of the western handshake Once again this is a much cleaner greeting as there is nobody contact The height of the hands raised shows the importance of the person to whom the whai is made The most common whai between two equals is with the tip of the fingers at nose level When a person of a lower status 社会地位 meets a person of a higher status the former raises the hands to forehead height and the latter to chest height It is a very convenient way to greet a friend with a whai in a crowded room where personal contact is difficult It seems so much more dignified and sincere to greet with a whai rather than a wave 招呼 It is those customs which travelers consider odd that make travel worthwhile 1 If you want to visit a friend in Thailand it s necessary to A leave your shoes at the door of your house B take off your shoes before entering his house C cross your feet to show your respect D point your toes at your friend 2 The underlined word demeaning in part 2 probably means A shameful B careful C important D impolite 第 5 页 共 18 页 3 It s very rude to pat on the head in Thailand because A people consider it as compliment B the head is given the lowest respect C the head is the most important part D children are never allowed to touch the head 4 It may not be by greeting Thais with a whai A clean B convenient C strange D sincere 5 If you have a Thai classmate you greet him by holding two hands with the tip of the fingers at level A nose B eye C chest D forehead 6 We can infer from this passage that A travelers have to accept foreign customs B tradition is the main reason to cause differences among countries C the writer help people understand and follow different customs D the writer stress the importance of respecting others 3 18 分 阅读理解 第 6 页 共 18 页 A Mr and Mrs Smith got married when he was twenty three and she was
