26、e might come up with a string of things, such as kimchi (泡菜 ), cosmetics and beautiful girls. In fact, Korea is also famous for hand-made clothes. In Korea, you can get a suit that is well made to your measure within a couple of days but be careful about the size because Korean sizes are often a lit

27、tle small, especially to westerners. Even a “large“ size T-shirt bought in Korea can be too small for an American! Korean clothes are made of various kinds of silk and other materials. You can also buy hand-made traditional clothes in Korea. Those traditional Korean clothes have quite a long history

28、 which can be found in ancient wall paintings or on tombs. “Hanbok“ (韩服 ) can be the best representative of Korean culture. Today hanbok is still worn during formal occasions. Hanbok consists of two parts. “Jeogori“ (赤古里 ), the top part, is blouse-like and has long sleeves. For the bottom part, wome

29、n wear “Chima“ (高腰背心裙 ), a kind of skirt, and men wear “Paji“ (巴基 ) , bag-like trousers. White is the color for common people while during festivals or on special days, upper classes will wear clothes in bright colors to indicate their social status. Accessories like jewelry and headdresses complete

30、 traditional Korean clothes. Traditional Korean clothes favor soft flowing lines to hide the bodys shape representing the pursuit for beauty and elegance of Korean people. The designs of various forms of Hanbok represent the rich culture of Korea. 56 Which statement is true about the first paragraph

31、? （ A） It is very difficult to get a hand-made suit in Korea. （ B） Westerners cannot wear Korean clothes because they are often too large. （ C） You can buy traditional Korean clothes and many other kinds of clothing in Korea （ D） All Korean clothes are hand-made by Korean tailors. 57 _ will not appe

A same gesture may have distinct meanings in different countries. For instance, in Africa, people knock at the table with their fingers to call waiters which is con

34、sidered as impolite in China. In western countries, if you make a circle with your thumb and the index finger (食指 ), and then raise the other three fingers, you are suggesting “OK“. The same gesture, however, means “money“ in Japan while makes Brazilian people feel insulted (受侮辱的 ). With that in min

35、d, youd better learn about their custom before travelling to foreign countries. Greeting is an important part of communication between people. When greeting someone, Americans tend to hold out their hands and look directly into his/her eyes and then smile. However, sometimes such behavior might brin

36、g nothing but misunderstanding in other countries. A handshake might not be accepted and looking others right in the eye can have different meanings. Asian people regard physical contact as embarrassing; therefore, they do not shake hands. They have their own ways of greeting people. For Japanese, a

37、 slight bow of the head is enough. In Korea, women do not shake hands or hug with people; while men might shake hands accompanied by nodding the head once. In western Asia, Muslims do not make body contacts with women yet hug is generally accepted among men. Same thing happens on eye contact. In man

38、y countries, people avoid direct eye contact to show respect. This can cause misunderstanding, too. In fact, some Asian students have been regarded as lacking respect for their American teachers exactly because they failed to make eye contacts with their teachers. Though different cultures seem to h

39、ave different ways of greeting, smiling is taken as the universal gesture of friendliness. Smiling indicates happiness or agreement (同意 ) and it can also be used to mean “Excuse me“ or “Please“. So when you are not sure what to do, just smile. 59 When two Japanese men meet, they might greet each oth

40、er by _. （ A） shaking each other （ B） hugging each other （ C） kissing each other on both cheeks （ D） bowing their heads 60 If an American makes an “OK“ gesture to a Japanese, then the Japanese probably think that _. （ A） they have agreed on something （ B） the American feels happy （ C） the American i

41、nsults him （ D） the American wants money 61 What will be regarded as impolite? （ A） Make a direct eye contact with an American （ B） Try to hug a Muslim woman （ C） Bow to a Japanese when you first meet （ D） Smile to a French in order to show that you are happy 62 Whats the best title for this passage
