Although it is a public gesture, a reflexive【 C3】 _of greeting, the handshake has a clammy dimension of【 C4】 _. The clamminess is illustrated in principle by t
5、he following: a young【 C5】 _ rushed up to James Joyce and asked, “May I kiss the hand that wrote Ulysses?“ Joyce replied, “No. It did lots of other things, too.“ Most of us dont think about it. The handshake is expected and is【 C6】 _automatically in a ritual little babble of nice to meet you how do

Now that he is almost a candidate, how is the fussy, hygienic Donald to keep his【 C9】 _in an election years orgies
7、of grip-and-grin? Mingling with the【 C10】 _, he will presumably shake tens of thousands of germy hands. The most graceful【 C11】 _ the Hindu namaste(slight bow, hands clasped near the hart as in prayer) would not play well in American politics. One【 C12】 _might be to shake your own hand, brandishing
8、the two-handed clutch in font of your face like a champ while looking the voter in the【 C13】 _. No. Too much self-congratulation. A politician mustnt【 C14】 _his narcissism. Best not to think about it. Television has taken so much of the physicality the sheer touch out of politics that we should【 C15
9、】 _the vestigial handshake, the last fleeting, primitive human contact, flesh to flesh, sweat to sweat, pulse to pulse. A true politician loves shaking hands. Study Bill Clinton working a rope line. Greedily, avidly, his long, curiously angled fingers【 C16】 _deep into the crowd to make the touch, an
10、 image that in my mind has some cartoonists【 C17】 _to Michelangelos Adam on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Lyndon Johnson pressed flesh with the same gluttonous physicality, wading into the human surf, clawing and pawing into the democratic mass with an appetite amazing, alarming. On the【 C18】 _side, t
11、he handshake may be a form of souvenir collecting.

He looked like a Rotarian Santa Claus. Af
13、ter the Senators and pages all shook his band a dry hand, soft and bony at the same time, like grasping a small, fragile bird another page,【 C22】 _by his (rather forgiving)sense of history, Exclaimed, “Im never going to wash my hand again!“ If the social handshake has its anthropological【 C23】 _in t
14、he idea of primitive man showing he was not carrying a weapon, the political handshake【 C24】 _from long ago when kings touch might do magic and when the power of such connection seemed infinitely more【 C25】 _than the potential germs. To touch was to【 C26】 _somehow maybe even through the germs of the
15、 kings magic. Surely voters will imagine that when they shake hands with Donald Trump, gold will【 C27】_off. (Of course, bad magic may also be communicated. Maybe the handshake with Herbert Hoover many years ago explains why, from time to time, I am visited by a great depression.) If Trump were to th
16、ink about it, he might be grateful that contact with the electorate is not more intimate than it is. Suppose it were【 C28】 _for a politician to kiss not only an occasional baby but also every voter in that mating-goose, cocktail-party way? It could be even【 C29】 _. Among some tribes in the highlands

19、【 M1】_ their responsibilities to kins and neighbors, and substituted in their place【 M2】 _ for superficial relationships with passing acquaintances.【 M3】 _ However, in recent years a growing body of research has revealed that the “obvious“ is not true. It seems that if you are a city resident, you t
20、ypically know a smaller proportion of your neighbors than you if you are a resident【 M4】_ of a smaller community. But, for the most part, this fact has a few significant【 M5】_ consequences. It does not necessarily follow that if you know few of your neighbors you will know no one else. Even in very
21、large cities, people maintain close social ties within small, private social worlds. Indeed, the number and quality of meaningful relationships do not differ from more and less urban people. Small-town【 M6】 _ residents are more involved with kin than do big-city residents. Yet city【 M7】 _ dwellers c

Urbanism may produce a different style of life, but the quality of life does not differ between town and city. Or are residents【 M8】_ of large communities any likely to display psychological symptoms of【 M9】
23、_ stress or alienation than are residents of smaller communities. However, city dwellers do worry more about crime, and which leads them to a distrust【 M10】_ of strangers. 31 【 M1】 32 【 M2】 33 【 M3】 34 【 M4】 35 【 M5】 36 【 M6】 37 【 M7】 38 【 M8】 39 【 M9】 40 【 M10】 三、阅读理解 40 For most of the 20th centur
