25、aste good. Fine! But how much good is it really doing you?What you eat and the way it affects your body depend very much on the kind of person you are.

33、, but rather to maintain a comfortable relationship between people. Its function is to provide a means of avoiding a situation which both parties might otherwise find embarrassing.

These illustrations apply to English and to many European languages. But cultu

37、res vary greatly in the topics which they permit as phatic communication. The weather is not as universal a conversation-filler as the English might like to think. For example, Rundi women (In Burundi, Central Africa) , upon taking leave, are quite often heard to say, routinely and politely, “I must

38、 go home now, or my husband will beat me. “ Moreover, phatic communication itself is far from universal. Some cultures say little; and prefer silence, as in the case of the Paliyans of southern India, or the American of Colombia.21 What is the subject of the passage?（A）Language used to communicate i
