Today , in many parts of the world, it is customary for people to shake hands upon meeting as gesture of good
will.Originally,however ,the practice of shakeing hands had a more practical purpose
Shaking hands originated in medieval times In those days,when a man came on a stranger , he would often
automatically reach for his sword with his right hand, in case he had to use the weapon to defend himself Sometimes, both parties found themselves circling around each other , weapons in hand, until it was mutually agreed that the weapons could be laid aside Then, the two parties extended their right hands to show they had no weapons , and clasped them This was the beginning of the handshake
The custom of shaking hands is not a universal one In the Orient, people have ,for centuries, clasped their own hands in front of them upon meeting to show that they held no weapons In France , a custom developed in which people who met would kiss each other on both cheeks The natives of some South Seas islands greet by rubbing noses
41 At first the purpose of shaking hands was………
A to show a good relationship with each other B to show that there was no weapons in hands
C to show that both parties were ready for a fight D a gesture of good will
42 To show that one has no intention to fight , ………
A shaking hands has been practiced all over the world B the oriental people kiss each other’s hand
C people laid aside their weapons D there have been various ways depending on different cultures
43 According to the passage , the practice of shaking hands………
A was used to extend greetings B used to be popular , but now it is out of date
C is replaced by other customs in some countries D is considered not to be very polite
44 The word “ came on ” in the second paragraph can best be replaced by………
A waited for B visited C attacked D happened to meet
45 Which of the following is not true about the handshake ?
A It happened for the first time very long times ago B It is a gesture of good will
C It is very popular all over the world D It is one of the social customs

Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
When people plan to marry, they expect to find in their partner not only a lover but a friend also They find a person with whom they can share their opinions, their emotions, thoughts and fears In marriage we are looking for a partner who will be able to understand our values, our likes and dislikes
If a man and a woman are born and raised in the same country, most likely they are familiar with the same songs, movies, jokes, books and life in general They basically have the same roots In the case of a western man and foreign woman family everything is more complicated and requires much more patience and understanding from both spouses
On one hand each of the partners has an opportunity to learn a great deal about the other's country, culture, traditions and life styles which can be very interesting On the other hand it can be very disappointing if there is the inability to understand your partner's excitements and frustrations For example, you are watching the television and suddenly you see a famous actor or singer, or other type of an artist whose name you have grown up with Maybe this artist was an idol for your parents and the music of this artist was often played in your house when you were a child Unfortunately you realize that your wife is unable to understand your feelings because she has no idea who this artist is Her eyes are absolutely empty because she has never even heard the song before You feel rather disappointed! Remember that your wife has the same situation with you You do not know her country's songs, her country's famous actors, her books She has her own memories and in actuality, for her, everything is much more difficult than it is for you At least, you live in your own country where everybody can understand you She lives in completely strange surroundings, where she has nobody to share her feelings with, except you
Do some research and learn about your wife's country, culture and lifestyles Talk with her, ask her questions, get to know what songs she likes, what movies and books are of interest to her The Internet will give you a great opportunity to find anything! Tell her about your country's culture, let her listen to the music that you like, rent a movie for her that left you with great impression Let her understand you better through the things that you like Patience and time will help you
to fight cultural differences
1 A spouse should
a let the partner to do everything alone b be not only a lover but also a friend
c not share the feelings with the partner d not interfere with what the partner's likes and dislikes
2 According to the passage,
a Spouses who have the same nationality need more patience and understanding in their marriage than those who are from different cultures
b Spouses who are from different cultures need more patience and understanding in their marriage than those who have the same roots
c Spouses who have the same roots go not share anything together
d Spouses who are from different cultures can never share anything together
3 If there is the inability to understand a spouse's excitements and frustrations the marriage, he or she may feel
