But man has nothing but a thin skin.If someone were to ask you, “Why did human beings start to cover their
28、 bodies with clothes?” most would answer, “To keep themselves warm, of course.”It is only when we begin to think about it a little that we realize that clothes are worn for a great many reasons that have nothing to do with our need for warmth at all.For example, we wear clothes to some degree in ord
29、er to decorate ourselves to make ourselves, if possible, look more dignified(尊严的) or nicer.Clothes of a special kind are often worn to show that the wearer has authority or power. The individual wearing them is treated with respect because he occupies a certain office. The judge on the Bench, for ex
30、ample, might look a very ordinary and unimpressive figure without his wig and gown. Clothes are an important part of ceremony, whether it is connected with belief, the law, parliament and royalty, the fighting forces or the state. How very different the Queens Coronation ceremony(加冕仪式) would have lo
31、oked without the robes, coronets and the cloth of gold.Sometimes, even in some modern countries people wear some article of clothing, or some jewel, because they believe that it will bring them luck or protect them from evil or illness, or because it is connected with their beliefs.None of these rea
32、sons for wearing clothes to decorate ourselves, to show our position in the world for ceremonial purposes for “luck”, to give ourselves dignity and authority have anything to do with our need for warmth.56.

The authors purpose in writing this article is to tell us that clothes are worn _.A. for ceremonial occasionsB. for many other reasons besides warmthC. to keep people impres
35、sive and nicerD. to show peoples authority or powerBEvery Chinese-language textbook starts with the standard phrases for greeting people, but as an American, I always found myself unable to speak freely when it came to seeing guests off at the door. Just a goodbye would not do, yet that was all I ha
36、d ever learned from the terrible books. So I would smile and nod, bowing like a Japanese and searching madly for words that would smooth over the visitors leaving and make them feel they would be welcome to come again. In my unease, I often hid behind the skirts of my Chinese husbands kindness.Then
37、finally, listening to others, I began to pick up the phrases that eased relationships and sent people off not only successfully but also skillfully.Partings for the Chinese include a lot of necessary habitual practice. Although Im not expected to observe or even know all the rules, as a foreigner, I
38、ve had to learn the expressions of politeness and protest (表示拒绝的话) at a leaving-taking.The Chinese feel they must see a guest off to the farthest possible point down the flight of stairs to the street below or perhaps all the way to the nearest bus stop. Ive sometimes waited half an hour or more for
39、 my husband to return from seeing a guest off, since hes gone to the bus stop and waited for the next bus to arrive.Thats very well, but when Im the guest being seen off, my protests are always useless. My hostess or host, or both, insists on seeing me down the stairs and well on my way, with my rep
40、eating the “Dont bother (give the trouble) to see me off” at every landing. If I try to go fast to discourage them from following, they are simply out to the discomfort of having to run after me. Better to accept the inevitable (不可避免的).Besides, thats going against Chinese custom, because haste (doin
41、g things quickly) is to be avoided. What do you say when you part from someone? “Go slowly.” Not “farewell” or “Godspeed ”(祝福), but “Go slowly.” To the Chinese it means “Take care,” or “Watch your step”, or some such caution, but translated literally (字面意思) it means “Go slowly.”60. It is stated clea

44、inC. running after the guestsD. saying “Go slowly”63. The Chinese use “Go slowly.” in their partings so as to _.A. slow down the guestsB. ask the guests to take careC. wish the guests a happy journeyD. warn the guests of danger on their way homeCI remember that when I was in my teens, I used to rebe
45、l at many of the Dos and Donts my parents taught me. For example, when I kept playing jazz records on the record player, my father would condemn(谴责) such music as making noise and replace them with disks of classical music that I always considered extremely dull. My mom and dad were also very partic
46、ular about the friends I went out with, always quoting the saying “One rotten apple could ruin a whole barrel of apples.” When I insisted on sleeping with my pet dog Peppy, they immediately said NO because they thought that I would be bitten by fleas(虱子). These are just a few examples of many of the things
