Passage 1
Mexico lies on the south of the USA. It is the 14th largest country in the world and 4th largest in North America. Let’s learn something about Mexico.
In Mexico, men greet each other with a handshake. However, only people knowing each other well give a traditional hug (拥抱). Women don’t shake hands. Instead, they pat each other on shoulders. In Mexico, people take flowers with them when going to a friend’s house.
People in the USA usually talk in a direct(直接的) manner. However, Mexicans are polite and find it hard to speak their mind, especially if the speech can hurt someone. Mexicans think that speaking loudly is impolite.
The use of words like ―thank you‖ and ―please‖ should be helpful when you talk with Mexicans. They will be happy to help you if you speak with politeness.
People have forgotten many interesting Mexican traditions, such as Siesta. Siesta is one such tradition which lost in today’s fast-paced urban life of Mexico. Closing shops for few hours in the afternoon to take a rest means Siesta. People in villages follow this tradition even today. Many different cultures have influenced(影响) life styles of Mexicans. However, the Mexican culture has kept special through tradition and customs(风俗) above. ( ) 31. How do women in Mexico greet each other?.
A. By shaking hands. B. By saying hello.
C. By giving a traditional hug D. By patting each other on shoulders. ( ) 32. Which is polite in Mexico according to the passage? A. Talking in a direct manner.
B. Speaking loudly in public.
C. Writing a letter to your friend before visiting. D. Taking flowers with them when visiting a friend. ( ) 33. What does the underlined word ―Siesta‖ mean?
A. 午休 B. 关店 C. 假日 D. 下午茶 ( ) 34. Who still follows the Siesta tradition in Mexico today?
A. Old people. B. People in villages. C. All the Mexicans. D. People in cities. ( ) 35. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Mexican Special Cultures B. Life Styles of Mexicans C. Mexican Customs and traditions D. Fast-paced Life of Mexico Passage 2
