• In the United States, men and women shake hands when they meet. Greetings are often casual such as a handshake, a smile and a “hello.” The British say

  “hello” when they meet friends. They usually shake hands when they meet for the first time. Social kissing or a kiss on the cheek is common between men and women and between women who know each other very well. The Hebrew greeting is “shalom.” The French greeting is “bonjour.” The Spanish greeting in “hola” and the Zulu say “sawubona” when greeting friends. In New Zealand people are often greeted by the Maori leaders with the traditional “Hongi” by rubbing noses. When a younger person says hello to an older person in the Philippines, the younger person will bow and hold the right hand of the older person and press the knuckles against their forehead. When the knuckles are touching the forehead they say “Mano”(means hand) and “Po”(means respect.) In Japan the common greeting for men and women is to bow when they meet someone. The deeper the bow, the greater level of respect in shown. In Arab countries, close male friends or colleagues hug and kiss both cheeks. They shake hands with the right hand only, longer but less firmly than in the western world. Contact and hand shaking between men and women in public is considered rude. Hungarians use the friendly greeting of kissing each other on the cheeks. The most common way to kiss is from your right to your left. When men meet for the first time they give a firm handshake. In Belgium people kiss on one cheek when they meet. The Chinese when meeting someone for the first time usually nod their head and smile or shake hands if in a formal business situation. In Russia a typical greeting is a very firm handshake while maintaining direct eye contact. When men shake hands with women, the handshake is less intense. Men may also kiss a woman three times on alternating cheeks. In Albania, men shake hands when greeting one another. Depending on how well the men know each other, a kiss on each cheek may be common as well. When a man meets a female relative, a kiss on each cheek or two kisses per cheek is common. With friends or colleagues normally a light handshake is appropriate. Women may shake hands or kiss each other on both cheeks. In Armenia, a woman needs to wait for the man to offer his hand for the handshake. Between good friends and family members, a kiss on the cheek and a light hug are also common. Always remember you are a guest in another country. Please show respect for their customs and culture. Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) according to the passage 1.In Britain, they usually kiss on the cheek between men and women when they first meet. 2.The Spanish greeting is “hola” and the Zulu say “sawubona” when greeting friends. 3.The common greeting for men and women is to bow to each other in both Philippines and Japan. 4.In Russia, a typical greeting is a very firm handshake without direct eye contact. 5.In Armenia, a woman needs to wait for the man to offer his hand for the handshake

• Rugby has the reputation of being the roughest sports in the world. Outside the British Isles, rugby is little known and, in fact, is often confused with soccer. But in England, as old sports saying serves to point out the differences between the two games: soccer is supposedly a gentlemen's game played by ruffians, whereas rugby is a ruffian's game played by gentlemen.

  The game begins with a kick-off from one end of a 100-yard field. The receiving ruggers, as a rugby team is called, attempt to move the ball down the field, the opposing team attempts to stop the man with the ball. The rules are quite simple. You cannot tackle anyone but the man who is carrying the ball, and once the ball carrier is tackled, he must give up the ball. Obviously, a good strategy for moving the ball. downfield is to carry it as far as possible, then pass the ball before being tackled. If the ball carder can travel the length of the field, his team is awarded four points, and another two points are won by kicking the ball over the goalpost after the score. Penalties are equally simple, tackling a player who is not carrying the ball carries a ten-yard penalty. Much of rugby's reputation for roughness stems from the fact that the players wear no pads. To Americans accustomed to seeing professional foot-ball players in suits and helmets like armor, a rugby player's uniform. seems suicidally simple. Most ruggers wear a very thick jersey, heavy gymnasium shorts, heavy socks, rugby shoes, and a mouthpiece. Ruggers use other equipment or pads only when an injury requires protection. But even with this minimal equipment, the game is apparently not as brutal as it might seem. The players are quite satisfied with the lack of padding and helmets and actually think the game might be too rough if players used more equipment. "Human nature is not to hit as hard if no one is wearing pads," one rugger explains. Rugby games are played in two halves, each lasting forty minutes. Teams always meet to play two games consecutively, back-to-back. Again, playing a demanding physical sport like rugby for more than 160 minutes seems like an impossible task, but the ruggers love this idea. "It gives everyone on the team a chance to get into the game," they say. Rugby is slowly catching on in America. The sport is gaining an enthusiastic following among college teams and in independent ruggy "unions" organized on the British model. It has all the appeal of football, but it is simpler and requires much less costly equipment. Rugby is ready to be rediscovered. The main purpose of this passage is to ______. A．compare English and American sports B．compare rugby to football C．discuss the brutality of rugby D．provide a brief introduction to rugby
