The English and the Continentals

  In England everything is the other way round.On Sundays on the Continent even the poorest person puts on his best suit, tries to look respectable, and at the same time the life of the country becomes gay and cheerful; in England even the richest lord(勋爵)or motor-manufacturer dresses in some peculiar(特别的, 罕见的)rags, does not shave, and the country becomes dull and sad.On the Continent there is one subject which should be avoided-the weather; in England, if you do not repeat the phrase “lovely day, isn’t it?” at least two hundred times a day, you are considered a bit dull.On the Continent people use a fork as though a fork were a shovel(铲子); in England they turn it upside down and push everything-including peas-on top of it.

  On the Continent almost every nation whether little or great has openly declared at one time or another that it is superior to all other nations; the English fight heroic wars to combat these dangerous ideas without ever mentioning which is really the most superior race in the world.Continental people are sensitive and touchy(易生气的); the English take everything with a sense of humor-they are only offended if you tell them that they have no sense of humor.On the Continent the population consists of a small percentage of criminals, a small percentage of honest people and the rest are a vague transition(过渡, 转变)between the two; in England you find a small percentage of criminals and the rest are honest people.On the other hand, people on the Continent either tell you the truth or lie; in England they hardly ever lie, but they would not dream of telling you the truth.

  Many continentals think life is a game; the English think cricket is a game.

Neatness and personal cleanness have been around for ages and have become an important part of everyone’s daily routine. You might think that all modern societies would have the same neatness and personal cleanness practices. After all, doesn’t everybody take baths? Most people do recognize the need for cleanness, which is the basis for health. Neatness practices include all the little things people do to make themselves look their best, such as combing their hair and putting on makeup. However, while most modern people agree that these things are important, people in different cultures take care of themselves in different ways.

There used to be an old joke in America that people should take a bath once a week, whether they need one or not. In fact, though, Americans generally take a bath or more commonly, a shower every day. But in contrast to some cultures, most Americans get their shower in the morning so that they can start the day fresh. Americans are known for having very sensitive noses. In America, body smell is socially unacceptable. For that reason, Americans consider it a must to use special lotion (浴液) to prevent the smell. Ladies often add a touch of perfume. Men may spray on after – shave cream or manly – smelling perfume.

Some of the cultural varieties in neatness practices result from physical differences between races. Whereas many Asian men have little facial hair, Westerners have a lot. As a result, most American men spend some time each day shaving or tidying their facial hair to keep it nice. American women, on the other hand, generally prefer not to be hairy at all.

  Americans put great value on both neatness and personal cleanness. For some people, taking care of themselves has become almost a religion. As the old saying goes, “Cleanness is next to godliness.” Whether or not being clean and neat – looking brings one closer to God, it certainly at least brings one closer to others. Americans look down on people who don’t take care of themselves, or who let themselves go.”

68.We can infer from the first paragraph that          .

A.everyone takes baths daily to get a nice look.

B.people have the same neatness practices today.

C.neatness practices may be affected by cultures.

D.neatness means combing hair and doing makeup.

69.Americans have a bath in the morning to          .

A.begin an energetic day                                  B.refresh their sensitive noses

C.prevent their body smell                               D.style their hair at home

70.According to the author, physical differences between races can cause differences in       .

A.cultures                   B.locations                  C.religions                   D.neatness practice

71.The underlined phrase in the last paragraph means “       ”.

A.care much about themselves                      B.give loose to themselves

C.stay away from other people                       D.stay closer to other people
