V. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.

Sometimes people add to what they say even when they dont talk. Gestures are the silent language of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may misunderstand. In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the others arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug. Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say Pardon me or Excuse me. Americans like to look the other person in the eyes when they are talking. If you dont do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite. For Americans, thumbs-up means yes, very good and well-done. Thumbs- down means the opposite. To call the waiter, raise one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement of your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger. Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head whey they admire them. Learning a cultures body language is sometimes confusing. If you dont know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile. 1. If you are introduced to a stranger from the USA, you should.. A. greet him with a hug B. place a hand on his shoulder C. shake his hand weakly D. shake his hand firmly 2. American people often A. show their friendship by touching each other B. face each other directly when they are talking C. say Pardon me. to each other when they are talking D. get uncomfortable whey you stand or sit too close to them 3. When your friend gives you a thumbs-up, he, in fact, A. shows his rudeness to you B. shows his anger to you C. expresses his satisfaction to you D. expresses his worries about you 4. Which of the following is NOT true about the culture of the United States? A. Its impolite to look the other person in the eyes while talking. B. Its rude to look at the other person for a long time. C. Pointing at someone is usually considered rude. D. Its all right to raise your hand slightly when you want to attract the waiters attention.
