昨天下课后，我和朋友在一起讨论去哪儿吃晚饭。我提到了我们学校附近的一家很舒适的小餐馆，绝大多数朋友都同意我的提议。我们的新朋友拉杰也笑了，但他同时又摇了摇头。我们又问他；“你喜欢那家餐馆吗？”拉杰笑了笑，又摇了摇头。最终，我们有点生气了，问他到底想去哪儿。拉杰说他很喜欢我们的主意。“但你为什么摇头呢？”我问道。“在印度，摇头是同意的意思。” 拉杰笑着说。 shaking the head是动名词短语，在该句中作主语。 5 Discuss and fill. 讨论以下身势语在不同文化中的 Reading and Writing 含义，并填表。 1.

Reading and Writing 参考译文 6 Read and learn. 读下文，了解中西方不同的文化现象。 Chinese people tend to avoid “4” because it sounds like the word “death”, while Westerners do not like “13”, considering it unlucky. In China, “6” is a lucky number. However, in some Western cultures, it is simply a number. 中国人尽量避免“4”这个数字，因为它读起来像“死”这个字。与此同时，西方人不喜欢“13”这个数字，认为它不吉利。在中国，“6”是个幸运数字。然而，在一些西方文化中，它仅仅是个数字。 Reading and Writing 参考译文 In some Western countries, people try to avoid a black cat. If they see a black cat walking in front of them, they think it will bring them bad luck. However, in China, a black cat just means it is black, one of the colours. 在一些西方国家，人们试图避免见到黑色的猫。假如他们见到有只黑猫从自己面前走过，他们会认为它会给自己带来厄运。然而，在中国，黑色的猫仅仅说明它是黑色的，不过是颜色的一种罢了。 Reading and Writing 参考译文 In Western countries, white symbolises pure, clean and honest qualities. When Westerners hold weddings, the bride usually wears a white dress. In China, however, red is usually connected with such joyful occasions as festivals and weddings. But, nowadays, many Chinese brides also wear white dresses on their weddings for a change. 在西方国家，白色象征纯洁，干净和诚实的品质。西方人举办婚礼时，新娘通常会穿白色的礼服。然而在中国，红色通常和诸如节日和婚礼这些喜庆的场合联系在一起。但如今，很多中国新娘也在她们的婚礼上穿白色婚纱来改变一下（传统的婚纱颜色）。 7 Think and discuss. 思考并讨论中西方文化还有 Reading and Writing 哪些不同。 1.
