Exercise 9. Read the following passage and mark the
letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
INTERNATIONAL GIFT-GIVING CUSTOMS
The tradition of gift giving is a worldwide
practice that is said to have been around since the beginning of human beings.
Over time, different cultures have developed their own gift giving customs and
traditions.
In France, the gift of wine for the hostess of
a dinner party is not an appropriate gift as the hostess would prefer to choose the
vintage for the night. In Sweden, a bottle of wine or flowers are an
appropriate gift for the hostess. In Viet Nam, a gift of whisky is appropriate
for the host, and some fruit or small gifts for the hostess, children or elders
of the home. Besides, gifts should never be wrapped in black paper because this
color is unlucky and associated with
funerals in this country. Gifts that symbolize cutting such as scissors, knives
and other sharp objects should be avoided because they mean the cutting of the
relationship. Also, in some countries you should not open the gift in front of
the giver and in others it would be an insult if you did not open the gift.
Beyond the gift itself, give careful
consideration to the manner in which it
is presented.
Different cultures have different customs regarding how a gift should be offered
- using only your right hand or using both hands, for example. Others have
strong traditions related to the appropriate way to accept a gift. In
Singapore, for instance, it is the standard to graciously refuse a gift several
times before finally accepting it. The recipient would never unwrap a gift in
front of the giver for fear of appearing greedy.
Understanding these traditions and customs, as
well as taking time to choose an
appropriate gift, will help you to avoid any awkwardness
or embarrassment as you seek to
build a better cross-cultural relationship.
106. When did the tradition of gift-giving become popular all over
the world?
A. a long time ago B. thousands of years ago
C. since the beginning of humans D. since the beginning of industrialization

A. In France, wine is not
considered a suitable gift for the hostess of a dinner party.
B. In Sweden, it is not customary
to bring some wine or flowers when you are invited to a dinner party.
C . In Viet Nam,
such things as scissors, knives and other sharp objects shouldn't be used as a
gift.
D. In Singapore, it
is unacceptable to open the gift right in front of the giver.

Exercise 10. Read the following passage and mark the
letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Marriage is an ancient religious and legal practice celebrated around the
world. However, wedding customs vary from country to country.
The Wedding Dress: In many countries, it is
customary for the bride to wear a white dress as a symbol of purity. The tradition of wearing a
special white dress only for the wedding ceremony started around 150 years ago. Before
that, most women could not afford to buy a dress that they would only wear once. Now, bridal
dresses can be bought in a variety of styles. In some Asian countries and in the Middle
East, colors of joy and happiness like red or
orange other than white are worn by the bride or used as
part of the wedding ceremony,
The Wedding Rings: In many cultures,
couples exchange rings, usually made of golf or silver and worn on the third finger of the left or right
hand, during the marriage ceremony. The circular shape of the ring is symbolic
of the couple's eternal union. In Brazil, it is traditional to have the rings engraved with the bride's name on the groom’s ring, an vice versa.
Flowers: Flowers play an important role in most weddings. Roses are said to be the flowers of
love, and because they usually bloom in June, this has become the most popular month for weddings in many countries. After the wedding ceremony, in many
countries the bride throws her bouquet into a crowd of well-wishers – usually her single female
friends. The person who catches this bouquet will be the next one to marry.
Gifts: In Chinese cultures, w edding guests give gifts of money to the
newly-weds in small
red envelopes. Money is also an appropriate gift at Korean and Japanese wedding. In many Western countries,
for example in the U.K, wedding guests give the bride and groom household items that they may need for their new home. In
Russia, rather than receiving gifts, the bride and groom provide gifts to their guests
instead.
With the continued internationalization of the
modern world, wedding customs that originated in one part of the world are
crossing national boundaries and have been incorporated into marriage
ceremonies in other countries.
