Part III Reading Comprehension Passage One

Question 33 to 37are based on the following passage.

The French shake hands with everyone (family, children, strangers), at home, on the way to work, at work, on the way home from work, etc. thus, in an office that employs perhaps a dozen people, no work will be done for the first half hour, while those who have not met since the day before remind each other who they are.

However, it is important to remember with whom one has shaken hands on any one day. The French regard it as extremely bad manners to shake hands twice, as though one had not taken adequate notice the first time.

It is still the custom to say ¡°Bonjour (how do you do )¡± and ¡° Au revoir (goodbye)¡± to one and all when entering or leaving a shop or bar. This is not because the French are excessively polite. It is because they seek acknowledging the existence of others as a way of avoiding being rude. For the French manners means civilization. Without rigid formalities(ÑϸñµÄÀñ½Ú), the primitive in them would assuredly assert itself (±í¶).

Kissing is not so much of a feature of French life as others supposed. But when it does take place, it must be done properly, according to the rules. The correct order is left cheek, right cheek, left cheek --- very formal, very stylized (³Ìʽ»¯µÄ). In Paris four kisses are sometimes permitted: left, right, left right.

33. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that before doing his daily work in an office, a French employee will spend some time ________. A) getting to know who has come B) shaking hands with everyone else

C) reminding other employees of his punctual presence D) telling other employees what happened the day before

34. The French custom require that, if you have shaken hands with someone, on that day you should ________ .

A) take notice of his appearance C) behave well before him
