【題目】One of the main points of traveling is to relax and take a break from your normal daily life. But the truth is, we’re not always free to do what we like when traveling to a foreign country, and a US tourist learned that the hard way.

On Aug 12, the unnamed 41 -year-old man was beaten by a passerby after he was seen giving Nazi salutes (納粹禮) again and again on a street in Dresden, Germany. Ever since the end of World War , Germany has strict laws forbidding the Nazi salute, as well as other symbols of Nazism.

In fact, most countries have their own taboos (禁忌).If you plan to travel overseas, it’s best to get familiar with these taboos before you start touring local sites. Here are some examples.

Singapore

You can get fined for a lot of things in Singapore, including feeding birds, spitting (吐痰), smoking in public, not flushing () a public toilet after you use it, and eating or drinking on buses or trains.

Japan

You’re not supposed to wear your shoes in someone’s house, but you’re not supposed to take your shoes off outside the house either. Instead, there’s a small area inside the door called a “genkan” which is where your shoes should go. If you’re still not sure where that is, pay attention to what other people do and do the same.

France

French people don’t like it when you talk about money. It’s OK if you say that you want to quit a job because you aren’t paid enough money, but you should never say the exact amount. Money is considered to be a “dirty” topic in France.

1Why was the US tourist was beaten in Germany?

A. He was beaten by mistake. B. He was not welcome in Germany.

C. He acted improperly in Germany. D. He quarraled with a local person.

2Which statement is true according to the passage?

A. Eating or drinking on buses is acceptable in Singapore.

B. You should take your shoes off outside the house in a Japanese house.

C. You should keep your shoes on in a Japanese house.

What Is Emotional Eating?
Emotional eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings instead of satisfying hunger.Have you ever finished a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downed cookie after cookie while preparing for a big test? But when done a lot — especially without realizing it — emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overallwell-being.
Not many of us make the connection between eating and ourfeelings.
One of the biggest myths about emotionaleating is that it’s caused by negative feelings.Yes, peopleoften turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored.But emotionaleating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharingdessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.Sometimesemotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce.
Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is givencandy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a jobwell done. It’s not easy to “unlearn” patterns ofemotional eating.But it ispossible.And it startswith an awareness of what’s going on.
We’re all emotional eaters to a degree.But for somepeople emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain orother problems.The troublewith emotional eating is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelingsthat cause it remain. That’s why it helps to know the differencebetween physical hunger and emotional hunger.
Next time you reach for a snack, wait and think about which typeof hunger is driving it.
A.Believe it ornot, we’ve all been there.
B.If a cryingboy gets some cookies, he may link cookies with comfort.
C.One studyfound that people who eat food like pizza become happy afterwards.
D.And you oftenmay feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you like.
E.Understandingwhat drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it.
F.Boys seem toprefer hot, homemade comfort meals, while girls go for chocolate and ice cream.
G.More often,though, it’s the countless little daily stresses that cause someone to seekcomfort in food.
