四、閱讀測驗【請在下列各題中選出最適當的答案】 Eating habits are influenced by environment, such as the climate and the availability of water and of plants or animals to serve as food. It is also influenced by the customs of eating passed down from generation to generation. The nomadic Arabs eat what they can transport and find in the desert. Fruits from oases, camel’s milk, goat’s cheese, rice, and a bit of meat may constitute the only meal of the day. These nomads sit close together and eat with their fingers, partaking from a common bowl. The Arabian nomads have a longstanding tradition of democracy and hospitality. For example, rich and poor eat similar food, and visitors are always offered coffee and invited to share the “common” meal. Another group of people who eat with their hands are the people of India. They are trained to use only the tips of the fingers of the right hand to touch food. It is a major social disgrace to eat with one’s left hand, or even to pick up one’s drink glass with the left hand, since the left hand is reserved for wiping one’s backside after using the restroom. Banana leaves are the only utensils required. These leaves are laid out on the floor in an area typically reserved for eating. In India people wash their hands and mouths before and after eating. As the economic situation changes in India, eating habits may change also. In many industrialized parts of India people now eat with forks and knives. In Mexican villages and in other rural areas in Latin America, the tortilla is used as an eating utensil in place of the fork or spoon. This custom is disappearing in urban areas. The tradition lives on in modern restaurants, especially in tourist areas of Mexico, where dining enthusiasts are offered large bowls of scoop shaped tortillas, which are fried to a crisp shape for dipping. Eating habits vary widely. Like other customs, they arise out of the environment where they are practiced. There is a close relation between eating habits and ways of living. When these ways change, many eating habits also change.

飲食習慣會受環境所影響,如氣候、水源和食用性植物或動物的可用能力。它也受到代代相傳的飲食的習俗影響。游牧的阿拉伯人食用可在沙漠中運輸及發現的食物。來自綠洲的水果、駱駝奶、山羊(奶)製的起司、米、及些許的肉類,組成一天唯一的一餐。這些牧民緊坐在一起,然後用他們的手指、共享公碗裡的食物。這群阿拉伯遊牧民族有個存在已久的民主又好客的傳統。例如,富有和貧窮(的人)吃的是類似的食物,訪客總是(被)提供咖啡並受邀一起分享”一般的”餐點。另一個用手吃飯的族群是印度人。他們被訓練只能用右手的指尖觸碰食物。用左手進食,或甚至用左手拿起杯子,都是嚴重的社會恥辱,因為左手是用來如廁後擦...
