第二篇:
        For decades anthropologists have been studying strange and unusual cultures all over the world. One of the strangest peoples of all is a group called the Nacirema, a legendary tribe living in North America.
        The territory of the Nacirema is located between the Canadian Cree and the Tarahumare of Mexico. Relatively little is known of the origin of this people, though they are said to have come from somewhere east. In fact, the Nacirema may be related to certain European peoples.
        Nacirema people spend a lot of time on the appearance and health of their bodies. In Nacirema culture the body is generally believed to be ugly and likely to decay. The only way this decay can be prevented is through participation in certain magical ceremonies. In every Nacirema house there is a special shrine room dedicated to this purpose. Some Nacirema houses have more than one shrine room. In Nacirema culture, it is believed that the more shrine rooms a family has, the richer it is.
         What is the shrine room? The focal point is a box built into the wall. Inside the box is a large collection of magical potions, medicines, and creams. Below the box is a small font from which water is obtained. Every day each member of the Nacirema family enters, and receives magic, holy water from the fountain.
          In Nacirema culture, the mouth is considered one of the most important parts of the body. The Nacirema are fascinated by the mouth and believe that its condition has an important and supernatural effect on all social relationships. Naciremans visit “holy-mouth-people” once or twice a year. If there are any holes in the teeth, a supernatural substance is placed in each hole. It is said that the purpose of this practice is to prevent decay in the teeth and to help the Naciremans to make friends and find spouses.
