As soon as we got out of the airport, I started to complain about the hot weather. Quite suddenly, my boyfriend stopped me. “It is not acceptable to show your emotion like that,” he whispered. “You should try to smile.” I thought he was joking at first, but I soon realized he wasn't. In Thailand, people go out of their way to put on a happy face for reasons I didn't yet know.‎ Ever since the trip, I have been trying to learn about how people express emotions in different cultures. What I have learned is that negativity(消极性) is likely to be taboo(禁忌) in Thailand. The happiness of the group is more important than one person's feelings. For that reason, my public complaints were very impolite.‎ It's not just complaining which is taboo. In Thailand, people who publicly express anger are seen as impolite, too. In Europe or the USA, it is quite common for friends and partners to get angry with each other and then make up the next day. In Thailand, losing your cool is surely of no use.‎ This is not to say that you can't express negative emotions in Thailand. There are different ways that you can smile: there's the “I don't trust you” smile, the “that's a silly suggestion” smile, the smile of real warmth, and many other besides. I clearly remember the “please don't ever do that again” smile from my boyfriend's mother when I rested my feet on a chair. In Thailand, showing the bottom of your feet is very rude.‎ Emotions give further clues(线索,提示) to the differences. In the USA and Europe, people are likely to use the mouth to show an emotion, for example, [:)] means happy and [:(] means sad, while in Asia, and carry these meanings, showing that the emotion expressed by the eyes is much more important.‎ Personally speaking, I think of myself as quite an emotional person. I always get upset, angry or laugh loudly which might seem rude in Thailand. However, what seems overly emotional to one person can seem reserved(保守的) to another. So what's the truth? Is there a right way to behave, whichever culture you come from? Let me know your thoughts and experiences.‎ ‎1.Which of the following is considered to be taboo in Thailand? (　　)‎ A. Expressing angry feelings at home.‎ B.Making up with friends.‎ C.Playing jokes on others.‎ 5‎ D.Complaining in public.‎ ‎2.When the writer rested her feet on a chair, why did her boyfriend's mother smile at her? (　　)‎ A. Because the mother was very happy. ‎ B.Because the mother liked the writer very much.‎ C.Because the meaning of the smile was “please don't do that again”. ‎ D.Because showing the bottom of the feet is polite.‎ ‎3.What do people use to show an emotion in Europe? (　　)‎ A. The face. B.Feet.‎ C.The mouth. D.Eyes.‎ ‎4.What could be the best title? (　　)‎ A. Use Smiles to Show Your Emotions B.Express Emotions across the World C.Different Kinds of Taboo in Thailand D.Different Cultures in Europe and Asia Ⅲ.词语运用 第一节　用括号中所给单词的适当形式完成句子(每空仅限1个单词)。‎ ‎1.It is rather important for young guys to live a difficult but 　　　　life.(worth) ‎ ‎2.It has been arranged that you should teach 　　　　this term.
