     A taboo is a social action that is not allowed. Every culture in the world has its own taboos. The breaking
of a taboo sometimes makes people feel uncomfortable. I learned this through my own experience.
     Last weekend, Wang Lin and I showed two foreigners around our city. Mr. Singh was from India and
Mr. White from the USA. When I held out my left hand to shake hands with him, Mr. Singh seemed to be
unhappy. Mr. White, however, was quite casual (隨意的). He said hello to me with a big smile and a wave
of his hand.
     In the evening, we stopped at a restaurant for dinner. I noticed that Mr. Singh didn't touch the beef and
Mr. White seemed not to like chickens' claws(爪子). During the meal, Wang Lin said sorry to Mr. Singh and
continued to explain that we didn't know it was a taboo in India to shake one's left hand. Mr. Singh explained
that since oxen (牛) are sacred (神圣的) in India, people don't eat beef there. Mr. White joined in and said that
it was not usual in the States for people to eat chickens' claws. He went on to say that Americans don't usually
get into each other's personal space. Isn't it a good lesson to remember?
1. unhappy/uncomfortable
2. beef
3. rude/impolite/a taboo
4. don't never/seldom/don't usually
5. learn about/know/remember/pay attention to

    Zidane was born in Marseilles in the south of France in 1972. His parents were Algerian (阿爾及利亞人)
and had moved to France in the 1950s. In 1989 at the age of 17 he joined Cannes football club. After three
years he moved to Bordeaux in 1992 and was voted (被選為) "Young Player of the Year". In the same year
he played in his first international match for France against the Czech Republic (捷克共和國). ①He
rescued (解救) the French team from disaster by scoring two goals near the end of the match. The final
(決賽) score was 2: 2.
    In 1996 he moved to Italy to join Turin's team Juventus. He has played in three European Cup finals, twice
for Juventus and once for Bordeaux. However, ②he was not in any of the winning teams and did not play at
his best in the three finals. Reporters describe him as one of the best midfield players (中鋒) in the world. He
can turn fast, he can run past the opposing team. ③He can kick a ball onto just the right place for a team
member to score. In his 33 games for France before the World Cup, he scored 10 goals.
    Zidane is the hero of North African people who are living in France. These people have not had an easy
life in the past. They are among the poorest of the country and find it hard to get jobs.
    But the French team has at last shown the public that French people come from all over the world. Out
of the 11 players, four were born outside mainland France. Six other were born in France to non-French
parents."France's win and ④Zidane's playing has brought all French people together," said one reporter.
    In the World Cup in 1998, Zidane played well against Saudi Arabia, but was sent off the pitch by the
referee (裁判). (He stood on a Saudi Arabian player who had fallen over.) In the semi-final against Croatia,
⑤he was still not at his best. When the day of the match came, France's fans were rewarded. Zidane
scored two out of France's three goals and was voted European Football of the Year. The President (總統(tǒng))
of France said on TV, "We're happy and that's the least I can say. It's the best day of my life."
