"See that? Men kissing, "our lawyer friend snorted into his beer...
It had taken me some months to get used【C1】______the Provencal delight in physical contact. Like anyone brought up in England, I had absorbed certain social mannerisms. I had learned to keep my distance, to offer a nod instead of a handshake, to ration kissing to female relatives and to confine any public demonstrations of affection on dogs. The Provencal welcome, as thorough as being searched by airport security guards, was, at first, a【C2】______(startle)experience. Now I enjoyed it, and I was fascinated by the niceties of the social ritual, and the sign language which is an essential part of any Provencal encounter.
When two unencumbered men meet, the【C3】______(little)there will be is the conventional handshake. If the hands are full, you’ll be offered a little finger to shake. If the hands are wet or dirty, you will be offered a forearm or an elbow. Riding a bicycle or【C4】dri______a car does not excuse you from physical contact, and so you will see perilous contortions【C5】be______ performed on busy streets as hands grope through car windows and across handlebars to find each other. And this is only at the first and most restrained level of acquaintance. A closer relationship requires more demonstrative acknowledgement.
【C6】______ our lawyer friend had noticed, men kiss other men. They squeeze shoulders, slap backs, pummel kidneys, pinch cheeks. When a Provencal man is truly pleased to see you, there is a real possibility of coming away from his clutches with superficial bruising. The risk of bodily damage is less where women are concerned, but an amateur can easily make a social blunder if he【C7】______(calculate)the required number of kisses. In my early days of discovery, I would plant a single kiss,【C8】______to find that the other cheek was being proffered as I was drawing back. Only snobs kiss once, I was told, or those unfortunates who suffer from congenital froideur(冷漠). I then saw what I assumed to be the correct procedure—the triple kiss, left-right-left, so I tried it on a Parisian friend. 【C9】Wr______again. She told me that triple-kissing was a low Provencal habit, and that two kisses were enough among【C10】______(civilize)people. The next time I saw my neighbour’s wife, I kissed her twice, "Non" , she said, "trois"(三次). [br] 【C3】
