Ernest Hemingway（歐內(nèi)斯特?海明威）（1899-1961），a famous American writer，seemed to live to write，and to express himself. （1）He is considered as one of the most important and well-known writers of the 20th century. Born on July 21st，1899 in Chicago，Hemingway was in a nice family—his father was a doctor，and mother a musician.Hemingway became a reporter after graduating from high school.When the first world war broke out，he went to Italy and worked for the Red Cross as an ambulance driver.He was seriously wounded in the war and got the Italian Silver Medal of Bravery when he was only 18 years old.
    In 1919 Hemingway returned to the United States and began creating some of the finest American Literature ever written. "（2） The world is a fine place and worth fighting for. And I hate very much to leave it." This quote（引語） is an excellent representation（代表） of the way Hemingway lived his life.From his time as a soldier and war reporter to his adventures in Paris and Cuba，Hemingway saw much of the world and used his experience to form his writing style.Even after more than 120 years，（3）他的作品繼續(xù)影響著當(dāng)今的作者和讀者。
    Hemingway's writing style is minimal（極簡的）.He invented the term "iceberg theory（冰山理論）" to describe his writing.It means hiding deeper meaning under the surface of one's writing can make it more impressive，just like how most of an iceberg's mass is hidden under the surface of the ocean.
    For example，（4）it is said that Hemingway was once asked to write a complete  story in 10 words. He replied with， "For sale：baby shoes，never worn." In this one simple sentence，he tells a sad story of losing a child.（5）它是海明威寫作風(fēng)格的一個(gè)完美的例子。

1．The speed and convenience （便利） of modern travel makes the faraway countries be reached quickly and easily now.Even though they now seem closer，they may still be different from your home country.So it is important to change your behavior so that you don't insult or offend （冒犯） the local people.The following are some basic rules that will make communication easier，and your trip more enjoyable.
    First，never raise your voice in order to make yourself understood.If you don't know the word for something in the local language，try to draw a picture or point to an object.Before you travel，you can also learn some basic words or phrases of the local language，such as words for please，thank you，and may I，as well as basic greetings.
    Second，consider the main religion （信仰） of the country you plan to visit and read about any taboos （禁忌） related to clothing.You can bring some clothes such as shirts or T-shirts that cover your shoulders，and long trousers.
    Avoid topics that you think may be sensitive （敏感的）.If a topic is sensitive in your own culture，it will likely be the same in other cultures.Feel free to show interest in the history and customs of the place that you are visiting，but don't ask too many questions about why things are done in a certain way，because you may make the local people unhappy.
    Keep in mind that in many cultures，showing affection （情感） in public is considered taboo.Kissing on the street or in public is unacceptable behavior and should be avoided.If you are unsure of how to behave，watch the local people and copy them.
    Finally，if you wish to take a gift，do some research.The idea of the perfect gift is different greatly from country to country，and one of the easiest ways to offend someone is to give the wrong gift.

2．A taboo（忌諱，禁忌） 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 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．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．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 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．Marriage，job and age are their taboos．Isn't it a good lesson to remember？

Facts In India Indians don't eat （92）
