When two hands meet, we pass on something of ourselves. After 【26】______ to Mark Twain, Helen—who was both deaf and blind—commented, "I can feel the twinkle of his eye 【27】______ his handshake." In some indefinable way, Twain had 【28】______ his charm to Keller.
And that's probably been true of the handshake all the 【29】______ back to its earliest days, — 【30】______ no one can tell its actual 【31】______ . A common explanation is that 【32】______ early man encountered a stranger, he 【33】______ out his hand to show he had no weapon. From this, supposedly, 【34】______ the handshake.
Not so, says historian Brian Burke. He believes, the handshake 【35】______ "putting your blood behind your breath." He explains that ancient people 【36】______ the spoken word alone, and they used the handclasp to signify that their 【37】______ was backed up by the 【38】______ of their heart—i, e. , their blood. 【39】______ , the handshake suggested trust.
That 【40】______ of trust has survived to this day. People in business often 【41】______ agreements simply by declaring, "Let's shake 【42】______ it."
Perhaps the most 【43】______ handshake took place on July 17, 1975, during the Apollo-Soyuz get-together in space. After the two crafts came together, American astronaut Thomas Stafford 【44】______ the extended hand of Soviet cosmonaut Alexey Leonov. The 【45】______ to the world was one of friendship and peace.

Immigrants are quickly fitting into this common culture, which may not be altogether elevating but is hardly poisonous. Writing for the National Immigration Forum, Gregory Rodriguez reports that today's immigration is neither at unprecedented level nor resistant to assimilation. In 1998 immigrants were 9.8 percent of population;in 1900,13.6 percent. In the 10 years prior to 1990,3. I immigrants arrived for every 1,000 residents; in the 10years prior to 1890,9. 2 for every 1,000. Now, consider three indices of assimilation--language, home ownership and intermarriage.
The 1990 Census revealed that "a majority of immigrants from each of the fifteen most common countries of origin spoke English ' well' or ' very well' after ten years of residence". The children of immigrants tend to be bilingual and proficient in English. "By the third generation, the original language is lost in the majority of immigrant families. "Hence the description of America as a "graveyard" for languages. By 1996 foreign-born immigrants who had arrived before 1970 had a home ownership rate of 75.6 percent, higher than the 69.8 percent rate among native-born Americans.
Foreign-born Asians and Hispanics "have higher rates of intermarriage than do U. S-born whites and blacks". By the third generation, one third of Hispanic women are married to non-Hispanics, and 41 percent of Asian-American women are married to non-Asians.
Rodriguez note that children in remote villages around the world are fans of superstars like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Garth Brooks, yet "some Americans fear that immigrant living within the United States remain somehow immune to the nation's assimilative power".
Are there divisive issues and pockets of seething anger in America？ Indeed. It is big enough to have a bit of everything. But particularly when viewed against America's turbulent past, today's social induces suggest a dark and deteriorating social environment.
The word "homogenizing" (Line 1, Paragraph 1) most probably means ______ .
A．identifying
B．associating
C．assimilating
D．monopolizing
Five ways to make conversation with anyone
Conversations are links, which means when you have a conversation with a new person a link gets formed and every conversation you have after that moment will strengthen the link.
You meet new people every day: the grocery worker, the cab driver, new people at work or the security guard at the door. Simply starting a conversation with them will form. a link.
Here are five simple ways that you can make the first move and start a conversation with strangers.
41._____
Suppose you are in a room with someone you don&39;t know and something within you says" I want to talk with this person”—this is something the mostly happens with all of us. You wanted to say something—the first word—but it just won&39;t come out. It feels like itis stuck somewhere, I know the feeling and here is my advice just get it out.
Just think: that is the worst that could happen？ They won&39;t talk with you？ Well, they are not talking with you now!
I truly believe that once you get that first word out everything else will just flow. So keep it simple: “Hi”,“ Hey” or “Hello”—do the best you can to gather all of the enthusiasm and energy you can, put on a big smile and say “Hi”.
42._____
It&39;s a problem all of us face: you have limited time with the person that you want to talk with and you want to make this talk memorable.
Honestly, if we got stuck in the rut of "hi", "hello", “how are you？” and" what&39; s going on？" you will fail to give the initial jolt to the conversation that&39;s can make it so memorable.
So don&39;t be afraid to ask more personal questions. Trust me, you&39;ll be surprised to see how much people are willing to share if you just ask.
43._____
When you meet a person for the first time, make an effort to find the things which you and that person have in common so that you can build the conversation from that point. When you start conversation from there and then move outwards, you&39;ll find all of a sudden that the conversation becomes a lot easier.
44._____
Imagine you are pouring your heart out to someone and they are just busy on their phone, and if you ask for their attention you get the response “I can multitask”.
So when someone tries to communicate with you, just be in that communication wholeheartedly. Make eye contact, you can feel the conversation.
45._____
You all came into a conversation where you first met the person, but after some time you may have met again and have forgotten their name. Isn&39;t that awkward!
So remember the little details of the people you met or you talked with; perhaps the places they have been to the place they want to go, the things they like, the thing the hate—whatever you talk about.
When you remember such thing you can automatically become investor in their wellbeing. So the feel a responsibility to you to keep that relationship going.
That&39;s it. Five amazing ways that you can make conversation with almost anyone. Every person is a really good book to read, or to have a conversation with!

请帮忙给出每个问题的正确答案和分析，谢谢！
The people who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the contrary things. Therefore, they are continually discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy person would be the more to be critical. The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and scarcely that. This frequency puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at obtaining some advantage in rank or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone stir a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their misconduct. These people should change this bad habit and condescend to be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.
According to the author, the major reason to cause the difference between happy and unhappy people is ______.
A．that they have different life styles
B．that they have fewer friends
C．that they look at things differently
D．that they are not on good terms with the people around them
