Throughout human history there have been many stringent taboos concerning watching other people eat or eating in the presence of others. There have been attempts to explain these taboos in terms of 5 inappropriate social relationships either between those who are involved and those who are not simultaneously involved in the satisfaction of a bodily need, or between those already satiated and those who appear to be shamelessly gorging. Undoubtedly such elements 10 exist in the taboos, but there is an additional element with a much more fundamental importance. In prehistoric times, when food was so precious and the on-lookers so hungry, not to offer half of the little food one had was unthinkable, since every glance was a plea 15 for life.
11. If the argument in the passage is valid, taboos against eating in the presence of others who are not also eating would be LEAST likely in a society that
had always had a plentiful supply of food
emphasized the need to share worldly goods
had a nomadic rather than an agricultural way of life
emphasized the value of privacy
discouraged overindulgence
12. The author s hypothesis concerning the origin of taboos against watching other people eat emphasizes the
general palatability of food
religious significance of food
limited availability of food
various sources of food
nutritional value of food
13. Select the sentence in the passage in which the author suggests that past attempts to explain some taboos concerning eating are incomplete.
答案:A/C,/Undoubtedly such elements。。。
