are more of differenoes than similarities between them in all ways, including their drinking customs.
A superficial (表面上的) observer might think that no one in Ndrway drinks wine. Meals eaten in
restaurants or at home are usually washed down with tea, coffee or milk. Occasionally however, pale or
dark ale (麦芽酒) is drunk. It can be ordered only in restaurants, where it is served only with food.
Excellent quality beers are made in Jutland and the price is high. After beer, brandy is the favorite
drink. Aalborg schnapps made from corn and potatoes, is famous for its high alcoholic content. For the
Danes, brandy is also an aperitif (开胃酒) and is often drunk before meals. For a foreigner, the practice
of surrounding toasts here can be uncomfortable. If he accepts one toast then he will have to accept all
others, and it is difficult to drink six or seven glasses of brandy unless one is used to it. IAdies are
fortunately excluded from these rounds and they drink only a grape juice with almost no alcoholic content.
It is milk instead of liquor that is the principal (最重要的; 主要的) Finnish table drink. More milk is
drunk by the Finnish people than in any other nation. In Finland the sale of alcohol is a state behavior and
a check is kept on consumption by recording purchases on special card issued to all customers.
As there is a difference between Swedish cooking in the south and that in the north because of the
difference in soil and climate, their drinking habits are also different. In the north alcoholic beverages (烈
酒) are considered a necessity because they keep out the cold. While in the south people have milder drinks.
But generally speaking, too much drinking is rare in Sweden, partly because it is against the law.
Sale of spirits is controlled, the Swedes drink much coffee and tea. Many people still prefer the old-
fashioned coffee served in large cups with cakes. Tea is so popular in Sweden that it has been called the
Swedish national drink.
B. Brandy.
C. Aperitif.
D. Grape juice.
B. The American people.
C. The Finish people.
D. The French people.
B. is unwilling to have a surrounding toast
C. would like to accept others" toasts

a magician, who claims to have supernatural powers.
Magic words. To work most magic, the magician sings or speaks special words in a certain order. These
words are called incantations or spells. Some spells form prayers to demons (魔鬼), spirits, or other
supernatural forces. Many societies believe the magic will not work unless the magician recites the spells
perfectly. Other magic words have no meaning, though they supposedly possess power when spoken by a
magician.
Magic actions accompany the words spoken in performing much magic. Many of these movements act
out the desired effect of the magic. For example, a magician trying to make rain fall may sprinkle (洒) water
on the ground. The magician"s combined words and actions form a ceremony.
Magic objects include certain plants, stones, and other things with supposed supernatural powers. Any
such object may be called a fetish (物神). But this term often refers to an object-for example, a carving or
a dried snake-honored by a tribe for its magic powers. Many tribes believe fetishes have magic power because
spirits live in these objects.
Many people carry magic objects called amulets (护身符) to protect themselves from harm. Many amulets
are stones or rings engraved (雕刻) with magic symbols.
The magician. In some societies, nearly everyone knows how to work some magic. In other societies,
only experts practice magic. Magicians may be called medicine men, medicine women, shamans, sorcorers,
or witch doctors. In many societies, magicians must inherit their powers. In others, any person may become
a magician by studying the magical arts.
Many societies believe magicians must observe certain rules and taboos (forbidden actions) for their spells
to work. For example, they may be required not to eat various foods or to avoid sexual activity for a certain
period before the ceremony.

Mississippi river in the spring for the great war. When the snow melted, Rising Sun"s small tribe waited in the

Sun sent braves out to track down Falling Rock. He got the news that all the tribes had waited to hear when
the war was to take place, but Falling Rock had not been seen by any of them.
The white soldiers surrounded Rising Sun"s tribe. Rising Sun knew they could never win. Rising Sun
promised to go peacefully to a reservation if the white men would help him find his lost son. This was a small
price for avoiding a fight so the white men agreed.
