But we dont clap at the end of a television programme or a book, however good they are. We clap at the end of a liveperformance， such as a play,
2、or a concert, to say thank you to the performers. First they give, and then we give. Without us the audience the performance would not be complete.The custom of clapping has early beginnings. In classical Athens, applause meant judgement and taking part. Plays were often in competition with each oth
3、er, and prolonged clapping helped a play to win. The theatre was large it could hold 14,000 people, half the adult male population of the city, which meant that the audience could make a lot of noise.Applause was a sign of being part of the community, and of equality between actors and audience. The
4、 important thing was to make the noise together, to add ones own small handclap to others. Clapping is social， like laughter： you dont very often clap or laugh out loud alone. It is like laughter in another way， too: it is infectious， and spreads very quickly. Clapping at concerts and theatres is a
5、universal habit. But some occasions on which people clap change from one country to another.

8、junrl/n.葬礼at a funeral在葬礼上鼓掌第13段译文我们为什么鼓掌？当然是为了表示我们喜欢某件东西。但不论一个电视节目或一本书有多好，在结束时我们都不鼓掌。我们在现场表演，如戏剧或音乐会结束时鼓掌，以表示对演出者的感谢。首先他们给予精彩的表演，然后我们给予热烈的掌声。如果没有我们观众演出就是不完整的。鼓掌的习俗很早就开始了。在古代雅典，掌声意味着评判和参与。戏剧常常是彼此竞争的，延长的掌声可以帮助某出戏剧获胜。剧场很大可容纳14 000人，是城市成年男性人口的一半，这就意味着观众们可以制造出很多声响。掌声是一个人成为团体一员的标志，是演员与观众平等的标志。重要的是整齐地制造声响
9、，将一个人微弱的鼓掌声与其他人的融合起来。鼓掌具有其社会性，就像笑声：你独自一人时不会经常鼓掌或大笑。鼓掌在另一方面也很像笑声：会传染，而且传播得很快。在音乐会上和剧场里鼓掌是世界性的习惯。但是人们鼓掌的一些场合因国家的不同而有所不同。例如，在英国人们在婚礼上鼓掌，而在意大利人们有时会在葬礼上鼓掌。Step 1True (T) or False (F)1The reason why we clap is that we like something._T_2We dont clap at the end of a live performance._F_3The custom of clapp
