But like so many things that we do without thinking, such actions at one time probably symbolized something. For example, in primitive (原始的) life the hand was probably a symbol of power and strength. The hand was used to fight enemies, kill animals, and make spears and tools. So when the hand was extended to someone, it could have represented good will, since it showed that the person was not armed or ready to fight. We know that the hand was an important symbol in early religions, probably as a mark of power. The Greeks prayed to their gods with raised hands.Presenting the hands palm to palm was at one time the way an inferior (地位低的) person paid respect to a superior (地位高的) one. Among the Arabs, it was customary at one time to kiss the hand of a superior. Later on, polite Arabs began to resist the efforts of people to kiss their hands, and sometimes they would end up shaking hands as each tried to prevent the other from showing this mark of inferiority? The early Greeks held out the right hand when they wished to indicate friendship to a stranger. So we can see that the hand, and what was done with it, was full of meaning to people down through the ages. And while we shake hands without thinking, we are really carrying on a custom that has been handed down to us from ancient times.【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了握手的起源及其所表达的含义。1.What would be the best title for the passage?A.What Does Handshake Stand for?
