Even a child knows that nodding the head means “Yes”. But some people will probably be puzzled when they first come to India. When they talk to an Indian, he often shakes his head. They might think that the Indian does not like what he said, but on the contrary he is expressing agreement.
The Indians have a habit of shaking their heads slightly when they talk to somebody. It doesn’t mean “No”, but “Yes”.
If a person doesn’t know this, it might cause misunderstanding.
At one time a foreigner in Indian told his driver who was an Indian to take him to his office. The driver shook his head. The foreigner repeated his request and the driver shook his head again. At last, the foreigner shouted angrily, “Drive me to my office at once!” The driver said in a low voice, “Yes, sir,” smiling and shaking his head again at the same time.

文章讲述了印度一个与众不同的风俗,摇头不表示反对而表示同意。
小题1:细节题。根据第一段Even a child knows that nodding the head means “Yes”和When they talk to an Indian, he often shakes his head.
小题2:推理题。因为在印度摇头表示同意。
小题3:推理题。根据文章最后一段可知是双方存在着误会。
小题4:猜测词义题。根据第一段内容可知在印度摇头表示同意。这个短语表示“相反”。

英语翻译
When you are old and gray and full of sleep
And nodding by the fire,take down this book,
And slowly read,and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once,and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true;
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down besides the glowing bars,
Murmur little sadly,how love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead,
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

当你年老,鬓白,睡意昏沉,
在炉旁打盹时,取下这本书,
慢慢诵读,梦忆从前你双眸
神色柔和,眼波中倒影深深;
多少人爱你风韵妩媚的时光,
爱你的美丽出自假意或真情,
但唯有一人爱你灵魂的至诚,
爱你渐衰的脸上愁苦的风霜;
弯下身子,在炽红的壁炉边,
忧伤地低诉,爱神如何逃走,
在头顶上的群山巅漫步闲游,
把他的面孔隐没在繁星中间.

当年华已逝,你两鬓斑白,沉沉欲睡,
坐在炉边慢慢打盹,请取下我的这本诗集,
请缓缓读起,如梦一般,你会重温,
你那脉脉眼波,她们是曾经那么的深情和柔美.
多少人曾爱过你容光焕发的楚楚魅力,
爱你的倾城容颜,或是真心,或是做戏,
但只有一个人!他爱的是你圣洁虔诚的心!
当你洗尽铅华,伤逝红颜的老去,他也依然深爱着你!
炉里的火焰温暖明亮,你轻轻低下头去,
带着淡淡的凄然,为了枯萎熄灭的爱情?br/> 此时他正在千山万壑之间独自游荡,
在那满天凝视你的繁星后面隐起了脸庞
