Unit 4 Our customs and traditions (phần X, XI, XII)

 

X. Read the following passage and answer the questions.

Wedding Traditions around the World

PRANCE: A lovely custom coming to us out of Prance comes in the form of a two handled cup called the “coup de marriage”. The cup was saved to be used from one generation to another. 0f course, the custom has long been established of drinking a toast to one another, but the two handled cup adds a special touch to the weddings of today. Until recently, these cups have been very difficult to find. Drinking from the same cup denotes “togetherness,”.

GERMANY: The tradition coming to us out of Germany includes the bride and groom holding candles trimmed with flowers and ribbons. This beautiful old tradition could be included in a wedding of today, with the couple placing candles they have carried to the

alter beside their unitv candle, These candles could then be used to light the unity candle at the end of the ceremony.

INDIA: Flowers have always played a very important part in the Indian wedding. A lasting tradition passed along from generation to generation is that of the brother of the groom sprinkling flower petals over the heads of the couple following the wedding vows and at the end of the ceremony.
