　　Mr. King lived with six hundred wild animals on the Greek Island of Kilos. Ever since he left school, he had traveled all over the world collecting animals for his own zoo. He hoped to collect two examples of every kind of animal on his island. But he was afraid that people would find him someday.

　　Maybe you know that the letter “V” stands for victory in western countries. But do you know the history of the sign?

　　During World War Ⅱ, Europe was occupied (占領) by the Germans. A lot of people got away to Britain. Among them was one Belgian (比利時人) named Victor Valveli. He was very patriotic (愛國的) . And every day, he used short-wave radio to broadcast to the Belgian people, calling on them to resist (抵抗) the German occupiers (侵略者). On the last day of 1940, he asked his country men to write the letter “V” wherever they could to show their decision to win the final victory. In a few days, the letter “V” appeared everywhere, even in the German barracks (營房) and the living quarters of Nazi officers (納粹軍官).

　　Later, the letter “V” spread to the other occupied countries in Europe. Because it was simple and meaningful, it soon became very popular. When friends met, they stretched out their middle and index finger (食指) to greet each other.

　　As I was leaving to meet Lynne, my roommate told me that I'd better take some money, but I didn't listen to him. I thought that Lynne would pay because she had invited me.

　　I arrived at the restaurant exactly on time. I'd been told that Americans expect you to be on time. Lynne and I sat at a table in the corner of the restaurant and a waitress came and took our order.

　　The dinner was a great success. I talked a lot about Saudi Arabia and Lynne told me all about herself. After two hours the waitress finally came and asked if we wanted one check or two. Lynne said two. We went to the cashier (出納員) and Lynne paid her check (帳單) . I was embarrassed (窘迫的) when the cashier gave me my bill. I had no money to pay for my meal. Then I had an idea. I pretended to look for something in my pockets and said, “Oh! I forgot my money! Can I call my roommate, please?” The cashier showed me where the phone was and I quickly called my roommate.

　　In a few minutes he arrived with some money. But he couldn't hide how he felt. He laughed all the way home. Now, I think it's funny too, but at the time I was terribly embarrassed. I thought that an invitation to have dinner didn't mean the same thing in the United States as in my country. I guess you have to understand that your customs are only your customs.

　　If an American is satisfied with you, he will put his thumb and forefinger (食指) into a circle. That means OK. But in Brazil the very sign is considered to be rude. In Poland, a guest usually presents flowers to his hostess. The number must be an odd (奇數(shù)) one. Besides, the hostess isn't expected to remove the cover of the bunch of flowers. And usually, the red rose is a sign of love.

　　Usually we nod to express our agreement and shake our heads to show disapproval (不贊成) . To our surprise these body movements mean the opposite in Bulgaria (保加利亞) .

　　The differences in customs and cultures in the world are really noticeable. We should learn more about them to avoid embarrassment (窘迫) . Then, would you please remember: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
