V/ Reading: read the following passage and answer the questions (2ps)

When an American wants to show that something is OK or good, he raises his hand and makes a circle with his thumb and forefinger. The circle sign has only one meaning for him. He might be surprised to learn that in other countries it can mean something very different.
In Japan, for instance, it is the gesture for money. In France, it means “zero” or “worthless”. Such differences can lead to all kinds of misunderstanding when foreigners meet. But why is it that the same gesture has so many different meaning?
When some people want to show that something is exact or precise, they make a sign to show that they are holding something between the tips of their thumb and forefinger. In this way they make a circle with their fingers. Many people from all over the world do this when they want to make a specific point as they are speaking. People later started using this signal to mean “exactly right” or “perfect”. This was how the famous OK sign was born.
