generally, you should pay much attention to the time and strength. it is unwelcome to shake hands too long or too short. three to five seconds is the best, not exceed 30 seconds at most. handshaking should be simple and light.16handshaking _. ais kind of silent language only in chinabis also a used form of greeting in any other countrycnot only means greetingsdis mainly on the wedding day17handshaking can be used to express _. acongratulations bargument csadness dwisdom 18mrs king and her son jack met jacks teacher mr lee on the way to the supermarket. _ should reach out hand first. amr lee bjack cmrs king dmr king19when people say goodbye to each other _ should offer hand first. athe female bthe married cthe host dthe guest20when you shake hands, you should pay attention to _ athe time bthe appearance cthe furthest dthe senior、词形变化（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分）1.there are two babies _(sleep) in the room. be quiet. 2. what do you think of mr wangs teaching?
