if not, it's a Buddhist temple A visit to a shrine first involves the visitor washing his hands and mouth at a pool in front of the shrine Then he will make an offering of money, ring the gong, bow twice, clap twice and bow twice more To an outsider's eyes, there are a few differences with regards to religion as it is practised in Japan The most obvious is that in Japan it is perfectly permissible - indeed, almost expected - that people can be both Buddhist and Shintoist at the same time Many Japanese, for example, will get married in a Shintou ceremony, but will have Buddhist rites at their funerals In fact, many Japanese seem to avoid people who appear overtly religious Occasionally you will meet a proselytiser of some religion on the street, but in general, people seem to think that that kind of behaviour is reserved for cult members People have strong memories of the cult that killed and injured so many people on the Tokyo underground system with toxic sarin gas in 1995, and find anyone who is not moderate in his religion a little unsettling Performing dispassionate, ritualistic acts is line, I suppose, but many Japanese cannot begin to fathom those who take strong moral stands So much of Japanese society is geared towards enjoying oneself that there Trang 3/4 - Mã đề thi 418 seems to be no appetite left for considering intangible issues As one Japanese told me when I expressed an appreciation in the aesthetics of Zen, "I can't it It's just too hard." This attitude may go a long way in explaining why non-Japanese friends of mine who were so interested in Buddhism wound up criticising Japan as a religiously dead society Question 41: Shinto, the native religion of Japan, has A no set of formal religious beliefs B its origin from Buddhism C a lot of philosophy behind it D many indigenous followers Question 42: Souka Gakkai is a group of Buddists that A has great power and influence in Japanese politics B consists of leading members of political parties in Japan C has a close connection with Zen Buddhism D seperated from Buddhism in the 6th century Question 43: The word “prestige” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A reputation B rank C level D status Question 44: A visitor to a Shintou shrine has to A offer some money to the beggars in the shrine B wash his hands and mouth before coming in the shrine C wash his hands and mouth after performing some rites in the shrine D ring the gong in the front of the shrine Question 45: It can be inferred that a non-Japanese buddhist A will be surprised with the Buddhist rites at Japanese funerals B has to become a Shintoist if he wants to settle in Japan C may find a Shintou wedding ceremony strange D may find some differences in the way Japanese practise Buddhism Question 46: Japansese people may feel worried when they see A someone who is too moderate in his religion B a proselytiser of some religion on the street C a person who is extreme in his religion D a person who appears secretly religious Question 47: Today little people in Japan are interested in A taking strong moral stands B enjoying themselves C considering intangible issues D the aesthetics of Zen Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that is closest in meaning to each of the following questions Question 48: “We’re having a reunion this weekend Why don’t you come?” John said to us A John cordially invited us to a reunion that weekend B John simply asked us why we wouldn’t come to a reunion that weekend C John suggested we coming to a reunion that weekend D John asked us why we didn’t come to a reunion this weekend that weekend Question 49: Access to the library computer facilities is open to students A The library computer facilities are accessible to students B Students can freely assess the library computer service C Students are not allowed to use library computers D Computers in the library are not used for students Question 50: Many people believe that Egyptian pyramids were built by aliens A Egyptian pyramids are believed to have built by aliens B It is believed that Egyptian pyramids were built by aliens C Aliens are believed to build Egyptian pyramids D Egyptian pyramids are believed to build by aliens - THE END Trang 4/4 - Mã đề thi 418 ... difficult to the exact meaning of an idiom in a foreign language A exchange B convert C transfer D convey Trang 2/4 - Mã đề thi 418 Question 29: I always enjoy visiting Hanoi, I wouldn’t like... suppose, but many Japanese cannot begin to fathom those who take strong moral stands So much of Japanese society is geared towards enjoying oneself that there Trang 3/4 - Mã đề thi 418 seems to... are Souka Gakkai - the quasi-political religious group that has significant political clout - and Zen Buddhism Shintou and Buddhism have a long and intertwined history in Japan, and it is only
