以下の長文にスラッシュを入れて、英文の下の行にスラッシュ・ライティングを書きなさい。

① Today, in many parts of the world, it is customary for people to shake

hands on meeting, as a gesture of good will. Originally, however, the practice

of shaking hands has a more practical purpose.

② Shaking hands originated in medieval times. In those days, when a man

came across a stranger, he would often reach for his weapon out of fear in

spite of himself with his right hand, in case he had to use the weapon to

defend himself. Sometimes, the two men had been circling around each other,

with weapons in their hands, until they laid aside the weapons. Then the two

persons extended their right hands to show they had no weapons.

③ It is not known when and why the handshake changed from a simple

clasping of hands to include a shaking movement. This shaking movement of

the clasped hands probably started as early as the sixteenth century.
