In Japan the listeners sometimes close their eyes to show respect for the speaker's ideas.

Eye contact is considered aggressive in Japan. People will look away if you look them in the eye. It's considered unfriendly or intrusive to make direct eye contact. Brief eye contact is acceptable, but you should look elsewhere for the most of the talk.

The act of closing eyes when someone is sharing one's ideas is considered as paying reverence.

Since, maintaining an eye contact is considered aggressive in Japan, to demonstrate their regard and respect for the speaker's ideas, Japanese listeners occasionally close their eyes.

Read the excerpt from David Crockett: His Life and Adventures by John S. C. Abbott.
Andrews [41]

Answer: a lack of sophistication

Explanation:

The way the author depicts the scenario above shows that the people there have a lack of sophistication.

Reasons being:

  • The table was simply a large slab of timber
  • No crockery was used rather horn spoons.
  • People used the knives in their sheaths in lieu of table knives.  

These points are not meant to insult but rather to show that the people here used primitive methods and so could not be said to be sophisticated.
