Each statement contains

35、hony has an eight-to-five job with two 15-minute coffee breaks, a one-hour lunch break, scheduled appointments and weekly deadlines. Every time she enters and leaves her office building she “punches“ the clock. Although she is not aware of it, her workday is strongly influenced by her cultures attit
36、udes toward time.B. When travellers lack an awareness of how time is regulated in a foreign country, they can expect to feel somewhat confused. Since most people take time for granted, the effects of values, customs, and social manners on the use of time are seldom examined. A culture that values ac
37、hievements and progress will discourage people from “wasting“ time. Highly efficient business people from these cultures may feel frustrated in a country where work proceeds at a low pace. In religious societies, customs specify time of the day, week, or year for prayers and religious celebrations.
38、If an individual tries to make an appointment during a sacred holiday, he or she could unknowingly offend a religious person. Social manners determine appropriate time for visits, meetings, and even phone calls. Arriving two hours late for an appointment may be acceptable in one culture, whereas in
39、another, keeping someone waiting fifteen minutes may be considered rude.C. Promptness is important in American business, academic and social settings. The importance of punctuality is taught to young children in school. Slow slips and the use of bells signal to the child that punctuality and time it
40、self are to be respected. An amusing report of a schoolchilds experiences with time appeared in a recent newspaper article: My mother used to tell me how crucial it was to be at school when the first bell rang. Preparation for my “on-time“ appearance began the night before. I was directed to go to b
41、ed early so I could wake up wide-eyed at 7 a.m. with enough time to get ready. Although I usually managed to watch my share of TV cartoons, I knew that in one hour I had to get dressed, eat breakfast, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and be on my way to school or I would be violating an important rule
42、of Mums, of the schools, or of the worlds. It was hard to tell which.D. People who keep appointments are considered dependable. If people are late for job interviews, appointments, or classes, they are often viewed as unreliable and irresponsible. In the business world, “time is money“ and companies
43、 may fire their executives for slowness to business meetings. Of course, it is not always possible to be punctual. Social and business etiquette also provides rules for late arrivals. Calling on the telephone if one is going to be more than a few minutes late for scheduled appointments is considered
44、 polite and is often expected. Keeping a date or a friend waiting beyond ten to twenty minutes is considered rude. On the other hand, arriving thirty minutes late for some parties is acceptable.E. Respecting deadlines is also important in academic and professional circles. It is expected that deadli
45、nes for class assignments or business reports will be met. Students who hand in assignments late may be surprised to find that the professor will lower their grades or even refuse to grade their work. Whether it is a question of arriving on time or of meeting a deadline, people are culturally condit
46、ioned to regulate time.F. Time is “tangible“ (有形资产): One can “gain time“, “spend time“, “waste time“, “save time“, or even “kill time“! Common questions in American English reveal this concrete quality as though time were a possession. “Do you have time?“ “Can you make some time for this?“ “How much free time do you have?“ The treatment of time as a possession influences the way time is carefully divided.G. Generally, Americans are taught to do one thing at
