21、Time is not a fixed object. The idea of time in any given culture is largely a product created by beliefs, traditions, and values. In some cases, time is thought of as formless and is based on what is going on at the moment, rather than as a planned object. Others regard time as a machine: a real thing which is fixed, which can be divided into schedules (日程安排) and can be wasted.

Similarly, cultures are also likely to think of the passing of time in different ways as well. A society can be moved towards a specific (特定化的) understanding of history. Many cultures, such as British, Native American, Greek, French, Japanese, and some other Asian cultures, take the past, cultural history, and traditions as having the most importance, and use them as a guide in making present-day decisions. Some cultures see the present moment as the most important. Tradition holds little importance, and planning for the future is not the most important thing, but rather the present time is more valued, and these kinds of lifestyles are relaxed. Other societies can be future-oriented (关注未来的), and place an additional focus on planning and forward movement, and the present activities are treated as a bridge to this future goal. This is the common agreement in the United States.

How a person thinks of time can be understood in the way they work together with others. Someone with a focus on the future will hold schedules and times to be very important, as they are necessary for moving on to the next step. However, someone who lives more in the present may consider a certain meeting time as not fixed. In Italy and in many Arab countries, it is normal for people to be 30 minutes late for a meeting. It is different in the United States or Britain, for example, where lateness is accepted only up to 5 or 10 minutes.

The concept (概念) of time, and its flexibility (灵活多变), meaning, and even the nature of its existence (存在) is something which is deeply laid in the base of any culture. It is very important when entering into an agreement with someone, whether socially, or in a business setting, to realize that they may have a different idea about the importance of deadlines and schedules. No one can be right or wrong in their own way, but still people can be accidentally insulted (冒犯) as a result of a misunderstanding.

【1】From the first paragraph, we can know that ________.

A．people think of time as a sign of culture

B．people have different opinions about time

C．time is about what's going on right now

A．it helps us to make present decisions

【3】Which example best describes a present-oriented culture?

A．Making a plan for tomorrow's work.

B．Planning a tour to the Forbidden City.

C．Eating dumplings during a festival.

D．Never paying attention to the weather report.

23、Everyone wants to be perfect. Finding a good way to achieve self­improvement (自我提高) is more and more popular. For this, the beginning of a new term is a great time to think about ways that you can improve in the coming school year. Here are some suggestions for New term’s resolutions(决心).

For example, if you want to lose weight, you can start by exercise.

Our new term’s resolutions and goals can be about anything, from saving more money so that you can buy a really cool toy, to making more friends, or to spending more time with your family. Start by writing down some goals on a piece of paper. After you finish, keep the paper somewhere you can see, like on your fridge or a wall in your room. Don’t forget to check the things on the paper if you complete.

24、Henry was a carpenter (木匠) of our village. Once I asked him to make a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows. When I arrived home that evening, Henry was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for his work.

My wife said to me quietly, “That’s his ninth cup of tea today.” But she said loudly,

“It’s a beautiful table, dear, isn’t it?”

“I won’t decide about that until I see that bill,” I said.

Henry laughed and gave me his bill for the work. It said:

When I was looking at the bill, Henry said, “It’s a fine day, isn’t it? Quite sunny.”

“Yes,” I said. “I’m glad it is only the 10th of June.”

“Me too,” said Henry. “You wait—it’ll be a bit hotter by the end of the month.”

“Yes. Hotter—and more expensive. Dining tables will be 20 more expensive on June 30th, won’t they, Henry?”

Henry looked hard at me for half a minute. There was a little smile in his two blue eyes. I gave his bill back to him.

“If it isn’t too much trouble, Henry,” I said. “Please add it up again. You can forget the date.”

I paid him 26.50 and he was happy to get it.
