英语翻译In the United States,it is not normal to telephone someone very early in the morning.If you telephone him early in the day,while he is shaving or having breakfast,the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention.The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m.If someone receives a call during sleeping hours,he assumes it's a matter of life and death.The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life,time plays a very important role.In the US guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation (邀请) to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date.But this is not true in all countries.In other areas of the world it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten.The meaning of time is different in different parts of the world.Thus,misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently.To be on time is valued highly in American life,for example.If people are not on time,they may be regarded as not polite or not fully responsible.In the US no one would think of keeping a business associate it would be bad-mannered.A person who is five minutes late is expected to apologize.If he is less than five minutes late,he will say a few words of explanation,though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.6.If you telephone someone early in the day,it means ___________________.A.you are expected to explain why B.you are not kind enough C.you want to show your concern for him D.you have a very important matter to discuss 7.The expression "a matter of life and death" means __________________.A.an issue of the greatest importance and emergency B.a very important appointment C.a matter of whether someone should live or die D.a strong desire to communicate 8.In the US guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded _______________.A.if the invitation to a dinner party is not extended early enough B.if the invitation to a dinner party is extended too far in advance C.if the invitation to a dinner party is not extended repeatedly D.if the invitation to a dinner party is extended to too many people 9.The word "misunderstanding" can be explained as ____________.A.failing to attend a party B.failing to understand correctly C.standing in one's way D.standing on one's own feet 10.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A.In the US it's normal to keep someone waiting for some time.B.In the US it's not polite to keep someone waiting for an hour.C.In the US one is always expected to be on time.D.In the US one is expected to apologize if he is five minutes late

在美国,早上很早给人打电话是不正常的.假如你很早打电话,他可能在刮胡子,吃早餐,那么这就说明这个电话所要说的事情非常紧急并且要求马上关注.晚上11点后给人打电话给人的信号也是一样的.如果一个人在睡觉时间接到电话,那他会认为发生了生死攸关的大事.打电话的时间传达了事情的重要性.在社会生活中,时间扮演了很重要的角色.在美国,如果在派对举行的前3、4天才才收到邀请,客人们会觉得他们没有受到足够的尊重.但并不是所有的国家都是这样.在世界上的其他一些地方,如果提前太长时间发出一个约会邀请,人们会认为这是愚蠢的行为,因为长于一周的计划可能会被忘掉.在世界上不同的地方,时间的意义也不尽相同.这样,来自不同文化环境的人们,由于他们对待时间的态度不一样,会产生误解.守时在美国人的生活中会被高度尊重,比如,如果人们不守时,这可能会被认为是不礼貌的或这个人不完全尽责的.在美国,让你的生意伙伴等待一个小时是不可想象的.这是没教养的.如果一个人迟到5分钟,人们就希望他道歉.如果他迟到少于5分钟,那他至少应该说一些解释的话,尽管这些话不能自圆其说.6D;7A;8A;9B;10A
