二、阅读理解
High in
the Swiss Alps many years ago, there lived a
lonely shepherd
(牧羊人)
boy who
longed
for a friend to share his evenin
gs.
(很多年以前,在瑞士阿尔卑斯山上住着一个牧羊人,他期望能
< br>找到一个朋友在夜晚与他为伴。)
One night
he saw three old men, each holding a glass.
The first old man
said
:
“Drink this liquid and
you shall be victorious in battle.”
The second old man
said
:
“Drink this liquid and
you shall have countless riches.”
The last old man
said
:
“I offer you the
happiness of music
-----the
horn
(号角)
.”
The boy chose the third glass, ten feet
in length, When he put his lips to it, a beautiful
melody
(旋
律)
floated across the valley. He had found
a friend.
So goes the
legend
(传说)
of the
horn. First known in the ninth century, the horn
was used by
herdsmen
to
call
cattle,
for
its
deep
tones
echoed
across
the
mountainsides.
Even
today,
on
a
quiet
summer evening, its
music can be heard floating among the peaks.

In the United States, it is not
customary to telephone someone very early in the
morning.
(在美国
通常不会在清晨给人家打电话。)
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 pm. If someone receives a
call
during
sleeping
hours,
he
assumes
it's
a
matter
of
life
or
death.
The
time
chosen
for
the
call
communicates its
importance.
In social life, time plays
a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend
to feel they are not highly
regarded if
the invitation to a dinner party 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 differs
in different parts of the world. Thus,
misunderstandings arise between people
from different cultures that treat time
differently. Promptness is valued highly in
American life, for
example. If people
are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite
or not fully responsible. In the
U.S.
no one would think of keeping a business associate
waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite.
A
person,
who
is
5
minutes
late,
will
say
a
few
words
of
explanation,
though
perhaps
he
will
not
complete
the sentence.
