O. Henry was a pen name used by an American writer of short stories. His

real name was William Sydney Porter. He was born in North Carolina in 1862. As

a young boy, he lived an exciting life. He did not go to school for very long, but he

managed to teach himself everything he needed to know. When he was about 20

years old, went to Texas, where he tried different jobs. He first worked

on a newspaper, and then had a job in a bank. When some money went missing

from the bank, was believed to have stolen it. Because of that, he was

sent to prison. During the three years in prison, he learned to write short stories.

After he got out of prison, he went to New York and continued writing. He wrote

mostly about New York and the life of the poor there. People liked his stories,

because simple as the tales were, they would finish with a sudden change at the

end, to the reader’s surprise.

In the United States, it is not usual to telephone someone very early in the

morning. If you telephone him early in the morning, while he is shaving

（刮胡子）

or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important

and needs immediate

（立刻的）

attention. The same meaning is attached to

telephone calls made after 11:00 p. m. If someone receives a call during sleeping

hours, he thinks it’s a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call passes

on importance

（重要性）

.

In social life, time plays a very important part. In the USA guests will feel

they are not highly regarded if the invitation to dinner party is given only three

or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In the other

areas of the world , it may be considered foolish to make an appointment

（约会）

too early because plans which are made for a date more than a week away are

优秀学习资料

easily forgotten . The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world .Thus,

misunderstandings

（误解）

are caused

（引起）

. Promptness

（及时）

value

（价值）

in American life . 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 his sentence.

An Australian Boy in Beijing

809

West

Chang’an

Street

Beijing,

China

December 21, 2003

Dear Peter,

I’ve been here in Beijing for half a year now. Beijing is in the north of China,

so it’s quite cold in winter. It has just s

nowed twice here.

I’m going to have the first “White Christmas” in my life! It’s hard to believe,

isn’t it –

so warm in Australia and so cold here?

Thank you for the wonderful stamps! I’ve collected over 300 Chinese stamps

since I came here. I’m sen

ding some Monkey King stamps to you. I think you will

like them.

Now to answer some of your questions. Yes, I’m learning Chinese. Chinese is

quite a difficult language for me. Last time Mum asked for some quilts

（被子）

in

a shop. They showed her some cups

. Dad and I had a good laugh over that. I’ve

learned about 500 Chinese words. I can even write a little Chinese now. Have you

looked at the words on the Christmas card? I wrote them myself!

No, I’m not swimming. Instead, I’m learning to skate on real ice! I’ve had so

many falls that I’m black and blue all over. But I’m learning fast.

I’ve traveled to several places in south China with Mum and Dad since we

came to China. I’ve seen a lot of interesting things. I’ve made quite a few good

friends, too.

I have to finish the letter now. Ask Uncle John and Aunt Alice to bring you,

too, when they come in August, We’ll have a good time together then.

Yours,

Mike
