         An office meeting starts at 10 a.m.. Hans, a German, is already waiting at 9:55. Nathan, an American,
    arrives right at 10 o'clock. In the next five minutes a few others hurry in. But Raul, the visitor from Brazil,
    walks in at 10:30. He doesn't even think he's late. How different the understanding of time is around the world! Germans like arriving early. Americans plan to arrive just on time. Brazilians think it OK to be half an hour late.
         In 1884, a clock in Greenwich, England, set the standard (标准的) time around the world, which is known
    as GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). But it couldn't standardize (使标准化) when people will arrive for a 10 a.m. meeting.
         As people have different understanding of time, all cultures (文化) can be put into one of the two groups:
    time-oriented (导向的) and event-oriented. Time goes first in time-orient cultures. In event-orient culture,
    what happens is more important than when. Such knowledge is important for today's world travelers.
         Not understanding these different ideas about time can sometimes bring trouble. For example, American
    students often quickly exchange "how are you?" and "fine" as they rush to make class on time. But event-orient
    students see this exchange as impolite. Before they can say anything more than "fine", the American student
    has already hurried past them.
         What can the world traveler do to avoid (避免) such time-related trouble? Follow the age-old rule: When
    in Rome, do as the Romans do.
    1. If the school starts at 8:30 a.m., what time does your German friend probably arrive?
    A. Around 8:25 a.m.
    B. Right at 8:30 a.m.
    C. Around 9:00 a.m.
    D. After 9:00 a.m.
    2. Which of the following does not belong to the time-oriented culture?
    A. People care about time more than anything else.
    B. People don't really mind whether they are late.
    C. People often hurry past you with short greetings.
    D. Everything usually takes place at the planned time.
    3. What does the underlined sentence "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." mean in this passage?
    A. You should do everything as the Romans do when you go to Rome.
    B. You should do what the Romans tell you to if you are in Rome.
    C. You should know the time-idea of the local people and do as they do.
    D. You should do everything as the local people do when you are in a new place.
    4. Which of the following is true?
    A. People from different cultures have the same idea about time.
    B. It's quite usual for a time-oriented person to be late.
    C. Different understandings of time never bring any trouble.
    D. An event-oriented person may feel uncomfortable in the USA.
    5. Which of the following is the best title?
    A. Greenwich Mean Time
    B. How to Avoid Time-related Trouble
    C. Different Cultures, Different Understandings of Time

    Plan ahead．Get a wall calendar（日程表）．Mark the dates of important events such as tests．Set your own goals and follow them．When your calendar starts to fill，learn to say “no” to other activities until you ha4e reached your goal．
