Narrator
Listen to part of a conversation between a student and a professor.
Mary Hi, Professor.
Professor Hi, Mary. What can I do for you?
Mary Ur... in class you talked about the advice on customs and protocol in many countries. I am still puzzled by the way people do things here in America. Um...for example, what should we say to the bereaved?
Professor You need not to say too many words, be solemn and respectful most of the time. A hug is all that is needed.
Mary How should one sit correctly at the table?
Professor The basic rule is to be natural, keep your posture straight and never rest your elbows on the table before or during dinner.
Mary Then, how should we set the table if we have guests?
Professor Centerpieces should be low so as not to interrupt the line of sight of the guests. The table should be set according to the style of food you’re serving and the degree of formality.
Mary Well, what precautions should be kept in mind when we pay a social call?
Professor You should be sensitive to the routines of your friends so that your visit does not become an imposition.
Mary How do we say good-bye?
Professor When we say good-bye, be brief and natural.
Mary Why is it important to be punctual?
Professor The lack of punctuality implies that we do not have consideration for other people’s time and displays selfish behavior. If you arrive late to a dinner, it can be a great inconvenience for your host.
Mary What are the usual practices for giving and receiving presents?
Professor Giving a present is a sign of affection, gratitude, or friendship. The present should be unique yet appropriate and should fall within your financial means. A distinction should be made between the gifts we give to friends and those we give to professional colleagues.
Mary How do you converse properly?
Professor When talking to someone, you should look at him or her straight in the eyes. Speak in a language that will be understood by everyone present. Remember: a good conversationalist is one that makes those around him feel comfortable and eager to engage in conversation.
Mary [Leaving]
Oh, I think I’m clear on that now. Thank you. Bye!
Professor My pleasure! Bye!

C、Arriving late is an inconvenience for your host.
D、Punctuality is considered as a quality of one’s personality.
答案
C
解析
本题为细节题,考查考生理解并记住对话中明确表述的细节或事实的能力。题目问:为什么守时很重要?解答本题的关键句为:“The lack of punetuality implies that we do not have consideration for other people’s time and displays selfish behavior.If you arrive late to a dinner,itcan be a great inconvenience for your host(不守时意味着我们自私,不考虑别人的时间。如果你赴宴迟到,会给主人造成诸多不便)”。由此得出选项C(不守时会造成主人的不便)为正确答案。选项A(如果客人守时,可以帮助主人招待其他客人)、选项B(来得越早,吃的食物越多)和选项D(守时被认为是人的一种品质)文章中均未提及,因此不予选择。
