　　In the United States, it is important to be on time, or punctual, for an appointment, a class, a meeting, etc. However, this may not be true in all countries. An American professor discovered this difference while teaching a class in a Brazilian university. The two-hour class was scheduled (制定) to begin at 10 a. m and end at 12 a. m. On the first day, when the professor arrived on time, no one was in the classroom Many students came after 10 a. m. Several arrived after 10:30 a. m. Two students came after 11 a. m. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologized for their lateness. Were these students being rude? He decided to study the students' behavior.

　　The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both an informal and a formal situation: lunch with a friend and in a university class, respectively. He gave them an example and asked them how they would react. If they had a lunch appointment with a friend, the average American student defined (定義) lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. On the other hand, the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.

　　In an American university, students are expected to arrive at the appointed hour. In contrast, in Brazil, neither the teacher nor the students always arrive at the appointed hour. Classes not only begin at the scheduled time in the United States, but they also end at the scheduled time. In the Brazilian class, only a few students leave the class at noon; many remain past 12:30 to discuss the class and ask more questions. While arriving late may not be very important in Brazil, neither is staying late.

　　The explanation for these differences isn't simple. People from Brazilian and North American cultures have different feelings about lateness. In Brazil, the students believe that a person who usually arrives late is probably more successful than a person who is always on time. In fact, Brazilians expect a person with high social position to arrive late, while in the United States lateness is usually considered to be disrespectful and unacceptable. As a result, if a Brazilian is late for an appointment with a North American, the American may misread the reason for the lateness and become angry.

　　As a result of his study, the professor learned that the Brazilian students were not being disrespectful to him. Instead, they were simply behaving in the appropriate (合適的) way for a Brazilian student in Brazil. In the end, the professor was able to change his own behavior so that he could feel comfortable in the new culture.

(1) What is the main idea of the passage?

[　　]

A．Lateness is a way of disrespect.

B．It is important to be on time for class.

C．The importance of being on time differs among cultures.

D．People should learn the importance of time when they are children.

(2) Why did the professor study the Brazilian students' behavior?

[　　]

A．To make the students polite.

B．To make the students come to class on time.

C．To understand why the students came late.

D．To change his own behavior.

(3) Which of the following is right according to the passage?

[　　]

A．Most North Americans think a person who is late is disrespectful.

B．Few American students leave immediately after the class is finished.

C．In a Brazilian class, the students leave immediately after the class is finished.

D．As a result of the study, the professor changed the Brazilian students' behavior.

(4) What do you think will happen according to the passage?

[　　]

A．An American host will feel unhappy if a guest arrives at the party 20 minutes late.

B．An American student will think he is more successful if he is late for class.

C．A Brazilian guest will say sorry to the host if he is 20 minutes late.

D．A Brazilian teacher will go on with his class after the ending time.

Makoto、Mr. Zheng、Mr. Zhu、Jack 和Xiao Wang 正在廣州尋找合適的餐廳，第61-65題是對(duì)他們個(gè)人情況的介紹。閱讀下列餐廳的信息(A、B、C、D、E、F)，選出符合他們各人需要的最佳選擇。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)是多余的。
【小題1】Makoto is a Japanese tourist who has stayed in Guangzhou for a few days. He wants to make a tour of North China but unfortunately he has no time. So he would like to find a restaurant where he can taste northern food and experience the life in the north.
【小題2】Mr. Zheng was born in Hunan but went to Japan at an early age. This time he came to Guangzhou to deal with some business affairs. Coming back to his homeland after being away for about 20 years, he hopes to find a restaurant serving food of his home town.
【小題3】It is the first time for Mr. Zhu, who comes from the northeast of China, to visit Guangdong Province. He is interested in traditional Cantonese food and Cantonese lifestyle.
【小題4】 Jack is a successful businessman. He is flying to Guangzhou to meet some people, who are likely to sign a contract with him. He wants to find a high quality restaurant. Of course, it is the quality rather than the price that he cares about.
【小題5】 Xiao Wang, a migrant worker in Guangzhou, plans to hold a party with his 10 friends. All of them are fond of the Sichuan cuisine. Xiao Wang hopes to spend less than 600 yuan for the dinner.

A
Nanhai Yucun Restaurant
Founded in 1986, Nanhai Yucun Restaurant has always been one of the gourmets’ choices in Guangzhou.
Prices are high, but so is the quality. Just look at the gust list; the King and Queen of Spain, South Korea’s Prime Minister and his wife have eaten here, along with lots of local famous people.
 
B
Dongbeiren
Dongbeiren is meant for northerners. The decoration is basically red—from the paper cuts and the curtains to the Kang (a bed with a table where people can sit comfortably without shoes and with their legs folded). It is perhaps a way to remind the northerners of home or for other people to get in touch with the north. 
 
C
Taotaoju Restaurant
Taotaoju Restaurant is one of Guangzhou’s most well-known traditional Cantonese restaurants, located in a historic building in the heart of the city’s Xiguan District.
You can’t get any more traditional Guangzhou than this, which is a great place for dim sum and seafood. You haven’t lived in Guangzhou until you’ve eaten dim sum in a true local place like Taotaoju. It’s also a popular spot for parties.
 
D
Chongqing Xiaodongtian Restaurant
It’s one of the top Sichuan cuisine restaurants in Guangzhou, featuring Chongqing flavor.
It is a group of chain restaurants in Guangzhou. The food is Sichuan style, but the decoration and surroundings are a bit old.
Like most Sichuan restaurants, the pleasant smell of their traditional hot pot spreads throughout the whole place.
Food here is medium-priced, around 50 RMB per person.
 
E
Maojia Reastaurant
Maojia Reastaurant is a local favorite for strong-flavored Hunan dishes.
It has a strong cultural atmosphere related to Chairman Mao and also introduces Maojia dishes characteristic of tasty Hunan local flavors, which are a bit softer than the traditional Hunan flavor.
 
F
Enmi Japanese Reastaurant
The decoration here is beautiful and peaceful.
A small “courtyard of bamboo” is refreshing while the space between tables is large and comfortable. The diverse sashimi (raw fish slices) is a must-try here.
The food, however, is served slow and the regulated tow hours for ordering is strange.
