There are two kinds of people in the world and I’m one of them. I’m the kind of person who likes to be on time for things. In fact, I like to be early. Let’s say, I need to catch a flight which is leaving at 4 p.m. Usually, I am at the gate, ticket out, ready to go no later than 7:14 a. m. My wife is the other kind of person. For her, the ideal way to catch a plane would be to arrive at the airport as the plane was taking off.
Part of this is a cultural difference. I grew up in Wasp that is white Anglo-Saxon protestant household and my wife grew up in a Cuban household. Wasps tend to follow schedule strictly; Cubans tend to be more relaxed. If a Wasp wedding is scheduled to start at 2 p.m Saturday, the wedding march will start at 2 p.m. sharp and the bride would come down the aisle at 2:03 no matter what, even if the originally scheduled groom has bailed out and the bribe has to use an emergency back-up groom taken right off the street. Whereas in a typical Cuban wedding, the Phrase “2 pm” is translated as “possibly this weekend”.
But the difference between my wife and me is not totally cultural. I think it is also gender-related. I believe that men and women do not view the time the same way. I think that in general, women think there is more time in the universe than men do.
21. What is the talk mainly about?
22. What kind of person is the speaker?
23. If a Wasp wedding is scheduled to start at 2 p.m, what time then would the bribe come down the aisle?
24. How would a Wasp family react if the originally scheduled groom has bailed out?
25. Which of the following is not mentioned as a reason for the difference between the couple?
选项
A、Cultural difference.
B、Gender-related difference.
C、Ethnical difference.
D、Social rank.
答案
D
解析
录音讲到对于时间的观念不同是a cultural difference,这其中就包括民族因素,录音最后还指出这同样也是gender—related。
