A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment.
An unpunctual man, on the contrary, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. A lost thing may be found again, but the lost time can never be regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself. An unpunctual man is forever wasting and mismanaging his most valuable asset (财产) as well as others’. An unpunctual person is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, return calls or keep appointments promptly. But a man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows that he can not get through his huge amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every piece of work when it has to be attended to.
Failure to be punctual in keeping one’s appointments is the sign of disrespect towards others. If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all other guests waiting for him. Usually this will be regarded as a great disrespect to the host and all other guests present.
Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to doing one’s duty, whether public or private. Imagine how it would be if those who are put in charge of important tasks failed to be at their proper place at the appointed time. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual will never be trusted by his friends or fellow men.
The main difference between a punctual person and an unpunctual person is that a punctual person ________.
选项
A、has lots of appointments while an unpunctual one has few appointments
B、does everything at the right time while an unpunctual one seldom does so
C、has much time to do everything while an unpunctual one has little time to do anything
D、does everything ahead of time while an unpunctual one does everything behind schedule
答案
B
解析
根据第一段“A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time…”和第二段第一句“An unpunctual man, on the contrary, never does what he has to do at the proper time. ”可知,守时的人和不守时的人主要区别在于:守时的人习惯于按时做事,而不守时的人从不按时完成必须做的事。故选B。
