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 to begin at 10 a. m. and end at 12. 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 11a. 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; at a lunch with a friend and in university calls, 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 showed clearly lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. On the other hand, the average Brazilian student would be 33 minutes late.
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 also end at the scheduled time. In the Brazilian class, only a few students left the class at 12: 00; many remained past 12; 30 to discuss the class and ask more questions. Arriving late may not be very important in Brazil, neither is staying late.
The American professor studied the Brazilian students’behavior because________.
选项
A、he felt angry at the students’rudeness
B、he felt puzzled at the students’being late
C、he wanted to collect data for his research
D、he wanted to make students come on time later
答案
B
解析
这是一道考察细节的题型。文章第一段结尾处:“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.”可见教授对学生迟到而不道歉的行为有疑惑,所以决定进行研究,可见选项B符合题意。
