Proverbs, sometimes called sayings, are examples of folk wisdom. They are little lessons which older people of a culture pass down to the younger people to teach them about life. [23]Many proverbs remind people of the values that are important in the culture. Values teach people how to act, what is right, and what is wrong. Because the values of each culture are different, understanding the values of another culture helps explain how people think and act. Understanding your own cultural values is important too. If you can accept that people from other cultures act according to their values, not yours, getting along with them will be much easier. [24]Many proverbs are very old. So some of the values they teach may not be as important in the culture as they once were. For example, Americans today do not pay much attention to the proverb "Haste makes waste", because patience is not important to them. But if you know about past values, it helps you to understand the present. And many of the older values are still strong today. Benjamin Franklin, a famous American diplomat, writer, and scientist, died in 1790, but his proverb "Time is money" is taken more seriously by Americans of today than ever before. [25]A study of proverbs from around the world shows that some values are shared by many cultures.
In many cases, though, the same idea is expressed differently.
23. Why are proverbs so important?
24. According to the speaker what happens to some proverbs with the passage of time?
25. What do we learn from the study of proverbs from around the world?
选项
A、She has more self-confidence than Chris.
B、She works with Chris in the same division.
C、She is competing with Chris for the new job.
D、She has more management experience than Chris.
答案
C
解析
短文提到克里斯知道还有另外一个人想要这份新工作,这个人就是Kim。很容易可以判断Kim也是这个岗位的竞争者,因此答案为C。A中的serf-confidence“自信”在短文中并未提及;短文提到Kim负责公司另一个部门的设备购买和维护,因此可以排除B;D中的more management experience“更多管理经验”,录音中没有提及。
