Question

【題目】閱讀下面的短文。將劃線部分譯成英文或中文。

Where I’m from, we’re pretty relaxed about time. We don’t like to rush around, so we don’t mind if people are a little late sometimes. If you tell a friend you’re going to their house for dinner, it’s OK if you arrive a bit late. 1.______________________________________（我們喜歡慢慢享受我們的時間）。2. We value the time we spend with our family and friends in our everyday lives. We often just drop our friends’ homes if we have time. We don’t usually have to make plans to meet our friends. When we see each other, it’s polite for boys to shake hands and for girls to kiss each other on the side of the face. We often just walk around the town center, seeing as many of our friends as we can!

In Svitzerland3._________________________________（守時是很重要的）。We are the capital of clocks and watches after all! 4. If someone invites you to meet him or her at noon, then you’re expected to be there at noon. If you’re even 15 minutes late, your friends may get mad. So I make an effort to be on time when I meet my friends. 5. I always leave the house early to avoid heavy traffic because I think it’s impolite to keep others waiting. Also, we never visit a friend’s house without calling first. We almost always make plans to see friends. We usually plan to do something interesting, or go somewhere together.

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文，主要講了生活在哥倫比亞和瑞士的人對時間觀念的不同態(tài)度。在哥倫比亞去朋友的家吃晚飯晚一點到也沒關(guān)系。但是在瑞士，按時到達是很重要的。

【1】like to do sth喜歡做某事，enjoy享受，故答案為We like to enjoy our time slowly。

【2】value the time 珍惜時間。本句是一個定語從句，we spend with our family and friends in our everyday lives是用來修飾time的，故答案為我們珍惜每天和家人朋友在一起的時間。

【3】it’s important to do sth做某事是重要的，on time準時；守時。故答案為it’s very important to be on time。

【4】invite sb to do sth邀請某人做某事；be expected to do sth被期待做某事，故答案為如果某個人在中午邀請你去見他或她，那么你應(yīng)該中午到那里。

【5】it’s impolite to do sth做某事是不禮貌的；keep sb doing sth讓某人持續(xù)做某事。故答案為我總是早早離開家以避開擁擠的交通。因為我覺得讓別人等太不禮貌了。
