In ancient times, a king had a big stone placed on a roadway. He wanted to see if anyone would move the stone out of the way. Some of the king's richest business men and courtiers (朝臣) came by and just walked around it.
Many people even loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear, but none of them did anything about getting the stone out of the way. They just complained and went away.
A farmer then came along carrying a large bag of vegetables. When getting closer to the stone the farmer laid down his bag and tried to push the stone out of the road. After trying and pushing for long time, he finally. succeeded.
After the farmer went back to pick up his vegetables, he noticed a wallet lying in the road where the stone had been. In the wallet there were many gold coins and a note from the king explaining that the gold was for the person who moved the stone from the roadway.
If you were on the way, what would you do? Complain it or move it away?

A)閱讀下面短文,并根據所讀內容,在文章后的空格里填入一個最恰當的單詞。注意:每個空格只填1個單詞。
Nowadays, many people in China and Japan are racing against time. They put a lot of value in “being on time”. However, in some countries of the world, people have different opinions on “being on time”.
Germany
Thanks to its industrial past, in Germany you are expected to arrive at least ten minutes earlier for any planned meeting. In Germany, being on time is risky enough because your hosts will probably already be there waiting, wondering how on earth you could be so stupid. What will you do if anything unexpected happens, like heavy traffic or a sudden rain? So remember to arrive early in Germany.
Saudi Arabia
Some countries care little about time and Saudi Arabia is one of them. It’s because of their long history of desert living where time is not the first thing to think about. It could be that it’s too hot to do anything on time. So don’t expect them to be on time. Moreover, looking at your watch during an event is even considered as bad manners. So don’t get angry with them, either.
Ghana
Most meeting times can be changed, even if an exact time is given. Ghanaians are very easygoing. They think that if everyone is late, then no one is late. After all, what can’t be done today can get done tomorrow. If you find it difficult to deal with, prepare to be unhappy.
Russia
Patience is considered a very important quality in Russian culture but being on time is not. When doing business in Russia, do be on time. Otherwise, it will be considered disrespectful. But Russians won’t hold themselves to the same standard. So, again, patience can be key.
