英语翻译
In the United States,it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning.If you telephone him early in the day,while he is shaving or having breakfast,the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention.The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m.If someone receives a call during sleeping hours,he assumes(想当然地认为)it's a matter of life and death.The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
In social life,time plays a very important part.In the U.S.A.guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the attention to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date.But it is not true in all countries.In other areas of the world,it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten.The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world.Thus,misunderstandings arise(产生) between people from cultures that treat time differently.Promptness is valued highly in American life,for example.If people are not prompt,they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible.In the U.S.no one would think if keeping a business associate waiting for an hour.It would be too impolite.A person who is 5 minutes late is expected to make a short apology.
这个如果翻译的好了
加油加油!
按照美国的习俗,早上不应该太早给别人打电话.如果你在早上别人正在吃早餐的时候打电话过去,一般都表示有很重要紧急的事情.还有就是过了晚上11点也不能打.如果对方在睡觉的时候接到了电话,他会理所当然的认为是谁去世了.所以打电话的时间是很重要的.
在社交生活中,时间的角色很重要.在美国,如果客人在一个聚会的3-4天才收到邀请,他们就会觉得自己没有受到高度重视.但并不是所有国家都这样.在世界的其他地方,可能太早和别人订好约会时间会被看成很愚蠢的事情.因为人们觉得太早约定到最后很容易忘掉.在不同的国家,时间的意义是不同的,人们对不同时间的意义有不同的理解.在美国,守时是尊重对方的表现.例如,如果你没有按时到,那么对方会觉得你没有礼貌或者缺少责任感.同样在美国没有人会为了谈一桩生意等上一个小时,那简直太没礼貌了.一般人要是迟到了五分钟,都要略微道歉示意的.
