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 the difference while teaching a class in a Brazilian(巴西的) 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 10:30 A.M. Two students came after 11 A.M. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologized(道歉)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 a university class, 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 defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. On the other hand, the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.
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. While arriving late may not be very important in Brazil , neither is staying late.
24.The word ‘punctual’ most probably means________. A. leaving soon after class C. arriving a few minutes late
B. coming early D. being on time
C. MSN: Recreation & Entertainment.
25.Why did the professor study the Brazilian students’ behavior?
A. He felt puzzled at the students’ being late. B.He felt angry at the students' rudeness.
C.He wanted to make the students come on time later. D.He wanted to collect data for one of his studies.
26.It can be inferred from the professor’s study of lateness in the informal situation that __________.
A.American students will become impatient if their friend is five minutes late B.neither Brazilian nor American students like being late in social gatherings C.being late in one culture may not be considered so rude in another culture D.Brazilian students will not come thirty-three minutes after the agreed time 27.What is the main idea of this passage?
A.It is important to be on time for class in the United States. B.The importance of being on time differs among cultures.
C.People learn the importance of time only from their own culture.
D.Students being late for class should explain the reason to their teacher.

Lebanese filmmaker Nadine Labaki has become the first female artist in the Arab world to be nominated (提名)for an Academy Award ,or Oscar.
Labaki directed the film Capernaum ,a film about a Syrian refugee (难民)boy and a Kenyan baby who live without parents on the streets of Beirut. It was nominated for best foreign language film.
Labaki wil1 be one of the few female directors to compete for an Oscar this year. She told the Associated press, “I wish there were a lot more women filmmakers this year represented, nominated in the Oscars. But I am sure in a few years we won't be having this problem anymore.”
Unlike in the West, women filmmakers are industry leaders in Lebanon.
Capernaum received a 15-minute standing ovation (热烈欢迎)at this year's Cannes
Film Festival. It won the Jury Prize—the third-highest award given at Cannes.
The United Nations has publicly praised the film. Lebanon's Foreign Minister said Capernaum put a Lebanese touch on the international film industry.
The Oscar nomination of Capernaum is the second for Lebanon in two years in the
