22、t say, “Oh, youre a pig!” Most Westerners will be understanding. They will be sure that you made some kind of a mistake. However, dont take any chances.

26、ingers of the twentieth century , Ella Fitzgerald, has made several different styles of her own. She was born in Virginia but was brought up in Yonkers, New York. Chick Webb noticed her in a competition when she was sixteen. He asked her to sing with his band(乐队) , and when he died in 1939, she took
27、 over.Unlike Besie Smith, Ella Fitzgerald taught herself the sentimental music so popular in the 1930ssongs like “My Heart Belongs to Daddy”- and her recordings became best sellers. During the 1940s she developed her own “scat singing”, for songs like “Flying Home” and “Lady Be good”.Ella Fitzgerald
28、 was the perfect musical partner for her friend, the trumpets(号手) Louis Armstrong, matching him in warmth and artistry. “ I just like music,” she has said“To me, its a story.

31、ed 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 call
32、s made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes(想当然地认为)its 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 th
33、e 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 f
34、orgotten. 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 respon
35、sible. 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.

40、atch too much television. I am certainly watching too many of his programs. They can really be difficult to understand as they force you to think hard about the mysteries of life.
