Like every language, American English is full of special expressions, phrases that come from the
day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way. Our expression today is "to face the music".
When someone says,"well, I guess I"ll have to face the music," it does not mean he"s planning to go
to the concert. It is something far less pleasant, like being called in by your boss to explain why you did
this and did that, and why you didn"t do this or that. Sour music indeed, but it has to be faced. At
sometime or another, every one of us has had to face the music, especially as children. We can all
remember father"s angry voice,"I want to talk to you." and only because we did not obey him. What an
unpleasant business it was!
The phrase "to face the music" is familiar to every American, young and old. It is at least 00 years old.
And where did this expression come from? The first explanation comes from the American novelist,
James Fenimore Looper. He said, in 85, that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the
wings to go on the stage. When they got their cue to go on, they often said, "Well, it"s time to face the
music." And that was exactly what they did - facing the orchestra which was just below them. And an
actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that might be
friendly or perhaps hostile, especially if he forgot his lines. But he had to go out. If he did not, there would
be no play. So the expression "to face the music" come to mean "having to go through something, no matter
how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice."
Other explanations about the expression go back to the army. When the men faced an inspection by
their leader, the soldiers would be worried about how well they looked. Was their equipment clean, shinny
enough to pass the inspection? Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band as well as the
inspection. What else could they do?
Another army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and accepting the
responsibility for something that should not have been done. As, for example, when a man is forced out
of the army because he did something terrible, he is dishonored. The band does not play. Only the drums
tap a sad, slow beat. The soldier is forced to leave, facing such music as it is and facing the back of his
horse.
A.1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4
B. To face the stage.
C. To face the back of one"s horse.
D. To face one"s leader.
B. When we are making a speech.
C. When we are having a party.
D. When we are talking with somebody.
B. useless
C. unkind
D. unnecessary
border, Monaco is not part of France, but a separate principality (大公国)-though it is surrounded by
its great neighbour.
Monaco became a principality in the 16th century after being owned by a family member of a certain
Italian king. The French and Italian, however, soon came to protect it one after another until 1861, when
it became its own master again.
Facing the blue Mediterranean (地中海), Monaco is mainly made up of two cities, Monaco, where
the palace for the Prince stands, and Monte Carlo, which is a wonderful place for visitors. Every year,
about half a million people come to Monaco, nearly 25 tiroes as much as its population.
Believe it or not, Monaco has no soldiers or policemen of its own. Law and order is kept by the
French police, and the French stand for it in its foreign affairs, even the money used in Monaco is the
franc, too.
(Mc=Monaco, Fr==France, I=Italy, Md=Mediterranean)
2. Monaco has a population of ____.
B. no more than 20 thousand
C. about 12,500 thousand
D. a little over 20 thousand
B. Monaco isn"t a completely independent country.
C. A principality is a country ruled by foreigners.
D. Monaco belongs to France since law and order is kept by the French police.
B. a French
C. a prince
D. a president
and Australia are mobile and very open, people here change jobs and move house quite often. As a result,
they have a lot of relationships that often last only a short time. So it"s normal to have friendly conversations
with people that they have just met, and you can talk about things that other cultures would regard as personal.
On the other hand there are more crowded and less mobile societies where long-term relationships are
more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person will want to get to know you very well before he
or she feels happy to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much
deeper than it would in a mobile society.
To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger
from a less mobile society put it, it"s no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all
about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you don"t want to answer.
Cross-cultural differences aren"t just a problem for travelers, but also for the flights that carry them. All
flights want to provide the best service, but ideas about good service are different place to place. This can be
seen most clearly in the way that problems are dealt with.
Some societies have "universalist" cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every
person and situation in basically the same way. "Particularist" societies, on the other hand, also have rules,
but they are less important than the society"s unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular
situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the
importance of the person.
This difference can cause problems. A traveler from a particularist society, India, is checking in for a
flight in Germany, a country which has a universalist culture. The Indian traveler has too much luggage,
but he explains that he has been away from home for a long time and the suitcases are full of presents for
his family. He expects that the check-in official will understand his problem and will change the rules for
him. The check-in official explains that if he was allowed to have too much luggage, it wouldn"t be fair to
the other passengers. But the traveler thinks this is unfair, because the other passengers don"t have his
problem.
B. easy to communicate with
C. difficult to make real friends
D. have a long-term relationship with their neighbors
her, and asking him or her questions.
B. friendly
C. normal
D. rough
B. people obey the society"s rules completely
C. no one obeys the society"s rules though they have
D. the society"s rules can be changed with different persons or situations
because of different ______.
B. cultures
C. habits and customs
D. ways of life
countries. On Christmas Eve, people usually tell their children to put their stockings at the end of their
beds before they go to sleep. Children believe Santa Claus, with the other name of Father Christmas,
will come during the night and fill their stockings with Christmas presents.
Actually (实际上), Father Christmas is children"s father. He dresses up in a red coat and waits until
children fall asleep. Then he goes into children"s bedrooms, and puts small presents in their stockings.
