Many Americans are turning to Japan, they think, a country of high academic achievement and economic success, for possible answers.However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find.In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction.In one survey, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education.Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents (答问卷者) listed “to give children a good start academically” as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools.In contrast, over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices.To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese preschools do not teach reading, writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as determination, concentration, and the ability to work as a member of a group.The huge majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.
Like in America, there is diversity (多样性) in Japanese early childhood education.Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential development.In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schools.Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children’s chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated(一流的) schools and universities.Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing (智能化) in some Japanese kindergartens.

A.Japanese parents are more involved in preschool education than American parents
B.Japan’s economic success is a result of its scientific achievements

D.Japan’s higher education is superior to theirs
2.In Japan’s preschool education, the focus is on .
A.preparing children academically B.developing children’s artistic interests

3.Why do some Japanese parents send their children to university-based kindergartens?
A.They can do better in their future studies.
B.They can make more group experience grow there.
C.They can be self-centered when they grow up.
D.They can have better chances of getting a first-rate education.
4.Free play has been introduced in some Japanese kindergartens in order to .

What is time? Is it a thing to be saved or spent or wasted, like money? Or is it something we have no control over, like the weather? Is it the same all over the world? That’s an easy question, you say.Wherever you go, a minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes, a day is 24 hours, and so forth.Well, maybe.But in America, time is more than that.Americans see time as a valuable resource.Maybe that’s why they are fond of the expression, “Time is money.”
Because Americans believe time is a limited resource, they try to keep and manage it.People in the US often attend conferences or read books on time management.It seems they all want to organize their time better.Professionals carry around pocket planners(计划书) — some in electronic form — to keep track of appointments and deadlines.People do all they can to press more life out of their time.
To Americans, punctuality is a way of showing respect for other people’s time.Being more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology, and maybe an explanation.People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay.Of course, the less formal the situation, the less important it is to be exactly on time.At informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed time.But they usually don’t try that at work.
American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others.When people plan an event, they often set time days or weeks in advance.Once the time is fixed, it takes almost an emergency to change it.If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient.Only very close friends will just “drop by” unannounced.Also, people hesitate to call others late at night for fear they might be in bed.The time may vary, but most folks think twice about calling after 10:00 pm.
Even Americans would admit that no one can master time.Time, like money, slips all too easily through our finger.And time, like the weather, is very hard to predict.However, time is one of life’s most precious gifts.
1.The main idea of the passage is _______.
A.time is money B.different attitude toward time in the world
C.how to save time D.how Americans treat time
2.In the fourth paragraph, the writer mainly tells us that _________.
A.Americans respect others’ time in daily life
B.Americans seldom call after 10:00
C.Americans inform before paying a visit to their friends
D.when planning an event, Americans usually fix time ahead of time
3.The underlined phrase “think twice” (in Paragraph 4) probably means “_______ “.
A.think for a second time B.be careful
C.be afraid D.pay attention
4.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A.Americans like time better than anything else
B.generally speaking, Americans respect their time
C.on the whole, Americans treasure their time
D.Americans consider their time is difficult to master and predict
