你有没有觉得每周工作40个小时真是太他妈多了?那你在看到美国这边的工作周降到了什么程度之后,会吃上一惊。至少,美国的情形和旧欧洲世界完全不同。美国的上班(时间)标准更为宽松。而且我们的文化相信,享受假期和把时间花在养家糊口上是非常可贵的!
Sales Tax
销售税
Europeans think it’s totally bizarre that the price of an item in a store isn’t what they’ll be charged at checkout. Of course, Europeans pay homage to the tax man in ways that Americans would feel is bizarre, too.
欧洲人在看到美国商店中物品的价格和他们在收银台为其支付的价格不一致时,觉得这太奇怪了。当然,欧洲人敬重纳税人这点也让美国人无法理解。
How Are You Doing?
你好呀!
You probably noticed that Europeans have completely awesome words for saying ‘Hello!’ But, whens the last time you said ‘hello’ to anyone? You say things like: ‘What’s up?’, ‘How are you?’, ‘What’s the haps?’ At any rate, we don’t mean those as actual questions; Europeans think that we do.
你也许注意到欧洲人说“你好!”真的有许多不错的词,然而(作为美国人的)你上次用“Hello”和人打招呼是何时?你会用“What’s up?”,“How are you?”,“What’s the haps?”问好。不管怎样,我们说的这些都不是真的在提问。可欧洲人却会这么认为。
