For instance, it is the headquarters of UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization.The Seine River divides the city into two parts
34、. Thirty-two bridges cross this scenic river. The oldest and perhaps most well known is the Pont Neuf, which was built in the sixteenth century. The Sorbonne, a famous university, is located on the Left Bank(south side) of the river. The beautiful white church Sacre Coeur lies on top of the hill cal
35、led Montmartre on the Right Bank(north side) of the Seine.There are many other famous places in Paris, such as the famous museum the Louvre as well as the Cathedral of Notre Dame.

39、ssor discovered this 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 the scheduled time. Several arrived
40、 half an hour later. Few apologized 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. He
41、 found that if they had a lunch appointment with a friend, the average American student defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. However, the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.In an American university, classes not only begin at the scheduled time in th
42、e 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.

Pigs care a great deal about friends a
48、nd family and work hard to keep everyone in their life happy. Chinese people view the pig as a smart and prosperous animal.
