英语翻译
Called to a staff meeting by his principal,Stan Brown from New Zealand reviewed the materials on a mathematics curriculum development project that he wished to see incorporated into the high school at which he taught.Stan had been teaching in the Philippines for two years and was enjoying his sojourn at this international school in Manila.Jose,who had developed a close relationship with Stan,was also asked to the meeting.The principal asked Stan to discuss his proposal,the content of which was already known to the others at the meeting.Only slight mddifications were necessary.It was agreed to take the next step toward possible implementation.Since thes had taken less time than expected,the principal asked Jose to say a few words about the curriculum development project he was working on.Again,most of the people at the meeting knew of this project.While Jose gave hes project outline,Stan asked some difficult questions that forced Jose to thind on hes feet and to defend some of hes earlier assumptions.After the meeting,Jose told Stan that he could not meet him for dinner as earlier planned.Stan was puzzled by Jose’s cancellation.
\x05Which of the following tells the true reason about Jose’s cancellation of the dinner party?
Jose will go to the library for more materials so he could better explain his proposal in the future.
Jose is jealous that Stan’s proposal was approved.
Jose thought that Stan’s actions during the meeting were not those of a true friend.
The principal asked Jose to reconsider his proposal.
Comment:In New Zealand,a friend can openly provide constructive criticism.Stan took this for granted,as it is a common practice among Westerner.In fact,if Stan did not make such suggestions to a friend in hes country (these suggestions are helpful in the long rerm),the friend would be angry that Stan did not help him when he had the chance.In the Philippines,however,a person cannot be a friend and a critic at the same time,or at least not in public.If Stan had made those suggestions to Jose privately,most likely,Jose would not have harbored such a hostile feeling toward him.Therefore,Stan should find some other way to voice his comments,that is ,way acceptable to the Filippinos(including the southeastern Asians).

omg, all search-engined translation works listed above! how to score 'Web'? haha.apparently, the first sentence says:被校长叫去参加一个员工会议的时候,来自新西兰的斯坦正在翻阅关於一项数学课程开发计划的材料.而斯坦本人也希望看到这项课程开发计划能够在其任教的该校得到适用.and the next continuing: 斯坦在菲律宾任教已经两年了并且也一直很享受在这家马尼拉国际学校任职期间的生活状态.and then:何塞,这位和斯坦关系很铁的同事,也被要求参加该会议.校长请斯坦谈谈他的项目计划,而与会的各位对该计划内容也大致瞭解.故只需做一些细微的修改.大家一致认同可对下一步的操作可行性进行讨论.由於此项环节比预期的用时要短,故校长让何塞也谈谈他的课程开发计划.同样,与会多数也瞭解这个计划.在何塞提出他的计划方案时,斯坦给何塞提出了一些非常尖锐的问题、迫使何塞不得不找出更合理的理由对其提出的某些假设进行辩解.会後,何塞告诉斯坦他不能如约和他共进晚餐.这让斯坦一头雾水.
.questions come: Which of the following tells the true reason about Jose’s cancellation of the dinner party?
以下哪项才是何塞取消晚餐约定的真正原因?
Jose thought that Stan’s actions during the meeting were not those of a true friend.
何塞认为斯坦在会上的言行不是一个真正的朋友该有的言行.
（原因在COMMENTS里,因为东西文化差异,新西兰人认为直接、诚实的批评或者指出朋友的不足之处,是朋友之间应有的真诚品德；而东南亚（其实黄种人应该都这样吧）人不可以接受一方面对你友善而另一方面对你严厉的朋友、尤其在大庭广众之下更不可接受.好了就翻括号以外的这麼多吧,应该中学生的吧.还是要自己多用心学哦）
