Promptness is important in American business, academic, and social settings. The importance of punctuality is taught to young children in school. Tardy slips and the use of bells signal to the child that punctuality and time itself are to be respected. People who keep appointments are considered dependable. If people are late to job interviews, appointments, or classes, they are often viewed as unreliable and irresponsible. In the business world, "time is money" and companies may fine their executives for tardiness to business meetings. Of course it is not always possible to be punctual. Social and business etiquette also provides rules for late arrivals. Calling on the telephone if one is going to be more than a few minutes late for scheduled appointments is considered polite and is often expected. Keeping a date of a friend waiting beyond ten to twenty minutes is considered rode. On the other hand, arriving thirty minutes late to some parties is acceptable.
Social etiquette in the United States allows people to ______.
选项
A、be a few minutes late for interviews
B、be up to a half-hour late for some parties
C、keep a friend waiting for less than 30 minutes
D、come a few minutes earlier to any appointment
答案
B
解析
本题的关键是将4个选项的内容与短文中的依据句分别进行比较。如果与依据句意思不一致或者找不到依据句,这个选项就不是正确答案。B选项的意思与短文中最后一个句子完全、致,所以是正确答案。
