Gestures aren’t the only area in which the unwary traveler can get tripped up. Foreign cultures greatly influence different business customs and behavior. For example; Caffeine junkies should restrain themselves in the Middle East. " Three cups of tea or coffee are usually the polite limit in offices and during social calls," counsels "Travel Pak", a free publication of Alia, the Royal Jordanian Airline. "But if your host keeps going, you may also continue sipping. If you’ve had your fill, give your empty cup a quick wiggle—as you hand it back. That means ’ No more, thank you.
Middle East visitors should also not be surprised " if others break into the office in the middle of your conversation" , notes "Travel Pak". An old Arab custom calls for keeping an "open office". The British, however, consider it impolite to interrupt a visitor, even after all business has been transacted. The commercial caller is expected to be sensitive to this point, know when to stop, and initiate his or her own departure. In Japan certain guests at evening business gatherings will leave early. They should be allowed to leave without saying goodbyes. The Japanese consider formal departures to be disruptive in such cases and disturbing to the remaining guests. In Finland business guests may be asked to take off their clothes and join their hosts in a sauna. The invitation is a sign that a good working relationship has been established.
In the Arab world, the word "no" must be mentioned three times before it is accepted. In contrast, it is considered good business manners to make many and long efforts to pick up the check. In China, gift giving is considered an insult, says Patrick J. Lewis, President of Club Universe, a Los Angeles tour operator. "If you want to give someone a gift, make sure it’s modest in value. This will not be considered offensive, but it may be declined. " The Chinese manner of expressing friendship and welcome is to clap. Lewis adds, "You may be greeted with clapping when entering a factory, hospital, commune, or school. Politeness dictates that you respond with applause, even, though it may seem like you’re clapping for yourself."
In the Middle East, it is considered___________.
选项
A、impolite to drink at least three cups of coffee
B、impolite to drink more than three cups of coffee unless your host drinks more
C、polite to ask the host to give you as much as he can
D、polite to leave a party as early as you want
答案
B
解析
根据第一段第四、五句“Three cups of tea or coffer are usually the polite limit…if your host keeps going,you may also continue sipping.”可知,三杯咖啡或茶是礼貌的范围,也就是说,一般情况下,如果超过了三杯就会被视为不礼貌。但是如果主人继续喝了,你也可以继续喝。故选B。
