问题     As a foreigner doing business in the United States, I feel very rushed. I am used to friendly opening exchanges when doing business. Here in Chicago, things are different. There is no time for getting to know one another. This does not seem【B1】______to me. There is no chance to develop a sense of trust when people meet to talk over issues. There are no【B2】______like tea or coffee before discussing business, though this is a(n.【B3】______in my country. When we discuss business it starts with a(n.【B4】______chat. I think that it is important for business partners to get familiar with each other first and to feel relaxed. If the exchange is too【B5】______there is a risk that something will be forgotten. Some possibilities go without being【B6】______when there is too much pressure. I don’t believe this is the best strategy for proper communication. Besides, the 【B7】______is that they just don’t care about you as an individual here. You are basically just another【B8】______of making money.
    All of this used to create a real【B9】______for me. At first, it caused me to have as little【B10】______with American business partners as possible. Gradually, though, I have come to understand the cultural differences between our two countries. This has really helped me to feel more comfortable doing business here.
