【C3】______this is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in【C4】______because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be【C5】______
The【C6】______of time differ in different parts of the world【C7】______misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that【C8】______time differently.
Promptness is much【C9】______in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully【C10】______. In the U.S. no one would think of【C11】______a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite.
When【C12】______meet, a person who is five minutes late is【C13】______to make a short apology.
If he is less than five minutes late, he will say a few words of【C14】______, though perhaps he will not【C15】______the sentence.
To Americans, forty minutes of waiting is the【C16】______of the "insult period". No matter 【C17】______is said in apology, there is little that can remove the【C18】______done by an hour’s wait.
【C19】______in some other countries, a forty minute waiting period was not unusual. Instead of being the very end of the【C20】______waiting scale, it was just the beginning.
【C14】
