In the United States, it is not usual to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone
him early in the day, while he is taking a shower or having breakfast, the time of the call shows the matter
is very important and requires attention at once. If someone receives a call after 11:00 pm, he thinks it is
a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
In social life, time plays a very important part. In the USA, guests will feel they are not highly
regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is only three or four days before the party date. But it is not
true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment
too early because plans that are made for a date more than a week away will be forgotten. The meaning
of time is different in different parts of the world. Therefore, misunderstandings appear between people
from different cultures that treat time differently. Being on time is thought of highly in American life. If
people are not on time, they may be regarded as impolite. In the USA, keeping business companies
waiting for an hour is too impolite. A person is expected to say sorry when he is 5 minutes late. lf he is
less than 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the
sentence.

| I've got some information for everyone going to Britain next month. As you know, you'll be staying with a family for two weeks. Now the most important thing is money. You should take about ￡30 in cash (现金) and about ￡200 in traveler cheques (支票). Then when you arrive at the airport you'll be met by our host family. You must remember to wear a red shirt so the family will find you easily. I've told them to look out for the red shirts. You'll also need to take with you 4 photos of your-self and, of course, it's very important that you take the school letter. While you are there, if you have any problems, you can call our agent (代理人). I'll give you her office phone number now: It's 580-4436 and the person to ask for is Mrs. Belcher, that's B-E-L-C-H-E-R. She's in the office from 9 a.m-5 p.m. every day. OK! That's everything. Have a good trip. | ||||||||||||||
