Question

11．There are few habits as annoying as someone making us wait．However，some punctually-challenged people have no intention of offending anyone．They still want to keep friends，family and bosses happy．They are often painfully aware and ashamed of the damage their lateness could do to their relationships，reputations，careers and finances．
Johnson，a doctor in New York，says his reputation for being unpunctual can sometimes be attributed to a misunderstanding of opinion．"A friend will ask me to come over，and he'll say'come anytime from seven．'But if I do turn up at eight or later，he will be annoyed．"
Joanna a teacher in London，for whom the most distressing thing is writing school reports，never makes the deadline for herself．"I always spend weeks carefully considering everything about the reports，"she says，"just for fear that any error arises．"

【写作内容】
1．用约30个单词为以上材料撰写概要；
2．用约120个单词发表你的观点，内容包括：
（1）退到带来的不良影响（至少两点）；
（2）给Johnson和Joanna提出你的建议，至少两条．
【写作要求】
1．写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句；
2．作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称；
3．不必写标题．
Different countries adopt different tolerance towards one's lateness．Actually，some people are late not deliberately but because they misunderstand others'opinions or pay too much attention to details．
As we all know，frequent lateness will have negative effects on one's daily life．On the one hand，unpunctual people tend to leave a bad impression on those who have made the appointment with them．Others usually regard being punctual as a sign of keeping the promise．On the other hand，lateness sometimes brings about much trouble in solving urgent problems．
Asfor those who are unintentionally late，like Johnson and Joanna，I have two suggestions as follows．First，whenever you make appointments with others，make sure you have understood all the details and try to get there a few minutes before the appointed time．Second，make good preparations for the appointments but never become too particular about every detail．．
