In Western countries punctuality is very important．
In the business world, people often have very busy timetables．They may have something planned for every hour of the working day．This means that meetings are sometimes set up months before．
If a seller has agreed to meet a buyer at a given time, he or she will want the seller to be there at that time．If the person shows up late, there may be a problem．The buyer may not want to do business because of the lateness．
If a person is late it says he and his company aren't reliable(可靠的)．If a meeting has to be put off, then the person who is being met should be told quickly．It is also expected that friends will turn up on time for meetings with each other．It is thought rude to be late．If two friends plan to meet in a cafe, and one of them is very late, the other may be upset．To leave friends sitting on their own, with nothing to do, may embarrass(使尴尬)them．It says to them that their friend doesn't really care about them．
At other times rules are more relaxed．In Britain, for example, if someone throws a party on a Saturday evening, many people will be asked to come．The host may say that the party will last“from 8 till late”．That is, it may go on for a long time．It will be all right for a person to arrive at some time during the party．They don't need to come promptly(迅速的)at 8 o'clock．

Dear Karen,
As you probably know, it’s my sister Suzie’s 16th birthday in a week. We’re planning a surprise party for her. Julie’s going to pick her up from school as usual on Friday but she’s not taking her home. She’s bringing her to the Palace Hotel, the big modern one near the station. We’re having a meal there and we’ve also hired (租用) the ballroom (舞厅) for a party in the evening. I hope you can come!
All her friends from school are coming and quite a few of the people from our village, too. Of course, Mum and Dad are coming up from England and I’ve managed to persuade (说服) our other sister, Marie, to come over from Australia. She’s bringing her kids with her, too.
After the party we’re going to have another one on Saturday! Well, not really a party. We’re inviting the family and close friends (that includes you) for a meal at the house. If the weather is nice, we’d like to have a barbecue in the garden. Julie’s going to make a special cake for Suzie.
Anyway, we hope to make it a really special weekend for Suzie. On Sunday we’re all going for a walk in the country. You know how she loves walking and we’re all going to need a bit of exercise after all that lovely food. We’re hoping to go up to the lake. Marie said she wanted her kids to feed the ducks just like Suzie and she did when they were very young. I’m sure Suzie will love that too.
It would be great if you could come over for the weekend. We would all love to see you.
Let me know as soon as you can.
Best,
David
