　　Arabs consider it extremely(非常地)bad manners to start talking business immediately．Even the busiest government official or executive(经理主管人员)always takes extra time to be polite and offer refreshments．No matter how busy you are, you should make time for his hospitality(好客)．

　　The conference is a way of doing business throughout the Arab world．Frequently, you will have to discuss your business in the presence of strangers, who may or may not have anything to do with your business．Do not be surprised if your meeting is interrupted several times by people who come into the room unannounced, whisper, or speak softly to the person with whom you are talking, and leave．Act as though you do not hear, and never show displeasure at being interrupted．

　　Making decisions quickly is not an Arab custom．There is vagueness(含糊)in doing business in the Middle East, which will puzzle a newcomer．Give yourself lots of time and ask lots of questions．

　　When an Arab says yes, he may mean“maybe”．When he says maybe, he probably means“no”．You will seldom get a direct“no”from an Arab because it is considered impolite．Instead of“no”, he may say“inhallah”, which means“if God is willing”．On the other hand,“yes”doesn't necessarily mean“yes”．A smile and a slow nod might seem like an agreement, but in fact, your host is being polite．An Arab considers it impolite to disagree with a guest．

(1)

[　　]
A．	why you need extra time when you visit Arab countries
