If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of call shows tha
33、t the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it is a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social lif
34、e, time plays a very important part. In the United States, guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But this is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish
35、to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meanings of time differ in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued high
36、ly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. When equals meet, a person who is five minutes late is expected to make
37、 a short apology. If he is less than five minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence. To Americans, forty minutes of waiting is the beginning of the “insult period“. No matter what is said in apology, there is little that can remove the dam
38、age done by an hours wait. Yet in some other countries, a forty minutes waiting period was not unusual. Instead of being the very end of the allowable waiting scale, it was just the beginning. Americans look ahead and are concerned almost entirely with the future. The American idea of the future is
39、limited, however. It is the foreseeable future and not the future of the South Asian, which may involve centuries. Someone has said of the South Asian idea of time: “Time is like a museum with endless halls and rooms. You, the viewer, are walking through the museum in the dark, holding a light to ea
40、ch scene as you pass it. God is in charge of the museum, and only he knows all that is. One lifetime represents one room. Since time has different meanings in different cultures, communication is often difficult. We will understand each other a little better if we can keep this fact in mind.（分数：6.00

A. wait longer than in other countries B. apologize for being late for 40 minutes C. are more polite than people in other countries D. give an explanation for being a little .bit late（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).For South Asians, time_.

After years on top, Nike suddenly looks like a world-class marathoner who, in mid-race, questions whether hes got what it takes to keep on running. Nikes symptoms of distress: a global glut of shoes, flat sales in key market, and declining profit
46、s. Moreover, the global brand champ that captured its own winning corporate mindset with the “Just do it“ ad slogan has a new pitch. “I can“ to which investors seem to be restoring. “No, you cant.“ Losing faith, they have knocked Nike stock from its all time high of $76 about a year ago to a recent $46.What happened? While Nike has tripped on fickle fashion trends and heightened competition before, its main obstacle today appears to be its own success. Heres why:Big-brand backlash. When he founded Nike in 1972, CEO Phil Knight contended that “if five cool g
