Whatever you do, dont stay in a place full of overseas students, especially if they come from our
26、country. This is fatal. Dont believe all the stories you hear about how unfriendly the English are. Its just that many of them are a little shy, and they have this idea about minding their own business. In a train, or restaurant, for example, or anywhere else they will talk to you; but you must brea
27、k the ice first. Then see them talk! Any subject will do-the weather, their dogs,food. Pardon me, not any subject.

31、ng. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he
32、 assumes its a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. 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
33、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 far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misund
34、erstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example.
