My ears are recently full of joyous remarks from my friends such as, “Oh, Beckham is so handsome, so cool,

If we close our eyes, 47 in deep thought, we can find that the things that 48 us to be in truly happy,

official always takes extra time to be polite and offer refreshments (茶点). No matter how busy you are, you

should make time for this.

The conference（大会）visit 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 a vagueness (模糊) 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 not polite. Instead of “no”, he will say “inshallah”,

which means “if God is willing”. On the other hand, “yes” does not necessarily mean “yes”. A smile and a slow

nod might be like an agreement but in fact your host is being polite. An Arab considers it rude to disagree with a

guest.

56. The main purpose of this article is to explain _________________.

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

B. how to be polite when doing business in the Arab world

C. why Arab officials are so busy

D. what Arabs say when doing business

57. According to the article, which of the following would be considered polite?

A. You leave angrily because of interruptions.

B. You demand an immediate decision.

C. You refuse a cup of tea and show pictures of your product right away.

D. You look out of the window while a stranger comes in to speak with your host.

58. Which of the following is NOT an Arab custom?

(B)

Have you ever been in a situation, where you felt uneasy because of something you think you may have

A. Not care much about being interrupted during their meeting.

B. Often to give you a vague answer.

C. Seldom to say “no” directly.

D. Never start talking business in the presence of strangers.
