          In the United States, it is not usual to telephone someone very early in the morning.  If you telephone
    him early in the day, while he is taking a shower or having breakfast, the time of the call shows the matter
    is very important and requires attention at once. If someone receives a call after 11:00 pm, he thinks it is
    a matter of life and death.  The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
          In social life,   time   plays  a  very  important part.   In  the  USA, guests will feel they are not highly
    regarded if the invitation  to  a dinner party is only three or four days before the party 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 early because plans that are made for a date more than a week away will be forgotten. The meaning
    of time is different in different parts of the world. Therefore, misunderstandings appear between people
    from different cultures that treat time differently. Being on time is thought of highly  in  American  life.  If
    people are not on time, they may be regarded as impolite.      In  the  USA,  keeping  business  companies
    waiting for an hour is too impolite.  A  person  is  expected to say sorry when he is 5 minutes late. lf he is
    less than 5 minutes late, he  will  say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the
    sentence.

         Traveling is fun because you can see how people in other parts of the
    world live. One thing travelers don't of-ten think about before traveling is
    how other cultures bathe ( take a bath). And bathrooms in many countries
    may be different from the kind you are used to.
         In the United States , most people take a shower once a day in the
    morning. The showerhead is usually mounted on the wall and cannot be
    moved. The bather simply stands under the water, gets wet, scrubs (撩) with
    soap and often a washcloth , and then rinses off(洗掉) .
         Children often take a bath each night and enjoy playing with small toys
    such as boats and rubber ducks. Many adults, especially women, enjoy a
    relaxing bath to get rid of stress at the end of the day.
