A
Meeting people from another culture can be difficult . From the beginning , people may send the wrong signal (信号) . Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship .
Different cultures emphasize (强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree . For example , business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust . Even with people at work , it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea , before they do any job . In many European countries—like the UK or France –people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.
