People from different countries
have different ideas on how to
value time. Here are 2 examples.
Let’s learn a passage about it.
Read the following opinions of a Colombian
and a Swiss student . In which country is it OK
to be 15 minutes late for dinner
3a
Where I’m from, we’re pretty relaxed about time. We
don’t like to rush around, so we don’t mind if people are a little
late sometimes. If you tell a friend you’re going to their house
for dinner, it’s OK if you arrive a bit late. We like to enjoy our
time slowly. We value the time we spend with our family and
friends in our everyday lives. We often just drop by our friends’
homes if we have time. We don’t usually have to make plans to
meet our friends. When we see each other, it’s polite for boys
to shake hands and for girls to kiss each other on the side of the
face. We often just walk around the town center, seeing as many
of our friends as we can!
In Switzerland, it’s very important to be on time. We’re
the capital of clocks and watches, after all! If someone invites
you to meet him or her at noon, then you’re expected to be
there at noon. If you’re even 15 minutes late, your friend may
get mad. So I make an effort to be on time when I meet my
friends. I always leave the house early to avoid heavy traffic
because I think it’s impolite to keep others waiting. Also, we
never visit a friend’s house without calling first. We almost
always make plans to see friends. We usually plan to do
something interesting, or go somewhere together.

A. make plans to visit their friends
