答案
C
解析
本题为细节题,考查考生理解并记住对话中明确表述的细节或事实的能力。题目问:为什么守时很重要?解答本题的关键句为:“The lack of punctuality implies that we do not have consideration for other people’s time and displays selfish behavior. If you arrive late to a dinner, it can be a great inconvenience for your host (不守时意味着我们自私,不考虑别人的时间。如果你赴宴迟到,会给主人造成诸多不便)”。由此得出选项C(不守时会造成主人的不便)为正确答案。选项A(如果客人守时,可以帮助主人招待其他客人)、选项B(来得越早,吃的食物越多)和选项D(守时被认为是人的一种品质)文章中均未提及,因此不予选择。
