on a friendly basis. Do your homework. Be prepared to discuss details

    Familiarize yourself to the Moslem and national holidays. Avoid a          【S4】______
visit during Ramadan, the Moslem month of fasting. Most Arab countries

with the Monday to Friday practice in most Western                             【S5】______
countries, it leaves only three and a half workdays shared. Remember

选项

答案 yes→no

解析 yes→no语篇错误。从上文maybe probably means no我们可以看出阿拉伯人说no时很委婉,不可能因为直接说了yes就让人觉得不礼貌;而且从上下文继续可以找到线索,都是在解释阿拉伯人的委婉。on the other hand后面才是说明yes的含义。
