IV. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer:
Informal conversation is an important part of any business relationship. Before you start a discussion, however, make sure you understand which topics are suitable and which are considered taboo in a particular culture.
In the United States, business people like to discuss a wide range of topics, including opinions about work, family, hobbies, and politics. In Japan, China, and Korea, however, people are much more private. They do not share much about their thoughts, feelings, or emotions because they feel that doing so might take away from the harmonious business relationship they're trying to build. Middle Easterners are also private about their personal lives and family matters. It is considered rude, for example, to ask a businessman from Saudi Arabia about his wife or children.
As a general rule, it's best not to talk about politics or religion with your business friends. This can get you into trouble, even in the United States, where people hold different views. In addition, discussing one's salary is usually considered unsuitable. Sports is typically a friendly subject in most parts of the world, although be careful not to criticize a national sport. Instead, be friendly and praise your host's team.

a. sports b. children

a. They don't want to talk with others much.
b. They don't want to have their good relationship with others harmed by informal conversation.
c. They are afraid to argue with their colleagues.
d. They want to keep their feelings to themselves.

a. Praising your own country's sports.
b. Criticizing your own country's sports.
c. Praising the sports of your colleagues' country.
