If people are late to job interviews, appointments, or classes, they are often vie_ wed as unreliable and irresponsible. In th

24、e_ s late for schedule appointments is considered polite and is often ex_ pected. Keeping a date of a friend waiting beyond ten to twenty minute_ s is considered rude. On the other hand, arriving thirty minutes late to some parties is acceptable. Respecting deadlines is also important in academic an

25、d professional ci_ rcles. It is expected that deadlines for class assignments or business reports will be met.

30、gers and stress; its motivating force is, in the broadest s_ ense, money. Opportunities to make money mean competition and competit_ ion is stressful; it is often at its most intense in the largest cities , where opportunities are greatest. The presence of huge numbers of pe_ ople inevitable involve

31、s more conflict, more traveling, the overloading of public services and exposure to those deviants and criminals who are drawn to the rich pickings of great cities. Crime has always flourished in the relative anonymity of urban life, but todays ease of movement makes its control more difficult than

32、ever; there is much evidence that its extent has a direct relationship to the size of communities. City dwellers may become trapped in their homes by the fear of crime around them. As a defense against these developments city dwellers tend to use vari_ ous strategies to try and reduce the pressures

41、es way? How was one to challenge? Slowly it dawned upon him. Here was his chance, the bench. The railway bench with the legend Europeans Only neatly painted on it in white.
