14、be confusing in many ways. They need to learn to live in a different environment. Some laws and rules are written down. They can learn about them before they arrive.

15、ere is a list of five important issues any new arrival to the U.S. should know about.Be “on time.“ In some cultures, time is not a big issue.

16、ct. If you are late by more than a few minutes, people will think you do not care. They will feel you are wasting their time.

20、n offers this information, then there is no problem.Be polite for the situation. People in the U.S. define being polite in very special ways. For example, waiting in line involves a strong set of rules in this country. You must wait until the people in front of you have done what they are waiting to
21、 do. When going through a door, the person behind you expects you to hold the door for them. Also, it is common for people you do not know to say hello to you when passing you.
