The idea of what is early and what is late differs from culture to culture. If an American from the North makes an appointment with someone in a office, such as a professor, a manager or an official, for 11:00 a. m. , he will probably arrive at the office earlier —maybe about five minutes before eleven. He will tell the secretary that he has arrived for the 11:00 appointment, and will wait. The American will wait comfortably for five minutes. But after ten minutes, he will become uncomfortable and a little annoyed. On the other hand, if a Latin American makes an appointment with someone for 11: 00 a. m. , he may not arrive in the office until 11:15 or 11:20. He will not be surprised if he has to wait until 11:45.

选项

答案comfortably

解析 比约定时间晚三五分钟是正常现象,而下文又用连词but转折,说超过十分钟,人们就会等得不耐烦,说明这句意思与前句正好相反,所以空格处填入uncomfortable的副词反义词comfortably。
