【题目】请阅读下列材料，并按要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
材料1：各国对迟到时间容忍度的情况调查（单位：分钟）
Tolerance toward one’s lateness
材料2:
There are few habits as annoying as someone making us wait. However, some punctually- challenged people have no intention of offending anyone. They still want to keep friends, family and bosses happy. They are often painfully aware and ashamed of the damage their lateness could do to their relationships, reputations, careers and finances.
Johnson, a doctor in New York, says his reputation for being unpunctual can sometimes be caused by a misunderstanding of opinion. “A friend will ask me to come over, and he’ll say ‘come anytime from seven.’ But if I do turn up at eight or later, he will be annoyed.”
Joanna, a teacher in London, for whom the most distressing (令人苦恼的) thing is writing school reports, never makes the deadline for herself. “I always spend weeks carefully considering everything about the reports,” she says, “just for fear that any error arises.”

在线课程【答案】Different countries adopt different tolerance towards one’s lateness. Actually, some people are late not deliberately but because they misunderstand others’ opinions or pay too much attention to details.
As we all know, frequent lateness will have negative effects on one’s daily life. On the one hand, unpunctual people tend to leave a bad impression on those who have made the appointment with them. Others usually regard being punctual as a sign of keeping the promise. On the other hand, lateness sometimes brings about much trouble in solving urgent problems.
As for those who are unintentionally late, like Johnson and Joanna, I have two suggestions as follows. First, whenever you make appointments with others, make sure you have understood all the details and try to get there a few minutes before the appointed time. Second, make good preparations for the appointments but never become too particular about every detail.
