During her summer vacation, Caitlin flew from Chicago, Illinois to Madrid, Spain to visit Maria, the friend she met last semester. In the airport, she heard rapid, musical Spanish all around her. It was exciting, but she felt alone and uncomfortable. Maria's mother kissed Caitlin on both cheeks when she greeted her/and Caitlin was surprised. Caitlin was almost asleep by dinner time at 10 pml Maria's family sat at the table for hours. They spoke loudly and they argued about politics, a taboo dinner topic in Caitlin's house. They served wine and toasted their honoured guest. Caitlin did not understand her hosts' facial expressions, and did not know that she should make the next toast. That night Caitlin crawled into a strange bed, and she wanted to go home. She felt overwhelmed by the new customs, language and surroundings. What Caitlin did not know was that people use not only spoken words but also subtle cues like gestures and facial expressions, to communicate. Cultural norms accompany even the smallest non-verbal signals. They help people when to shake hands, where to sit, how to converse, and even when to laugh.

উত্তরঃ

প্যাসেজটি স্পষ্টভাবে বলছে যে Caitlin মারিয়ার বাড়ি থেকে চলে যেতে চাচ্ছিল কারণ সে নতুন পরিবেশের সাথে খাপ খাওয়াতে পারছিল না। অন্য অপশনগুলো ভুল কারণ Caitlin ও Maria বন্ধু, Caitlin 'Non verbal communication' বুঝতে পারছিল না, এবং Maria সরাসরি সাহায্য করার কথা উল্লেখ নেই।
