Answer to Question 1

D
In high-context cultures, the context is important. Trust is crucial and a handshake in the Middle East is as important and reliable as a paper contract. In low-context cultures business may be conducted on e-mail or paper because what is said is precisely what is meant. In low-context cultures, business is often done at arm's length for this reason. This may be found in Language section (5-2a).
