Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Cultures differ in their perceptions of physical space; we have our own sense of personal space and feel uncomfortable if others violate it. Conversational distance is closer in Latin America than in Northern Europe or the United States. Those who live in crowded Japan and Belgium have smaller personal space requirements than those who live in land-rich Russia or the United States. In Islamic countries, close proximity may be discouraged between a man and a woman who are not married.
