The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both an informal and a formal situation: at a lunch with a friend and in a university class. He found that if they had a lunch appointment with a friend, the average American student defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. However, the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.
In an American university, classes not only begin at the scheduled time in the United States, but also end at the scheduled time. In the Brazilian class, only a few students left the class at 12: 00; many remained past 12: 30 to discuss the class and ask more questions. While arriving late may not be very important in Brazil, neither is staying late.
The word "punctual' most probably means______.
A.leaving soon after class
B.coming early
C.arriving a few minutes late
D.being on time

However, three days later, a letter arrived, calling me to Croydon for a meeting with the headmaster. It was clearly the headmaster himself __2__ open the door. He was short and round.
