问题　　It’ s impolite to arrive at a dinner party more than 15 to 20 minutes late. The host or hostess usually waits for all of the guests before serving the food. If someone is late, the food may be spoiled, and so might the host or hostess’ mood. If you find you will have to be late, call and tell them to start without you.
It’ s even worse to be early! The host or hostess will probably not be ready. If you are early, drive or walk around the block a few times, or just sit in your car until the right time.
It’ s often important to arrive at a party on time. Some get-togethers, especially formal dinner parties depend on exact arrival times. On the other hand, for open houses, the host or hostess invites guests to arrive and leave between specific times, so you can arrive at any time within the times he or she gives you.
It’ s nice to bring an empty stomach, but it’ s even nicer to bring a small gift. The gift should not cost a lot, or you might embarrass the host or hostess. Flowers, wine, some pretty soap for the guest bathroom, a box of candy, a bottle of inexpensive but good wine and similar gifts will do fine. Never bring money as a gift.
North Americans might kiss a close friend on the cheek in greeting. (But never on the lips — unless they are very, very close!) It is not customary for Americans to greet each other with a kiss unless they had not met for a long time.
If you find you ’ll have to be late for a dinner party, you should ________.

选项 A、send someone to tell the host or the hostess not to wait for you
B、send someone to tell the host or the hostess to wait for you
C、call and tell the host or the hostess not to wait for you
D、call and tell the host or the hostess to wait for you

答案C

解析事实细节题。文章第一段最后一句“如果你发现自己不得已要迟到，一定要打电话通知主人不要等你”。故选C。
