a)Yes,because then they would realize that delay could hurt them financially

c) No,because it emphasizes that you are asking the group to spend money in the first place and their reluctance to do so could be the cause of the delay.

THANK YOU:)))))
You're welcome. :-)
So , I am confused.... is it C or D coorect answer???
Yes, the correct answer is option d) No, because people in other countries often take a much more leisurely approach to negotiations; they may want to establish a personal relationship before they decide whether to do business with you or not and takes time.
To arrive at this answer, let's analyze the given options:
a) Yes, because then they would realize that delay could hurt them financially.
This option suggests that using the statement "Time is Money" would make the executives aware that delaying their decision could have financial consequences. While this may be true, it does not directly address the appropriateness of using this sentence as an opening line in the letter.
b) Yes, because it shows that you have a reason for punishing them on their decision.
This option suggests that using the statement "Time is Money" in the opening line would imply punishment for the executives' decision. However, this assumption is not necessarily accurate, as the intention of the letter should be to persuade and motivate, rather than punish.
c) No, because it emphasizes that you are asking the group to spend money in the first place, and their reluctance to do so could be the cause of the delay.
This option correctly identifies a potential problem with using the sentence "Time is Money" as the opening line. It highlights the possibility that the emphasis on spending money could be a hindrance to the decision-making process, resulting in a delay.
d) No, because people in other countries often take a much more leisurely approach to negotiations; they may want to establish a personal relationship before they decide whether to do business with you or not, and it takes time.
This option provides a valid reason to discard the sentence "Time is Money" as the opening line. It acknowledges that different cultures may have different negotiation styles and may prioritize relationship-building before making business decisions. This approach often takes more time, rendering the sense of urgency implied in the sentence less effective.
Given these explanations, option d) is the most appropriate answer.
