Question

When General Motors first began selling its Chevy Novas in Mexico, it could not understand the low sales volume at first. Then, GM discovered that the word, "no va" in Spanish means "something that does not go." Would you buy a car that does not go? This is a prime example of which way to avoid misunderstandings? A. Biases in paying attention B. Cultural similarities C. Choosing the simple, basic word(s) D. Separating facts from inferences

Answer 1

The correct answer is letter "B": Cultural similarities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cultural similarities refer to customs and special terms that for one region or country are widely accepted but not for others. Those actions or phrases could be exactly the same but carry a different or even negative meaning in different places. This is not limited to actions and terms used in day-to-day activities but also under formal circumstances.
