Question

Ethan Brunet · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  Todd's behavior reflects cultural intelligence, as he is making an effort to understand and adapt to the culture of North Korea. In contrast, Sarah feels out of place, which could be indicative of culture shock or a lack of cultural intelligence. Ethnocentrism, monochronic cultural identity, and low-context cultural ideals do not seem to be applicable in this scenario.
