To the Japanese, gift giving is a way of communicating respect, friendship, and appreciation. When meeting with a group of Japanese professionals, be sure to give higher quality gifts to those with more senior rank within the company. Always present the gift with two hands. This is also true with presenting business cards.

important to avoid gifts that will be regarded as bribes( 行贿 ). Small gifts such as pens, business diaries, and mementos with company logos are usually sufficient. It is important to avoid highly personal gifts such as clothing. When visiting the home of a

2. Nuclear power is a method used to generate electricity in Canada. Canada has played an

important role in the development of nuclear power technology. In the 1950s, Canadian

scientists developed the CADU reactor. The reactor is now used in three Canadian provinces and number of other countries. Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) established its first nuclear power station division in Toronto in 1958. their job was to create a plan for a big nuclear power station. In 1959, a nine-person team of engineers and scientists designed the first nuclear power station in Canada. Construction of the station began in 1960 at

DouglasPoint on OntarioChalkRiver. By 1967, the station was producing power into the Ontario power system. In 1994, 60 percent of Ontario power came from the province ’s 20 nuclear

reators. Quebec and New Brunswick are the only other provinces that use nuclear power. Other countries in the world also use the CANDU, and more are being built. AECL sold one CANDU to Argentina in 1973 and one to South Korea in 1976, where is now installing three more CANDUs, which should be running by 1999. Two more CANDU reactors are also being installed in Romania. By creating the CANDU reactor, Canadian scientists have made a significant contribution to the world nuclear technology. AECL says it is the safety features and efficient design of the CANDU that have attracted other countries to use the Canadian-made reactor.

3. Fifty volunteers were alphabetically divided into two equal groups. Group A is to participate in a 7-week exercise program and Group B is to avoid planned exercise of any sort during those 7 weeks. On the day before the exercise program began, all 50 men participated in a step-test. This consisted of stepping up and down on a 16-inch bench, at 30 steps a minute for 5 minutes. One minute after completion of the step-test, the pulse rate of each subject ( 被测试者 ) was taken and recorded. This served as the pretest for the experiment. For the next 7 weeks, subjects in Group A rode an Exercycle ( 机器脚踏车 ) for 15 minutes each day, while Group B remained doing no planned exercises.

At the end of the 7 weeks, the step-test was again given to both groups of subjects, and their pulses taken. The post-exercise pulse rates of subjects in the experimental were found to have decreased an average of 30 heart beats per minutes, with the lowest decrease 28 and the highest decrease 46. The pulse rates of subjects in the control group remained the same or changed no more than 4 beats, with an average difference between the initial and final tests of zero.(1).
