There are some pointes which are particularly important to remember when we are doing business with Japanese. First of all, age is a very important factor. Japanese managers, for instance, are much older than American managers. So many American companies fail in doing business with the Japanese by sending men far too young to conduct business negotiations (谈判) in Japan with their Japanese counterparts, who could be their fathers! It is quite an insult to the Japanese. The next point to be remembered is the use of business cards. The business card is not a simple piece of paper in Japan. Every business encounter starts with the exchange of business cards. The business card represents the person himself. You should receive it and study it with great care, when it is given to you. The first thing you should do as soon as you?ve arrived in Japan is to have 200 business cards printed for yourself.

The last point I want to draw your attention to is about business meetings or negotiations. First of all, don?t talk too much. Japan?s culture is essentially a non-verbal (非言语的) one. And don?t expect the Japanese businessmen to answer you with a clear “yes” or “no”. It often takes a long time to make a decision, or to arrive at a solution.

Six percent of Americans surveyed recently are addicted to the Internet. Such addiction

threatens the stability of both their work and home lives, according to a report by Dr. David Greenfield. This report found that six per cent of the 18000 people surveyed were addicted to browsing the Internet.

If the result is extrapolated to take in the U.S. population as a whole, such findings could

mean that millions of Americans have found a “new drug”. David, a psychologist from Connecticut, said that Internet addicts suffer symptoms similar to addicts hooked on drugs or other activities. Internet users said that they “almost always” found they lost track of time.

Another 83 per cent of those surveyed had a preoccupation with going on-line and a

majority (58 per cent) of them wanted to spend more time on-line. Just as other addictions, addicts eventually realize that they need to either cut back or quit even if withdrawal will be difficult. The report found that 68 per cent of Internet browsers have tired in vain to reduce the amount of time they waste on-line.

David posted a questionnaire on the website of ABC News for two weeks to question people

about their Internet use. A majority of addicts (57 per cent) go on-line to chat and 20 per cent of the on-line users go shopping or trade stocks.

The cases of those who abused or were addicted to the Internet included people who got up

in the middle of night to check their e-mail and a cosmetic executive who was fired for spending on average of seven hours a day at work on the Internet.

c. familiar with d. disposing of 2. A majority of addicts go on-line to ______ .

c. trade stocks d. do all of the above

3. “Internet users said that they ?almost always? found they lost track of time” means ______ . a. they forget what time it is b. they don?t have a clock with them c. they forget to set their watches d. they don?t want to know the time 4. The word “preoccupation” in paragraph 4 means ______ . a. profession b. work c. preparation d. obsession

5. All the following statements are true except that ______ . a. the addicts finally realize that they need to withdraw b. the addicts feel all right
