    Close contacts between Japan and the rest of the world were created in the twentieth century. In the last forty years, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreign companies now have offices in Japan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world. Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder foreign businessmen and make doing business in Japan difficult for foreigners.
    The American businessman, for example, wants to start talking business immediately. He does not want to wait. The Japanese businessman, on the other hand, likes to arrive at decisions after giving them serious thought. Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means "Yes" or "No". This is because of cultural differences between Japanese and Western society(社会), Which make it difficult for a Japanese to say "No" directly.
    In the USA, it is easy to say "No" to something one does not want to do. But in Japan, it is very difficult to say "No". To refuse an invitation or a request(请求) with "No" is felt to be impolite. It is thought to be selfish and unfriendly. So instead of saying "No" directly, the Japanese have developed many ways to avoid(避免) saying "No". These can help them avoid hurting other people's feelings. However, this often makes their ways of doing business rather difficult for foreigners to understand and follow.

Inventions usually make a big difference to people's lives. Do you have any great inventions at home? Do they help you a lot in your life or bring you much fun? Here are some of the most useful inventions in families according to a survey.

	The most helpful and creative invention for kids is the reading pen. With the specially- designed pen, kids find it convenient and fun to learn. Little kids can learn a lot, including story- telling, poems and music. They start learning by touching the contents(内容) in the books with the pen. This way kids can learn by themselves. They are also great helpers for primary school students after school.
	Mopping robots(扫地机器人) are popular with people who are too busy to do housework. They are more popular with office ladies. They can help people clean dirt, dust and hair easily. With the help of them, people don't need to spend much time on housework. They can enjoy a more relaxing life after work.
	As for old people, an electric foot basin(电动洗脚盆) is the best invention. It's a good choice to buy one for your grandparents. It can help keep their blood pressure normal and improve blood circulation(循环). The special basin can keep the water warm. So washing feet with it will help old people become healthier and more relaxed.

①Sometimes you may find it hard to make more progress(进步) in your study. At this time, I think you need to change yourself. Here are some great ways for you to make more progress.

②First, use notebooks. Take one notebook with you in class and write down what the teacher says. This way will help you remember things well.

③Then, have a good sleep. Sleep is really important to each of us. Middle school students need to sleep at least(至少) nine hours a night. But do you know how to have a good sleep? First of all, try to keep the same sleeping time every night, even at weekends. Then, drink a glass of milk before you go to bed. I think these are good ways to help you have a good sleep.

④Next, know when you work best. There are many studies showing advantages(好处) of night- time studying and early- morning studying. If you work late at night, make sure to give yourself some time to sleep in the morning.

⑤Last, make good use of your learning way. Find out as many learning ways as possible(可能) first, and then try to find which way is appropriate for you and use it often.
