19、ee.”Next they went to the club house and saw the rich lunch with the cuisine(烹调风格) of the world laid out. “How much to eat?” asked the old man. “Dont you understand yet?

24、ys. In 1854, Commodore Perry of the U. S Navy sailed into Tokyo Bay. When he showed the people inventions like the telegraph and railroad train, Japan realized what it was missing. Japan has quickly caught up with western technology. It may have even gone past it.Japan has a population of over 116,0

25、00,000. The people are thickly settled on the four main islands. Since only one sixth of the land is arable, Japan relies on imported food. To pay for the imports, Japan exports manufactured goods.Japan builds and sells cars, motorcycles, television sets, radios and cameras. Textiles and chemicals a

26、re also made in Yokohama Harbor, ships are constructed for use by other nations.The “head start” (western nations had) may be the reason for Japans success today.

31、 and made up your mind to pay attention and never have daydreaming again. Most of us from earlier school days have been told that daydreaming is a waste of time.“On the contrary.” Says L. Giambra, an expert in psychology(心理学), “daydreaming is quite necessary. Without it, the mind couldnt get done al

32、l the thinking it has to do during a normal day You cant possibly do all your thinking with a conscious mind. Instead, your unconscious mind is working out problems all the time.

They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980s. Eric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer

34、 of the book Daydreaming.

44、f.”John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living.

In particular, he showed that all games fall into two classes: there are what he called games of perf

50、ect information, games like chess where the players cant hide anything or play tricks: they dont win by chance, but by means of logic and skills.
