Each player wore an accelerometer (加速计), a small instrument fitted to the hip to measure how much time they spend walking and running.
The accelerometer measured people's waist size, blood pressure and the level of C-reactive protein in their blood. If people are at risk of heart disease, they often have high blood pressure.【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】

Japanese Ways of Doing Business日本人做生意的风格
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, 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 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 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.
1. What often makes foreigners feel difficult to do business in Japan?
A. Their different ways of doing business.
B. Their different lifestyles.
C. The fact that the Japanese never say "no".
D. The fact that the Japanese are slow to take action.【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
2. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined expression "bewilder foreign businessmen" in Paragraph l?
A. Cause foreign businessmen to change their minds.
B. Give a feeling of surprise to foreign businessmen.
C. Attract foreign businessmen's attention.
D. Make foreign businessmen think wrongly.
3. What fact does the passage lead you to believe?
A. American businessmen do things more slowly than Japanese ones.
B. American businessmen like to say "Yes" and "No".
C. Americans usually say what they are thinking.
D. Americans do not say what they think or feel clearly.
4. From the passage we can infer that .
A. Japanese businessmen are good at business
B. foreign businessmen should try to know Japanese ways of doing business
C. foreign businessmen must be more polite
D. you must learn from Japanese businessmen if you want to succeed
思路点拨:本文介绍了日本不同于别国的做生意的风格。
答案解析:
1.A。根据第一段最后一句“Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business,however,often bewilder foreign businessmen and make doing business in Japan difficult for foreigners"可知,是存在于日本和西方之间的不同的做生意的方式使得外国人在日本做生意有些困难,故选A。
2.D。联系上下文可知,日本商人的委婉使得人们容易迷惑,故选D。
3.C。根据第三段第一句“In the USA, it is easy to say‘no' to something one does not want to do”可知,美国人怎么想就怎么说,故选C。
4.B。通读全文可知,作者旨在让我们了解日本不同于别国的做生意的风格,以免遇到尴尬和犯迷糊。故选B。www.21-cn-jy.com
