In the fifth “world youth altitude survey“【 1】 by the Management and Coordination Agency in 1993, over 70 percent of the Japanese 【 2】 chose the answers “One should get married. “ or “Its be

18、tter to get married. “ Of the 11 countries surveyed, Japan was【 3】 only by the Philippines in the percentage advocating marriage【 4】 opposed to a single life. In recent years, however, there has been a spreading recognition among the Japanese public that something【 5】 is happening in peoples attitud

19、es toward marriage. When they began to have adequate food, clothing and shelter and thus became able to【 6】 their attention to other matters, the Japanese for the first time【 7】 a renewed look at the question of marriage. In the 1990s, people began to ask “What on earth is marrage anyway?“ and to ta

20、lk about marriage itself. In Japan, the proportion of men still unmarried in their thirties reached about 20 percent in the national census taken in 1985 and the【 8】 apparently exceeded 30 percent in 1995. The proportion of unmarried women in the 25-29 age bracket has been increasing【 9】 about 5 per

21、cent every five years until it is now nearly 50 percent. What are the real reasons women choose not to marry? Early on, two were【 10】 : women were now better educated and more women were interested in working outside the home. Many women have become【 11】 independent, acquiring enough self-confidence

22、 to【 12】 a meaningful life outside of marriage. And【 13】 seems to be a wide gap in the way men and women view marriage. Women generally believe that,【 14】 womens roles in Japans postwar society have become diversified, men have essentially remained unchanged.【 15】 such circumstances, communication b

23、etween the sexes is, in fact, far from easy. Besides that, in the postwar Japan, individualism has begun to take【 16】 . The 50 years since the end of the war are regarded as process of a【 17】 from the family-centered to the individual-centered way of thinking. In Japan today, society has matured to

24、a point【 18】 it now tolerates a diversity of marriage styles which were unthinkable not very long ago. In the future, such tolerance is almost【 19】 to increase. But a headlong plunge toward unbridled individualism is also dangerous. The ideal【 20】 may be to achieve a complementary fusion of the coll

She turns on the light, soaps up a washcloth, and begins cleaning her friends f

29、ace. Is Anie an extremely devoted companion? Yes! Allie is a capuchin monkey who helps her disabled friend perform everyday tasks. Monkeys like Allie are just one of many kinds of animals that help improve-or even save-human lives. But not all animals are suited to do every job. Certain animals are

30、“hired“ for specific jobs based on their traits, or characteristics. By using different methods of conditioning (training animals to act in a particular way in response to a stimulus, or signal), humans can teach animals toper form extraordinary tasks. Throughout history, humans have relied on anima

31、ls traits to get certain jobs done. For example, compared with humans, dogs are “far superior at tracking down odors“, says Marian Bailey, an animal behaviorist at Henderson State University in Arkansas. Thats because dogs have million of olfactory receptors, or smell nerves, in their noses. For tha

32、t reason, hunters used dogs to track down prey even in ancient Egypt. Today, dogs my be employed to sniff out illegal substances in school lockers or earthquake victims buried beneath the rabble of the collapsed building or highway. Primates may not be good sinffers, but they can certainly lend a he

33、lping hand-or two. Monkeys are perfect helpmates for quadriplegics, people paralyzed from the neck down who are unable to use their own hands (and legs). Like humans, explains Bailey monkeys have opposable thumbs-thumbs that face the hands other fingers-so monkeys can pick up objects. Capuchins lear

34、n to open doors, clean up spills, and unscrew bottle tops. They can even get a sandwich out of the refrigerator and load your favorite tape into the VCR. And speaking of VCRs, animals are even helping scientists make a videotape. Jennifer Hurley, an animal researcher at the Long Marine Lab in Santa

35、Cruz, California, is training two sea lions to carry video cameras on their backs to record the natural behavior of whales. So how do you get an animal employee to do its job? The answer, career-training. Trainers teach the animals to obey their instructions through a process called conditioning. Mo

36、st trainers condition animals by using positive reinforcement, rewarding an animal for doing something correctly, says animal behaviorist Bailey. For example, trainers teach their dogs how to sniff out drugs by hiding a towel with the smell of drags. “Dogs love to retrieve objects so the towel becom

37、es a reward“, says Morris Berkowitz, who heads up a canine drug-sniffing program in New York. After repeating this game of hide-and-seek many times, the dog begins to “associate the odor with a reward“, says Berkowitz. When he gives the command, or stimulus, the dog seeks cot drags (its like learnin

38、g to study hard for a tests in order to get a good grade as a reward.) At “Helping Hands-Monkey Helpers for the Disabled“, capuchin monkeys are trained twice before being teamed with a disabled human. First, monkeys are placed with a foster family to become socialized to people. For five years, fami

39、lies help the monkeys adapt to a human environment, so the monkeys will trust and enjoy being around people. Taking the monkeys in when theyre four to six weeks old is important, says Bailey. “Thats when monkeys normally become socialized to other monkeys,“ she says. Second, trainers at Helping Hand

40、s train the monkeys to perform specific tasks to assist a particular person. For example, a monkey may be trained to scratch an itch, or slip a floppy disc into a computer dive. Trainers reward the monkeys by using positive reinforcement, such as food, drinks. Allie is a capuchin【 16】 who helps her

41、disabled friend perform everyday tasks. Allie is a(n)【 17】 of many animals who can be【 18】 to do certain jobs. Besides monkeys,【 19】 and sea lions can also give people a helping【 20】 . Dogs are good at【 21】 down prey and sniffing out【 22】 and【 23】 because they have millions of【 24】 in their nose Mon

42、keys are good helper for the【 25】 , who cannot look after themselves. Sea lions can help scientists to record the【 26】 of whales because they :can【 27】 to the deep ocean. In addition,【 28】 are part of whales natural environment, which makes the video more【 29】 . But animals cannot do the jobs【 30】 t

43、raining. The main process of training is called【 31】 , which uses 【 32】 . During the training, trainers 【 33】 an animal for doing something【 34】 . For monkeys, the positive reinforcement can 【 35】 a year before they are qualified for their jobs. 70 A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing

44、at the【 11】 time and is never late in keeping an appointment. He knows that he can not get through his immense amount of work【 12】 he faithfully keeps every【 13】 promptly and deals with every piece of work【 14】 it has to be attended to. There is a【 15】 which says, “Time flies, never to be recalled.“

45、 Time is more【 16】 than material things. The unpunctual man, on the other hand, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always【 17】 that he finds no time to answer letters, or return calls or keep appointments【 18】 . Friends sometimes grow cold towards each other, or even become enemi

46、es, because one of them has been remiss in answering letters or keeping appointments. Tile punctual man is a source of annoyance【 19】 to others and to himself. Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to doing one s duty, whether public or private. Failure to be punctual in【 20】 one s

47、appointments is a sign of disrespect towards others. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted by his friends or fellow men. In the end, he loses both time and his good name. 80 It was a foolish question to ask. It【 61】 more sense for me to have learned if she had【 62】 or a poi

48、nt of view, but it was【 63】 for that now and I supposed that the【 64】 Relations Office had【 65】 her before granting the interview. I didnt have time this week to read【 66】 pieces about corporate rainmakers and their golden parachutes or women at midtown law firms【 67】 six times my salary but whining

49、 about breaking the【 68】 ceiling. “Wont waste your time,“ she【 69】 . “If the details on your【 70】 are accurate and the articles Laura【 71】 me have correct background, we wont have to【 72】 that.“ I【 73】in approval. She was obviously a【 74】 , and an intelligent one【 75】 . It was always【 76】 to sit for a【 77】 when the questioner spent the first hour asking what schools I had【 78】 , how long【 79】 , and whether I liked my j
