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.
B. Their different lifestyles.
C. The fact that the Japanese never say "No".
D. The fact that the Japanese are slow to take action.

Everyone would wonder, "Is there anything wrong with the food?" This may give a wrong message that
you don"t like the food or something like that.

That"s all.
Don"t cut up everything before you start to eat. Cut only one or two bites (块) at a time.
Never take a huge mouthful of anything. Do you want to show how hungry you are? Don"t do that.

You might be surprised to learn that India produces about 800 movies a year, and that number continues
to grow. Just as the movie Capital of the United States is Hollywood, the movie capital of India is Bombay
(孟买), but it is usually called "Bollywood", a combination (结合) of the words Bombay and Hollywood.
No Bollywood movie is thought complete without a few songs and dances. In fact, music is an important
part of Bollywood movies. Even a bad movie can still do well if the music is good. Music directors are
sometimes more popular than the film stars. A Bollywood movie has five to six songs with at least three songs
to show what the dances mean.
Bollywood may be different from Hollywood in music, but it is very like Hollywood in several ways. If
Tom Cruise can hold a gun, so can the Bollywood hero Sharukh Khan. Hollywood stars are followed by news
reporters just as often as Hollywood stars. The persona! lives of actors and actresses catch the headlines (头
