Have you ever rubbed your hands together when they get cold? Why do we do that? We do that for friction. Friction happens when two things that aren’t very smooth rub together to make heat energy. The faster you rub two things together, the more friction (and heat) you can make. Let’s discover friction!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
● Soap           ● Water          ● Your hands!
WHAT TO DO:
1. Make sure your hands are dry.
2. Rub your hands together until you feel the heat of your hands.
3. Now, use soap and water to get your hands very slippery (滑的).
4. Try to make friction happen while your hands are slippery.
5. Please write down what has happened.
LET’S TALK!
Friction is an energy that happens when two things rub together. When friction happens, it makes heat! When your hands are slippery, they won’t make very much friction and your hands won’t get so hot.
DID YOU KNOW?
1. Friction happens when you stop your fast running bike.
2. Ancient people made fires by rubbing two pieces of wood together. Friction happened though they didn’t know it.
        ?       
Friction is everywhere. Have you ever noticed situations where friction is happening? If not, ask your parents to take you out in a car. If it is not too hot, touch the tires (輪胎) of the car before and after a short drive to see how much warmer they get from friction.

In 1961, a man found a strange cat on his farm in Scotland. The cat’s ears were folded, bent forward, on its head. In fact, this was a new kind of cat. People named it the "Scottish Fold(蘇格蘭折耳貓)".
The Scottish Fold has a round head and large eyes. Its neck and legs are short, which makes it look very cute. Interestingly, all the Scottish Folds are born with straight and unfolded ears. And when they are growing up day by day, some cats’ ears will begin to fold. So, the Scottish Fold comes in two types: folded ears and straight ears.
Besides, there is a nickname for the Scottish Fold. It is the " Messenger of Peace". Why?
Because the Folds are sweet and friendly animals. They can get along well with other cats. And
unlike some other cats, they can even get along well with dogs! In many different environments, such as at a noisy house, or in a cat show, you can see them playing with other animals happily.
Well, when you come to a new school, do you think it’s difficult to adapt to the new environment? Perhaps you can learn from the Scottish Fold. That is: always be sweet and friendly to others.

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(社會), 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(請求) 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.
小題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.
小題2:Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined expression “bewilder foreign businessmen” in Paragraph One?
A．cause foreign businessmen to change their minds.
B．give a feeling of surprise to foreign businessmen.
C．a(chǎn)ttract foreign businessmen’s attention.
D．make foreign businessmen think wrongly.
小題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.
小題4: From the passage we can infer(推斷) 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
