　　Japan's 24-hour convenience stores, already struggling with lagging sales and growth, may soon face yet another threat-moves to limit business hours and close the stores late at night．The district of Saitama, which borders Tokyo, may follow in the footsteps of the western city of Kyoto and urge convenience stores to close during late night hours in an effort to limit carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)emissions, Japanese media reported．

　　Kyoto, a former capital, wants to persuade convenience and other 24-hour stores to close late at night so as to improve evening views of the city and cut down on energy use．The Nikkei business daily said closures could last from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. The move is strongly opposed by the industry, which fears a bad impact on an already troubled sector also grappling with the specter of a higher tobacco tax, which could hit overall sales．

　　“Even if we only operate the stores for 16 hours, we can't stop the refrigerators,”said Toshiro Yamaguchi, the president of Seven-Eleven Japan Co, which is owned by Seven & I Holdings Co Ltd, at a news conference in Saitama on Tuesday．He said such cuts in operating hours would reduce each store's profit by 20 percent．“If this happens, our current business model will lose its foundation．”

　　Analysts said that while it is difficult to estimate the potential impact of the move without a concrete plan, their overall impression was that it was likely to be negative．“This could cut profits and lead to less efficient operations and the increased loss of opportunities,”said Masafumi Shoda, an analyst at Nomura Securities．“But it depends on the store－urban stores do better than others．There are some in the countryside that are inefficient．”

　　Some have suggested that if governments were sincere about reducing carbon emissions there were much more efficient methods, such as cutting back on the huge number of automatic vending machines(自動售貨機)．

(1)

Which of the followings was the first to try to limit convenience store hours?
[　　]
A．	Saitama
B．	Tokyo
C．	Kyoto
D．	Nomura Security

(2)

What's the main goal of the proposal?
[　　]
A．	To give employees more free time．
B．	To limit carbon dioxide emissions．
C．	To sell more tobacco products．
D．	To reduce each store’s profit．

(3)

How's the convenience store sector doing in Japan?
[　　]
A．	It is not mentioned．
B．	It's doing great．Business is booming．
C．	Not very well．
D．	It’s about to close．

(4)

According to the passage, which convenience stores are generally more successful?
[　　]
A．	The ones in big cities．
B．	The ones in the countryside．
C．	The ones in Tokyo．
D．	The ones in Saitama．

(5)

According to the convenience store industry, what impact would closing for the night have on a typical store?
[　　]
A．	It could cause a 10％increase in sales．
B．	Its effect would be maximal．It would close soon．
C．	Its effect would be minimal．People would simply shop earlier．
D．	It could cause a 20％decrease in profits．

答案：1．C;2．B;3．C;4．A;5．D;

　　Many Americans are turning to Japan, they think, a country of high academic achievement and economic success, for possible answers．However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find．In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction．In one survey, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education．Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents(答問卷者)listed“to give children a good start academically”as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools．In contrast, over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices．To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese schools do not teach reading, writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as determination, concentration, and the ability to work as a member of a group．The huge majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents．

　　Like in America, there is diversity(多樣性)in Japanese early childhood education．Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential development．In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schools．Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children's chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated schools and universities．Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens．

　　Milk was one of the main foods of people long before history was written．It will probably keep on being one as long as there are animals that give milk．
