From bankers to factory staff, employees in the west face the bleak prospect (暗淡的前景) of losing their jobs as a global recession (衰退) starts to bite. For colleagues in the East the pain is more likely to come through a pay cut.
Human resource experts say cultural differences explain why Asian firms try harder to keep jobs in difficult times, which will stop unemployment and may help keep Asian economies afloat at a time of slowing exports.
The East Asian attitude may also make it easier for firms to recover quickly from the economic downturn since they will not need to rehire or train new staff, leaving some experts predicting Western shift to Eastern flexibility.
“In the Confucian (儒家的) attitude, the right thing to do is to share the burden. There is the sense of collective responsibility whereas (然而) in the West, it’s more about the individual survival,” said Michael Benotlel, associated professor of organizational behavior at Singapore Management University.
Steven Pang, Asian Regional Director for Aquent, a headhunting firm, said in many East Asian companies there was a responsibility “ to take care of the members of the family and go through the pain together” even if that meant causing losses.
US firms from General Motors to Goldman Sachs plan to lay off workers by the thousand. But at the Asian units of Western multinationals, job cuts will probably be less severe.
Japan’s jobless rate was 4 percent in September, up from 3.8 percent in January, while Hong Kong’s was flat at 3.4 percent. But US unemployment is expected to have jumped to 6.3 percent last month from below 5 percent in January.
Experts say that while there are noticeable differences in labor practices in East and West, the gap will narrow as more firms become more multinational and competition forces firms to adopt the best practices of rivals (对手) from abroad.
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
1.What caused the different practices of Asian and Western firms facing the global recession?
2.Why is it easier for the East Asian firms to recover quickly from the economic downturn?
3.Firms in the west would lay off workers when facing a bleak prospect because of ______.
4.______ will make the differences in East and West less noticeable.

Many people often lose their chance to live life to the fullest because of procrastination, which means that they always delay doing something that must be done at once. Moreover, because they often put off their plans till “tomorrow”, they are less likely to achieve their goals and will give up their dreams and goals finally. As a result, we can say that procrastination is the enemy of a progressive lifestyle.
Now that we know procrastination is something bad, why do some people not take immediate action? Well, there are some things that result in procrastination. Depending on someone else rather than doing by oneself is one of the things. Whenever you wait for something to happen before you act, you make it easier to delay your goals and dreams until “someday”. Another cause of procrastination is that people do not value each moment in their day. Actually, it’s surprising how much you can do if you just decide to do little things with the little time you have. Also those who often procrastinate can always find a good reason for something they refuse to do at once.If you are one of those who often delay, then it’s time for you to make a decision to act now because things happen only when we decide to act. Get down to doing something like losing weight, saving money or spending more time with family. Don’t let these things continue to be a desire for you to do “someday”, but make a decision to do it now.
Once you have made your decision, write down the plan and take action immediately. Making plans can help you think carefully about how you are going to do what you need to do. After understanding how to do what you want to do, get doing with the plan. It doesn’t matter how small the move you make is as the little things you do accumulate(累积)over time and move you to be closer to your goals. So, don’t wait until tomorrow; instead, start now! Just make use of every moment you have to do something that is helpful in realizing your dreams and goals.
Here is a challenge that will also move you to be closer to your dreams and goals if taken seriously. Make a list of ten things you have been putting off. It could be anything from getting a health examination, calling a friend or family member, to getting the car fixed and cleaning up the garbage, etc. And then try to develop the habit of doing them immediately!

Write ONE WORD for each blank on the Answer Sheet.
Science and engineering have varied meanings and different ways in which they can be understood, though the differences are not easy to tell.
First is science. This is nothing but the use of reasoning to know how things work and what causes the happenings.
Engineering is about the way some tools, machines, systems etc are made with the help of human resources, raw materials and some scientific techniques. Science is important for engineering. Engineering can’t be done without knowing the basic principles of the working of the device that one wants to make. For example, if one wants to make a fan and they do not know how a fan works, then it is practically impossible for them to do so. Thus knowing how the fan works is science and making a fan is engineering.
Then comes the most important factor, the technology. Technology is always evolving with the help of the existing science and engineering techniques. It has to satisfy the usage of it by the consumers and safety of the people. For example, science will tell people the rules or the working of the equipment, engineering techniques will tell them how the equipment is made and the technology will consider both the above factors to create the same equipment but in a different way or using a different technique with some alterations(改变) giving birth to newfound technology. Thus again, science and engineering are important for technology to take place and the people who undertake the activities of science and technology are considered technologists.
All these three above discussed factors are important when one undertakes some kind of research work.
Some people think that technology is nothing but the way science is applied. If they make good investment in the field of science, then they would gain a lot from new technology. Thus, people start investing in many new ventures(项目)。
So we can see clear differences between science, technology and engineering. New technology is the best way to take a country to a higher economic position and to the path of fast growth. Technology requires the use of science and engineering as this is the best way to start and put the use of them into practice.
