              Giving gifts is not a normal part of Britain business culture.Indeed,British business colleagues are qoite likely to feel embarrassed to receive any gift at all.The only exception would be at the conclusion of a desl when it might be appropriate to give a unique souvenir to mark the occasion.Such items might be gold,silver,or porcelain with a suitable inscriptiop.A-gain,to avoid embarrassment on the part of the recipient,the object must be restrained,tasteful,and not too expensive.
              Small gifts such as a lpen Or a book would be suitable gifts of genuine gratitude,and flowers or wine suffice to thank junior colleagues for their services.
              Ahernatively,it will often be appreciated if you invite your hosts,or others yoU wish to thank,out for a meal or tO the theatre.
              It is always good form to buy a round of drinks for your colleagues after work.This is also the most common way of celebrating someone's birthday.
              Business gifts are never exchanged at Christmas but it may be appropriate to send a card,particularly as an.expression of thanks to your business associates but also as a means of maintaining valuable contacts.Bear in mind that the UK postal services was founded at about the same time as the old railways so ensure that your cards are mailed in good time.
              If you are invited to a British home,it is standard practice to bring wine,flowers or chocolate for your hosts.The usual European warnings apply when giving flowers:no red roses or white lilies.
              If you know that you are going to stay with a family,it is a good idea to bring something             .If you are unprepared,then your time in your host's house should allow you to think of something they would really appreciate even if you have to mail it from home on your return.

            • 2. A.There are few statues in the Middle East.
              B.Art is a good means for people to know about religions.
              C.Artists express their feelings and opinions in their works.
              D.People know more about our culture through learning art history.
              E.Art is more objective than history itself.
              F.Art history provides information of different places and people.

              80.A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes.Most typical history courses concentrate on politics,economics and war.But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people,but also religious beliefs,emotions,and psychology.    
              81.In addition,information about the daily activities of our ancestors-or of people very different from our own-can be provided by art.In short,art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place,and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.    
              82.In history books,objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is,facts about politics are given,but opinions are not expressed.Art,on the other hand,is subjective:it reflects emotions and opinions.The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly"political"artist.In his well-known painting The Third of May 1808,he criticized the Spanish government for its misuse of power over people.Over a hundred years later,symbolic images were used in Pablo Picasso's Guernica to express the horror of war.Meanwhile,on another continent,the powerful paintings of Diego Rivera,Jose Clemente Orozco,and David Alfaro Siqueiros-as well as the works of Alfredo Ramos Martins-depicted these Mexican artists'deep anger and sadness about social problems.    
              83.In the same way,art can reflect a culture's religious beliefs.For hundreds of years in Europe,religious art was almost the only type of art that existed.Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that depicted people and stories from the Bible.Although most people couldn't read,they could still understand biblical stories in the pictures on church walls.    
              84.By contrast,one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images.This reflects the Islamic belief that status are unholy.

              The World Expo (short for"exposition") is known as World's Fair.And it is a large,(41)    ,non-commercial exposition that has been held since the mid-19th century.
              The World Expo is the third largest(42)     in the world in terms of economic and cultural impact,after the FIFA World Expo Cup and the Olympic Games.In fact,the World Expo is regarded as the"Olympic Games of the (43)    ,science and technology."
              The hosting of the World Expo must be (44)     for by a country and approved by the international World Expo committee.Expo aims to(45)      the exchange of ideas and development of the world economy,culture,science and technology,to allow exhibitors to publicize and display their (46)      and improve international (47)    
              Exhibitions are not a recent invention.They (48)     back to the times when large-scale markets were (49)      held in cities which attracted visitors and brought prosperity because they were located at major trade route intersections.
            • 4. In the old days of publishing,getting your manuscript into the hands of an editor often meant mailing the unsolicited finished product to the offices of literary agents or editors,where it would receive a cursory look from an editorial assistant-or none at all.
              A modern version of the slush pile is the online"writing community,"a Web site where aspiring novelists can post their ideas,writing samples or manuscripts and open them to comments and reviews from strangers.On Tuesday Penguin Group USA,the publisher of Tom Clancy,Kathryn Stockett and Nora Roberts,will unveil its own venture,Book Country,a Web site for writers of genre fiction.In its initial phase Book Country will allow writers to post their own work-whether it's an opening chapter or a full manuscript-and receive critiques from other users,who can comment on points like character development,pacing and dialogue.Later this summer the site will generate revenue by allowing users to self-publish their books for a fee by ordering printed copies.(The books will bear the stamp of Book Country,not Penguin,and the site is considered a separate operation from Penguin.) The site will also explain the business of finding an agent,marketing and promoting a book,using social media and handling digital and subsidiary rights.
              Penguin hopes the site will attract agents,editors and publishers scouting for new talent,and allow writers to produce work with more polish and direction than they could otherwise.The project has been spearheaded by Molly Barton,the director of business development for Penguin and the president of Book Country."One of the things I remember really clearly from my early editorial experiences was this feeling of guilt,"Ms.Barton said in an interview."I would read submissions and not be able to help the writer because we couldn't find a place for them on the list that I was acquiring for.And I kept feeling that there was something we could do on the Internet to really help writers each other."
