学习啦在线学习网 The Republic of the Fiji Islands is an island nation in the South Pacific Ocean about 2,000 km northeast of New Zealand’s North Island. Fiji consists of 322 islands (of which 106 are inhabited) and 522 smaller islets. The climate in Fiji is tropical marine and warm most of the year round with minimal extremes. The island state is inhabited by the native Fijians and other minorities like the Indo-Fijians and other smaller groups. The religion in Fiji is also diverse and every religious group gets equal opportunities.
The Fijians consider their national costume a representative of the culture of Fiji. The national costume of Fiji in the earlier times used to be loin cloths for men and grass skirts for women. The skirt lengths would determine the status of a woman. A single woman used to wear short skirts but long skirts had to be worn by married women. The national dress of the Fijians now is Sulu. The Sulu resembles a skirt and both genders wear it.
The Fijians are pretty easy-going, but if you are invited into a village, wear simple clothing and take off your hat (wearing one is an insult to the chief). Leave your shoes outside the door when entering a home and keep in mind that it’s also insulting to touch someone’s head. When visiting a village, it is customary to present a gift of kava (卡瓦酒). The gift will cost less than F for a half kilo. If you are accompanied by a guide, he or she will prepare that. Be prepared to shake hands and answer personal questions like, where are you from, are you married, how many children do you have and so on.

学习啦在线学习网 From 1993 to 1998, I was a seller for Chevrolet. Each week I would take a look at their used cars that were for sale. I would fix cracks in leather, cigarette burns in fabric, re-color carpets that had stains (污点), repair windshields that had been hit, etc.
学习啦在线学习网 Every week I would walk into this specific Chevrolet dealer’s used car lot to see what the used cars needed in the way of repairs. The manager’s wife was named Cindy. Cindy was always very rude, treating me like she was better than me. I was always positive and kind, but that never seemed to work with her.
One day she accused (指责) me of charging her to dye the carpet in a mini-van that had a stain on the carpet. She had driven the van for the weekend and said the stain was not there. Just trying to continually be aggressive without cause, she accused me in front of all her colleagues that day.
学习啦在线学习网 However, instead of being angry at being looked upon as someone that was not honest, I went to a florist and spent almost 0 on red roses and put them in a nice basket. I picked out a card, and stated that I was sorry for the misunderstanding and that I did not ever have the intention of making her angry.
The following week, I walked into her office like I did every week with my list of used cars that needed some attention before they were sold and said, “Hi, Cindy,” with my usual happy and up-beat attitude. She gave me a big smile and said, “You bought me flowers.” Every week thereafter she would always make it a point to say, “Hey, Mike, how are you doing?” or “Nice to see you, how are you?”
学习啦在线学习网 This woman began to change, perhaps because of this small act of kindness. It was actually so nice to see Cindy’s whole way of being — change with me. She was always very kind, and would always have a big smile when I walked into her office.
学习啦在线学习网 I guess people can change with a little bit of kindness!

Based on a scientific survey of 18- to 30-year-olds, researchers from MSU’s Eli Broad Graduate School of Management found that young consumers will not pay an extra high price for an automobile simply because it is environmentally friendly. Instead, the determining factor — by far — is fuel efficiency (效率).
Clay Voorhees, a researcher, said the findings indicate an eco-savvy generation is challenging the economic reality of paying bills. “The previous assumption (假想) that they are a spoiled generation couldn’t be further from the truth,” Voorhees said. “Generation Y is maturing into a pragmatic (务实的) generation that not only wants to do the right thing for the environment but also has real economic concerns.”
According to the study, young consumers will pay only class="main">
