This passage is rom Lydia Minatoya, The Strangeness of Beauty. ©1999 by Lydia Minatoya, The seting Japan in 1920. Chie and her daughter Naomi are members of the House of Fuji,a noble family Akira came directly, breaking all tradition. Was that it? Had he followed form—had he asked his mother to speak to his father to approach a tine go-between—would Chie have been more receptive? 5 He cameona winter's eve. He pounded on the door while a cold rain beat on the shuttered veranda, so at first Chie thought him only the wind. The maid knew better. Chie heard her soft scutling footsteps, the creak of the door. Then the maid brought a ro calling card to the drawing room, for Chie. Chie was reluctant to go to her guests pethaps she ‘was feeling too cozy. She and Naomi were reading at alow table set atop a charcoal brazier. A thick guilt spread over the sides ofthe table so their legs were 15 tucked inside with the heat. ‘Who is tat this hour, in this weather?” Chie questioned as she picked the name card off the maid's lacquer tray. ‘Shinoda, Akira, Kobe Dental College,” she read, 20 Naomi recognized the name. Chie heard a soft intake of air “I think you should go,” said Naomi Unauthorized copying or ese any pat ofthispage sega Akira was waiting in the entry. He was in his early twenties, slim and serious, wearing the black 25 miltary-style uniform of a student. Ashe owed—his hands hanging straight down, a black cap in one, a yellow oil-paper umbrella in the ‘other—Chie glanced beyond him. In the glistening surface of the courtyard’s rain-drenched paving stones, she saw his reflection like a dark double. “Madame,” said Akira “forgive my disruption, but I come with a matter of urgency.” His voice was soft, refined. [e straightened and stole a deferential peek at her face In the dim light his eyes shone with sincerity. (Chie felt herself starting to like him. ime inside, get out ofthis hasty night, Surely your business can wait for a moment or two.” 1 don't want to trouble you, Normally I would 40 approach you more properly but I've received word ofa position. P'vean opportunity to go to America, as dentist for Seattle's Fapanese community.” ‘Congratulations,” Chie said with amusement “Thats an opportunity, 'm sure. But how am 1 involved?” Eyen noting Naomi’ breathless reaction to the fhame card, Chie had no idea. Akira’s message, delivered like a formal speech, filed her with maternal amusement. You know how children speak 4o so earnestly, so hurriedly, so endearingly about things that have no importance in an adult’s mind? That’s how she viewed him, asa child. 28 E> 11 It was how she viewed Naomi.

Imagine! He, 45 thinks he can marry the Fuji heir and take her to ‘America all in the snap of his fingers!” Chie waited for Naomi’ ripe laughter. Naomi was silent.

This passage is adapted from Francis. Flynnand Gabriele S.Adams,"Money Can't Buy Love: Asymmetric Beliefs about Gift Price and Feelings of Appreciation.” 62008 by Elsevier Inc. Every day, millions of shoppers it the stores in full force—both onlineand on foot—searching frantically for the perfect gift. Last year, Americans Line spent over $30 billion at retail stores in the month of 5 December alone. Aside from purchasing holiday gilts, most people regularly buy presents for other ‘occasions throughout the year, including weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and baby showers. This frequent experience of gift-giving can, 10 engender ambivalent feelings in gift-givers. Many relish the opportunity to buy presents because ai- giving offers a powerful means ta build stronger bonds with one’s closest peers. Atthe same time, many dread the thought of buying gifs they worry 15 that their purchases will disappoint rather than delight the intended rec Anthropologists describe gift-giving as a positive social process, serving various political, religious, and psychologi 20 aless favorable view. According to Waldfogel (1993), Lif- giving represents an objective waste of resources People buy gifts that recipients would not choose to buy on their own, ort least not spend as much money to purchase (a phenomenon referred to as 25 “the deadweight loss of Christmas”). To wit, givers are likely to spend $100 to purchase a gift that receivers would spend only $80 to buy themselves, This “deadweight loss” suggests that gift-givers are not very good at predicting what gifts others will 20 appreciate. That in itself is not surprising. to social psychologists. Research has found that people often struggle to take account of others. perspectives— their insights are subject to egocentrism, social projection, and multiple attribution errors. 35 What is surprising is that gift-givers have considerable experience acting as both gift-givers and gilt-recipients, but nevertheless tend to overspend ‘each time they set out to purchase a meaningful gift. In the present research, we propose a unique 49 psychological explanation for this overspending problem—ie., that gift-givers equate how miich they. ‘nauthrize copying reuse any part hs page illegal 1 spend with how muich feeipients will appreciate the sift (the more expensive the gift the stronger a sitt-recipient’s feelings of appreciation). Although a 45 link between gift price and feelings of appreciation ‘ight seem intuitive to git-givers, such an assumption may be unfounded. Indeed, we propose thatgift-recipients will be less inclined to base their feelings of appreciation on the magnitude of a gift siy than givers assume. ‘Why do gift-givers assume that gift price is closely linked to gift-recipients' feelings of appreciation? Perhaps givers believe that bigger (ie., more expensive) gifts convey stronger signals of thoughtfulness and consideration. According to Camerer (1988) and others, gift-giving represents a symbolic ritual, whereby gift-givers attempt to signal their positive attitudes toward the intended recipient and their willingness to invest resources ina future 9 relationship. In this sense, gift-givers may be ‘motivated to spend more money ona gitt in order to send a “stronger signal” to their intended recipient. As for gift-recipients, they may not construe smaller and larger gilts as representing smaller and larger signals of thoughtfulness and consideration. ‘The notion of gilt-givers and gilt-recipients being tunable to account for the other party's perspective seems puzzling because people sip in and out of these roles every day, and, in some cases, multiple 70 times in the course of the same day. Yet, despite the extensive experience that people have as both givers and receivers, they ofien struggle to transfer information gained from one role (eg..asa giver) and apply it in another, complementary role (e.g. a a receiver). In theoretical terms, people fail to utilize information about their own preferences and experiences in order to produce more efficient ‘outcomes in their exchange relations. In practical terms, people spend hundreds of dollars each year on 4 gifts, bat somehow never learn to calibrate their gift expenditures according to personal insight. “ Givers Perceived and Recipients?

This passage Is adapted from J.D. Watson and F. H.C. Crick, *Genetical Implications of the Structure of Deoxyribonucleic ‘Acid” ©1953 by Nature Publishing Group. Watson and Crick deduced the structure of DNA using evidence from Rosalind Franklin and R.G. Gosling’s X-ray crystallography diagrams ‘of DNA and from Erwin Chargaff's data on the base ‘composition of DNA. The chemical formula of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is now well established. The molecule isa very long chain, the backbone of which consists of a tine regular alternation of stigar and phosphate groups. ‘To each sugar iSattached a nitrogenous base, which can be of four different types. Two of the possible bases—adenine and guanine—are purines, afd the, ‘other two—thymine and eytosine—are pyrimidines: So far as is known, the sequence of bases along the ro chain is irregular. The monomer unit, consisting of phosphate, sugar and base, is known asa nucleotide. ‘The first feature of our structure which is of biological interest i that it consists not of one chain, but of two. These two chains are both coiled around 15 a.common fiber axis Ithas often been assumed that since there was only one chain in the chemical formula there would only be one in the structural unit. However, the density, taken with the X-ray evidence, suggests very strongly that there are two. 20 The other biologically important feature is the ‘manner in which the two chains are held together. This is done by hydrogen bonds between the bases. ‘The bases are joined together in pairs, a single base from one chain being hydrogen-bonded to a single base from the other. The important point is that only certain pairs of bases will it into the structure. ‘One member ofa pair must be a purine and the other a pyrimidine in order to bridge between the two chains. [fa pair consisted of two purines, for 30 example, there would not be room for it. We believe that the bases.will be present almost entirely in their most probable forms. If this is true, the conditions for forming hydrogen bonds are more restrictive, and the only paits of bases possible are: a5 adenine with thymine, and guanine with cytosine. ‘Adenine, for example, can occur on either chain; but ‘when it does its partner on the other chain must always be thymine. ‘The phosphate-sugar backbone of our model is 40 completely regular, but any sequence of the pairs of bases can fit into the structure It follows that in a nator copying or rese of any pat oftispage yal ‘ 0, | long molecule many different permutations are possible, and it therefore seems likely that the precise sequence of bases is the code which carries the genetical information.
