It is true that Japanese women no longer have to walk three paces behind their husbands. But they are rarely with their long-working and late-drinking husbands anyway, so that was probably never all that much of a handicap. (1)General MacArthur, head of the American occupying forces, did manage to get Japanese women the vote in 1946 when the Americans were running things after Japan’s defeat in World War II. But since then there have been only half a dozen token women in the Japanese cabinet. (2)Among the world’s developed nations, no country has a lower proportion of women members in their parliament than Japan.

Traditionally Japanese buildings were made of wood, and castles were no exception. This meant they were not particularly solid or fire-resistant. Expansive grounds with extensive fortified outworks were therefore needed to protect the main building from attack. Often the perimeter of the castle grounds was circular or pentagonal, providing the greatest defensive opportunity for the least number of people. Evergreen trees were planted directly inside the walls to screen activities and provide a shield from incoming fire. These trees could also be used as weapons and as fuel in a time of siege.
The layout of a castle was crucial for its defense. It had to confuse the enemy and make access to the *main keep difficult. Compounds were arranged in such a way that if one compound was captured, it could be retaken from another line of defense. ( X ), mud walls, moats and gates were arranged in such a way as to create a mazelike effect, making it difficult for an enemy to overpower the castle. A series of gates and towers ( a ) which the defenders could fire down upon the attackers further hindered enemy penetration.
The castle was further protected by the town which inevitably grew up around it. Merchants and artisans were encouraged, usually through tax incentives, to live in the town and serve the needs of the castle. (1)Castle towns were strictly planned. The
daimyo and his chief vassals lived within the castle walls; the samurai lived in quarters in the immediate ( b ) of the castle, (2)the higher ranked being closest to the castle; and the merchants and artisans lived in the downtown. The downtown was divided into districts according to the trades; all the carpenters lived together, as did the fishmongers and the blacksmiths.

The philosophy behind Japanese food culture appears to be a ( A ) belief that no cooking is the best kind of cooking. This manifests itself in the treatment of fish in Japanese gastronomy. If fish are fresh enough, they ought to be sliced raw and served as sashimi. If they are not sufficiently fresh, the second best preparation is to grill them and sprinkle them with salt. Only when fish (1) ( as a, be cooked with, last, lose freshness, shoyu or miso, such flavorings as, they, would) resort. The thinking here is that the extensive use of cookery and processing methods is vulgar; the natural initial flavors of ingredients should be retained and eaten in the form as close as possible to nature.
Sashimi, carefully sliced raw fish meat to be eaten with wasabi and soy source, reflects (2) this value orientation most sharply. Most Japanese consider sashimi the simplest and therefore the most refined food. High-quality Japanese cuisine almost invariably includes sashimi.
5 originated from the culture of fermenting fish meat in pre-modern Japan and differed markedly from what we recognize as sushi today. The idea started with the knowledge that fish preserved with salt and mixed with cooked rice can be stored for a long period of time because rice ( C ) *lactic acid fermentation which raises its acidity level and thereby prevents bacteria from propagating. Rice grains used this way break down and become pasty and are normally inedible. ( D ) from rice, the preserved fish tastes sour and smells like strong cheese. This was the type of sushi available before the Edo period.
