Answer:

It was the intention of Americans to tap into the Asia's rich market. However, because of Britain control over some parts of China after winning the Opium War, they were at loggerheads with America. American merchants went ahead to establish trade concession with China because they feared that Britain might gain total control of China. Because there was an interest in commerce, secured privileges and vital rights, and no colonies from Caleb Cushing, the United States were given all trading terms that were given to other powers. This did not enhance their cultural exchange with China because their intention was to threaten cultural integrity with the opium that was entering China at the time and the missionaries.

On the other hand, Perry agreed to allowing the United States to form coaling rights, consular relations, and very good treatment for sailors that had their ship wrecked. This was to allow for commercial trade. This was the beginning of modernization and industrialization in Japan.

To test whether people in bars drink more when they are in groups than when they are alone, researchers visited all the pubs in
loris [4]

The researchers kept their identities secret because, if they had revealed that their purpouse was to conduct an experiment on the behaviours of the people in the bar, it might have triggered that some people changed their usual attitudes because they know that their 'figures' will be kept in a record.

Maybe some people will drink less as they feel embarrased if some other person is testing how many beers they end. Others, might want to prove themselves 'strong' and drink much more than usual. People change their behaviour sometimes when they are aware that they are watched. This is called the observer effect.
