RECIPROCATING BEHAVIOR PART 04 039133
Increasingly, teachers characterize pupils as being unresponsive, re- luctant to participate in any but the most routine of activities and difficult to stimulate. Frequently such claims are qualified to mean that pupils are less likely to respond to teacher questions, requests or directions with the same enthusiasm as shown in previous years. Whatever the validity of these claims, it is true that many teachers are actively seeking "new" ways to stimulate pupils to participate enthusiastically in classroom activities. One important means for stimulating pupil involvement is through reciprocating behavior.

The movement of the continents set the stage for the present climatic epoch, with its particular distribution of mountain ranges and ocean currents. In Kenya's Great Rift Valley, a multinational seismic team detonates explosives in the cradle of civilization to probe a large scar in the earth's crust. Mt. Merapi constantly threatens to erupt, and while geophysicists, thanks to the plate theory can explain why eruptions occur, they can't predict when. After Tokyo was destroyed by a massive earth quake and fire in 1923, emergency rehearsal teams have worked to protect the city from future earthquakes and the tidal waves almost sure to follow. Today, satellites make possible a global watch on volcanoes. But as long as the mountains seethe with unpredictable menace, can we really claim to be in charge?
