BACKGROUND ART 10 [0002] Sucrose have been widely used as a sweetener because of its characteristics such as good sweetness, rich (full-bodied) taste, water retentivity, ability to give thickness and the like. In recent years, however, general health- consciousness and orientation to low calorie diet are making consumers avoid sucrose which can cause obesity and decayed teeth, especially in the area of beverages, desserts and other refreshments where low-calorie products are increasing. 15 [0003] Thus, various high intense sweeteners have been studied and developed as substitute sweeteners for su- crose. Among the high intense sweeteners, sucralose, which is 600 times sweeter than sucrose, is attracting attention since it is non-cariogenic and non-metabolizable, i.e., having no calorie. DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION 20 [0004] The present invention a composition containing sucralose which gives various properties to the composition. [0005] More specifically, the present invention relates to the compositions having various unique properties listed below, and the applications thereof. 25 I. Sweetening compositions II. Foods with a masked unpleasant smell and unpleasant taste III. Performance food compositions IV. Foods with improved flavors V. Preservatives and foods with improved quality of taste 30 VI. Flavor compositions with improved flavors BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION [0006] As represented by the formula (I), the sucralose for use in the present invention has a structure similar to 35 sucrose, specifically, the sucrose molecule in which three hydroxy groups at 1 position and 6 position of a fructose residue and 4 position in a glucose residue are substituted by chlorine molecules (4,1',6'-trichloro-galactosucrose, chemical name: 1,6-dichloro-1,6-dideoxy-β-D-fructofuranosyl-4-chloro-4-deoxy-α-D-garactopyranoside). The sucra- lose is a no-calorie and non-cariogenic intense sweetener which has good and about 600 times greater sweetness than sucrose (U.K. Patent No. 1543167). 40 45 50 [0007] The present invention including various embodiments mentioned below is based on the finding that the above sucralose exhibits specific properties by itself or in combination with other components. [0008] In the below, the present invention will be described referring to the embodiments carried out on the basis of 55 such properties of sucralose. [0009] In this specification, an oral composition means a product which is taken orally (also referred to as an edible product in this specification) and also a product which is used in the mouth. For example, seasonings, salt cured products, stewed foods and like food preparations and food including confections and beverages; oral medicines in- 3 EP 1 210 880 A1 cluding sugar-coated tablets, drops, troches, throat sprays and syrups; and mouth sprays and like oral refreshment, mouthwashes, gargles and dentifrices and like quasi-drugs for oral sterilization or oral cleansing. [0010] In this specification, by the term "other sweeteners" is meant sweet substances which are conventionally know or will possibly be known in the future. Examples of the sweet substances include α-glucosyltransferase-treated 5 stevia, α-cyclodextrin, β-cyclodextrin, aspartame, acesulfame potassium, N-acetylglucosamine, arabinose, alitame, isotrehalose, isomaltitol, isomaltooligosaccharide (isomaltose, isomaltotriose, panose, etc.), erythritol, oligo-N- acetylglucosamine, galactose, galactosylsucrose, galactosyllactose, galactopyranosyl (β1-3) galactopyranosyl (β1-4) glucopyranose, galactopyranosyl (β1-3) glucopyranose, galactopyranosyl (β1-6) galactopyranosyl (β1-4) glucopyran- ose, galactopyranosyl (β1-6) glucopyranose, glycyrrhiza extract (glycyrrhizin), xylitol, xylose, xylooligosaccharide (xy- 10 lotriose, xylobiose, etc.), glycerol, triammonium glycyrrhizinate, tripotassium glycyrrhizinate, trisodium glycyrrhizinate, diammonium glycyrrhizinate, dipotassium glycyrrhizinate, disodium glycyrrhizinate, curcurin, glucose, gentiooligosac- charide (gentiobiose, gentiotriose, gentiotetraose, etc.), saccharin, sodium saccharin, cyclamate, sucrose, stachyose, stevia extract, powdered stevia, dulcin, sorbitol, sorbose, thaumatin, Theander oligo saccharide, tenryocha extract, trehalulose trehalose, monellin, nigerooligosaccharide (nigerose, etc.), neotame, neotrehalose, palatinit, palatinose, 15 palatinosepalatinose oligosaccharide, palatinose syrup, fucose, fructooligosaccharide (kestose, nystose, etc.), fructo- syl transferase-treated stevia, fructofuranosyl nystose, Brazilian licorice extract, fructose, polydextrose, maltitol, mal- tose, maltosyl β-cyclodextrin, maltotetraitol, maltotriitol, maltooligosaccharide (maltotriose, tetraose, pentaose, hexa- ose, heptaose, etc.), mannitol, miracle fruit extract, melibiose, rakanka (Momordica grosvenori) extract, lactitol, lactu- lose, lactose, raffinose, rhamnose, ribose, isomerized corn syrup, reduced isomaltooligosaccharide, reduced xylo- 20 oligosaccharide, reduced gentiooligosaccharide, reduced malt sugar syrup, glucose syrup, hydrogenated glucose syr- up, enzymatically modified licorice, licorice hydrolysates, coupling sugar, soybean oligosaccharide, inverted sugar, glucose syrup, honey and like sweet substances. I. Sweetening composition 25 [0011] The inventions according to this embodiment was developed based on the findings that combining sucralose with specific saccharides or acids mitigates the rough tastes and lingering sweet aftertastes of the sucralose or other sweeteners and produces the sweetening composition having rich and full-bodied sweetness. Specifically, the present inventions are the sweetening compositions listed below. 30 [0012] (1) A sweetening composition comprising sucralose and at least one sweet substance selected from the group consisting of fructose, non-reducing disaccharide, sugar alcohol, beet oligosaccharide,

    央州日報 Oshu Nippo New Year's Special 1918 (P. 1) Greeting the New Year in a Country at War Silently passing, time presses forward over the turbulent weir of 1917, to enter the more quiet pool that is 1918. Here the stream emanates, and the big river flows again to the west, uncontrolled by valleys. If you follow that flow, you may encounter a rapid current that seems to crush the rocks. You may pass a place like a fairy tale where the river flows quietly and the flowers are laughing on both banks. You may come to a place where white clouds rise up from below your feet to form almost like a curtain hanging in front of you. Those who progress with the flow continue observing the prospects of the shores at every moment while avoiding danger, not completely satisfied with the tranquil flow of the spring, and willfully overcoming the obstacles that appear in front. This is similar to the way human beings live. There are daily lives, there are fights, and there is progress. Because human beings who live have hope for tomorrow, records of our progress become increasingly prominent year by year. The new phase of the world is pushed forward by two billion human beings who live in hope. Personal success is for the people who worked the best for their great hope. Let’s hope big. Do not give up. Looking back on past events, our hopes seem to have always been rather too small. As of the beginning of last year, who knew that Russia would stand in the path of democracy? Who would have thought that the way to friendly Japan-US relations could be found so quickly? With hope and effort, you can always have a path to move forward.

The authors discuss the background and characteristics of the popular Japanese children’s story, Momotaro, the storytelling art, kamishibai, and the card game, karuta, and consider their value as English teaching tools. They then describe how classes of public and private elementary school students were introduced to Momotaro in simplified English using kamishibai and karuta. Finally, based on their observations of the children during the lessons, the children’s responses to a survey, and the comments of parents who had watched a lesson, they analyze the effectiveness of this approach and consider the significance for Japanese children of sharing together the culture and customs of Japan using English.

Henry 2009 DEDICATION To Chisato, for walking together on the journey. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The University of Michigan was a rich and exciting environment for exploring Japanese literature. I am grateful for a lively cohort to have shared the journey with including Alex Bates, Hoyt Long, Jan Leuchtenberger, Jeremy Robinson, Kristina Vassil, and Bob Rama. Graduate students ahead of and behind me in the program, including Timothy Van Compernolle, David Rosenfeld, Atsuko Ueda, Mimi Plauché, and Jason Herlands, have been generous with both helpful advice and criticism. Michigan’s Asia Library has been an unparalleled resource and I have appreciated the guidance of librarian Kenji Niki’s guidance through its deep stacks. Professor Ken K. Ito’s seminars on modern Japanese literature pushed me intellectually, opened me to the joys of Japanese fiction, and the ethical responsibilities of the critic. Most of whatever intellectual growth I was able to achieve during my graduate study was as a direct result of preparing for and participating in his rigorous class sessions. Professor Esperanza Ramirez-Christensen consistently shared with us the heart of a poet and the probing mind of an intellectual of the first order. Professor Leslie Pincus’ seminars in Japanese history were exciting as models of scholarly dialogue.
