In terms of gas emission, EVs will us reduce the amount of carbon dioxides. However, I cannot make sure that building such cars itself is good for the environment as how production can affect it has not been discussed so much.

I do not think that holding large-sized international sports events is not profitable, given the recent economic conditions and international affiars. Also, I wonder if such manmade heritages really work for people's practical lives.

Not for doing job, but for going to the workplace. In the office, airconditing systems are working so I can do my job comfortably as usual. However, commuting is under the different condition. The outside soon gets more than 30 degrees in the morning, the inside of my car is warmed up, and driving to my workplace makes me sweat until the inside gets cooler.

I really hope the autum weather comes soon.

If I won't marry someone, I will continue working beyond the age limit, which is 65 years old as of today. Since I'm not so outgoing to others, I might be isolated or have less and less communication with neighbors in my community if I quit my job soon after the retirement age. Instead, being as a worker requires person to person communication, which is important source for not being dementia.

Little efforts for reducing the risk of natural disasters are overwhelmed by our demand for modernization and convenience for everyday lives.

I do not care buying foods and beverages from the area. I often buy fruits and vegetables. Especially, the quality of fruits such as peach is as delicious as the ones in Yamanashi, which is famous for fruits produce.

If the foods and beverages had some problems affecting to our health, it would be possible that we had already had some negative symptoms.

Also, any foods have passed strict sanitation check before their shipping to the markets, so nothing need to be concerned.

The Railway Museum, which I've never visited though, is one of the most famous museums in Japan. It is located in Saitama Pref. You can get there in a few minutes by train from Omiya station. There are variety of attractions that anyone can enjoy regardless of ages. First, 42 real mock-up trains including Shinkansen and Steam Locomotives, are exhibited at the site. Second, you can experience the field of railway company through simulator and workshop. Third, you can learn the history of how Japanese railway system have developed from many points of views such as science. Not only adults but also children can enjoy through a day. When you are tired walking around in the museum, you can rest at the cafes and restaurants. At the restaurant, ekiben(a special lunch box that can only available at the station) can be bought.

Highly recommend.

Kinugawa(Tochigi pref.) and Chichibu(Saitama pref.) are my favorite. Both of them are near Tokyo area, apporximately within 90 to 120 minutes by train, so we are able to get there anytime easily compared to some resort areas. We can be relaxed in the cooler temperature there. At Kinugawa area, there are lots of hot springs to try. At Chichibu area, we can enjoy many kinds of nature activities such as keiryu-kudari(rafting). Moreover, the city is famous for its gourmet like waraji-katsu(pork cutlet which is the same size as regular sandal) and kakigoori(shaved ice, with a variety of flavors).

Very afraid of not being able to get paid in the future, though I have been paying a portion of salary to the Pension Service.

They are useful in a broad sense. I often see negative reviews on the product I want to buy. I think customers writing negative reviews seem to be telling a truth. On the other hand, those writing positive reviews appear to be posting fake reviews, though most of them are telling a truth. Also negative reviews show specifications in detail. Therefore such information can be a good source of my decison on the product.

Absolutely it is hotter than it was decade ago. I did not imagine such a scorching heat. I would say that getting more than 30 degrees Celsius was an abnormal weather. However, we often say that 30 degrees can be bearable condition nowadays.

I think each and every person should regulate how to use AI.

I like it. I often eat tofu after cooling it off in the refrigerator. I add a small amount of soy sauce on tofu, making it great match of the taste of tofu. Also, tofu is used as many forms, such as 麻婆豆腐. Tofu goes well with lots of cuisine.

Furthermore, tofu can be changed into sweets. Recently, we see many kinds of tofu sweets, such as ma-cha taste and chocolate taste. At first, it might look weird to you. However, once you taste it, you can be obsessed with the unique taste and texture of tofu.

I've never thought of them, which is somewhat shame for me as a Japanese citizen. Manholes are naturally blend in our everyday life, but I need to rethink of it's importance.

I don't think they had a substantial conclusion for the meeting since Japanese and international media have not pick up the topic about the results of the summit so much.

I think one of the easiest way to solve this problem is that the company require extra fee for passengers' belongings based on the numbers of them. Or providing distribution service for the second baggages.

The quality of AI's and robots' performance has been improved rapidly compared with that decades ago. However, AI and robot are just the tool to push effectiveness of our job or lifestyle. We are the user of advantages of them, so I'm not afraid of being our job take place by AI and robots.

Face to face conversation requires making eye contacts, which are very important element of building up good or deep relationship. Also, tone of voice and pause between conversation are real. However, online talks lack them, giving less impression each other. When people want to show their seriousness or sincerity, having person-to-person communication is more effective than doing it through the Internet.

From my standpoint, it's easier and faster to make relationship with people through the social media. It is much easier to judge whether or not someone matches my needs before meeting each other. If the person matches my personality, I will start to send messages without hesitation. If it were not for social sites, starting and ending romantic relationship would be more difficult than before.

I've never used it, but I want to. Such AI tools are still used as a database now, so they are not able to have a conversation based on their self-conscious. However, if they are improved to have conscious and sense of reaction as human, I will use them.

One of the pros is that employees will be more relaxed enjoying their time on each day off. According to some research, no differences in productivity can be found between workers who took two days off and those who took three. The cons, on the other hand, will be an increase in energy consumption.

Not bad, what is more, I'm proud of how Japanese fans do for the games. Songs and cheers are united to encourage players to do their best. Also, they seldom show their disappointment to the players and opponents. Their politeness in cheering is often praised in the media from lots of countries. Therefore, it's worth praising.

Unlike the professional baseball league in Japan, high school baseball tournament might not require for the taste of entertainment. However, some degrees of expressions need to be welcomed.

I think Japan has. The media focus the issue on whether Japanese government makes apology for what former one has done. However, the most important thing is keep what happened during WWⅡ, and also we need to pass it down to the next generations. In that process, we are able to think about the problem again with younger ones, and hopoefully we find keys to the problem. Just making apologies do not solve any problems in a deeper level.

Depending on what the workers do for. If things they do for their business during commute, times for their work need to be counted as a working time.

I trust the mainstream media the most. Since the information sources are mostly transparent, what we get from such media can be trusted. On the other hand, lots of people can be involved in the social media. We are able to get the newest information anywhere and anytime. However, such information often come from unidentified sources in order to protect privacy of people related to the information sources. Therefore, wrong data can also widespread. Therefore, I cannot say the social media is trusted.

It was the day when I was a first year in high school. I thought the first shock was the beginning of the end of my life. Buildings, one of which I was in, sway back and forth, the classrooms were filled with screams and rattling sounds. It was the most furious thing that I have ever experienced.

After the shock, I wanted to go back home since I was not able to get contacts with my family member. Fortunately, my friend's relative took me to the town where I lived. During the ride to my home, I noticed that the power outage had occurred due to the quakes. No traffic lights and those at the sidewalks were not working, so it looked as if I were in a dead city.

Lots of people and I got trouble with many things later, but the moment of the big quakes and sceneries of darkness was really shock to me, which will never wash out from my memory.

I have been working as a teacher in a high school in Japan. From the teacher's perspective, it seems that parents tend to rely more on teachers in dealing with problems such as communication or how to find a way for their children's future. Such a tendency prevents parents from watching their children and from thinking carefully about their thoughts. Therefore, relationships between parents and children get weaker and weaker, causing them to have nobody to tell their emotional feeling and thoughts, including negative ones. I think such small negative thoughts accumulate, leading to criminal behaviors in the end.

One of the best hotels I can think of is "Kagaya" located in Ishikawa prefecture in Japan. It is very famous for its mind of hospitality, ranking at the first place for years in a row as the best accomodation for customer satisfaction. On the thing which surprised me was that the hotel's owner visit each room for greeting and showing his glatitudes. Facilities and meals are so fabulous that every cunstomer can enjoy and be satisfied.

Although I cannot say the exact reason why robots and AI will create more jobs than now, I'm sure they do. Some experts say they replace our current jobs, causing jobless for us. However, as AI and robots help us work efficiently, allowing us to use time for things which need our creativity. I think that depending too much on the uses of AI and robots for just our convenience will cause us jobless. On the other hand, we will be able to find new jobs and increase the ablility in a different field if we use them in a proper ways. How to use the convenient tools can change what we will be in the future.
