February 1, 2008 at 11:57 AMHi chitttywang3, Here is supplemental advice on how to effectively use Google as a language tutor. Sentences or phrases appeared at the top of the first page is not necessarily always correct. You have to check the next several pages to see if you can find the same usages there. If there are many, their reliability should be high. Anyway, Google certainly is a good teacher.

February 1, 2008 at 9:21 AMJudging from your bitter tongue, you must be the chittywangwang I know. Anyway, I recommend you select a shorter password NEXT TIME, otherwise your already long ID name would possibly become longer. You need to be careful when using Google as a grammar tutor, because even native speakers sometimes make mistakes or use nonstandard/irregular Chinese, and there might be Chinese written by learners like us.

February 1, 2008 at 8:53 AMHi connie, The movie you mentioned above is “日本沉没” or “Japan Sinks”, which were made both in 1973 and 2006 respectively. The story is based on the Si-Fi novel of the same title written by a famous author in Japan, 小松左京. There was also its TV drama series more than thirty years ago. In a sense, Japanese people might be taking an “it can’t be helped” attitude and rather trying to “enjoy” earthquakes. Like it or not, they are part of Japanese culture!

February 1, 2008 at 7:46 AMPrices in Japan are much lower than they were a decade ago because of fierce competition and prolonged recession, and some commodities and services in China are already more expensive than those in Japan. Of course, on the whole you can still enjoy low prices, apart from the question of merchandise quality, here in China, especially in rural areas. I am sure that I cannot afford living in Shanghai for any length of time! Living in China for several years, I have already gotten accustomed to the way of life in China, therefore I always feel a little tense and out of place every time I go back to my country, Japan. I am not joking.

February 1, 2008 at 5:08 AM东京这个都市就是日本最大的定时炸弹。 我住在东京的时候体验过几次较大地震。 如果微弱地震也算的话就多得不计其数, 让我每晚都产生身体在床上晃悠的错觉。 过去地震的纪录表明东京在不久的将来 发生巨大致命地震的可能性非常大而且 有些日本科学者预测今后五十年内东京 发生直下型大地震的概率为百分之九十。 去过日本的中国朋友都说最怕的是地震, 这是理所当然我们日本人也绝对不习惯。 但日本自然灾害非常多却未必都是坏事, 因为地震和台风日本建筑技术相当发达。

January 31, 2008 at 5:59 AMHi yinyang, The legal situation here in China is very different from that in your country. For example, if you were arrested for having more than 1 kilo of heroin, alas, you would be sentenced to death for that. And you could also lose your life just because of huge-amount bribery, as a lesson to other bribe-takers, therefore your death is not necessarily meaningless in this country. How comforting!

February 2, 2008 at 2:14 AMHi goulniky, You are right. Hotel rates in Japan are still rather expensive. So, I recommend you try “a capsule hotel”, or a tube hotel, while traveling in Japan. Although your “room” is extraordinary small, their rates are pretty inexpensive. And they usually offer you good services and facilities, such as a clean sauna, a public bath, a restaurant, and a TV set even in your small tube. And more importantly, you can get a good chance to learn how dogs and cats feel in their small cages.
