Leisure Activities in Japan

    The use of leisure time has become an ever greater focus of attention in Japan, as a result of higher A22 incomes, expanding leisure time and a growing interest in nature. This trend is reflected in the increasing popularity of sports and recreational activities. Examples of recently developed leisure activities include boating, yachting and marine sports on Lake Inawashiro and off the Pacific Coast, paragliding and family autocamping in the mountains of the Aizu region.

    Japanese A23 abundant nature, combined with extensive leisure facilities, attracts sports and leisure-minded people all year round. There are three national parks in Kyushu providing excellent opportunities for sports and leisure activities. A number of golf A24 courses take full advantage of extensive land areas and superb natural settings. Each year this region sees a rise A25 in the number of ski resorts, featuring resort hotels and other facilities. And, as one of the most attractive hot spring areas in Japan, Kyushu A26 draws a large number of visitors from around the country.

    Kyushu is upgrading and enlarging its high-quality resort facilities to meet the demand A27 for increased leisure opportunities, while at the same time giving full consideration to nature preservation. It is hoped that this rapid development can be A28 maintained in the future.

8. Changing influence

A. Boating can be a very relaxing pastime. It isn’t entirely limited to just cruising around. You can also set up water-skis and enjoy water-skiing. While boating is fun, however, it is also a hobby where you need to be very careful. Too many boaters die each year, mainly by falling overboard and drowning. It is important that you use common sense as well as always take lifejackets with you.

B. Painting is one of the most relaxing pastimes. Most people take up painting in oils or watercolours, others start with acrylics or pastels, but whatever your choice, it will be the beginning of a voyage of discovery. When you look at things that are familiar to you, you’ll see them in a different light. Learning something new almost every day will encourage you to keep going.

C. Fishing can be enjoyed at any age, individually or in groups, with little more investment than a cane pole and a few hooks. Within an hour from most homes, there is usually a place to fish. Perhaps the greatest appeal in fishing is the opportunity to get outdoors and have a rest. It’s an enjoyable pastime that can be used as a way to clear your head and forget about everyday problems.

D. For centuries gardening has been an extremely popular pastime across the British Isles and here you can find some of the most superb garden exhibits in the world. For countless people, garden­ing offers a peaceful and relaxing pastime that can create some very picturesque or beneficial results, depending on the kind of gardening taken up. Caring for your own garden will bring enjoy­ment and save you money at the grocery store.

E. Parents and teachers worry about games having negative effects on children and a great deal has been written about games lead­ing to violent behaviour and addiction. However, not everything about gaming is negative. Games help children who are ill or have injuries. Absorption in a game distracts the mind from pain and discomfort. Many hospitals are encouraging children and others undergoing painful treatments to play games.

F. In these virtual worlds, you can choose an avatar or character that represents you. The latest games offer the ability to customize these characters in unlimited ways; you can change your char­acter’s hairstyle, facial features, size, weight, and clothing. How about the ability to change your voice to match your online per­sonality? That is currently not a standard feature in games but technology will provide a solution.

G. Gaming is enjoying a revolution. Not just in the fact that it is a growing business in itself, but also that it is rapidly becoming a leading means for communication and social interaction among people from all over the world. Young adults are at the forefront of the future for gaming and recent research shows that the role of gaming in young adults’ lives is evolving rapidly.

There were three of them. There were four of us, and April lay on the campsite and on the river. This was Deer Lodge on the Pine River in New Hampshire. Brother Bentley’s father had found this place sometime after the First World War, a foreign affair that had seriously done him no good but he found solitude abounding here. Now we were here, post World War II, post Korean War, Vietnam War on the brink. Peace was everywhere about us, in the riot of young leaves, in the spree of bird confusion and chatter, in the struggle of pre-dawn animals for the start of a new day.

We had pitched our camp in the near darkness, Ed LeBlanc, Brother Bentley, Walter Ruszkowski and myself. A dozen or more years we had been here and seen no one. Now, into our campsite deep in the forest came an old van. Two elderly men sat in the front seat, felt hats at the slouch and decorated with an assortment of tied flies. ‘Morn­ing, been yet?’ one of them said as he pulled his boots up from the folds at his knees. His hands were large, the fingers long and I could picture them in a shop barn working a primal plane across the face of a maple board.

‘Barely had coffee,’ Ed LeBlanc said, the most vocal of the four of us, quickest at friendship, at shaking hands. ‘We’ve got a whole pot almost. Have what you want.’ The pot was pointed out sitting on a hunk of grill across the stones of our fire, flames licking lightly at its sides. When we fished the Pine River, coffee was the glue, the morning glue, the late evening glue, even though we’d often unearth our beer from a natural cooler in early evening. Camp coffee has a ritual. It is thick, it is potboiled over a squaw-pine fire, it is strong enough to wake the demon in you. But into that pot has to go fresh eggshells to hold the grounds down, give coffee a taste of history, a sense of place. That means at least one egg must be cracked open for its shells. I suspect that’s where ‘scrambled eggs’ originated, from some camp like ours.

‘You’re early enough for eggs and bacon if you need a start.’ Eddie added, his invitation tossed kindly into the morning air. ‘We have hot cakes and home fries, if you want.’ ‘Been there already,’ the other man said, his weaponry also noted by us, a little more orderly in its presen­tation, including an old Boy Scout sash across his chest and the galaxy of flies in supreme positioning. They were old Yankees, in the face and frame, the pair of them undoubtedly brothers. They were taller than we were, no fat on their frames, wide-shouldered, big-handed, barely coming out of their reserve, but fishermen. That fact alone would win any of us over.

Then the pounding came from inside the truck and the voice of authority from some place in space, some regal spot in the universe. ‘I’m not sitting here the livelong day whilst you boys gab away.’ ‘Com­ing, pa,’ one of them said, the most orderly one. They pulled open the back doors of the van, swung them wide, to show His Venerable Self, ageless, white-bearded, felt hat too loaded with an arsenal of flies, sitting on a white wicker rocker. Across his lap he held three delicate fly rods, old as him, thin, bamboo in colour, probably too slight for a lake’s three-pounder.

Rods were taken from the caring hands and His Venerable Self was lifted from the truck and set by our campfire. The old one looked about the campsite, noted clothes drying from a previous day’s rain, order of equipment and supplies aligned the way we always kept them, the canvas of our tent taut and true in its expanse, our fishing rods off the ground and placed atop the flyleaf so as not to tempt raccoons with smelly cork handles, no garbage in sight. He nodded. We had passed muster.

‘You the ones leave it cleaner than you find it every year. We knew something about you. Never disturbed you before. But we share the good spots.’ He looked closely at Brother Bentley, nodded a kind of recognition. ‘Your daddy ever fish here, son?’ Brother must have passed through the years in a hurry, remembering his father bringing him here as a boy. ‘A ways back,’ Brother said in his clipped North Saugus fashion, outlander, specific, no waste in his words.

Playing chess

Surfing

Photography

‘Well, we have nothing to do. Why don’t we take up a new hobby?’

‘Great idea! Do you have any suggestions?’

‘Let me think! Why not start playing chess? It’s a very interesting and clever game. I think it’s a perfect way to spend our free time and not to feel bored. And perhaps in the future we’ll be able to win some competitions.’

‘I can’t agree with you, Γm afraid. It’s not easy to learn how to play chess well. We need a teacher or at least we should join a chess club. Unfortunately, we have no chess club nearby.’

‘It’s a pity that we have no chess club but I can ask my Dad to teach us. He plays chess rather well.’

‘I don’t think your Dad will have enough free time to teach us. He is a very busy person. What about collecting stamps from differ­ent countries? It’s a very educational hobby because stamps can tell you a lot about the history of the country they are from. Besides, Γve already got several stamps from France and it’s a good start for our collection. I know that you travel a lot so in the future we can have a good collection. What’s your opinion?’

‘Oh, no! I hate collecting. Collections usually take up a lot of space and they collect dust. Besides, collecting stamps doesn’t seem to be an interesting idea because they will soon disappear. Who sends letters now that we have the Internet and e-mail?’

‘That’s not a problem. If stamps go out of use, our collection will be very valuable and we can earn a lot of money if we sell it.’

‘It’s unlikely that we’ll have a large collection of stamps by the time they disappear. Anyway, collecting is boring.’

‘Well, I agree with you. What do you suggest then?’

‘As for me, I prefer active hobbies. How about surfing? There is a good surf club in our town. It’s a very exciting and challenging hobby. Not everyone can cope with it. Besides, it’s a good way to keep fit and to stay healthy, isn’t it?’

. Tm not so sure. In my opinion, it’s a very dangerous hobby and it requires a lot of training. In addition, we’ll need special equipment and it can be rather expensive. I’m afraid I won’t be able to afford it. If you want an active hobby, let’s start photography. My parents gave me a very good camera for my birthday, so we needn’t buy anything else.’

‘However, we’ll need a special place where we can develop films and print our photos.’

‘There’s no need to develop films because my camera is digital. We can watch our photos on my computer, choose the best ones and print them on my printer.’

‘It’s a good idea! Perhaps, we could publish our photos in different magazines and became famous.’

‘You are right! Besides, some of our classmates are fond of pho­tography too, so we can organise a special exhibition at school for our parents.’

‘Great! They will be proud of our abilities!’

‘So what shall we choose?’

‘Let’s agree on photography. It’s the best hobby for us. I think I’ll buy a camera, too.’

Volcanoes have also shaped the Earth’s landscape. Many of our mountains, islands, and plains have been built by volcanic eruptions.

The Earth’s crust is broken into plates B _____ .

There are 16 major plates. These rigid plates float on a softer layer of rock in the Earth’s mantle. As the plates move about they push together or pull apart. Most volcanoes are located near the edges of plates.

Deep within the Earth it is so hot that some rocks slowly melt and become a thick flowing substance called magma.

C _____ , magma rises and collects in magma chambers. Eventually some of the magma pushes through vents and fissures in the Earth’s surface. A volcanic erup-tion occurs! Magma that has erupted is called lava.

Some volcanic eruptions are explosive and others are not. How explosive an eruption is depends on how runny or sticky the magma is. If magma is thin and runny, gases can escape easily from it. D _____ , it flows out of the volcano. Lava flows rarely kill people, because they move slowly enough for people to get out of their way. Lava flows, however, can cause considerable destruction to buildings in their path.

A new or old kind of transportation?

There are a lot of people who believe that electric vehicles are the future of our transportation. However, others suppose that it’s the wrong and long-running way of developing car industry. But the Potential of electric cars seems to be higher now than ever before.

Traditional automakers including General Motors, Volkswagen, Daimler AG, and others are all investing heavily in electric vehicles. ‘And, of course, it’s Tesla Motors Company which has built its entire business off of battery powered cars.

The history of the electric car stretches way, way back, about 200 years at this point. The electric car has a longer history than both the steam and gasoline-powered car, and came about two decades after the first steam locomotives hit the rails.

It’s hard to relate the invention of the electric car to only one inventor. But it is supposed that Hungarian Benedictine priest and inventor Anyos Jedlik was the first person to try strapping an electric engine to four wheels in 1828. It’s important to understand that it was a series of breakthroughs. The step from the battery to the electric motor in the 1800s led to the first electric vehicle on the road.

As electric vehicles came onto the market, so did a new type of vehicle. It was the gasoline-powered car. It also had their faults. It required a lot of manual effort to drive, for example, changing gears was not easy and they needed to be started with a hand crank. Besides, they were noisy, and their exhaust was unpleasant.

On the other hand, electric cars didn’t have any of the issues associated with steam or gasoline. By the year 1900, they werе actually gaining popularity with urban residents, especially women, who appreciated the simplicity, quietness and lack of smelly smoke. They were perfect for short trips around the city, and poor road conditions outside cities meant few cars of any type could venture farther.

A lot of innovators were exploring ways to improve the technology at that time. For example, Ferdinand Porsche invented an electric car called the P1 in 1898. At the same time, he created the world’s first hybrid electric car. It is a vehicle that is powered by electricity and a gas engine. Thomas Edison thought electric vehicles were the superior technology and worked to build a better electric vehicle battery.

Why everything changed? When Henry Ford introduced the mass-produced and gas-powered Model T in 1908, it symbolized ‘a death to the electric car. This model was an affordable and reliable car to the masses that outperformed electric cars in speed and range. While a gasoline car cost only $650 the average electric one was sold for $1,750.

By 1935 almost all road-going electric vehicles disappeared. By the mid-70s car makers began exploring options for alternative fuel vehicles, including electric cars. But these vehicles suffered from drawbacks compared to gasoline-powered cars. So, the interest in them began to

fade once again.

Not too much happened in the electric car arena in the 1990s. The EV1 and the Prius appeared at market. After a while Silicon Valleу companies like Tesla are getting into the game. And it seems now that the time of the electric car has finally come. The electric cars from Elon Musk’s Tesla Company made the electric car reanimated and put back into the collective eye of the public.

To round out this storyline, consumers now have more choices than ever when it comes to buying an electric vehicle. It’s hard to tell where the future will take electric vehicles, but it’s clear they hold a lot of potential for creating a more sustainable future.

The electric car was invented …

1) after the steam car.

2) after the gasoline-powered car.

3) before the gasoline-powered car.

4) before the first steam locomotives.

At the same time, he created the world’s first hybrid electric car. It is a vehicle that is powered by electricity and a gas engine. Thomas Edison thought electric vehicles were the superior technology and worked to build a better electric vehicle battery.

Why everything changed? When Henry Ford introduced the mass-produced and gas-powered Model T in 1908, it symbolized ‘a death to the electric car. This model was an affordable and reliable car to the masses that outperformed electric cars in speed and range. While a gasoline car cost only $650 the average electric one was sold for $1,750.

By 1935 almost all road-going electric vehicles disappeared. By the mid-70s car makers began exploring options for alternative fuel vehicles, including electric cars. But these vehicles suffered from drawbacks compared to gasoline-powered cars. So, the interest in them began to

fade once again.

Not too much happened in the electric car arena in the 1990s. The EV1 and the Prius appeared at market. After a while Silicon Valleу companies like Tesla are getting into the game. And it seems now that the time of the electric car has finally come. The electric cars from Elon Musk’s Tesla Company made the electric car reanimated and put back into the collective eye of the public.

To round out this storyline, consumers now have more choices than ever when it comes to buying an electric vehicle. It’s hard to tell where the future will take electric vehicles, but it’s clear they hold a lot of potential for creating a more sustainable future.

How did Henry Ford influence the development of car industry?

1) He made up a new type of the electric car.

2) He made the electric car more expensive.

3) He made the gas-powered car more prestigious.

4) He made the gas-powered car available for more people.

A new or old kind of transportation?

There are a lot of people who believe that electric vehicles are the future of our transportation. However, others suppose that it’s the wrong and long-running way of developing car industry. But the Potential of electric cars seems to be higher now than ever before.

Traditional automakers including General Motors, Volkswagen, Daimler AG, and others are all investing heavily in electric vehicles. ‘And, of course, it’s Tesla Motors Company which has built its entire business off of battery powered cars.

The history of the electric car stretches way, way back, about 200 years at this point. The electric car has a longer history than both the steam and gasoline-powered car, and came about two decades after the first steam locomotives hit the rails.

It’s hard to relate the invention of the electric car to only one inventor. But it is supposed that Hungarian Benedictine priest and inventor Anyos Jedlik was the first person to try strapping an electric engine to four wheels in 1828. It’s important to understand that it was a series of breakthroughs. The step from the battery to the electric motor in the 1800s led to the first electric vehicle on the road.

As electric vehicles came onto the market, so did a new type of vehicle. It was the gasoline-powered car. It also had their faults. It required a lot of manual effort to drive, for example, changing gears was not easy and they needed to be started with a hand crank. Besides, they were noisy, and their exhaust was unpleasant.

On the other hand, electric cars didn’t have any of the issues associated with steam or gasoline. By the year 1900, they werе actually gaining popularity with urban residents, especially women, who appreciated the simplicity, quietness and lack of smelly smoke. They were perfect for short trips around the city, and poor road conditions outside cities meant few cars of any type could venture farther.

By a strange coincidence, the same day that the meteorite terrified the people of Chelyabinsk, another 50m-wide asteroid passed relatively close to Earth. Scientists were expecting that visit and know that the asteroid will return to fly close by us in 2046, but the Russian meteorite earlier in the day had been too small for anyone to spot.

Most scientists agree that comets and asteroids pose the biggest natural threat to human existence. It was probably a large asteroid or comet colliding with Earth which wiped out the dinosaurs about 65 million years ago. An enormous object, 10 to 16km in diameter, struck the Yucatan region of Mexico with the force of 100 megatons. That is the equivalent of one Hiroshima bomb for every person alive on Earth today
