I browsed in the internet all day long. honestly i'm a NEET because i didnt get a job. Recently, I'm thinking that I should kill myself. I cant find the meaning of my life. Well....i guess this is my last page of my dairy. Thank you all.
Today I tried again to remember kanji, but it's too much for me. Studying almost a year and I can still not read a simple manga, just kill me already, man.
Japanese students spend huge amount of time practicing kanji. You have to learn 2000 basic kanji so that you can read almost everything. 2000 may seem huge numbers, but many kanji have common components so once you decided to master, it won't to be difficult.
I encountered one dick that seems aggressive to the other and I warned him/her not to be like that Then he/she turned to put insults to me and I felt just like... why are there lots of phyco in English thread especially who seems elementary as a learner... can't be """"Kokusai jin""" as well...
Some people don’t think for themselves when they read books. They only try to understand what an author says. It’s true reading books is a good habit, but it will not be more effective if you think for yourself.
Body
Critical thinking is the ability to analyze information objectively and make a better judgement. Examining a text carefully is part of it.
You may get screwed over if you don’t think a text critically. What do you do when you receive an email that promises you millions? What is your approach to this? If you get such an email, you have to think critically. You have to doubt that it tells the truth.
A book may also include false information or a writer may have a bias. So you have to gather useful and reliable information and judge it for yourself if you are not sure that they are sound on a topic. That’s because critical thinking prevent us from believing in it without giving consideration to it
For the above reason, you should not read books passively. You should explore other points of view and evaluate them and think critically. Then you can make a more informed judgement. Critical thinking has the power to make your reading better.
Introduction I hear that 26 people have died from a new coronavirus in China and Japanese Foreign Ministry will raise the infectious disease warning for China’s Hubei Province to the second-highest level. But why doesn’t Japan impose travel restrictions with China?
Body Some experts say the virus may not be as deadly as other types of coronavirus such as SARS. So it seems that this is not as serious as MERS.
But much is still unknown about this virus. Although Chinese scientists say snakes may be the source of it, we don’t know exactly about the origin of this type of coronavirus and how easily it can be transmitted.
What we know for sure is that there is evidence of respiratory transmission of the virus from patient to patient. The second patient in the US traveled to Wuhan in late December and returned to the US on January 13. Two cases of a deadly new virus were confirmed in France. Both of them had travelled to China. It has been spreading worldwide.
Conclusion The WHO says that it’s still too early to declare this is a global crisis, but the coronavirus death toll has been rising in China and the virus has been spreading globally. So Japan should restrict travel between Japan and China.
It is a special street for pedestrians only. You can take a walk without worrying about cars. In Tokyo three famous pedestrian paradises occur almost every week on a specific day and at a specific time. You can say ‘hoko’ in Japanese if you want to sound hip.
Introduction 41 people have been killed by the Wuhan coronavirus. In Japan Health authorities have confirmed the country’s 3rd case of it after Japanese Foreign Ministry said it would raise the infectious disease warning for China’s Hubei Province to the second-highest level. The virus can spread widely in this country, so the Japanese government must make a good decision.
Body Some experts say the virus may not be as deadly as other types of coronavirus such as SARS. But, according to a Hong Kong infectious disease expert, this new virus may be more infectious than SARS. He says we have seen patients who have a pneumonia, but has no symptom of fever or cough, so it is not easy to recognize the cases of novel coronavirus infection and control the outbreak.
What we know for sure is that there is evidence of respiratory transmission of the virus from patient to patient. The second patient in the US traveled to Wuhan in late December and returned to the US on January 13. Three cases confirmed in Japan have connection to Wuhan. The situation will become worse if we have started to have cases that has no connection to Wuhan.
Much is still unknown about this virus. But scientists say they have confirmed that the pneumonia-like disease was zoonotic or transmitted from an animal. Although Chinese scientists say snakes may be the source of it, they are still investigating exactly what creature is the source of the novel coronavirus.
It is true that we need to be mindful of condemning cultural practices but there will be a great deal room for improvement about the problematic nature of “wet markets” in Wuhan. It is said that a mixture of bodily fluids from live, wild creatures ends up mixing with blood from butchered animals and provide ideal opportunities for viruses and bacteria to thrive.
Conclusion The WHO says that it’s still too early to declare this is a global crisis, but the coronavirus death toll has been rising in China and the virus has been spreading globally. So Japan must treat it seriously and make a good decision at this time to control the spread of the virus, otherwise it is possible that Tokyo or other cities would become Wuhan.
Introduction The Wuhan coronavirus has killed 56 people, almost all in Wuhan. More than 2000 people have been infected in China. Xi Jingping established a high-level committee and Hong Kong raised its epidemic alert level to the highest. But can they really control the situation?
In Japan Health authorities have confirmed the country’s 3rd case of it after Japanese Foreign Ministry said it would raise the infectious disease warning for China’s Hubei Province to the second-highest level.
The virus has been spreading around the world and can spread widely in Japan, so the Japanese government must take good measures to meet the situation.

Conclusion The WHO says that it’s still too early to declare this is a global crisis, but the coronavirus death toll has been rising in China and the virus has been spreading globally. Australia’s chief medical officer says that he would not be surprised if there are more cases in Australia.
The U.S., France and other countries are said to be putting into place plans to evacuate their citizens by air from the epidemic-stricken Chinese city of Wuhan.
There are Japanese people in Wuhan and it’s likely that there will be more cases here in Japan. So Japan must be well-prepared and take a good measures to control the spread of the virus, otherwise it is possible that Tokyo or other cities would become Wuhan.
Japanese people eat sushi with soy sauce and wasabi because wasabi has a bacteria-killing effect. However, your mouth is on fire if you take in too much wasabi. So be careful not to use too much at a time.
Introduction The Wuhan coronavirus has killed 56 people, almost all in Wuhan. More than 2000 people have been infected in China. Xi Jingping established a high-level committee and Hong Kong raised its epidemic alert level to the highest. But a senior Hong-Kong based virologist says the window for controlling its spread might already be closed. Can they really control the situation?
In Japan Health authorities have confirmed the country’s 4th case of it the virus. The virus has been spreading around the world and can spread widely in Japan, so the Japanese government must take good measures to meet the situation.
Body Some experts say the virus may not be as deadly as other types of coronavirus such as SARS. But, according to a Hong Kong infectious disease expert, this new virus may be more infectious than SARS. He says we have seen patients who have a pneumonia, but has no symptom of fever or cough so it is not easy to recognize the cases of novel coronavirus infection and control the outbreak.
According to The Guardian doctors on the ground weren’t testing for the new virus thoroughly during the early days of the outbreak and this could have helped the virus spread. Besides, it is said that the Wuhan government didn’t offer timely and effective support and missed the best time for containing the outbreak.
If the disease came only from eating some kind of infected animal, we could manage to stop the outbreak more easily. But we know that there is evidence of respiratory transmission of the virus from patient to patient. The second patient in the US traveled to Wuhan in late December and returned to the US on January 13. Four cases confirmed in Japan have connection to Wuhan. Most of the patients were tourists from Wuhan and residents who visited Wuhan. But the situation will become worse if we have started to have cases that has no connection to Wuhan.

It seems that there are about 700 Japanese people in Wuhan and it’s likely that there will be more cases here in Japan. So Japan must be well-prepared and take good measures to control the spread of the virus. Prime Minister Abe says the government will bring home all nationals who wish to leave the Chinese city of Wuhan once arrangements have been made with the Chinese government. It is one of necessary measures for the Japanese government to take, but screening for the virus is also absolutely essential to stop the spread of it in Japan. There is evidence that patients who doesn’t look unwell may carry the virus, so if the government fails to take effective measurements, it is possible that Tokyo or other cities would become Wuhan.
Introduction Demand for face masks has been soaring across the world. Mask manufacturers are working to produce them, but they don’t keep up with the demand. Masks are difficult to find now. Who needs them most in this situation? The elderly and the sick.
Reason When the elderly and the sick get infected by the Wuhan coronavirus, they can be in a critical condition. The virus can lead to pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure and even death.
Conclusion So, we should distribute masks to the elderly and those who are in bad health first.
It seems that everything was either right or wrong in the mathematical world. But it’s not true. There is uncertainty in it.
Kelsey Houston-Edwards says, “mathematicians agree to a remarkable degree on whether a statement is true or false, but they cannot agree on what exactly the statement is about. (1)”
Mathematicians don’t know what the fundamental nature of mathematical objects are. 100 mathematicians have 100 different points of view.
And furthermore, we already know that we cannot prove every mathematical statement.
As stated above, mysteries do exist in the mathematical world.
There has been increasing concern about racist vitriol as fears about the spread of the Wuhan Coronavirus continue. But we should not cause a panic.
It is said that people become more reluctant to go see a doctor when they’re symptomatic if they become the objects of irrational hostility. So excessive anxieties and fears can lead to the spread of viruses.
It’s important that to wash hands thoroughly with soap and cover your face, but you don’t have to be too cautious.
There is no sign that the outbreak is abating. When will the situation return to normal?
The genome sequence of 2019-nCoV was made public in early January and it has led to diagnostic tests for the virus. But we don’t have no vaccine for the coronavirus.
Virologists worldwide are sharing live samples and are in the process of developing a vaccine. But according to health 24, it takes three months to develop a vaccine that is approved for clinical use.
So the situation will not change for the better soon.

In the Edo period people enjoyed mountain climbing. The most popular mountain was Mt. Fuji and they used to climb the mountain with their Friends.
A: Hey, I’ve heard that you climbed Mt. Fuji, right? B: Yeees, that’s right. The view from the summit was breathtaking! A: So, you could see my house from there, couldn’t you? B: No. Of course, no. A: No? Then you lied that you climbed Mt. Fuji. B: Why? What makes you think so? A: That’s because Mt. Fuji can be seen clearly from my house.

Japan, the land of the rising sun, has four distinct seasons.: spring, summer, autumn and winter. Spring is the time for Hanami (cherry blossom viewing), followed by Tsuyu (the rainy season.) June to August is summer. It is a hot and humid season. After the end summer arrives autumn. Autumn is the most comfortable season. You can enjoy many delicious foods that come into season. December to February is winter. Many parts of Japan has snow in winter. You will sometimes see glorious snowy landscape out there.

Sometimes we fail. But, as John Dewey said, “Failure is instructive. The person who really thinks learns quite as much from his failures as from his successes,” we can learn from failure. Let’s consider the following examples.
A research shows that learning from failure is important. Hundreds of 5th grade children in New York City schools were divided into two groups. One group was praised for being smart while the other group was praised for their effort.
When they were presented with a very hard test designed for 8th graders, they reacted differently. The students praised for intelligence felt depressed to think they are failures when they made mistakes while the students praised for their effort tried hard regardless of their failures.
Learning from errors can help us improve our performance. Albert Einstein said that Science is a process of trial and error and Thomas Edison, the famed American inventor, made thousands of mistakes before he invented the first light bulb. They didn’t have negative emotions when they made mistakes. They were motivated by them and they made the most of their failures.
We can learn as much from failure as from success if we treat each error as a useful experience We don’t expect us to be perfect and we do make mistakes, so we have to manage negative emotions. It will be more likely to achieve success in the future if you have a positive attitude and try to overcome setbacks when you make mistakes.
I think students who obtained good scores in the test of NY were in a type which don't know how to make a effort to study anything. If they were smart, I think such people would like to be left to themselves in their study. They would try to find their subject to attain for themselves, and endeavor to conquer it spending every time of them, even if forgetting the time to eat.
Harry was a dog. A white dog with black spots. He liked everything except for one thing. He didn’t like getting a bath. So one day he buried the scrubbing brush in the backyard because he didn’t want to be washed in the tub.
Then Harry went out to play. He played where they were fixing the street and got very dirty. Now he looked like a black dog with white spots.
He went home but his family didn’t recognize him. The poor dog did all the ricks he could do, but it was use trying. He wondered if he had to leave the house, but suddenly he just remembered! Harry ran to the yard and started to dig and found the scrubbing brush.
He went into the house and jumped into the tub with the brush in his mouth. When the children scrubbed him, they recognized him, shouting “It’s Harry.”
After dinner, he fell asleep, dreaming of going out and getting dirty again. (A story retold)
Snow is falling a lot now. Everything, including men, dogs and cars, might be buried under the cover of snow. And, tomorrow, only after being heated by warm sunshine, they might start to move again.

A 2019 survey showed that Japan has the ability to prevent a virus epidemic, but the country is failing to take effective public health measures and the public is losing faith in its ability to cope with a pandemic.
Arguments
1 Japan couldn’t control the spread of the COVID-19 on a cruise ship 1-1 a Japanese infectious specialist criticized the handling of quarantine on a cruise ship, saying it was run by bureaucrats and he found basic protocol violations. 1-2 CDC (the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) criticized the way of handling the quarantine
2 Many people doubt that Japan is doing enough to stop the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus 2-1 Japan’s Health Minister apologized after a woman who tested negative and was allowed to leave the cruise ship was found to have been infected
