原版英语对话1000个:037 England and Japan

Todd: Clare, you\'re from England.

Clare: That\'s right.

Todd: How would you compare England and Japan?

Clare: Well, I think, let\'s take price wise, they\'re actually quite similar. Well, not, maybe not England as a whole but, say Japan and London is very similar, I found in supermarkets, in housing, and things like that. In other respects, the people are certainly different. I mean, British people are renowned to be very polite as Japanese people are too, and Japanese people are very helpful as well, probably more so than British people I would say. Mm, what else?

Todd: What about the weather?

Clare: The weather? Well, it\'s been raining a lot in Japan recently so we could say that it\'s quite similar, although actually, when I was e-mailing my parents, they\'ve been going on about how there hasn\'t been much rain for the past couple of months and how they think there is going to be a drought. That typical British stereotype of the weather is not true at the minute and it\'s probably wetter in Japan, but yeah, I think that climate wise it\'s quite similar in terms of temperature. It\'s definitely much more humid here than at home.

Todd: OK. Thanks a lot.
