BR: 1-09 “DISASTER!”

“The Kobe Earthquake” (P.38)

I read this book a week ago. The title of this book is "Disaster!". What do you think about disasters? Do you feel scary, unbearable, or unbelievable? You know about the Kobe earthquake, the great East Japan earthquake, and the others, don't you? Japan has always had earthquakes. In 1923, there was a very big earthquake in Tokyo prefecture on 1st September, which killed 143,000 people. However, in 2011, there was a very big earthquake, too. It is called "East Japan great earthquake disaster". No one thought that the huge earthquake would occur. I think that earthquakes, floods, and landslide disaster is very scary for me.  Probably, I cannot endure it.
