我在中国
去年，我在中国的一所学校工作，才过了一个月，就很想家了。因为想家，我很难过，总是哭。学生们常常问我：“老师，你怎么了？生病了吗”。我告诉他们“我想爸爸妈妈，也想男朋友了。”
几个月后，我认识了一个中国女孩儿。我们一起在学校门口租房子。她的朋友都对我很热情。我们常常一起逛街、看电影、散步、去很多地方旅游。和她们在一起，我能练习中文，学习做中国菜。
有一天，爸爸妈妈给我打电话。他们问我“你现在怎么样？还是很想家吗？还会每天哭吗？”“不，我喜欢这个城市；我喜欢我的朋友；我喜欢我的中国生活”。

My life in China

Hello and welcome to today’s episode. I hope you are all well and having a wonderful day. Today’s topic is longevity, this is something I only really took seriously and investigated since the pandemic.
Since the pandemic, most of us, myself included have realised how important our health is and have started taking a proactive approach to our health. The average lifespan has been extended dramatically since the environmental improvements in the 1990s due to advances in medicine that have nearly eliminated certain deadly infectious diseases. The good news is that although longevity is mostly influenced by genetics, studies show that genetics count for 30% of longevity the rest is determined by your lifestyle, behaviours, attitudes, environment, and luck.

2024年3月16日に東京から福井県敦賀（つるが）まで、新幹線で行けるようになりました。2015年3月に石川県金沢市まで伸びてからというもの、金沢で外国人観光客を見ない日はありません。同様に、福井も発展していくのでしょうか。福井市や敦賀市の話と同じくらい、私は新幹線の未来を心配しています。はたして「速い」は絶対なのか？

すずまりの日本語「きき耳ずきん」S2

第21話　福井県と新幹線

When you think about rainforests, you might think of somewhere with a tropical climate — somewhere like the Amazon or the Congo.

But in fact, a very large rainforest can be found in a country famous for its dreary weather: the UK.

The Eden Project, an attraction in southwest England, calls itself the world's largest indoor rainforest.

Sometimes referred to as the "Eighth Wonder of the World," the Eden Project was created in 2001 from an old clay pit. It's famous for its two enormous biomes, which are designed to look and feel like rainforests and tropical regions from all over the world.

The Rainforest Biome is about 16,000 square meters in size, and is full of plants found in tropical climates, like sugarcane, pineapples and bananas.

There are rare and unusual plants too, like the titan arum — a flower famous for its terrible smell that only blooms around once a year.

The Mediterranean Biome is a little smaller at 6,540 square meters, but has plants from the Mediterranean and regions with similar climates, such as California, South Africa and Australia.

The Eden Project is not just a place for people to look at plants, though — there is an environmental message behind the attraction, and it aims to teach visitors about the importance of looking after the environment.

As well as activities and workshops that teach visitors about the importance of living sustainably, the Eden Project even offers courses for a university degree!

And there's plenty of other things to see and do, too.

Throughout both biomes, visitors can find art and installations which focus on important topics like climate change.

And every year, the Eden Project hosts the Eden Sessions, a series of outdoor music concerts. Famous artists such as Amy Winehouse, Elton John and Oasis have performed at the Eden Sessions in the past.
