Yes, I am in Japan now. Food can be very expensive in Japan. We learned this is the first time we went to get some food. As soon as we reached Osaka(大阪), we decided to look for a Japanese restaurant near the airport. We wanted to eat noodles, and we found a nice restaurant. The menu was easy to read because it was written in Japanese and English, with pictures of the food. However, I was shocked when I saw the prices. On the first page of the menu there were dishes for 8,000 yen and 12,000 yen. I even saw a dish for 23,000 yen. In other words, these dishes cost $80, $120, and $230. Luckily, the noodles we ordered were only 800 yen. Prices for food can be high here, but they don’t have to be. We soon realized that there was a lot of excellent food in Japan at good prices. Some restaurants that sell noodles can have nice meals for between five or ten dollars. We can also have a nice cup of coffee for $5, but it’s also easy to find coffee or soft drinks at the train or subway stations for a little over $1. Hope you are having a good time back home.

Jack said in surprise, I’m only seven, so it means Grandpa has been…er…A really long time!” His parents said,” yes. That’s why we are going to have a surprise party for him.” Jack loved his Grandpa and wanted to do something special for him. He remembered the business card his grandpa had given him two years before. He knew that his grandpa would no longer have the position (职位)on that card, so he decided to get a new one for his grandpa. When the big day came, Jack was ready. But he didn’t want to put his gift together with others. He carried it around with him the whole evening. (责任编辑：admin) |
