Thank you for your feedback and comments. I didn’t know about the info that Tokyo is the leafiest city in the world! Thank you for sharing this interest fact, too.
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as aleways. Tokyo is a city with a lot of skyscrapers, so I didn't know there was much greenery. As I go to Tokyo for work, I get the impression that there are a lot of buildings because I visit to the office. Looking at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government website, I found that they are developing the Tokyo Green Biz Project. They say they aim to create an environment where people can coexist with greenery, even in the metropolitan city. Next time I go to Tokyo, I'll pay attention to the greening of Tokyo. Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. I meant "outlook" in appearance. I also try to look younger. There are now drugs available that stop balding, so I am taking them. Thanks to the medicine, my hair is still full and healthy even with mildly mixed gray hair. In addition, regular exercise gives me energetic and powerful atmosphere. So doing exercise is essential to make me active. As for cosmetics, I also apply skin care lotion to my face to slow down the aging of my skin. I don't think that I take plastic surgery, but I want to delay aging to maintain youthfulness. Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. Yes, smartphones are very convenient because they make users access the intenet and download a variety of information at a glance. Once users understand the usefulness, it is difficult for them to have daily life without the gadgets. I also enjoy using my Android in daily life. Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me.

My husband doesn't use sunscreen. He says it's too much trouble.
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. I understand that "ebook" is preferred. The ability to read is important, but teaching children how important it is is difficult. Smartphones are so convenient that children can easily find answers. I also repeatedly tried to encourage my children to read, but they don't like it. Currently, there are no critical thinking classes in school education in Japan. If we increase the number of lessons in which children engage in critical thinking while reading books, children may become more likely to read books. Thank you for corrections that are useful to me.

Rakuten is a Japanese company which sells various goods online.
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. "Furusato Nouzei"( donation to local communities in English) is a system where one can make donations to municipalities of your choice. And on the next year, the government will reduce the donation amount from their tax. So, technically speaking, you are paying your taxes in the form of a donation in advance. As long as the amount reaches the limit of individual deduction, every Japanese worker can do "Furusato Nouzei" in Japan. Take for example, let's assume that you make 4,000,000 yen per annum, which is the average annual salary in Japan. Ignoring any other exemptions, the amount of tax that a person live would have to pay is around 250,000 yen for that year. On this case, they can do "Furusato Nouzei" with about 100,000 yen at maximum. Why the Japanese government implement this generous deduction despite reduction of the tax revenue ? It is because that the government has failed in activating local economy in rural areas due to aging society with low birth rate. Even though the government has invested a lot of money in the countryside before, the business did not succeed. In that case, the government decided that while the government lowers tax, the donors would be able to revitalize the countryside. The donors reduce taxes and receive thank-you gifts from the local government they donated to as a return. The government hoped that Rural municipalities should develop more and more local products to receive more donations, revitalizing their own community in countryside. As aresult, this system can bring win-win relationship between taxpayers and obsoleting countryside communities by gulvanizing local economy. Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me.

I don't know very well, but maybe the bigger the donation the better the gifts.
