In Japan,It is said that You must change car battery every two year.
From my experience, it is not true.
Car battery will last at least more than two years.
As long as you use your car regularly,
It will last more than four years!
Since my car is manual transmission, I can use push start as last resort.
But my car’s battery is not common in Japan,
It’s time to replace it.
Yesterday I was going to buy fairly expensive item on the internet,
When I entered credit card number, next screen was error page which display “you can’t use this card!”.
I checked limit amount, But It was enough to buy it.
I tried to buy it by another credit card, but it also failed.
Today , I got a phone call from the credit card company,
The operator told me that yesterday’s purchase was not considered to be normal. so their system locked my credit card.
The company called me to confirm that this purchase was done by me.
also they unlocked my credit card status.
I usually use Eki-net which offer up-to 35% discount ticket.
This time I was going to take one ticket on 12/31 From saitama to Niigata,
but this period is called “kisei-rasshu” which means many people return to their home.
Today,I got an e-mail which said that I could not get ticket.
So, I searched another train which departs late afternoon.
Finally, I could get a ticket for 15% discount price!
I think this unit is the easiest unit of all.
Just read sentences in text book.
Pronunciation and intonation is important factor for this unit.
You have 45 seconds to prepare,
It’s better to look at whole sentences, then remember long sentences!
Because the longer a sentence become , the more difficult for Japanese to read fluently!
