Re-porters from NHK, the country's largest TV station, stayed calm in front of cameras(摄像机) during the earthquake, even though some were facing real danger.
The earthquake was a powerful one to hit Japan. But Japan's reaction(反应) to the accident has shown that it is the most earthquake-prepared country in the world. The calm the Japanese showed during and after the quake has impressed the world. This is because Japan has "an earthquake culture". Japanese people are taught how to prepare for and react to earthquakes from a young age.

八、例文
Last weekend, I got up early and cooked noodles for my parents. First, I boiled some water. Then I put some noodles into the pot.About five minutes later, I placed them in the bowls and added some salt and oil. When my parents got up, they were surprised and praised me with big smiles.
It was the first time that I had cooked for them. A little bit tired but happy, I felt proud of myself because I could take care of my parents. From this unforgettable experience, I've got a deeper understanding of them.
I think it's our duty to share some housework. Besides, doing some hard housework is a kind of physical exercise. As teenagers,we should take action to help around the house!
