JAPANESE FOR BUSY PEOPLE 9P ZZ Have you heard the term sakura zensen? T he flower typifying spring in Japan is, undoubt-edly, sakura, t he cherry blossom. As spring approaches, people predict the day the cherry( trees) will blossom and agree with friends on a day to go blossom viewing. Japan is an island country extenàing in a long (line) from south to north. Kyushu, Shikoku,Honshu, Hokkaido-theres quite a difference in temperatures, so the day the cherries blos-som àiffers somewhat, too. In the southern part of Kyushu the cherries bloom around the endof March, but in Hokkaido they bloom around the beginning of May. Thus, the cherry blossomfront, a line starting in the south of the Japanese archipelago and (moving) north, shows thestate of the cherry trees blossoming. This takes as long as forty days. In adàition to the cherry blossom front there are other flower fronts, such as the apricotblossom front and the azalea front. Apricots start in Kyushu a whole lot earlier than the c herryt rees, but they reach Hokkaido at almost the s ame time (as t he cherries). Therefore, if (you)travel to Hokkaido in early or mid May, (you) can s ee (various) spring flowers at the sametime. On the other hand, when it gets to be auturnn t he autumn leaves front makes its wayfrom north to south, dyeing the trees in the mountains crirnson o r yellow. With flower viewing in the spring, maple (leaf) excursions in the autumn and so on, peopleenjoy each season (in t urn). 9 Vocabulary c herry blossom front front word typify, r epresent representation undoubtedly people approach predict prediction, e stimate ( cherry) blossom viewing well, incidentally extend, stretch, postpone island country Shikoku (place name) Honshu (place name) quite (air) t emperature difference differ, be different southern part end beginning, first thus, in this way way, manner about archipelago be (in the process of ) blooming state, circumstance, appearance line show, express in addition to apricot, Japanese plum azalea such as and so forth a whole lot, al1 the tirnelway almost therefore (same as f :d b ) f irst third of the month IlovpX, LLi second third of the month QLvph Gai . .. from . . . to -714 - 1 ; dl? 7 auturnn (lit. red) leaves trees red yellow dye be advancing maple leaf excursion maple excursion, hunting season enjoy 226 VOCABULARYdP?
