 When you’re in Japan, you might notice something that’s different from other places. Why is it so clean? You won’t find garbage bins anywhere in public, yet there’s no trash on the streets. Students are cleaning their own classrooms, floors, and hallways. Inside trains, everything shines. We’re going to talk casually about why people recognize Japan as such a clean country, and what makes it so unique.
 日本に来ると、他の国と違うことに気づくかもしれません。なんでこんなにきれいなんだろう?公共の場所にゴミ箱がないのに、道にゴミが落ちない!?生徒たちは教室の床、廊下を自分達で掃除しています。電車の中は、すべてがピカピカです。なぜ日本がこんなにきれいな国だと認識されているのか、何がそんなにユニークなのか二人でお喋りしていきます!
