M: Nana is the most popular comic series because Japanese people can sympathize with this love story. Why Japanese people love comics is probably because riley do not show much of what they think or feel. So, they project their thoughts and feelings in comics. W: Which part of Japan is the most famous？ And why？ M: The most famous part in Japan is Tokyo, the center of modern culture in Japan and all Japanese trends are born there. W: What is the most important festival in Japan and why does it become so significant for the Japanese？ M: In Japan, the most important festival is the New Year's Holidays. Japanese people visit a shrine on New Year's day to pray for health and good future. Also, family gets together and many children receive money. Also, people clean the house before the New Year and eat toshikoshi soba for long life. And on New Year's day people eat osechi ryori, which is very special and delicious. I like New Year very much. W: If I want to skiing, where should I go？ M: I think Nagano(长野) is the best place to ski in Japan. The reason is because the Winter Olympics were held in Nagano in 1998. The snow there is very soft and beautiful. W: What kind of food do you like besides Japanese food？ Like American food, Chinese food？ M: Recently, young Japanese people eat with their friends at fast food restaurants like McDonalds or Yoshinoya. There are not many university students eating meals at home. I think that I am the same as those students. Also, Japanese like Italian, Chinese, and Korean food. But I like Japanese food the best because foreign food is too strong for me. W: What do you think about Junlehiro Koizumi？ Is he handsome or look old？ M: I think Prime Minister Koizumi is a progressive person rather than a traditional one. He is active and has made good diplomacy, but his idea of tax increase is not good. I think capitalism is going to do big damage to poor people. Koizmni's capitalism is just like that of President George Bush. Is Koizumi handsome？ Well, I think he looks not all that bad.

Would you mind if I take off my shoes？ M: No, of course not. I don’t mind. Go ahead. W: Thanks. M: Oh, don’t forget to put your seat belt on! You can get fined nowadays, you know, for not wearing your seat belt. W: Yes, sorry, I forgot. Could I open this window？ M: Well, I’d rather you don’t if you don’t mind.

Six pairs will compete in the Aug. 20 "Black OPS: Hack Attack Challenge 2004," organized by the government-funded National Infocomm Competency Center, said its marketing manager Yvonne Choo. They will "penetrate, exploit, gain access and obtain privileged information from the other teams' servers, for the purpose of corporate espionage," the center said on its Web site. Teams will also have to defend their organization's networks against hacking from other teams in the daylong event, it added. Choo said he hoped the contest would help shed light on ways to prevent actual computer attacks. The prize for the best hacker will be a DVD burner and free computer classes. Asia has been the root of some of the worst attacks by hackers in recent years. In May 2000, the so-called Love Bug virus, released in the Philippines, overwhelmed e mail systems worldwide and caused tens of millions of dollars in damage. Close to 80 percent of Singapore's 4 million citizens own personal computers and the island is largely considered to be the most technologically advanced in Southeast Asia. Hackers can be jailed for up to three years or fined up to S$10,000 (US$5,810) under the city-state's Computer Misuse Act. According to the report, the contest will last ______ days.
