On April 25th, I participated in a lecture given by two people who work in the diplomatic field for the U.S.A in Japan. From the lecture, I learned about the duties of diplomats, America's view of the relationship between the United States and Japan, Operation Tomodachi, and many other things. I did actually know about these things, however, I got to gain more knowledge about them. The most impressive fact for me was that the United States is working so hard to help the people who were involved in the earthquake and the nuclear explosion. From that fact, I thought that the relationship between the United States and Japan will become much better in the future. If some kind of disaster happens in the United States, I would like to try my best to help people overcome their fears. Furthermore, I would like to become friends with people from many different countries and know more about them.
