This article is about what is happening in Japan right now. On March 11, 2011, an earthquake of 9.0 magnitude and a tsunami hit the country of Japan; this earthquake has been the strongest in Japan so far. As a consequence of the earthquake, many people died and disappeared. From March 21 to March 29 there has been a nuclear crisis in Fukuchima, Japan. This crisis has developed many problems in the country because some reactors were affected by the tsunami and the water is being polluted by the reactors. The main problem is that this polluted water is going to some parts of Japan. The most dangerous reactor is reactor #3 because since March 21 the reactor has a hole, and because of the hole the reactor, which should be cold, is very hot and factory workers cannot find a way of cooling it down. This nuclear crisis is the biggest nuclear crisis that any country has had for decades.
This article interested me because this is a crisis and is known around the world. People in Japan need help and we need to help them because we never know if some time we will need help. This article also interested me because I saw many news before writing this article and every where organizations are asking for money for support and to pray for Japan, so I found connections with it. For example, last week a teacher at our school invited students to get together in her room and offer prayers for Japan, and in JMUN we also collected money to donate to help Japan overcome this crisis.
This article has connections with my life because I belong to a program that helps people in sickness and in crisis and we are collecting money to send to Japan. I like to help people and I like that people know about crises and how they can help other people.
Nice connections Thomas. Good effort.
