a. How Japanese go to work
b. Mixture of old traditions and new deeds
c. Traditional lifestyle
d. What modern lifestyle has brought
(…..) Japanese people have had a long traditional
history. Most Japanese people used to live in agricultural villages or small fishing settlements along the coast. They used to wear only traditional clothes and lead a simple life. Almost all Japanese people were used to having tea ceremony every day. They were always very respectful and hardworking. For a long time, they were away from the western lifestyle, so they weren’t used to consuming much, buying more than necessary and eating unhealthily. In time, things started to change and western lifestyle has affected their lifestyles a bit, though not totally.
(…..) Now, most of the population lives in metropolitan areas. Everyday life for many
Japanese people involves work in an office, store, factory, or other segments of the metropolitan economy. Daily commutes by bus, train, or subway are generally long, particularly in Tokyo. In addition, the commute is extraordinarily crowded.
(…..) Due to the country’s high
population and costly land, most houses and apartments are small in comparison to those in other developed countries.
However, most Japanese have an access to comforts such as the latest fashions in clothing, new appliances and electronics, and new models of automobiles. Sundays are the busiest shopping days in Japan.
During the afternoon hours, department stores and shopping malls are full of crowds.
Japanese people also enjoy traveling and often go abroad or to popular domestic resorts during holidays.
(…..) Japanese lifestyle brings traditions from the past and new activities, borrowed from
other cultures, together. The Japanese diet, for example, includes rice, seafood, and other items that have been in the society for centuries, but also contains international cuisine such as Italian dishes and American-style fast-food hamburgers. Similarly, Japanese sports fans are interested in both sumo, Japan’s traditional style of wrestling, and baseball, imported from the United States. Japanese people have never given up their traditions entirely, but they have developed their lifestyles keeping up with the modern world.
