Too many tourists on Mt Fuji

14-09-2023 07:00

Japan is worried about Mount Fuji. Too many tourists are visiting. It is causing problems. The
area is very dirty.

Authorities are thinking about how to solve the problems. Tourists may use a tram. This
will limit how many people can go to the mountain. There are also problems with dirty
bathrooms and trash on the paths.

Mount Fuji is a special mountain in Japan. Many people love it. Mount Fuji becomes famous
ten years ago. It is called a UNESCO World Heritage site. But too many people are coming.
Authorities worry that it will not be so interesting for people anymore.

Difficult words: limit (to set a number or level), trash (things which people throw
away), path (a way for walking).

Protests at Venice Film Festival

11-09-2023 07:00

People protest at the Venice Film Festival. The protests happen because people are not happy
with Woody Allen’s film.

The film’s title is ‘Coup De Chance’. It is in French language. It is Woody Allen’s 50th film.
People shout at Allen when he is on the red carpet. Security fights with them. Some people
believe that Allen sexually attacks his adopted daughter in the 1990s. Things get worse when
the #MeToo movement starts.
Allen says that he understands #MeToo. But some things are a little silly.

Difficult words: shout (to speak very loudly), adopted (not your own but legally
yes), silly (stupid).
