24、tyles” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”Foreign tourists are often confused(困惑) in Japan because most streets there dont have names; In Japan, people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names.

39、es of murders are not guns but the trend of despising (蔑视) life in the US.
