I think that bullying is a very difficult problem, and it is the problem that we should repair promptly. The bullying doesn't remain now only in a school; beyond a place and the age including the workplace, and the neighborhood of the house became serious.

In my opinion, social issue problem in Japan is bullying in school. The reason is bullying hurt people. Also, the people who bullied might incur unforgettable scar life in mind, and there is a danger that life is wasted. One solution is that teachers change into good atmosphere. For example, a teacher give all classmate each of role. Then, it can protect from school caste. Teachers should make students’ school environmental. Second solution is college students go to school as volunteer and serve on the improvement of bullying. Outsider may realize bullying earlier because outsider can judge calmly. In addition, students likly to consult better of college studebts than adults and teachers about bullying.

In my opinion, smoking is an important social issue in Japanese society. The top reason of death in Japan is from lung cancer and the major cause of the cancer is smoking. Smoking causes lung cancer for not only smokers but also people around them.

In my opinion, cell phone addiction is an important social issue facing Japanese society. Since the mobile phone by the development of science has become familiar, there is a problem with our use. Cell phone of the problems I think, is that the time spent on the cell phone and it can’t be other things. One solution, we should decide the time to use a mobile phone. By deciding such time to time and study to use portable, it is possible to consider the use of the cell phone. As second solutions, it is set to be used fee.

In my opinion ,bullying is one of the greatest problems at school in Japan. Because bully tend not to be discernible. Then I think about a method used to solve a matter at its foundation. One solution, teachers see carefully to all students. Because students can't seek help ,who are being bullied. Then teachers must perceive to bullying. Another solution is students should understand their classmate more. Because by understanding the their classmate , they will be able to become closer.

In my opinion, I think cell phone addiction is an important issue in japan.The cell-phone is very convenient. However, the people who became addicted to a cell-phone have increased. Particularly, It increases in a youth generation. As a result, Person come to need more sleep. In addition, in the case of a student, it disturbs the study. The parents must limit the consumption of the cell-phone of the child to solve this problem. In addition, the schools must establish the school regulations about the cell-phone.

In my opinion, smoking is an important social problem. First of all, smoking is bad for our health. Nicotine included in the cigarette pollutes the human lungs. Furthermore, because there is dependence on nicotine, it is not easily stopped. Not only the smoker but also the nonsmoker has damage with the sidestream smoke. In the case of a smoker parents , it may adversely affect the baby. So smoker should concider that far from there not being a good thing at all, the smoking has a bad influence on the person's body. I think smoking should be stopped as much as possible.

In my opinion, karoshi is an important social issue facing Japanese society. Some people die from over work in Japan. One of the reason is depression. And they have heart disease. One solution is to go to the hospital. One another is to speak to family about the problem. Or consult with their boss. I think to speak someone, their feelings will light .

In my opinion, smoking is an important social issue. I think so because smoking is the source of unhappiness for people who smokes and doesn't smoke. For example, cigarettes are expensive because of cigarette tax, also secondhand smoke have toxic substance more than mainstream smoke. One solution is to raise the price of cigarettes more. Then number of smokers get fewer. Another solution is to develop new cigarettes what have little toxic substance. I think Japanese excellent scientists can do that. It is necessary for that reform of sence.
