It read,“Safe. Love Ted. “My most vivid memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee,his arm in a bandage.He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war.

Long queues formed at airports.As Japanese authorities struggled to avoid disaster at an earthquake-battered nuclear plant 240 km to the north, parts of Tokyo resembled a ghost town. Many people stocked up on food and stayed indoors or simply left, transforming one of the world's biggest and most populated cities into a shell of its usual self.“Look, it's like Sunday —no cars in town，” said Kazushi Arisawa, a 62­year­old taxi driver, as he waited for more than an hour outside an office tower where he usually finds customers within minutes. “I can't make money today. ”Radiation in Tokyo has been negligible,_ briefly touching three times the normal rate on Tuesday, smaller than a dental X-ray. On Wednesday, winds over the Fukushima (福岛) nuclear-power plant blew out to sea, keeping levels close to normal. But that does little to relieve public anxiety about a 40-year-old nuclear plant with three reactors in partial meltdown (熔毁)and a fourth with spent atomic fuel exposed to the atmosphere after last Friday's earthquake and tsunami.“Radiation moves faster than we do，” said Steven Swanson, a 43­year­old American who moved to Tokyo in December with his Japanese wife to help with her family business.He is staying indoor but is tempted to leave.“It's scary.It's a triple threat with the earthquake, tsunami and the nuclear radiation leaks.It makes you wonder what's next. ”【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了日本的核辐射泄露对人们造成的影响。
