“Foot-and –mouth disease halts livestock trades”
NHK, May 19, 2010

Summary
In Southern Japan, foot-and-mouth disease has broken out.
Fifty-one markets in Okinawa and all but one of the prefectures in the Kyusyu region have been closed, and there are no possibilities of these markets reopening on the spot.
Vocabularies
1. Outbreak(発生): it suddenly starts to happen
ex) at outbreak of the war
2. Prospect(可能性、見通し): the possibility that something will happen
ex) I see no prospect of things improving here.
3. Calve(牛などが子を産む): to give birth to a CALF
4. Barn(家畜小屋): a large farm building for keeping animals in
5. Cattle(畜牛): cows kept on a farm for their meat or milk
Question
1. Have you ever heard this news?
2. What do you think about killing cattle because of foot-and-mouse disease?
3. Do you think there were ways of avoiding this disease beforehand?
