Officials in northern Japan are trying to reach out to foreign visitors by using comical（滑稽的）signs to inform

them about local customs and food．It's hoped that the signs will make life easier for visitors．The signs are in use in the city of Morioka，where officials hope they will make visitors who don't speak

Japanese feel more welcome，The Japan Times reports．

Twenty一six signs are available for businesses to download online：one shows a cheerful little pig inside a

bowl to inform diners that the dish contains pork．Another tells people to dry off before entering the changing room

at hot springs，and shows a dripping-wet man in a puddle（水坑）so large that a rubber duck has appeared in

it．Short English phrases beneath each sign explain the meaning.·

Takefumi Shimomukai，who heads the Morioka Regional Development Bureau，says they want to do something

Kyoto，and communication troubles have made some locals reluctant（不情愿的）to reach out to visitors．“Until

recently some owners believed their profits from serving only locals were enough，and due to the language barrier，they may have left foreign visitors with a feeling that they were not welcome，”he says．

More hi一tech approaches to dealing with communication problems have been rolled out elsewhere in Japan，as the number of foreign visitors grows．Last year，a new app was trialed that

translates rail announcements into a

visitor's own language，and some regions offer 24-hour multilingual（多语言的）hotlines for advice on everything

from finding a doctor to sending luggage home．

Half of Primary schools will adopt the traditional Chinese method of maths teaching in Government drive to

stop British youngsters from falling behind their Asian counterparts．

Youngsters in the UK are way behind those in China，Singapore and Japan in numeracy（计算能力）．In the

latest PISA（Programme for International Student Assessment）tests 15-year-olds，Shanghai came top in maths

while the UK came 26th．

The school will give Up“child-centred”styles and instead return to repetition，drills and“chalk and talk，whole-class learning．Primary school children will be taught“Shanghai maths”as British schools copy Chinese

teaching methods to improve standards. So far 140 teachers have been trained in the approach．Currently，classes are often divided into groups based on ability．Critics blame the British teaching styles that
