Japan's earthquake has caused the stoppage of production in some electronic factories which has also rippled the electronic retail market in China. Many Japanese products have had large price hikes.
Some hi-end electronic products are among the most affected. SLR cameras from Sony, Canon and Nikon have gone up by 200 yuan to almost 1000 yuan. The earthquake has paralyzed logistics and caused shortages in the market.
Salesperson said "Sendai and Fukushima are two major areas for the electronic industry. The earthquake has pushed up the prices of major producers, it's a hike of 5 to 8 percent for high-end products. Currently there are no enough products on the market and it is not known when more products will arrive."
Besides high-end products, many other Japan exports products, such as cameras, memory cards and earphones, are also seeing price hikes.
One salesperson said "This memory card is a popular Sony product. Now it costs 139 yuan, an increase of 20 yuan."
Although many electronic products are made in China, their core parts are provided by Japan, and their prices rose after the earthquake. Currently some Japan-made TV sets and laptops seem not to be affected. But with the price of their parts rising, it is quite possible that Japanese laptops will cost more in days to come.

一、背景介绍英语口语能力的提高是一个长期而艰苦的过程，不仅需要学习，更需要练习。和听力与阅读不同，口语和写作都需要输出。但是如果只是不断地做输出练习，对于口语的提升也是有限的。因为，没有了输入的支撑，那么，反复的输出最终导致的结果就是很熟练的给出一些不地道甚至错误的表达，也就是将错误强化了。因此，口语水平从根本上的提升还需要大量的阅读和听力作为...
