　　日本可能将在百年内毁灭
　　Daily Mail: according to a new study, Japan could be wiped off the face of the earth by a massive volcanic1 eruption2 some time in the next century killing3 almost all of its 127million inhabitants.
　　Experts analyzing4 the eruption patterns of volcanoes on the island nation say it is 'not an overstatement' to predict that a natural disaster could leave the country 'extinct'.
　　Scientists at Kobe University looked at a massive volcanic crater5 on Kyushu Island, which has erupted seven times in the last 120,000 years.
　　They predicted that another eruption on the southern island would bury 7million underneath6 lava7 flows, while westerly winds would carry a huge pall8 of ash and dust to Honshu.
