In 2009, he won the opportunity to continue his studies at Japan's Tohoku University.

2009 年，他获得了去日本东北大学学习深造的机会。

Fukashima's one of the hardest hit areas during the 2011 Great Tohoku earthquake and tsunami which caused a nuclear meltdown.

在2011年造成核反应堆熔毁的东北大地震和海啸中，福田岛是受灾最严重的地区之一。

Think Sumatra in 2004, Tohoku, Japan in 2011, and the Cascadia megathrust quake that's predicted to hit the Northwest US soon.

想想 2004 年的苏门答腊岛、2011 年的日本东北部，以及预计很快将袭击美国西北部的卡斯卡迪亚巨型地震。

The most devastating quake in recent Japanese history was the 9.1 magnitude Tohoku earthquake in 2011, which caused a tsunami and killed some 20,000 people.

日本近代史上最具破坏性的一次地震是于 2011 年发生的 9.1 级东日本地震，此次地震引发了海啸，造成约 2 万人丧生。

So I went to Fukushima, Japan on the sixth anniversary of the nuclear reactor disaster there that followed the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami of 2011.

因此，在 2011 年东北地震和海啸之后发生核反应堆灾难六周年之际，我去了日本福岛。

It is expected to take decades to release all of the water at the plant, which was devastated in 2011 by a tsunami generated by the powerful Tohoku earthquake.

该核电站在2011年东北地震引发的海啸中受到严重破坏，预计需要数十年才能将核电站的所有水释放完毕。

Energy to drive a steam locomotive can be stored in other materials besides water for example, a team at Tohoku University in Japan has studied materials that can store large amounts of heat when heated.

驱动蒸汽机车的能量可以存储在除水之外的其他材料中，例如，日本东北大学的一个团队已经研究了可以在加热时储存大量热量的材料。
