It was the tsunami, caused by the largest earthquake ever to strike Japan, that killed more than 16,000 people, destroyed or damaged roughly 125,000 buildings, and left the country facing what its prime minister described as its biggest crisis since World War II. Yet it is Fukushima that is habitually accorded the “disaster” label.
夺走16 000多人生命、摧毁和毁坏约125 000栋建筑、令日本首相将其称为日本自二战以来最严重危机的，是由有史以来袭击日本的最强烈的地震所引起的海啸。但被人们贴上“灾难”标签的确实福岛核电站。
