False True and True.
1:False 2:True 3:True
these questions can easily be researched. Just sayin
\(#1\) \(\textbf{The statement:}\) The Japanese Prince and Princess live at Kyoto Gosho in Kyoto. \(\textbf{Is false.}\) This is a tricky statement. There is a place called Kōkyo where the Imperial family now resides. There is also a place called Kyōto-gosho which is the past place the Imperial family lived in. They currently live in Kōkyo in Tokyo where the old Edo castle used to be. \(#2\) \(\textbf{The statement:}\) In Japan, women are supposed to cross their legs when they sit down on the floor. \(\textbf{Is false.}\) In Japan, the formal way of sitting is kneeling called seiza (せいざ/正座). Most people including Japanese may feel uncomfortable after a few minutes and their legs may get numb. If you are on good terms with the host they may invite you then to sit casual style. In casual occasions, men sit cross-legged, while women sit on their knees laying both legs on one side. (Sitting cross-legged is generally considered uncouth for women, and female informal sitting has both legs off to one side, with one side of the hips on the floor.) \(#3\) \(\textbf{The statement:}\) "The Prime Minister of Japan lives in the Imperial Palace." \(\textbf{Is false.}\) Reason: The imperial family resides in the Imperial Palace in Tokyo. The current Imperial Palace is located in the former site of Edo Castle, a large park area surrounded by moats and massive stone walls in the center of Tokyo. The palace buildings and inner gardens are not open to the public. Only on January 2 (New Year's Greeting) and December 23 (Emperor's Birthday), visitors are able to enter the inner palace grounds and see the members of the Imperial Family, who make several public appearances on a balcony.
