I was surprised by his shabby clothes.

I came, I saw, and I won.

Himiko is my best friend.

He was gazing at the distant mountains.

He was able to find a solution from a difficult situation.

He always tries to make judgments based on the long run.

He gave me the cold shoulder.

He was out of breath after running a long distance.

After he solved the problem, he said, 'It's like seeing the true form of a ghost or a withered silver grass,' meaning things are not as scary as they seem.

He explained the importance of studying while young, saying 'If you do not study when you are young, it will be difficult to learn when you are old.'
