BR 2-12: ---☆★Life In The AMAZON JUNGLE★☆---

Posted: January 11th, 2010, 1:24pm PST

I would like to learn about Amazon jungle so I selected this book. Moreover I am interested in a lot of animals very much. I am going to talk about what I studied from this book from now on.

It is home to more different species of plants and animals than any other place on Earth over four thousand kinds of trees, three million kinds of insects, five hundred species of mammals, and at least one-third of the world's birds.
Every year scientists discover hundreds of new plants and animals in the Amazon Jungle. No wonder scientists call the Amazon Jungle an amazing treasure trove. I have not known the thing yet.
The Amazon jungle is a tropical rainforest. The temperature stays between twenty and thirty all year round. It rains a lot in tropical rainforests, too. Tropical rainforests all have a huge number of different plants and animals living close together.
The Amazon Jungle changes from the treetops down to the ground. This is because there are four main layers in a tropical rainforest. The trees are so thick at the top of the rainforests that they form a kind of roof, or canopy.

I learned a lot of things by reading this book. There were many things which I had not known things, however I thought that I was glad to learn it now. I want to recommend this book wanting know the jungle in Amazon by all means. (273 words)

Posted: December 16th, 2009, 7:36pm PST

Human beings, that is to say, we use a lot of languages every day. We cannot help using a lot of languages and speaking some countries languages in our daily lives. So we always utter a lot of words, we communicate each other. In other words, Language is the only means of communication. Languages connect our own hearts and minds, that is to say, to use and speak some countries languages is one of means for conveying our feeling each other. Therefore I feel very happy to be able to use language, speak some countries languages and utter a lot of words every day. First of all, I’m going to mention thinking about English and various other languages in the future. Next I will talk about my own language learning until now from now on. Third, I’m going to mention what I think about languages. Finally, I will collect this essay.

First of all, I’m going to mention thinking about English and various other languages in the future. I would like to learn different languages more and more. Because I want to communicate with a lot of people in the future. In addition, if I could speak foreign languages, for instance, English, German, French, Korean and so on, fluently, I would like to live in foreign countries. I would like to teach about our own country’s cultures each other, in other words, I hope that I get on with a lot of foreigners, deepen exchanges between foreigners and me. Moreover I know lots of things which I don’t know now. So first of all, I think that I ought to learn languages spoken in other countries. For instance, French, Chinese, German and Spanish. I was determined to study all of these languages little by little.

Second, I’m going to talk about my own language learning until now from now on. I have studied some languages since I was an elementary school student. My mother has been an instructor of her own cram school for about fifteen years, so I learned English from early childhood from my mother. To begin with, whether I like it or not, I learned English almost every day. However I turned to like studying English by little and little. In order that I become accustomed to English words as fast as possible, my mother used English every day in my house. For example, when my mother cautioned me that she wanted me to take in a bath right away, my mother told me to “take a bath at once”. I think the thing now, I’m oblige to my mother for using English almost every day. If I had some my children in the future, I might talk to them in English like my mother now and then.

When I was a junior high school student, to study English and using English were very interesting for me more and more. When I became second years student, I was selected as a representative of the speech contest in English. When I was chose the delegate, I was very surprised, in addition, I became very happy feeling. When I told this thing to my mother who taught me a lot of English words were also pleased the thing. Thanks to the event, I was able to try to study English.

Therefore I thought that I would like to take business which is related to English in the future, so I majored in Britain and America department in KGU. Moreover I studied not only English but also German when I was a freshman. I felt that to study German and English is by no means easy, however I became to like studying them very much.

At present, I learned chiefly English and try to study one. In addition, now I’m keeping in mind German and Korean industriously. In order to be able to use German and Korean as quick as possible, I try to listen these languages on TV and radio. Moreover I work hand to memorize the grammars, words, and so on. Recently, a lot of foreign language’s lecture is broadcasting on TV. For example, Russian, Spanish, German, French, and so on. When I study foreign languages, I make the most of the lectures because the lectures are intelligible explanation very much and to learn the lectures from TV is interesting for me. In addition, the TV starts about eleven o'clock at two channel. If you have a free time someday, why don't you watch the TV? From now onward, I would like to contrive how to study some language more and more.

BR 2-011:---★☆The African Crasslands☆★---

Posted: December 14th, 2009, 9:26am PST

I am fond of a lot of animals very much. Therefore I selected this African animal’s book. I am going to introduce you the things what I learned from this book.
The African grasslands are cloth to the equator, where it’s hot all year. A lot of kinds of plants and animals live in the African grasslands. Food links all living things in this habitat, and together all these links make up a food chain.
Various animals need food for their energy, however the animals are not able to make their own food. Animals get their food from plants or from other animals that eat plants. So animals which live in Africa are called consumers.
Many plant-eating animals have body parts that help them get food. The giraffe uses its long neck to reach the high leaves of the acacia trees. Other animals cannot reach this high.
Elephants are huge animals and need lots of food. They have long trunks that are good for reaching and grabbing food. They also have teeth and strong jaws that are good for crushing plants. They eat grass, flowers, leaves, and bark.
Predators are the third link in the food chain. They are called secondary consumers because they get their food from eating other animals.
Lions prey on animals that are not as fast as them, like wildebeest, zebras and antelopes. They have pointed teeth to grip and tear their prey.
Because I read this book, I could learn a lot of things which I have not ever known things. So I recommend everyone who know about various animals. (273 words)

BR 2-10:---★☆Unusual Hobbirs☆★---

Posted: December 14th, 2009, 9:25am PST

I think that hobbies are very fun things that people like to do in their spare time. A hobby is able to be anything from playing a game or a sport, to making or collecting things, or having a special interest in some area.
There are a lot of kinds of special interest hobbies, which are able to bring together groups of like-minded people.
Moreover I think that it is very important and essential for everyone to have various hobbies which we would like to do. Recently, I started to think that I would like to increase my hobbies and I ought to challenge which I want to do now!!
Whatever happens, I try to do my best more and more!!! (127 words)

BR 2-09:---★☆Helping　Out☆★---

Posted: December 14th, 2009, 9:24am PST

After I read this book, I think that to help other people and around person is very important for everyone. Moreover I thought that how matter when I am tired, I ought to help around people every time. I am going to introduce you about this book’s story from now on.

I think that we always do unpaid work. Unpaid work is work that people do without getting paid for it. Everybody does these unpaid works. For example, there are to iron clothes, cleaning the kitchen and so on.
Communities could not operate if people did not do unpaid work. A lot of needy people would not get help. This is because communities cannot afford to pay people to do all the jobs that are needed. Even a household could not operate if people did not unpaid work-like vacuuming the carpet.
Home duties are unpaid jobs that are done at own home. Home duties also involve tasks like cleaning the house, washing the car and mowing the lawn. Some households pay someone to do these tasks for them. However, in most households, people do not have enough money to pay other people to do their home duties.
Moreover there are also various volunteers in unpaid work. Volunteers are people who do a job for the satisfaction of helping others. Volunteers do many different types of jobs. Some volunteers read books onto tapes so that people with poor eyesight are able to listen. Some volunteers deliver meals to elder or sick people. Some volunteers help tourists who visit a city during a major event. Volunteers help whenever a community is hit by natural disaster. Volunteers assist in putting out bush fires. They might also help to evacuate people from areas that have been flooded or hit by an earthquake or tunami. Some communities require volunteers more than others. Communities that do not have much money require a great deal of help from volunteers.
Communities with a large number of elderly people might require more help from volunteers than communities with more young people.
Without volunteers, some communities could not operate. (357 words)

BR 2-03: Happy Birthday, THOMAS!

Posted: October 6th, 2009, 4:26pm PDT

I selected this book, because I like Thomas very much! When I found Thomas’s book in Gakuen university library, I chose this book without losing my way. I didn’t know that there is Tomas’s book in KGU library until now. I’m going to introduce the story of this book from now on.

Thomas and his friends work hard every day. However Thomas doesn’t want to work today. The reason that today is Thomas’s birthday!! He would like to hold a birthday party, with presents, some balloons, and silly hats. But one of his friends, Sir Topham Hatt says that Henry is busy today. Gordon and James are also busy today. In other words, everyone is busy today, so Thomas has to work with everyone, too. Therefore Thomas goes to his branch line. Thomas carries people, he carries a lot of animals, carries some much wood, and so on. After Thomas sees his friends near the engine shed. No one says, “ Happy birthday!!” It seems as if Thomas’s friends forgot that today is his birthday, so Thomas becomes very sad mind then. At the end of the day Thomas comes back his home. When Thomas arrives his house, his friends hold a surprise birthday party for Thomas. Thomas knows it, he is very happy and Thomas is proud of his friends then. In the evening, Thomas has a nice day with his friends.

Though I read this book, we have to glad to be our friends. Moreover my friends are very important and precious for me. I would like to communication a lot of people and make lots of important friends forever.

---☆★"Beef Stew"★☆---

Posted: October 2nd, 2009, 12:25pm PDT

I choice this book, because I like beef stew very much. Especially I often have beef stew in winter season. Moreover the reason that I selected this book was this illustration of the book is good and cute for me, I was pleased about how to use various color of this book's illustration when I found out this book. Besides I knew that this book is popular from this book's lending slip, so seventeen people have ever lent this book. Therefore I selected this book. I'm going to talk about this story and content from now on.

A boy which is called Nicky woke up, because Nicky smelled something good from his house's kitchen in the morning. It was beef stew which his mother made!! She cooked lots of stew then, so Nicky ran off to his school to find friends who have free time in the night, on account of eating it with everyone. However Nicky didn't find out anyone who liked beef stew and have free time, so he became very sad mind then. When he went through near his house, a postman handed Nicky a post card. Nicky read the post card and he started jumping up and down, because his grandmother came to see him. The night Nicky ate beef stew which was made by his mother with his grandmother and the mother at his home. And he had a nice evening very much.

After I read this book, I found that each other family is very precious for everyone. I would like to recommend someone as I like one of the books. (269 words)

---☆★Writing class★☆---

Posted: September 29th, 2009, 10:54am PDT

I had a Writing class in first period on Wednesdays. I’m going to write about today’s class content from now on. In today’s writing class, I saw a lot of classmate’s blogs and I ought to advise about the classmate’s blog opinions.

I plan to follow Yumi's advice "My friends writing blog has a lot of pictures. I think to paste a lot of pictures is interested to reader”. (Yumi,7/8/2009), because that I agree with Yumi’s the opinion. I also think that it is important for me to paste a lot of photos when we make new blog. Therefore I think that I ought to do my best about it when I make my blog more and more.Second, Masumi also had a nice idea, “I must more comment for my classmates”. (MASUMI, 7/15/2009). I plan to do that, too. Because I felt that I didn’t quite can comment for my classmate’s blog, so I would like to comment for my classmate’s blog in this term.
Third, I plan to follow Hikari’s advice “I should use more different words when I write blog”. (Light Blog Yeah, 7/8/2009), because that I think so, too. When I read Hikari’s blog, I ought to study various English words more and more and I would like to use a lot of words on my blog without my electronic dictionary. Therefore I will try to study English words step by step from now on.
Forth, I plan to follow Saki’s advice “We should write our blogs every day”. (SAKI BLOG, 7/22/2009). I plan to do about that, too. Because I feel like to don’t drop into it to make up my blog every day now, so I ought to draw out my blog as often as possible.
Finally, I selected out Yurina’s blog. I plan to follow Yurina’s advice “I should use more pictures and graphics”. (YURIBOOOOOH HOUSE, 7/17/2009), because that if there were a lot of pictures and graphics on the blogs, I would feel like wanting to read and see the blogs, so I would like to put lots of pictures on my blog as many as possible I can in this term’s blog. And I thought that I want everyone to show my blog.

Thanks for everyone’s wonderful suggestions. Through this operation, I was able to look back my spring term’s blog and I could learn a lot of things. For instance, I thought that I ought to study English words and I have to use it as many as possible, I must paste many pictures and graphics to read my blog easily, and so on. In this term, I would like to try to contrive my blog. (446 words)

---☆★Vacation plans★☆---

Posted: June 30th, 2009, 4:34pm PDT

In this summer vacation, I would like to make a lot of nice memories with my friends and my family. I have many things which I want to do with everyone. For instance, I want to go shopping in downtown and Fukuoka, travel in foreign countries, go to the sea, and so on. Such as there are lots of things, however I think that naturally, I would like to also study various things to increase knowledge and come up my future dream. Owing to do a lot of things in this summer, I think that I decide about my plans and ought to act in advance. (106 words)

---☆★Liro And Stitch（part 2)★☆---

Posted: June 30th, 2009, 11:26am PDT

I watched the DVD whose title is “Liro And Stitch” the other day. I will introduce you the “Liro And Stitch” DVD’s story from now on. And I will talk about my feeling. When I watched this movie, I learned various things.

First of all, I will introduce you about “Liro And Stitch” DVD’s story. Girl Lillo who lived in Hawaiian Kauai Island lost parents, and Lilo lived with her older sister Nani. What decided to keep a dog for Lilo without the friend, however Lilo selected Stitch which was trial product number 626 by the gene experiment of the Dr. jumper not a dog. Although Stitch that it was made destruction as a purpose by the gene experiment of the Dr. jumper, Stitch became Lilo’s family, in other words, “Ohana”, Lilo taught consideration and gentleness and Stitch was happy and lived as "a good child" in Hawaii. However, because when I made Stitch for trial product 626, a Dr. jumper was taken by Milky Way Federales, and molecule energy of Stitch was not supplied well, Stitch caused a internal circuit accident and turns back to "a bad child" going on the rampage. What could save Stitch had only Lilo, David, a jumper, love and the courage of "Ohana" all the members. Ultimately owing to everything of being around Stitch, Stitch came back "a good child" without hindrance.

Second I will talk about my feeling in my real life from now on. I thought that even if there is not Stitch with a true Liro family, Stitch is able to live with Liro family, everyone trusts each other and they lead a nice life over help together such as real family. Therefore Stitch was admitted to be one of Liro’s family members and Stitch could become “Ohana”.

Next, I thought that it’s important for everyone to keep various Hawaiian cultures in this DVD. For example everyone gather one place, they dance each other merrily and they see dancing over eat dinner outside at night.

In my real life, we, that is to say, Japanese cherish various Japanese cultures, too. For instance, enka, in other words, sad and melancholic, tea ceremony, sumo, the Bon dancing and so on. I felt we ought to continue trying to remember to treasure our own a lot of cultures.

I watched this DVD about “Liro And Stitch”, I felt that my family and my friends are very precious for me. I learned a lot of things from this DVD. I reconfirmed that what we have consideration for everything and everyone is important thing. (430 words)

I will introduce you about this baby from now on. The name of my sister's baby is "Shion". My sister and her husband named it for their baby. The "Shion" 's name expresses "Shi" of purple and "On" of Oto. And I asked my sister that "why did you named the baby "Shion."!? I hear that purple color stands for elegant and respect as honorable color. Following kanzi's derivation of "Shi", "Oto"'s kanzi looks like gilr's image. Therefore they named the baby "Shion".

I am glad to be born a vigorous baby, however I am a bit sad now. Because I became a aunt now.(204 words)
