How I look like

This is how look like. The computer interprets faces with some points on the faces. So, I think it is not how I look like. I introduce the site to you. You can play with it.

Speech

I have a speech next week. In my educational class, students are required to have a speech one time each person. It’s my turn next week. I will speak about bully. Recently, students have too many bullies in Japan. They are suffering even when we are laughing daily life. I do not allow the students who bully other students. And the educational congress decided a measure that students who bully other students should be responsible for it. I do not think so, and teachers should not adopt this measure. However, it helps teachers with bullies, because the students won’t do bullies thanks to it.
I want to talk more about this, but I do not have much time for that. I’m so sorry for that.

Bad Condition

I felt sick last night. I feel terrible and have stomach ache every 6 months.
I went to hospital at 3 o’clock in the midnight. A doctor checked my body and he gave me some medicine.
I thought what the most important thing in my life is health at that time.

Book Review 10: Oranges in the Snow

It was a kind of games. You are Mary Durie in the story. You are experimenting a special flower in a laboratory. You heat the flower with a liquid, and you and your assistant drink it. Both of you can see in the dark and you go out of there. You find some strangers out of the laboratory. You are thinking that the flower helps people who cannot see anything.
You can choose some selection from the bottom of the sentences. You can follow the orders and you will see the lasting stories.
I found it is boring story because you have to turn many pages every time you choose orders that the book shows. I was irritated by the book and I did not want to continue to read it any more.
However, the story finishes like below. The thieves who took the flower were arrested by police and you and your assistant captured them because the assistant remembered the faces. He remembers them because they tied him. According to his mind, one of them has bear and smells oranges. You are going to find the thieves at town. You enter a restaurant. There are many customers, and you can find the men. You take seats and watch the men. They are talking about something. One of the men takes a notebook on the table. It is yours!! You find that they are the thieves. You call police and police gives them many questions. Finally, police gives you the flower and your notebook.

Difficult Questions for Me

Sometimes, we can see people from foreign countries in our hometown. And some of them have to ask us some questions. As you know, not all of the Japanese can speak English correctly, and some of them cannot speak it at all. How do you communicate with the foreigners when you cannot speak English? We often have conversation troubles like that.
I learned it is the most important thing to have communication with foreign people is not try to speak English correctly or perfectly. The most important thing is to say something that you want to say in English. It doesn’t matter it is correct or not.
I think this is one of the answers for many conversation troubles, but it cannot be true all the time. If it IS the answer, why have you studied English so long time? Did it go wrong? I don’t think so. The way we have studied English is right and it is the correct English, I think.I want to be an English teacher in the future, and I didn’t want to learn such a way to speak English. I know it is the practical way, but if I said it is the right way to communicate, how can I teach to my students English? Do I have to say “You don’t need to study English correctly. Take it easy. You don’t need to study English because you won’t speak much in the future.”? What is the correct answer? I’m confused recently. And I think no one knows the correct answer for every thing.

Book Review9: Five Children and It

I read a book called “Five children and it”. It was about wishes and the strange creature that five children found in the sand hill.
They moved from London to countryside with their family. The five children were excited to the moving, but the parents did not. They were not rich, and they did not have anything to do because of that. The children run out of the car as soon as they arrived at new house. There was a small garden on the other side of the house, and a sand hill was over there.
One afternoon, the children decided to play at the sand hill. They went to the bottom of it, and they began to play. The oldest daughter shouted suddenly, because she found something strange. It had eyes that were out of its face and it was furry. It was small, and it could speak human language!! It could make the dreams come true. The children asked to it that it made their whishes come true. It granted that, but it did not always work correctly.
One the other day, it made the wises come true but all of those made things terrible. Some thieves stole jewels from another house. One of the children wished that it would belong their mother. IT made come true, but the children knew it would be terrible. They did not want to make it true, but it was too late. Their wish had made true!!
They wanted it to quit the wish and they hurried to the sand hill. It enjoyed the sunlight. As soon as it saw the children, it tried to escape into sand. However, Anthea captured it. They wished that it should make all of the things what it were. It made the wish true and children wished the last one. They wished that it could take a long sleep and they would meet it again some day. It went big, and went small. They left the sand hill and went back to their house. Everything was all right. The mother forgot about the thieves or everything, and the jewels were found in the owner's house.
They children wanted to see it some day and the day could come...

In Teaching Class

We have speech in the class for teaching. The class is offered for the students who want to be teachers, so we can be teachers in the future if we take the class. There are many types of students in the class, and some people want to be teacher very much and others not. I’m the first one. However, the teachers in the class have told us how difficult it is to being teachers. We have learned the difficulties to be teachers. We have to learn about educational problems.
I do not want to learn about the difficulties to be a teacher, but I think I have to because there are no easy works in the world. I recognized that grown up people live in so many hard works, and they live with many fights in daily life. When I think that, energy comes to me and I am encourage. There are no easy works in the world, but we can make them fantastic jobs with our positive.

On Wednesday

I had the first class for studying abroad in Britain yesterday. It took 90 minutes in my university. It was for preparation. We played a card game that we had to answer what it was. There were many varieties of pictures. We had to take one card for each person, and put them on our head. Meanwhile we could not see he cards of our own. Other people said what were they but we cannot say the correct answer. We could say how it look like, or how we use that without its name. It took so long but it was fun for me.
The teacher said that Japanese likely to use difficult words or complicated phrases. However, it does make any sense. We have to use more available words or phrases. I agree with him about that.

Book Review 8: Lost Love

There was a man, and he lived in a town. He wanted to move into countryside because the town was hot in summer. One day, he went to a country and his car was broken in the middle of the country. He had to walk to the nearest town, but it seemed too much time. And then, he saw a girl. She was beautiful and she had flowers in her hands. “What a beautiful girl she is!” he thought. He wanted her to help with his car and wanted to speak to her. She was frightened, but she invited him to her village to help him. At her village, he had good time with her family, but they did not know about cars at all. The time came that he had to go and get some petrol for his car. He wanted to see her again, and he asked about the village to the man at the petrol station. He looked strange sight to him and told him about a strange about the village.
The soldiers of Oliver Cromwell burned the village in the time of the English Civil War, so there were no villages near the station. He could not understand because the War happened for three hundred and fifty years ago. For one day in ten years, the village appeared just for one day. From the story, the visitors who came to the village had to leave the village before morning. If they won’t, they had to stay there forever. That’s why Mary said that he had to leave in the night.
Ten years passed and he could not have forgotten about Mary for nine years. He decided to come back to the village and stay there with her.

Book Review 7: The Call of the Wild

This was a story of a dog which name was Buck. He was very big and he lived with a rich family.
One day, he was taken by one of gardeners who had big family. He stole Buck and made money for his big family. Buck had to go to north place to be a sledge-dog. People live there need big, strong dogs to find gold mines. Buck had no choice except to one of them. The first owners had a lot of knowledge about dogs, cold climate, and other things. They traveled so many miles together. Buck also met many other dogs on the way to the destinations. Some were kind to Buck, and others weren’t. Buck had to be strong to be alive. Buck learned fast. For example, wild animals sleep under snow in the cold weather. He saw other dogs did that and he did that, too. The owners thought that Buck was cleaver and he worth more than one hundred dollars.
There was a dog named Spitz which was Buck’s enemy. They did hate each other and Buck wanted to fight with him to be the leader of his sledge-dogs. The owners knew that the fight would not be avoided and they let Buck as he wanted. One night, they stayed at Lake Laberge. Spitz stole a hole that Buck had made in snow. He got angry with him and they started the final fight. It was the first and they knew it would be the last one. However, they found eighty or a hundred of dogs around their sledge. Their fight was interrupted and they had to fight with the dogs. The wild dogs were very strong, so some of the dogs which belonged Buck’s team were killed. The other team dogs had to leave the sledge and ran away from it. They spent an unhappy night without their owners. In the next morning, they returned to the sledge and left the lake to their destination. After the journey, they were very tired and the dogs needed a long rest. The owners knew that, so they sold the dog to the other people.
The next owners were terrible for the dogs. They did not know anything about sledge nor sledge-dogs. They did not allow the dogs to take any rest because they thought the dogs were lazy. Buck needed a long rest, but owners did not allow to, so Buck was always angry with them.
On one spring day, it was wonderful and beautiful day. Buck and other sledge-dog pulled the sledge as usual. The company arrived at beside a river. There was a young man. He stayed by the river because he had been ill. The owners asked the young man whether they could across the river or not. The man answered no, but they decided to go on. The man knew much about journey in north, so he said no. He thought he had to stop them, but he stopped saying words because the owners seemed to refuse him. The moment that the owners tried to move the sledge with whip, he jumped to the owner. The young man loved dogs, and animals. He saw that Buck refused to go on, he took a knife that the owner had and cut a rope that was around Buck’s neck. Buck was free from any other hunger or pain then. The owners start to across the river, and they went slowly into water. They were dead like that.
Buck helped the young man with his many troubles. He loved the young man from bottom of his heart. The young man saved the Buck’s life, and they were good friends. Two friends of the young’s man came back and he joined the team. They wanted to find gold. They traveled many places an at last, they found them!! However, there were Yeehats in the woods and the team wee murdered by them. Buck was alone again, and he met a wolf in the woods. He joined the crowds of wolves and Buck became the leader of the wolves.
There is a tail that is told by some Yeehats. They see a wild dog which leads wolves in moonlight. No one knows where Buck is now.
