Writing Test

I’ll talk about my developing awareness in this semester. We have to have high awareness before we begin to study English. This thing can say another study, for example, mathematic, Japanese and so on.

In this semester, we had to post some essay, day life, book review and more. Then, we must use English languages and write 15000 words so we need more words, grammar and writing forth. Moreover, we have to use PC and many items so CMC technology was high. In addition, we received much e-mail from Mr. Tomei and Mr. Pabeaufait and we had to check all e-mail and finished some homework. I think that all homework made me typing quickly and CMC technology became high. I can do it more than spring semester.

Second, I’ll talk about my facing challenges. In this semester, all things were challenge for me. However, I think that the most my major challenge is typing homework. We have to write about 1 title in 5 min.

In this semester, we have to 120 words in 5 min. This thing was very hard for me and I couldn’t write 120 words first. It was very hard for me and this homework took a lot of time because we have to try many times until we can write 120 words in 5 min. However, I want to type more quickly and I believe that if I’m able to finish this work, I can type more quickly. It was the fight with own and I win this fight! I could response to my challenge.

I’ll talk about my achieving satisfaction. In spring semester, we had to put picture with book review. These things are fall semester too and I put picture many times. Moreover, we had to post presentation and PowerPoint. It is easy to put the picture but PowerPoint is a little difficult. I could put picture and PowerPoint in my blog. This is my major achieving satisfaction. First time, I couldn’t come up with this class but my personal learning was gradually suited to me. All homework made me more wizards!!

BR 2-18; Antarctic Animals

Today I read the book ‘Antarctic Animals’ and this book introduce about Antarctic animals. We can easy to hit on some Antarctic animals. For example, penguin, white bears and seals. When I think about Antarctic animals, I can’t think only these animals. However, there are more animals in Antarctic and some scientists find out more animals.

Living in the water is very difficult things too me. However, it is very easy to live for sea animals because there is a lot of oxygen in the cold water. In the sea, there are not only big animal but also live very small animals. There is much plankton at the Antarctic sea and there is a food chain. Plankton is eaten by krill and krill is eaten by fish and fish is eaten by whales. This cycle is very important and if the cycle disappears, the Antarctic’s cycle will dead.

We can’t go Antarctic often and almost people can’t go there. So we can’t feel real. I didn’t know about Antarctic but I read the book and I can learn a little. I like penguin and seal so I want to learn more. If I can, I want to go there.

BR 2-17; Aspirin

Today, I read the book ‘Aspirin’ and this book introduce about aspirin. Aspirin is the drug which can leave aches and pains. For example, headaches, when they have a fever. Aspirin made by willow bark and it used long time ago. People used to make a medicine from the bark of t he tree to help people.

Many scientists tried to find out what was the willow bark. In 1828, Johann Buchner found that it had yellow chemical in it. He invented this drug and it can leave aches and pains but after use it, they had stomach pains. Many scientists invented aspirin like Johann Buchner. After that, aspirin was perfect drug.

Now, aspirin made into a tablet and this is great idea. Because it is easy to drink and we can felt a few taste bad. Today, all over the world, one billion aspirin tablets are taken each week. I think that scientist who lived long time ago is very genius and very kind. If they didn’t kind, they didn’t think that tried to help people.

BR 2-16; Cars

Cars were first made over 100 years ago. But this year’s cars were very simple. By the 1990s, car companies had started up all over the world. In America, Henry Ford is very famous car maker and he made the way to make a lot of cars quickly and sell them at low cost. Because, a few people bought car.

These days, car is important vehicle for us. Some country’s people don’t use them but it is very important for developed country like Japan, America. We can’t go outside without car. Many people rely on the car.

However, there are many car accidents in Japan recently. In addition, many people dead or injured by car accident. When I was a 5 years old, I had car accident too and I was very afraid then. Many people dead by care accident more than suicide. It is very sad things.

Car security’s level is raising but car accident is rising too. Why is that? I think that many people careless about them driving. Moreover, some people drive their car with drinking alcohol. We have to review our driving manner.

However, they were developing with long time and they could live in the river. I think that the force of life is very strong and wonderful thing. Thanks to them, we can live now and we can grow everyday. Why they decided to move river from sea? Because, there are many enemies in the sea and if they live in the sea forever, they couldn’t save there descendant. So, they decided to move river.

Now, there are many dinosaurs’ bones and scientist guess many ideas. One scientist think they died out after a meteorite hit the earth. Other scientist believes that they died out after the earth’s climate changed suddenly because of natural events. I believe that first idea. In many books use the first idea so I think that first idea. Actually, everyone can’t sea that scene so everyone doesn’t know.

And then, all dinosaurs was dead by starve. There is many dinosaurs’ question which we can’t resolve still. I think that more interesting things at dinosaur’s field. I want to concern this field in the future and of course, with English! I try to learn this field more.

Essay 2-03a

Hi everyone! Today, I’ll talk about my present university and how will be my university after 25 years. I’m Gakuen University student and now, I’m grade two at university. My university was constructed in 1942 and Gakuen University has very deep history. Moreover, Gakuen University is one of the famous universities in Kumamoto. So, if you come to Gakuen University, absolutely you can find your friend!

After 25 years, I’ll be 45 years old and may be， I’ll have some children. Moreover, my children will go KGU. I hope that the university continues. Then, I’ll compare present university days with after 25 year’s university days. First, I’ll talk about present university days.

There are many students in Gakuen University and they each belongs one faculty. There are 4 faculties in Gakuen Univ. and the department of commercial science, economics, social welfare and foreign language. We can choose only one faculty. In other words, we have to choose just one faculty. In the class, all teacher use blackboard and they write on the blackboard. They write important words or sentences in the board and almost teacher give us some prints. However, we almost study from the prints and teacher’s talking. Now, we can choose class so our school timetable is deferent each other. We can choose about 15 classes and we can choose some classes, which we are interested in that. Then, we have term examination and we have to come the school. If we absent, we can’t get credit. Instead of an examination, we have to write a paper but after 25 years, we can have examination at own house so we can get credit if we only study. In addition, we can have examination when we will be sick.



After 25 years, there are few students in Gakuen University because the declining birth rate is being carried fast. Now, there are about 7000 students in this university. However, there will be about 6000 students after 25 years. After 25 years, there are 6 faculties in Gakuen University. I think that faculty will increase because internationalization will be more and we will have to study many things more than now. For example, these faculty will add; the faculty of low, the faculty of communication. Communication is very important from now. May be, Japan government will try to raise many kinds of technology and then, we need other countries help. In this situation, it may be advantageous to me. Moreover, we have to choose two faculties this reason is the same.

In the class, we have class with an iPad so we will not use blackboard. We will use iPads at the class so we need not have many prints. We can preserve all things in the iPad!
If the thing will true, we can have the class very easy. Moreover, we can have term examination at my house after 25 years. If we have term examination at the house, teacher can keep an eye on them. Because, we will have term examination at PC and the technology will be well more then now.

I think that we will have more useful school life after 25 years because the technology will be well. Now, the facilities of Gakuen University are well. There are many PCs and there are many books in the library. In addition, we can easy to go abroad and study. I can’t go Gakuen University after 25 years. However, if I have children after 25 years, I want to recommend this university to my children. I will be able to enroll my children in Gakuen University because I know about Gakuen University so I can relief. Moreover, I think that Gakuen University is very good university. When I was a high school student, I have but image to this university. However, I like this university now and I spend very good time now. So, I want to spend these good times to my children and I hope that my children will be able to spend good time.

I choose these faculties because this is my hope and dream. If Gakuen University will be like my idea, we can learn more things.

BR 2-10: Butler

I read the book 'Butluer School'.
After the graduation. the students have a small party- compleate with champagne. 'I did it' says one very happy student. 'To good health' says Mr. Spencer. Before they came here, these young men and women may have driven buses, worked with computers, or even worked in restaurants od stores. Now, they are butlers and they are part of a very old English tradition. The lvor Spencer for Butler Administrators has done its job well.

I like this sentence because the school graduating is very difficult and this sentence made by graduation student. I didn’t know there are the butler school and butler have to practice many things, for example: how to carry champagne and glasses, how to serve drinks courteously and how to choose wine. There are many things more and they can graduate. Mr. Spencer is the labor the school. He said 'Important things is keeping their hopes up'. I think that too and these things can say everything!

I had never seen butler so I want to meet them. And, I want to ask them why did you enter the school. Moreover, why did you want to be butler? Then, I want to practice a little with them. Do you want to that?

Hi everyone. Today, I’ll talk about my university and how will be the university after 25 years. First, I’ll talk about my present university.

There are many students in Gakuen University and every student have a good time. We choose about 15 classes; moreover we had about 20 classes when I was a first grade at university. Now, I belonged to English class so I study English. Moreover, we have to choose second language so I choose Spanish. Then, there are 4 languages, Spanish, Dutch, Russian, French. French is the most difficult class and my friend said so.

I think there are a few people in university after 25 years. The reason why, a declining number of children is being carried fast. Then, may be class will decrease and teacher will decrease too. Moreover, we have to choose third and forth languages because Japan will more internationalize.

2-02c My learning language

I’ll talk about my learning language experience. I learned 3 languages; Japanese, English and Spanish. I’ll talk these languages my experience. I think that I have good learning language experience. First, I’ll introduce my Japanese learning experience.

We naturally learn Japanese if we are Japan people. When I was young, our parents teach us easy words at first. May be, almost people’s first language teacher are their parents. Moreover, first every parent thought this word to their child, Papa or Mama. My mother said that I think, mama first. I think that we are very happy because we could say the person who born us and take our life. In addition, this is very wonderful thing.
When we enter the primary school, we study national language. We call it Kokugo in Japanese. We study at primary school many things, for example, kanji, and novel. These things make us talk in Japanese easily but it is very difficult to foreigner. Japanese have many parts of speech called Hinshi in Japanese. There are 11 Hinshi in Japanese and these things make Japanese difficult. Moreover, Japanese have difficult honorific word, so sometimes I think that Japanese is very difficult. I have to learn Japanese during me alive.Next, I’ll introduce my English learning experience.

I started English when I was a junior high school student. We had English class and first we studied spell. I was very interested in English because I’ve never seen this language then. I studied very hard and English became my forte field. These things guided I choose English class at high school and university. English used many countries and it is official language. Then, we have to study hard English. English sentence made noun, verb and pronoun so English is easier than Japanese. English used many countries and regions but pronunciation is different at each region.　
When I was a junior high school student and high school student, I went to England and Canada exchange student. Then, I experienced different pronunciation. Usually, we pronounce English American English so I pronounced English by American English when I went to England. Then, my host mother said to me “British English’s pronunciation is true”. I was very surprised but I accepted words. British proud their English pronunciation, and I could understand different pronunciation. I want to master both of pronunciation and I want to spread my outlook. Third, I’ll talk about my Spanish learning experience.

University, I learned it when I was first grade. We have to choose one secondly language. I choose Spanish because Spanish used many countries too. It was very interesting to me but Spanish’s pronunciation was very difficult. When we speak in Spanish, sometimes we have to speak with a trill. This is the most difficult things for me. Spanish class’s impact is very big because the teacher is very unique. I want to study Spanish more but I like English too so I have to study both languages.There are many languages in this world. I learn only 3 languages so I want to study many languages.

I want to go France and Italy when I have free time and much money. I want to study very hard and moreover; I study various countries’ each culture too. Now, I want to study Korean very much because my favorite movie and drama star is Korean. So I want to go Korean too.
