Minnesota life8

This homestay was so good experience for my life. I met many kind people.
I was so happy to stay my host family's house.I will write year book essay.

Dear my host family
I have been to the foreign country for the first time. So, I was very excited and I had a good experience.Minnesota has many lakes and they are very beautiful. I like lakes in Minnesota. There are very beautiful nature and many animals. I saw deer and squirrels for the first time in Minnesota. When I was in Japan, I couldn't talk positively to teacher of the foreigner because I was afraid that it was wrong, but my host family and people who live inMinnesota listen to me even if I speak very slowly and I don't speak English well. I know that it is very fun to take communication. So, I'm not afraid to talk foreigner in English. People who come from various countries live in America. So, I made friends who are not from America. I had many good experiences In Minnesota. Thank you for becoming the host family.Thank you for teaching me many things. I want to go to Minnesota again Someday!!!(12102/12000)

BR:2-30 SCOTLAND

There is nowhere like Scotland. Scotland is the country north of England, part of Great Britain(England, Scotland and Wales) and of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland). It is a country in a country.


Scotland is a book in the Facfiles series. Factfiles, as you may know, is a sub-series of Oxford Bookworms. Scotland is a Stage 1 book.

The book is divided into ten chapters. Each chapter consists of two facing pages, with the exception of Chapter 1 , which is an introductory chapter of only one page. The ten chapters are: This is Scotland, Scotland today, Scotland's past, Edinburgh, Glasgow, The highlands, The islands, Traditional Scotland, Eating and Drinking, Scotland tomorrow. These ten chapters are followed by a map and, as with other Factfiles books, some exercises and a glossary.

The language, as one would expect with a Stage 1 book, is quite simple, the only difficult feature being the large number of proper nouns, unavoidable in a book introducing a city. Sentences tend to be quite short and simple. For example, the 18 sentences on page 2 have the following lengths 9, 16, 15, 15, 22, 6, 14, 10, 21, 17, 12, 21, 14, 13, 12, 17, 11, and 12. This yields a mean of 14.2 words per sentence. The general pattern appears to be a short sentence followed by a longer one. Looking more closely at the longer sentences, we can see that many are composed of two indepent dauses joined by the conjunction "but" or"and". 

I will tell you about section 1: This is Scotland. We can know about Scotland. Scotland is north of England. People who live in scotland love beautiful nature. They are warm and friendly, and funny. (10287/12000)








My favorite club


My favorite club is the Brass Band club. When I was a high school student, I belonged to the Brass Band club. I played the Bass clarinet. It was very big and the tone was very low. I liked it. The Brass band uses many musical instruments. I try to play other instruments. It was very fun, but I like to play the Bass clarinet the best. My club had many people. We were very close. I liked them very much. A teacher was very good player. He played the flute. He was very well. He commanded our club. He was very good conductor.
He was sometimes angry to us. We were afraid of him, but we liked him because we liked his music very much. We practiced every day. I was tired, but I enjoyed every day because I liked to play it with my teammates. Next, I want to play other instruments. I try to play it someday. I want to play a cello. I like cello's tone, but my hand is very small. It is a little hard for me to play it. I want to play a horn too!! I like horn's form.(10001/12000)











My favorite vacation memory

My favorite vacation memory is last Christmas. I went Tokyo because my favorite musician had a concert. I went to the concert with my aunt. I was very happy to see them last Christmas. I bought their goods. These goods were very cool. Tokyo was very cold. I and my aunt felt very cold. There was a concert near the sea. We could see the sea. At seven, it started to the concert. I was very excited. My favorite musician was so cool!!! I was so happy to hear their song. Last Christmas was the best vacation in my life. After the concert, I went to my aunt's house. I stayed there. I could see my cousins. I was happy too. I talked to them a long time. I enjoyed talking them. I took a picture with them. They were very kind and interesting. I want to go Tokyo again.(9805/12000)
