BR 2-15: Saving the PANDAS

When I found this book, I chose the book because the cover of this book is picture of panda and this picture of panda is so cute and this panda is bring a leaf of bamboo in the panda's hands. It is so nice. I like a baby of panda because they are so small and like a cloud and cute and funny and they have hair color of white and black. They are so activity and vitality.

But panda is decreasing recently. So, panda is protected by people. For example, WWF is protecting many pandas. WWF is a company to protect panda. WWF started activity of protection of a giant panda taking advantage of the field survey carried out in 1981. And there are many kinds of panda. For example, we know a giant panda. A giant panda is the animal currently loved widely. However, the future of a giant panda is not necessarily bright because the number of giant panda is decreasing. Now, The number of the present giant panda is a little more than about 1,600. So, the Chinese government founded 30 or more giant panda refuges until now. 

And when I was a child, I have seen panda at zoo. I also saw many penguins and bear, many rabbits and dogs and some elephants and so on. I felt that panda was so cute because they have hair color of white and black. I like white color and black color because these color is cool and cute. So, I like a Holstein, too because they have hair color of white and black, too. Then I thought that their hair is white and black, but what color they have skin? If I take their hair, what color I can see? I thought, and I checked it. And I found it. Panda has skin color of pink and a horse which have hair color of white and black have skin color of chocolate brown. And  Holstein has skin color of white and black. So, If I take their hair, an animal which have skin color of white and black is only Holstein. So, white and black color of panda is only hair. I see.

And panda often eat leaves of bamboo. When I was a child, I saw the lunch time of panda. I felt that the leaves of bamboo looks like so delicious and I thought that I want to eat a leaf, too. But I did not want to eat just a leaf which we often eat leaf of vegetable, I wanted to eat a wild leaf. And, my older brother also thought that same thing. So, we were going to seek a wild leaf out side from our house. Then, we found a wild leaf at front of a door of our house. So, we challenged to eat the wild leaf and the taste of a wild leaf was so awful and unappetizing. But my older brother kept it in him mouth. So, I was surprised it. 

And I thought that panda is used on politics between Japan and china. We have a problem about panda because when we rental some pandas, Japan spend big money. It becomes one of some important points on politics between Japan and China. we need to think well about it. The thing which is to come some pandas may be pleasant for a zoo and a lot of fan of panda but the thing has serious problem with them. Especially, when we have a problem between Japan and China, we must think about our taking appropriate actions.

BR 2-5: THE USA


I chose this book because I want to know American history, culture, popular thing, and so on. I thought that I need knowledge about USA on learning English because I have a plan which is studying abroad for a month. I am going to go to Saint Paul, Minnesota in America for home stay for a month in summer of this year. So, I thought that I need to know things about America for home stay before going there.

This book is written about George Washington, history, the war of independence, signing the declaration of independence, Abraham Lincoln, cowboy, the state of liberty, Black Americans, America is Black and white, the government of the USA, the white house, the Mississippi river and Niagara Falls.

First, I could know and understand American history by reading this book and I could know historic back ground and cultural back ground of America. I like the declaration of independence and Abraham Lincoln because I felt that contents of the declaration of independence has a transparent feeling, limpid, bright and clear, I think that the declaration of independence is a great fruit of people who fought for freedom and equality. And I felt that he was loved by people and god because he was thinking seriously about real justice and he was praying to god for real justice, people and America. So, he is a great person. I think, America must not lost liberty, global justice and mind of toleration because America is a country of liberty and America was made by people who have the ambition for freedom, justice, equality and glory of god.

Next, I was thought about some problems of Jim Crow, white society and gun society by reading this book, too. I think that the collapse of the karma of humanity that brought by ethnic discrimination by whites will have to happen. Although America is a power of freedom, America has a problem of a drug and a gun, some are covered in a variety of corruption. So, I feel that a discipline should be made about them. I do not hope that America declines by becoming obvious of karma of civilization of whites superiority and depravity and I want America to keep to hold a mind of freedom, tolerance, and justice, evolve further into a strong country which can realize a peace and prosperity of the world while pursuit real justice.

And this book is written about a government in America. I thought that a government of now in America is leaning socialism but the tendency is not good because a country can’t develop and a country will be weak and poor by socialism. In fact, a national defense expenditure of America was decreased by Obama. It is one of causes of weaken of a country. And although the plan of tax increase on the wealthy was avoided after all, Obama has said to raise taxes on the wealthy before. The tax increase on the wealthy is so dangerous for economics in America because the wealthy will escape from America because of the tax increase and a lot of money is lost from America. The tax increase is opposite effects for tax revenue and it only make matters worse. And Japan also has same problem about these. I want a politician to choose a way of develop for our country.

I felt that imaging it and thinking it is interesting a little. If I cook something with solar energy, I want to try to cook some dish with solar energy. And it is experiment for me. First, I will cook sunny-side up because I feel that it can cook easily with solar energy. Next I will cook a pan cake with the solar energy because I like a pan cake and it only burn with solar energy. And if I can cook a pan cake with solar energy, I will cook scrambled eggs next because it is easier to cook than to cook a pan cake.

Some who has a kitchen which is used a solar energy cook a dish with solar energy because what they used it is so good and becoming a save money.

It is so important for us to be blessed a solar energy because we need a solar energy because solar energy makes a lot of energy. And I introduce about solar energy to you. The solar energy poured on surface of the earth is about 1 kW per square meter. When this is considered as solar energy poured on the whole earth, it is a thing to the extent that the annual consumption energy in the world can be provided in only 1 hour. The solar energy power generation system which generates electricity using this solar energy is a clean system which does not take out excretions at all in a power generation process and it is very important also from a viewpoint of energy security and global environmental protection. However, generally, energy density of solar energy is thin and there are problems, like being influenced by natural conditions and cost of a solar energy power generation system is comparatively high-priced. For this reason, many results, such as attaining top-class conversion efficiency for the technical development for utilization of photovoltaics, etc. globally as real almsgiving and its result, are got by the Sun Shine Project and the New Sunshine Project which began in 1974 and afterwards. The introductory track record of the photovoltaics of our country is about 860,000 kW at the end of the 2003 fiscal year. With among these, the photovoltaics introduction promotion enterprise for residences which NEF is undertaking about 595,000-kW solar energy power generation system is introduced. NEF is New Energy Foundation. Moreover, at a NEDO technical development mechanism, they are field test enterprises, such as photovoltaics new technology. And NEDO is New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization. Collection, analysis, etc. of performance data in real loads, such as a new style module, are conducted. Then, we often are given a solar energy by them.

This picture of smiling makes me happy. I can feel pleasant. Smile makes people happy. This book has many pictures of smiling people. One of it is a picture of baby's sparkling smile. When I looked the picture, I smiled, too. The baby's smile of picture is so nice. When I see this picture, I can feel happiness and fun. 

This book is written about laughter over the years, physical comedy, stories, fables and legends, songs, poems and theater, jokes, Mr. been, books magazines and newspaper, comic books, films, animated films, television, and so on. And I though, I always laugh while spending with someone. For example, I am laughing with friends. When I spend a while with friends, we talk about everything a lot. And the talking is so fun and pleasant. So, I am laughing during the day usually. I always talk to my family about everything from I came back home, and my family also talk to me about everything. So, I often hear their talking and their talking is so fun and interesting for me. I like to hear and to talk with them. It is pleasant for me to spend with them and friends.

And I heard a result of interesting study which is written about relationship of laugh and our body. According to the study, we can be increased our immunity power with laughing. I think that we have a close relationship between mind and body. So, we had better think about condition of mind because our mind might be making our condition of body. If you have strongly hatred or an inferiority complex, it might appear as illness. In fact, cause of cancer is not only a gene. So, we must be careful about how to hold of mind. 

In other words, we can be healthy with affirmative mind. The affirmative mind appeal to cells and the positive and constructive mind makes good cells and it makes bad cells change to good cells. So, we had better hold positive, constructive and affirmative mind for health and I think that laughing also link our health.

BR 2-13: GANDHI

I chose this book because Gandhi is so famous as a great person because he have acted for a lot of people but a criticism of him is different with each countries. The reason is that each country has each sense of values. He was a lower but he worked for a lot of people in South of Africa.

It was the young Gandhi. The movie of a life full of disturbance of soul "Mahatma Gandhi that leader" of the independence movement in India was grand. The story chases projection from discrimination against Indian, various, activity and the trace before I die, and reaching it on a magnificent scale from the young times when Gandhi worked as the legal adviser of the business movie. We can picture the real fresh-and-blood figure which confronted huge power of the ruler British Empire because I love 350 million countrymen again because this product does not only praise Gandhi as a saint of merely saving the country and loves the earth of mother country India. Furthermore, through couple love with the wife who supported him publicly and privately, do charm of human being Gandhi with relief; is constituted. It is a history masterpiece worth seeing in the pains, life, masterpiece group such as "Arabic Lawrence" who I follow a trace of the eventfulness and describe a factor such as the history in a magnificent scale well, and controlled an element to be able to enjoy as an entertainment movie more and primary massivity lining up. And he passed away but he left some words. I will tell you about one of it the word. The word is that live while you think that you die in today, learn while you think that you live forever. There are many words of him. If you want to know them, I recommend you to read this book. This book is written about him and his history and age of living him. So, we can know them by reading this book.

This book has expressing of words which we can often use in our life, so to read this book becomes our good studying of English. In fact, many phrases which I learned are so useful and I can use them in real life. I could learn them pleasantly in the class.

This movie, Notting Hill is so famous because this story is appreciated by a lot of people at cinema. My father also have seen this movie when he was a university student. Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant appear in this story as main character. Julia Roberts also is an actress in this story and Hugh Grant is an owner of book store. Content of this story is love story but I do not particularly like love story. When I saw this movie, I felt that Julia Roberts' hair is beautiful and her hair color is so nice.

And a key person who Hugh Grant acts as a main character has some good friends and he often is spending with them and his younger sister. It looks like fun and happy. I like a pleasant atmosphere. So, I liked the scene a little. When I saw the movie, a scene was began which his friend began singing a song, his friend sung 'Wawawawa~♪'. I remember it and I like the scene which the friend was singing because his friend sung it very well and the Wawawawa~♪ was cheerful. I like a cheerful thing. And I have two brothers. It is older brother and younger brother. So, I can see the pleasure which is to spend with brother and I can see the pleasure which is to spend with good friends, too because I also have many good friends and I sometimes spend few days with them. It moment makes us happy and it moment is precious for me.

I have heard the song, so, I knew the song but I did not know what the song was used in this movie. So, when I listened to this song in the movie, I was surprised a little and I felt that this song is matching the last scene. And the last scene has moderate and mild atmosphere. There are some cute children, and they were playing while running in the last scene. And main character also was spending while relaxing on bench. I also liked the scene because I like mild atmosphere, too. This movie has some my favorite atmospheres and scenes. This movie also has some happy scenes.  And there is a scene in the last scene which Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant was walking on red carpet.

And I thought that Julia Roberts was pretty and beautiful though she is not my favorite actress. I felt that she suit many kinds of style.

BR 2-4: THE CINEMA

What a movie did you enjoy recently? I did not see a movie recently. Do you like to appreciate a movie? And what kind of movie do you like? I like to see a movie and I like comedy, classic, cheerful movie, happy movie and so on. Les Misérables is a film which I would like to see most now. The film is so famous story and the film' reputation is so good. And the film has a think which is about a faith and a religion of Christ. I feel that the point is important and good for a lot of people and this film and the point have we think about a faith and religion. Then, I had interest about a film. So, I chose this book. This book is written about back of production. For example, a movie has a view of sea. But the sea is made by stuff of production. I was surprised when I saw a state of making sea by reading the book because they were making a square box and collecting much water in the square box. And, they were using strong wind to make a choppy sea. In this way, a choppy sea was made artificially. It is so nice idea.

And I was surprised a skill of makeup. There are kinds of special make and ordinary make and special make can express an injury which is not to present in real. It looks like a real injury. I felt that they are really professional about makeup and an art. And a stuntman has an important role in movie because stuntman often takes many dangerous scenes instead of actress and actor. They also are professional of stunt. I feel that they are great because they can fight someone. If they have a happening, I think that they can survive and they can save their life by themselves. If I have a happening, I will die easily but I can't die yet because I have a dream and I want to realize the dream. So, I must alive now. If I have a happening, I will call a stuntman instead of me. 

Next, I will tell you about technology of CG. CG is computer graphics and it often is used in this movie, TV, study and so on. There is CG in our life. And we can express a thing which does not present in real life by CG. For example, a dragon appears in a movie and the dragon is made by CG. We often enjoy a movie which is used technology of CG. And there are movies of illustration and those often use technology of CG. And a movie of illustration can have a reality by using technology of CG.

I will tell you about a stuff of art for making a movie. They have so important role because their work is to make a set for a movie. It can't miss for a movie to make a set. And their technology of making a set is amazing and great. We can always enjoy a movie by the grace of them.
