Commercial Reduction

Nowadays, we watch many sponsor massages in the TV program for toddles. These sponsor massages introduce high-fat food. According to Susan Conner’s study, high-fat foods account for 82 percent of sponsor on PBS, and 36 percent on Disney’s show for toddles. Besides, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission found child watches two to four hours of television per day. It is same that the child watch about toddles and these high-fat food ads can become the cause of childhood obesity. And then, the ads are said violated viewers’ trust. Therefore, Lea Sloan, PBS spokeswoman, decided to assign a limit that the messages don’t run longer than two minutes, 17 seconds per hour. Besides, the ads can’t do price information, product comparisons, and so on. Meanwhile, other companies also reduced food ads.

I read the book whose tilt was "Fly Away Home". I chose this book because the book cover was so beautiful picture. This was a story of a girl, Amy, and her geese.

Amy was a girl. She lost her mother, and she had to leave her hometown and live with only her father. She really liked her mother, but she wasn't anymore. She was really sad. She didn't like her father because he was a kind of crazy. He tried to fly!!

One day, she found sixteen eaggs of geese. However, there is no adult geese around them. She could understood they lost their parent. She felt sympathy them. She brought the eggs to her home, and started to warm them. After a few days later, the geese were born. She liked them. When she tried to make their nest, her father found what she was doing, but he didn't stpo it. He also liked geese. they started raise them. The geese Amy was their mother, so they always followed Amy.

However, winter would come soon. The geese had to leave the place, but they coldn't because Amy would not leave. They couldn't live the cold place, so Amy dcided to train them to fly. She was sad because she had to separate her geeses. However, she understood the situation. At first, her father tried to make the geeses follow him, but he was not their mother. They follow only Amy. Therefore, Amy had to ride on Aeroplane, made by her father. Then she flew by it, the geeses follow her by flying!! One of the gesses had a problem with his legs, but he practiced with Amy, and he could fly well. After some training, Amy took them to the south. The gesses followed their mother.

It was so tearful story. The relationships between humans and geeses were so wonderful. It might be the movis, so I want to watch it. It may show beautiful view. I can imagine the view only by reading. I want to see it on my own eyes.

O. Henry ~ BR 2-17~

I read the famous book, "O. Henry Three Short Stories". I love this book because it is easy to read and there are three heart warming stories. I love the first one the best. It was the story of the Christmas.

There are a couple in the town. Their name were Jim and Dera. They are so poor, but they are happy. However, the Christmas would come soon. Dera wanted to give something great to Jim, but she had not enough money. She has only her long beatiful hair. She charished her hair, but her husband, Jim, was the most important in her life, so she decided to sell her hair. After she cut her hair she felt sad, but she felt proud. She could bought clock chain. Jim had good watch, and she thought it was much with the watch.

She was happy when she went home because she could buy great present. She cooked dinner, it is more gorgeous a little bit than usual. Then, her husband came home. When he looked Dera, he was so surprised because Dera's hair was so short. She explained her situation and gave the present to him. Jim understood everything and laughed. He received the chain from her, but he couldn't put it on to his watch. He didn't have it because he sold it in order to but the present to Dera. He gave her comb!! He liked her long hair. That mean they sold their important things and bought the presents for the others each other. They felt so happy.

It was so great story isn't it? I felt consideration of others is so important. We couldn't lose our important things so easily for others. However, if I can meet the person who I want to do like Dera and Jim, it would be so happy.

David and The Giant ~BR2-15~

I read the book whose title was "David and The Giant".

There is a one boy whose name was David in the vilige. He had brabe, he had never afraided of anything. He lived with his father, his older brother, and him. His father had many sheeps. David often played with sheeps. He is also cherished by the God. The God always looked after him.

One day, his brother had to go to fight because David countrty started war with next country. David was too young to fight them, so he could stay at home. One day, he was asked to take some foods to his brother. When he arrived his brother's place, enemy would come soon. There was a Giant at the enemy side. David's country soldiers had to fight with him only one person. Of course no one wanted to fight them. However, David named to fight with the Giant. He was said by the king to fight with a big soard, but he said he didn't need it. He used only his sling, and won!! The enemy ran away. And then, people who live in David country live happily.

I think, the big is not always good. Sometimes, to be big has good point, for example, basketball, valleyball, and soon. However, we can't say the small is not good at doing something. Even if they are small, we can do many things, for examle, move puickly, entering the narrow spaces, and so on. We can use the skill in the various situations. Therefore the story told me like that, I think.

The Glenger Bread Boy ~ BR2-13~

I read the book whose title was "The Glenger Bread Boy". It was easy book, but I could enjoy it. I think the bisket bot situation.

There were old couple in the country. They didn't have any children, but they really wanted. One day, the old lady made a boy made by bisket. It was small, but cute boy. When she bake it and take it out from the oven, the boy starts to move!! The old woman tried to hold him, but the boy ran away!! She was very shocked, and ran after him. She said to him "Stop, stop!", but he didn't. People who listen to the old woman followed the bisket boy. He keep running because he was afraid. After that, everyone gave up and the boy can relieved.

One fox found the boy. The fox thought the bisket boy looked so delicious! He wanted to eat him, but the fox didn't it soon. He was so clever. At first, he made the boy believed. The boy was happy, because he was alone. He believed the fox, and finally, he was eaten by the fox.

It seems to sound sad story. Why the boy believed the fox? Maybe he was sad. He thought he was run after by many people. He was really afraid of them. The fox was first animal that was kind to the boy. It made him so happy. I thought he was so pure. It is important to have pure heart. Sometime, we are doubted, but I want to try to believe people as possible as I can.

Learning Many Things

Today, a computer is nessesary for our life. There are computers everwhere we go. Therefor we have to know how to use it and use it well. I also use it everyday in the various ways because it is so useful. Besides I learn with the computer at my school. I will explain about my way to use computer.

First, I often use it for my studies. When I write a report, I use Microsoft Word. I have many report every weekend, so I have to it as early as possible. Typing in the computer is faster than when I write on my hands. What's more, I can correct my writing easily if I use the computer. In the case of hand writing, I have to erase my sentences and I have to write same things again. It is waste of time. I can say writing reports with Word is efficient. I use the computer not only when I write reports. I make my blog. It is one of my school assignments in order to improve my writing English skill. Now, I can write English without hesitation. Therefore, I want to say I use the computer for my studies. I learned how to use well Word, and make blog. I mean I can study effectively with using the computer.

Second, I use it for research. I have to research in order to write a good reports. I use the Internet when I research somethings. It is so useful that I research what I don't know. I can get many information with it easily and the information will be much enough to write a report. This is the reason why I use the Internet when I research somethings. However, there are too much information. Some of them is not true. We have to be careful to get information with the Internet. It is not good for you that you use the information without knowing whether it is true or not. You have to judge you can believe it or not. Therefor I can say, the Internet is so useful to get information what you don't know, but you have to judge whether you can say that is true, or not.

Third, I use it for my entertainments. I like to use Facebook. Do you know Facebook? It is social network service site made in America. It is used also in Japan since May, 2008. I can connect with the people who live in other countries. I have many friends such as American, Canadian, British, Sweden, and so on, on the Facebook. I can chat with them, send e-mail join the community. I often upload my photos and share with them. I communicate with many people in English, so it is good training for me. I can learn English with enjoying when I use Facebook with computer.

Fourth, there are many useful applications in the computer. I can practice my typing with Justhome, it is one of software. The practice is a kind of game, so I am not tired of it. I use it and improve my typing speed. After I am used to typing in English, I often use Power Words. It is the game to increase my vocabulary. I is separated by level, so I can start appropriate level. I can check the words that I couldn't answer because records are input in the computer. I can memorised the words smoothly. I mean I can train my typing and vocabulary skill with computer.

Finally, I often spend my free time with computer. I look for interesting video by You-Tube, listen to music, and so on. Sometimes, I learn how to use Excel with the computer because it is basic tool in the computer. I will use it in the future.

You have already know, the computer is so useful. It is connected with our daily life. We have to know how to use it, and know good way to use. It is sometime difficult to use, but there are many good points to learn with the comoputer. Using the computer, we can work effectively, get many informations, enjoy keping touch with oversea's friends, practice typing, and learn about basic skill about computer. It is nessesary to be able to use computer in the future, so it is good idea to be used to using the computer since now. We can learn many things through the computer. For this reason, I learn with the computer.

It was not harder than I thought. After that, I went Tutaya and some flower shops. I thought I tried to walk around more because I seldom to go there. Therefore I walked around, but after a minutes, I didn't know where I was. Yes, I lost my way!! I was really confused, but I couldn't return because I didn't remember where I came from. I tried to keep walking, and I found the park I know!! Then, I could go back to the bus stop.

Christmas will come soon

Christmas will come soon, you know!! Will you do something special for the day? I will spend with my friends. Anyway, you can see Christmas color everywhere. Yes, they are red, green, and white. I wonder why are they known as Christmas color?

First, Chrismas Red is color of apples. Christmas is Christ's birthday. When Christ was born, many apples ripened. That is the reason why red is one of Christmas color. Holly fruits is also origin of Christmas Red. Second, Christmas Green is color of the fir tree. Fir tree is regarded as tree of hope and has been cherished by people for a long time. It means color of the fir tree is special color for the people. Finally, Christmas White is color of snow. Of course everyone know it!!

However, Christmas color is not only three. We musn't forget one more clor, gold!! Everyone decolate a gold star on the top of the tree, right? That's why gold is also important color for the ancient people. Gold is the color of star , "Betsurehem", that appeared when Christ was born. The star is simble of nobleness, importance, and so on.

Therefore, I have to correct my saying. Christmas colors are red, green, white, and gold!! I could know about Christms more than before. And, I made the Christmas Arrengement. Of course, I used Chistmas colors!
