The Three Little Pigs

-
"Little pig, Little pig, let me come in," he said.But the third little pig said," By the hair of my chinny, chin, chin, I will not let you in!"
"Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down," said the big, bad wolf.
So he huffed and he puffed, but he could not blow the house down.
The big, bad wolf climbed on top of the house and came down the chimney...
Splash!
And that was the end of the big, bad wolf.
I think a lot of Japanese people have read The Three Little Pigs at least one time in Japanese, so you can learn the difference of how to describe the story between Japanese and English.
Let's enjoy not only this story but also English from this book!

Lesson 3

  Today's lesson is about the effect of native languages. I was surprised that babies get rid of pronunciations which they don't need so we can't speak another languages well. I also think the differences between Japan and other countries in the class. For example, we usually take a lesson so quietly in Japan, but in America, many students tell others their opinions in a class. The culture shock affects learning other languages so we should not only practice to speak other languages but also study other countries' cultures in order to learn other languages.

THE CARIBBEAN FILE

-
'Take a look at these,' said Naylor.   He put two photos in front of Munro. Two men. There were names on the photos. One man was dark, Asian maybe. His name was Sam Tajik. The second man looked European - German or Scandinavian. Jonas Beck.   ' Sam Tajik. Jonas Beck,' said Naylor. 'Dangerous men. Terrorists.'   Naylor and Munro looked at photos which two men were reflected in. The two men are terrorists and they faced each other in the photos. Naylor and Munro felt that something bad would happen, so they looked for the two terrorists. What would happend? Could they found the terrorists?

Lesson 5

-
   Today’s lesson was about the way of studying foreign languages effectively. When teacher said repeating was good way, I remembered the way of studying English in high school. When I was a high school student, I had to take reading test in English class. It was we had to change Japanese into English. Of course it was difficult to do it instantly so I practiced many times at home and I took the test. I practiced it very hard at that time because I didn’t want to take the test again in teachers room if I couldn’t pass the test. However, I think the test was so effective to learn English. I don’t want to take the reading test forever but I should practice translating aloud like this test.
