BR1-06 THE STORY OF FOOTBALL


"Today, football matches still arouse incredible passion. Over 240 million people play in teams around the world-that's 1 in every 25 people on the planet."




I read "THE STORY OF FOOTBALL".
I like sports. Especially, baseball and soccer are loved. I think that the origin and the history of soccer were understood only though I am a little because I read this book. I also have understood the meaning that calls soccer football in the United States. I wanted to examine soccer more.

BR1-05 Anna goes to the Zoo


"No zoo for me! The zoo is fun when you are little like Joe, but i have been six times! No zoo for me, thanks".




I read "Anna goes to the Zoo". This book is a story that goes to the zoo by three people (hero Anna, mother, and younger brother). It is said that Anna goes to the zoo as many as six times when she is small, she got tired, and she doesn't want to go after all, she will go though fights against mother. The story that Anna may also smile when Anna went to the corner of a favorite snake, and come to the zoo though it was Anna who was making it to the trivial matter first. I think that the zoo is a happy point even if I become it how old.

Essay3 My hometown

My hometown is Kumamoto Prefecture. I know Kumamoto well because I have been
living in Kumamoto since I was born. There is a lot of natural beauty and many
sightseeing spots in Kumamoto. Talking about natural beauty, there are a lot of
famous mountains in Kumamoto. They are famous as both sightseeing spots
and date spots. I will introduce the mountains in Kumamoto.

First of all, I introduce the most famous, which is Mt. Aso in Kumamoto
Prefecture. Mt. Aso is located in the Aso area of Kumamoto Prefecture. It has
an famous large-scale caldera and a magnificent “Gairinzan”, and it is
familiar to many people as symbol of Kumamoto Prefecture. Mt. Aso is the
highest mountain in Kumamoto and it is 1592 meters tall.

Next, Mt. Kinpo is located in the west of Kumamoto City. It has the caldera
like Mt. Aso. The citizens are fond of Mt. Kinpo as the symbol of Kumamoto
City while Mt. Aso, located in the eastern part of Kumamoto Prefecture, is
known as a symbol of Kumamoto Prefecture. The altitude of Mt. Kinpo is the
second highest in Kumamoto and it is 665 meters.

Next, Mt. Hanaoka is located in the northwest of Kumamoto. Mt. Hanaoka
is known as the brother mountain of Mt Kinpo. A Bussyaritou, which is
called a stupa in English, was constructed on the mountain to make a prayer
of the global peace. Only 132.7 meters, Mt. Hanaoka is not so tall, and
because the night view seen there is beautiful, it was chosen as one of the
best 100 Japanese night views.

In other parts of Kumamoto, there are a lot of sightseeing spots that have
beautiful scenery such as Kikuchi Keikoku, Suizenji park, Amakusa, and
Aso farmlands. Also, there are buildings, and Kumamoto castle is famous. I
think the number of tourists increases, and Kumamoto will become more
famous, because Shinkansen opened.
