ESSAY OF THE MONTH

紹介している生徒様のessayも50作品目になりました

The place I'd like to visit is Boston in the U.S.A. because my boyfriend lives there. I want to see him. He went there for his research last June, so almost 10 months have passed since he left.
I went there to see him two times . My first visit was last October. He showed me around town. We stopped at many famous places, like Harvard University , Boston Museum, Boston Symphony Orchestra Symphony Hall. Boston was very beautiful , with many attractions. There were many old apartments made of red bricks. He told me that Boston was the oldest city in the United States and is the sister city of Kyoto. We went out to dinner every night . Boston is famous for clam chowder, oysters and crabs. Everything was very delicious.
My second visit was at the end of last year, from December 28th to January 4th. It was very cold and it snowed. I had jet lag while I stayed in Boston, but we enjoyed shopping and watching the Disney ice skating show, an NBA basketball game and the Boston Pop Orchestra - each day we did something different. They were all good memories.
Now I am planning to go on a third trip to Boston from the end of this April. I have already got the airline ticket. I am looking forward to seeing him soon.


教師より
Good job! Boston is certainly a famous American city. I've always wanted to go see a game at the baseball stadium there. I hope you enjoy your third trip.

2012年最初のessayを紹介させていただきます


"What makes a good person?"
I think a parent's good education for their child would make a good person. A parent has to teach their child about virtues in order not to raise a bad person. A child who learns this won't usually become a bad person. For example, a parent has to teach them what is wrong, what is right and why.
A parent has to bring up their child, but there are various ways of bringing up a child. I found a news report that said a pet helps to bring up a child. A child, by having a pet, can learn the difficulty of care, the importance of love, and the preciousness of life. A child who experiences this will surely become a good person.
A person who knows the distinction between right and wrong by a parent and a pet as a child, will become a good person. I know it's not the only factor of making a person, of course, but the experience of childs' age would affect them very much.

教師より
I agree that our parents play a large role in making us a good or a bad person. Your statement about the influence of pets was very interesting, and I agree with it.

My views on cosmetic surgery

Cosmetic surgery aims to improve the appearance of the human body. The technical progress has been remarkable in recent years. In my view, I can agree with cosmetic surgery for burns, traffic accidents, and the like. And I can agree with removal of armpit hair, arm and leg hair because the treatment is not invasive.
However, I am against cosmetic surgery for purpose of removing wrinkles and raising noses, and breast augmentation, because those surgery injects foreign matters into the body: it seems dangerous and unnecessary for humans.
There is a similar opinion about liposuction for obesity.

教師より
I'm of the same opinion that cosmetic surgery should only be used for certain problems. I always find cosmetic surgery to be a strange practice that can really affect people mentally if it goes wrong, or they become addicted.

さて、それでは11月最初のessayを紹介させていただきます



"Characteristics of a good leader"
To be a good leader, we need good sense, foresight, severity and kindness.
The leader of a soccer team said, "I always keep calm and thinking about how to cope in bad conditions." I understand it.
Many people have their own leaders, and if we have good leaders, our team or company improves.
I know a good taxi company. All drivers are smiling and polite, so I want to use this taxi company.
Good leadership can lead to good staff.

教師より
Leadership involves balancing severity and kindness. We sometimes call this the "carrot and stick". For example, if you want a hourse to move sometime you can encourage it with a carrot but sometime you have to hit it with a stick.
However, recently in parenting and teaching there is a tendency to use only the carrots. Maybe it can cause children to be spoled.

"A person from the past I'd like to meet"
A person from the past I'd like to meet is Mr. Alexander Fleming, who discovered the first antibiotic that is Penicillin.
It is very famous that he discovered the antibiotic by chance. He just found that mould on bacteria made a certain barrier around it. I thought that if I were him, I would have missed the barrier. But it was his very big effort that he realized that the barrier made by the mould had an activity against the bacteria. Then this natural antibiotic was named Penicillin, which is very famous nowadays as the first antibiotic in the world.
I was taught that such a discovery is called serendipity when I was in university. Serendipity is very important when we search for the source of medicine.
If I could meet Fleming, I would like to ask him how he could notice that mould has antibiotic activity. I suppose he must have had some special point of view which other people don't have.
I also want to show him the current world, and how antibiotics help us. These days, we can't live without antibiotics. Discovery of antibiotics is one of the main reasons that human beings can live a long life.

教師より
Most people would say that they would like to meet a famous actor or singer, so it was refreshing to read your essay. I'm familiar with Penicillin, but I did not know the story behind its discovery. As I told you in class, I'm allergic to Penicillin so I probably wouldn't be best friends with Alexander Fleming.
Thanks for sharing!
