#25 Can Japanese overcome its current economic difficulties?
2010.07.19 Monday
こんにちは！
やっと梅雨が明けたと思ったらいきなり真夏のような暑さ
ですね。。
これからは暑さとの戦いですが、夏を楽しみたいですね★
さて、今日のessayは
"Can Japanese overcome its current economic difficulties?"
です。やっと不況のどん底から回復したように思える日本経済
ですが、まだまだ厳しい状況が続いています。
その中で、このtopicは誰にとっても"?"かもしれません。
それでは、生徒様のessayを紹介したいと思います！
Although this is just my opinion,
Japan would be able to overcome the current great recession in one or two years.
Now, Japanese are taking into account the exportation of cutting-edge technologies: infrastructure such as high-speed rail, digital TV broadcast systems, nuclear electricity plants, and so on.
There are also many new inventions in the pipe line.
If we could take the initiative, these technologies would be innovations that substitute as alternative sources of revenue.
On the other hand, Japan has serious financial and welfare problems. And also, we need proper control over the huge dismissal rate, and the low birth rate.
教師より
Japan has focussed on exports as a major source of revenue since the end of the war but now, with the Chinese surge into international markets, Japan needs to innovate. Even if Japan can emerge from recession, investment in the future of the nation will be vital to ensure it doesn't slip back into another deep downturn.

#24 Asian views on Europe
2010.07.03 Saturday
こんにちは！
相変わらず蒸し暑い日が続いていますね。
さて、今日紹介させていただくessayは
"Asian views on Europe"です
WILLでは、たくさんのtopicsが用意されていますが
大きく"social"と"private"に分けられています
今日のtopicは"social"に分類されます
少し堅苦しいと思われるかもしれませんが
「日常会話だけでなく、日本・世界の社会
についても関心を持って話せる！」
というのがWILLの生徒の方々の特徴でもあります
ぜひ、読んでみてください！
Japan is an Asian country. That's why I am Japanese, and besides, I am Asian. The view on Europe depends on the country. Many Asian countries used to be European colonies. That's why many Asians might have a bad image of Europe. On the other hand, Japan wasn't a European colony. Japan modernized itself because of not being a European colony. At that time Japan modeled itself upon Europe: politics, low, industry, you name it. Since then, Japan long to go to Europe. Almost all Japanese want to go to Europe someday.
Japanese have good knowledge of the United States. On the other hand, we have a poor knowledge of Europe. TV news often reports on the United States. Japanese have a tendency to lean to an American sense of values and think they are right, but sometimes they are wrong in Europe. Europe is a place Japanese long to go and a place far away.
教師より
Thanks for your essay, it was very interesting to read about how Asia perceives Europe. Europeans views Asia as a mysterious place and many people have little knowledge of the culture and customs. Recently, many people have become interested in Japanese, Chinese, and South East Asian culture and more Westerners are coming to Asia as a result.
#23 What makes a successful language learner
2010.06.13 Sunday
こんにちは！
ついに広島にも梅雨が到来しました
例年よりも少し梅雨明けが遅いそうで、しばらくは
ジメジメした日が続きそうです
さて、今日のtopicは
"What makes a successful language learner"です
English learnerである私達にとって、簡単そうで
難しいtopicですよね
では、今日もWILLの生徒様のessayを紹介します
The following is only my impression.
Firstly, the learner should use that language everyday. She can read foreign magazines on her way to the office.She may hear foreign language conversation programs on the radio.
Anyway, the important thing is making an opportunity to use the language everyday to be familiar with it.
The second necessary point is to change of our frame of mind which has the tendency to refrain from expressing personal opinions. Because mostly foreign languages have character of assertion of one's own opinion.
To overcome it, making attention for current topics is useful.
However, I'm not sure if these points are actually effective or not, because I was not a good language learner.
教師より
Very good essay, you have made some excellent points. It is really difficult for most language learners to use their foreign language everyday. This is extremely important in developing one's ability.
Because language is strongly bound to culture it is crucial to change one's frame of mind in order to start to understand the language and culture better. In English giving your opinion, even if it is different from others', is part of our culture - quite different to Japan!
Very well done.

#22 My favorite possessions
2010.05.30 Sunday
こんにちは！
今日のessayは"My favorite possession"です
私は始めてこのtopicを見た時、当時の教師に
"What does it mean?"と質問したのを覚えています
その時の教師の答えは"Things you can't live without"
でした。
essayを書くことは、ただ英語の“勉強”ではなく
新たな言葉、言い回しとの“出会い”だから
楽しめるんですよね♪
それでは、essayを紹介します
My favorite possessions are all of family photo albums.
We have many albums, and they show not only my history, but also my family's history.
I sometimes enjoy looking at the albums with my family, and we get into animated conversation when it comes to our
childhoods. I love to spend time looking at photos with my family.
So if I could bring only one piece of luggage, with no wavering, I'd certainly bring our albums.
I will keep on making more memories, and when I have some children, I will also make family albums like the ones my parents have made.
教師より
These days, with digital cameras, people can do many
interesting and creative things with their family photos. And a few years ago, one of my sisters had our old 8mm home movies transferred to DVD.

#21 Recent trend I dislike
2010.05.23 Sunday
お久しぶりです！
ブログの更新がかなり遅れてしまいました
これからもどんどん更新していきますので
お楽しみに♪
さて、今日のtopic は"Recent trend I dislike"です
今日紹介するessayで指摘されている物は
“使い捨てのもの”です
私は正直ドキリとしてしまいました
便利なのでついつい使ってしまいますよね…
これから見直していきたいと思います!!
I sometimes feel that the number of disposable items has increased recently, and new disposable products are appearing one after another especially cleaning utensils which are being changed to disposable type. I don't like this trend. There are many kinds of disposable products, like ballpoint pens, towels, toothbrushes, paper cups, plates, cameras and many others. There are almost too many to mention.
Of course, it is true that they are convenient and clean because after we used them, the only thing we have to do is throw them away.
But it's clear that they are not environmentally friendly products. And more importantly, this trend shows people do not care about the environment.
教師から
I don't like the idea of disposable cleaning utensils either, but I have to admit that I sometimes use them. I think that it's too bad that so many disposable chopsticks are used in Japan.
