essay 2-03b: My story of learning languages

I’m going to write about my learning languages story. I’m going to write about English and French. I have learned English about for 10 years. Last year, I attended French classes.

When I was an elementary school student, I heard English the first time. I played game on the English music about once a week or once a month. It is called ALT. When I was a junior high school student and high school student, I learned English at the class. It was not games such as elementary school. Now, I also learn English at KGU. In the future, I would like to talk with foreigner smoothly and I want to watch films in English without subtitles.

First, however, I’d like to tell about my future. I have had dreams for a long time. If I marry, I would like to go abroad for honeymoon with my husband. At there, I want to talk with foreigner in languages other them smoothly and want to understand them. One of my dreams is to watch foreign films without subtitle. I like films from other countries very much, so I want to hear themselves voice. I think, almost everyone thought “foreign films have subtitles, so you can hear themselves voice!” It is exactly, but when I read subtitles, I can’t watch pictures. Don’t you think so? That why I want to watch films from other countries without subtitles.

Next, I’m going to write about when I how I first studied English. When I was an elementary school student, I heard English the first time. I played game on the English music about once a week or once a month. It is called “ALT” I don’t remember that days clearly.

When I was a junior high school student and high school student, I learned English at the classes. It was not games such as elementary school. The more I studied English, I like it the more. When I was 15 years old, I visited Australia for two weeks with my friend as a delegate of my junior school. There, I had experienced home stay only myself, take a train only myself, went to shopping with my host family, met an Australian ex-president, and so on. Back Kumamoto, I always remember these special days. That experience made me like English more than before.

I’m going to write about now. Of course I study English almost everyday at KGU. I was surprised at first last year, because teacher is foreigner. I was worried about whether I can understand what they say. However, I think, I could make progress more than before. At eibeigakka KGU, I attend listening class, speaking class, writing class, and reading class. Especially, I’m doing my best for listening and speaking. I can’t listen and speak well, so I would like to listen and speak English better. At the writing class, we have a lot of homework, but it made me better to write English.

When I was freshman, I studied French, but I was not interested in French. However, in addition to English, we must take another foreign language class. French was too difficult for me. I studied hard, but I couldn’t understand French. Now, I think it was good experience for me, because If I hadn’t taken a French class, I didn’t study another foreign language.

All in all, I’m a lucky girl, because If I had not visited Australia, I might not study English now. I think I have a lot of things to do now. I’m going to do my best, and I don’t want to forget my original intention. Then, I believe dreams come true in the future!

Speaking; My Group's Project

Yesterday morning, I talked with my group member Hikaru and Shoko. We talked about what we want to say everyone. Then, we decided what we say on the discussion.

Most of the students think more elevators in KGU are need for us. Especially in the 4th building, the 11building and the 12th building, there are not enough ones. There are many classes we often use, and many students are. In the 4th building has 4 floors and the 12th has 5 floor, nut there are only each one elevator. The 11th building has 7 floors. Some stairs are provided, but it is hard to go up to the 6th and the 7th floor. Most of the students use the elevator to go there classes. And it is uncomfortable for wheelchair user. In those classes, a lot of people have been late with congestions. Before class starting, there are often long lines in front of elevators. Therefore I think we need more elevators.

How many elevators do you think we need? The much answer is 2 in each building. Other is 3 more. It is better to build a few elevators, but it costs a lot to provide an elevator in fact.

By the way, some are sick in it, because of moving and smell. We ask whether they have been sick in it or not, and I found a little students have. I thought there are more students have, so I was surprised. I often feel bad in it. Then, we have an idea to set up escalators. We asked some students whether they want escalators instead of elevators. They want them because escalators can avoid the congestion.

Not only about elevators and escalators, but also we surveyed about tunnel connecting buildings and other ones. We use many buildings every day. We feel a groom on rainy days and hot days. Today, ultra-violence shower and stimulate our skin. We need some thing to avoid them, so we have an idea of tunnel. Almost student agree with the idea. They feel like us; ultra violence is danger. Then we think which is better to building the tunnel on the ground or under the ground. Out of my idea, many students said on the ground. I guess it mar the beauty of the scenery to do it on the ground. However some are afraid of incidents if it is built under the ground. I wound which is better.

Due to this interview, I found we need more elevators, and the tunnel as possible. I hope to get more elevators in KGU. It may give us more comfortable campus life.
