LIZZIE'S Hideen Message

"Every day she went to the farmer's house, where she made beautiful clothes
for the farmer's daughters.

When Beth was 15 years old, she heard about grandmother's great-grandmother, Lizzie.When Lizzie was15 years old, she worked hard because she was a slave. Lizzie's family was owned by a farmer in Kentucky. They had to work for the farmer, and do what he ordered them to do. Lizzie's father and old brother worked in the fields picking cotton, and her mother and younger brother worked in the vegetable garden. Lizzie worked in the farmer's house. The farmer didn't like Lizzie's older brother and gave him the hardest job. Many slaves tried to run away to the free states but most were captured by slave catchers or tracking dogs. However, some slaves found clever ways to escape. Lizzie was clever and she was a seamstress. Lizzie made a quilt. Bath's grandmother explained that the quilt was really a map. Beth stared at Lizzie's quilt. She imagined she was an escaping slave, and tried saying each pattern out loud. The message was too hard to read. Grandmother explained the message. So, Beth could read the message.
This story is serious. But I like it. I didn't know about slave after I read this book. This story nonfiction but this story made me about slaves. I thought interesting that there was message in the quilt. This illustrations are colorful. I like this book. (235)

The second episode of my podcast script

Welcome to the second episode of my podcast. I watched the move; Ooku. So, I'll introduce it. This story is no common Ooku. Ooku is female story but this movie is male story. In other words, this movie is reversing a male and female. In this movie, A woman is a shogun, Ietugu Tokugawa. Its reason for play an active party is a plague had broken out and population of man decreased sharply as a result of it. There are diverse troubles in man's Ooku. But those have solved and the Edo is changing by the shogun.

I thought this story is novelty and interesting. A woman is a shogun and a woman stand first in Edo. I thought this is described to Japan today. Today the world, woman has have a authority. This movie is described to that the word well.(141)

Bruno's Tea

I cycled out into the sun, wishing I could drive - it would be so much
quicker to make deliveries.

Handing Chin a big plastic bag, his dad said "here's the shopping for Mr. Green." Dad owned a milk bar, and sometimes Chin helped out after school with deliveries. Dad said it was the home deliveries that kept us in business and the tea Dad imported from Fuzhou. Chin loaded up his bicycle with Mr. Green's shopping. His order always included three packets of Dad's tea. Chin stopped outside Mr. Green's house, looking for Bruno, Mr. Green's dog. Chin knocked on Mr. Green's door. But there was no reply. He stepped into Mr. Green's hall. He looked for Mr. Green. But Mr. Green was not. He stopped outside the garage. He heard Bruno's whimper. Bruno came up to me and pulled on his shorts. Chin could see a shoe near the front of one of the cars. Mr. Green opened his eyes and sat up. He told Chin he'd been working on one of his car, When he tripped and hurt his ankle. Then, he could hardly move. Chin helped Mr. Green inside so that he could phone Mr. Green's sister to take him to the doctor. Mr. Green was so grateful.
This story is short. So, it is easy to read. If I was he , I could not to help Mr. Green. Because I think that I left home when there is no reply. But Chin looked for Mr. Green, I think that Chin has courage. (256)

This book is King's story. His name was King Midas, he was a good king. He much loved by his people, but he had one downfall. One day, King Midas met a man. He was poor. Then, King Midas took pity on the man and took him back to the palace. At the end of the ten days, King Midas gave the man some money and sent him on his way. Watching over this act of kindness was Dionysus. He is God. He appeared before King Midas and said, "Your act of kindness will be rewarded. I grant you one wish." King Midas said "I want everything I touch to turn to gold." Dionysus granted King Midas his wish. King Midas got new power. He tried out it. Many things such as a rock and a flower turned to gold. He was glad. At dinner time, as he picked up a chicken leg, it turned to gold. He could not eat it. He called for his daughter and he said, "Please feed me or I will starve." The king's daughter put a fig in his mouth. As he ate it, he touched his daughter's hand. She turned to gold. King Midas was very sad. Then, he called out to Dionysus.

In this country, woman is stronger than man. Besides, 5 flowers express the capitals and other cities.

First, we recommend you to go to the flower field. The field is so big and full of cosmos, rose, and tulip. Even if you are not interested in flowers, you would be fascinated by beauty of flowers. In flower field, there are many kinds of animals. We let animals run loose. In Freedonia, animals are all white. Elephants, cats, tigers, zebras monkeys and so on. White is a queen Rose’s lucky color. White makes animals prettier than normal animals.
In sight seeing spots, chocolate fountain is the best spot which tourists like especially women. It stands on capital, Berry’s park naturally. This is same as big as ordinary water fountain. Tourists are surprised at it and excited at dream world. Of course, chocolates are free! In Freedonia, chocolates are main drink. When Freedonian wake up, they drink a cup of chocolate. When Freedonian come back from work, they drink a cup of chocolate. You should bring some fruits or marshmallow.

First time

I went to school for a medical examination yesterday.
Then, I went to downtown with my friend.
We bought shoes and socks. Since we were tired, we had a break at Macdonald.
For a short time, we had a dinner at the Italian tomato. I ate pasta and my friend ate pizza.
Next, we went to Mt. Hanaoka. This night scene is beautiful!
Yesterday was very pleasant. (67)
