Pigeons Make Their Nests on The Roof of My House

Recently, pigeons make their nests on the roof of my house. We make solar energy with solar panels which are on the roof. Pigeons make their nests under the solar panels. It may be a comfortable place for pigeons, but that is trouble for us. If there are nests on there, under the solar panels is stopped up with dead leaves. We ask neighbor who is a carpenter to remove the nests. I feel sorry for pigeons to remove their house. However, if we don't  do this, we will be in trouble.

BR 1-08: The Statue of Liberty


“Today, more than one hundred years later, the Statue of Liberty still welcomes people to America.”

I think almost people in this world know the Statue of Liberty. However, I didn’t know the history of it. This book tells you how the Statue of Liberty was made. I could learn many things, and I was surprised about the Statue of Liberty. You can’t climb the Statue of Liberty now, but you could climb it in the old days. I don’t know you can enter in the Statue of Liberty, but you can see the look of her inside in this book.

BR 1-07: WAKE UP, SUN!


“After all, they knew she was the only one who could wake up the sun!”

You can learn the cries of animals from this book. Do you know how pigs cry in English? I was surprised to know the cry of pigs. Cries of animals in English are different from cries of animals in Japanese. For example, chickens cry “Kokekokko!” in Japanese, but chickens cry “Cluck! Cluck!” in English in this book. Also, illustrations in this book are cute. Especially, I like illustrations of owl in this book. This story and illustrations will make your heart warm.

Sweet Melon

Today, I ate this melon. That was very sweet. My neighbor gave us the melon, so I appreciate her. That melon had much fruit juice, so I drank the fruit juice at the end. That was very delicious and sweet. I want to eat them again.

I Had a Examination on Thursday.

On Thursday, I had a examination. I have two classes on Thursday. Last week, I thought I had to take two examinations on Thursday. I have Listening class and Outline of English. I thought I can solve the listening examination, so I studied about outline of English. I studied the outline of English for three days. I could understand the outline of English history. I studied listening a day ago when I took the listening examination. The outline of English is first class on Thursday. I was little nervous whether I can do my best for the test or not. The teacher started class, and examination didn't started. I was wondering. Then, I asked my friend. The friend said there is no test on the day. I was very sad. Also, there was a test in listening class. I could answer almost questions, but I am worry the answers are correct. Next week, there is a test of outline of English. I will do my best for the test. I have to make sure of my schedule.
