Book review 1-2

I read this book yesterday. This book is named "SCOTLAND". This explains to us about the history of Scotland, different languages, the situation of this country, climate, buildings, festivals, the place for sightseeing, islands, eating, drinking, and so on. Especially, I was surprised at the fact that the men who invented the first telephone or television were born in Scotland. I think that it is interesting for me to know the difference between Scotland and the other country of the U.K. Also, I think that England is the most famous country of 4 areas of U.K., but Scotland has a lot of traditional culture the same quality as Japan does.

essay 3 (My favorite animal)

I think that some of animals make us relax and they sometimes encourage us to live cheerfully. Especially, the people who have animal as a pet may know why I have the idea. In my case, I think that dogs are the best of all the animals. Basically, I like cats, birds, monkeys, and fishes. However, I regard dog as the best animal if they live with us. I have three reasons why I think that.

First, I think that dogs are always cute. For example, when I walk with a dog on holiday morning or afternoon, it walks with I walking quickly. The movement of it looks like a toy, so the faster it walks, the cuter it looks. Also, when it eats some food, it is only absorbed in eating them. I think that the situation is very heartwarming, so that makes me smile and please. A lot of movements that dogs act without intention are very attractive.

Second, I think that dogs are very clever. For example, when a suspicious character breaks into the house that a family has a dog, it barks as noisy as possible. Generally speaking, it is said that a dog tells us how dangerous the situation is.

Third, I think that dogs are very important in our daily life. For example, some of dogs help the people with visual impairment to live alone. I think that it is necessary that they spend a lot of times acting freely. So, the ability of dogs should be valued widely.

My grandparents of my mother used to have a dog. It was called “John”. I had cherished it, but it died of disease. I think that we should love dogs and we have to take care of them until they dies. Therefore, I think that I like dogs very much. (305 words)
