Movie review 1 Shrek

When I was a little child, I often read some children’s stories. Though I am not able to remember the content of books that I read at that time perfectly, I am able to explain what I think that it is the most important for us to you. “Shrek” is also a work that tells us what we should do. Now, I am going to introduce three characters that I am interested in and their personalities to you.

First of all, I am going to talk about “Shrek”. He is a main character and his action has a great influence on the other characters in this movie. He is usually selfish, so he sometimes makes the other characters a little depressed. However, he always stands up to some difficulties when he and his friends face them.

Second, I am going to talk about “Donkey”. He is the most active character in this movie. He is what is called the part to cheer everyone up. He is talkative and very noisy, but he helps Shrek fight when they face some difficulties.

Third, I am going to talk about “Princess Fiona”. She looks like a delicate woman, but she is able to fight very well. In addition, she is very tough mentally. I think that she and Shrek have the same personality.

Though a lot of characters appear in this movie, Shrek, Donkey, and Princess Fiona have important roles. They tell us the importance of believing friends. I think that this movie is also a work that shows the way to help friends, so we had better watch this on DVD again and again. (272 words / 8093 words)

Unstoppable!!



I think that one of the most notable plays in watching a lot of soccer games is dribbling. When I was a pupil, I belonged to a soccer club. However, I did not understand how I played it well, so I had thought about only two things. One was how to score a lot. When I had played it at that time, I had thought that I wanted to do it and help my team. The other was how to dribble well. Of course, to do it helps a lot of soccer players to score. However, a few players can surprise opponents and a lot of fans by doing it.
Before I was born, a famous player had surprised a lot of soccer fans in the world. He is Maradona. He was one of the greatest players in the world, but he does not play soccer now, so I do not understand how great he was. Today, a young player makes me and a lot of soccer fans very excited. He is Messi. As long as I know, he and Maradona are similar very much. Though I explained him to you before on this blog, I would like you to watch this movie. (203 words / 7821 words)

Book review 2-11

There is no one who does not make a mistake in this world. However, I thought that we sometimes need luck in order to live happily after I read a book. The name of the book is "The Big Bag Mistake". So, I am going to introduce the story to you.

Gisela, who had lived in an apartment in Rio de Janeiro, was going home to the place from London. She met a man when she took the airplane. The name of the man was Ricardo. He was a student and had lived in Rio de Janeiro, too. In the airplane, he dropped his bag on Gisela when she was reading her book. After that, he went on talking to her for a while when he was sitting on the next seat to her. As a result, his action in the airplane made her annoyed. After they got off from it, Gisela took the bag that was regarded as hers by her. However, she really took it for hers. In addition, she thought that she would like to leave the place, so she ran from it. So, Ricardo was not able to tell her the fact that it was his bag. After that, Gisela took a bus in order to go home. While she was sleeping in the bus, her bag was stolen by a thief. Though she went after him, she was not able to catch him. However, the bag that he stole was Ricardo's and Ricardo explained it to Gisela. Finally, they smiled.

Of course, we need a lot of luck. However, I think that we need kind people, too. Anyway, I would like you to read this book as soon as you can. (286 words)

The close contest for our League

Today, the rest of the 33rd games in J League were played. Though a lot of teams had played very well to be the winner in this league, the teams that may be able to do it were decided because of the results of today's games. They are 3 teams. First, the team that gets 60 winning points is Kashima Antlers. Kashima Antlers got the 2007 J League title last year, and they are also on the 1st place now. This team has a lot of players who have great techniques and know how to win a game. Second, the team that gets 58 winning points is Nagoya Grampus. Nagoya Grampus was on the 11th place last year, but they are on the 2nd place now. Third, the team that gets 57 winning points is Kawasaki Frontale. Kawasaki Frontale was on the 5th place last year, but they are on the 3rd place now. I would like Nagoya Grampus to get the 2008 J League title, but Kashima Antlers has the advantage. Anyway, I am looking forward to watching the last games. (182 words / 7618 words)

Book review 2-10

Though I am not good at running, I know that I have to do it for my health. However, I found that I had to think what I could do for others after I read a book. The name of the book is "THE LONG ROAD". So, I am going to introduce the story to you.

In the old days, there was a man who was a strong athlete. His name is Terry Fox. He had had a good life, but it was found that he had cancer in his right Leg in 1977. Then, he was operated in the hospital. Therefore, he had an artificial leg. After he went back home, he decided that he would run across Canada. It was because he thought that he wanted to collect a lot of money so as to help the children who had cancer to be able to have their better life. His run was a very long road from St. John's to Port Renfrew. The distance was 5,300 miles. The long run was called the "Marathon of Hope" by Terry. He began to run on April 12, 1980. Doug Alward, who is his friend, ran with him as his driver. Terry went on running through the help of a lot of people though he had some problems. And he was able to get a lot of money through his run. However, he stopped doing it because he had a bad pain in his lungs. Though he was not able to finish his run, he got $ 1,400,000 for helping sick children. In addition, Canadians and Americans gave $10,000,000 to him, and he got the country's numbers one award. After that, he died on June 28, 1981 because he had had cancer again. Thanks to his will, the marathons that are named "Terry Fox Run" are held around the world every year.

I think that most of the people in the world are able to think what they should do for others, but only a few people can act by themselves. We should think what the difference is. Anyway, I hope that you will read this book. (356 words / 7436 words)

I was disappointed



Today, I watched a soccer game on TV. It was the game between Gamba Osaka and Kawasaki Frontale in J League. To tell the truth, some players were not able to take part in this game because they had been hurt. Especially, Yasuhito Endo and Takahiro Futagawa are very important players of all players of Gamba Osaka. So, I thought that it was very difficult for Gamba to win against Frontale. Endo and Futagawa are what we call "passer". Gamba is a team that makes up a game by passing a ball with care. When they can not take part in games, Gamba always puts up bad fights. Regrettably, what I had thought became a reality. Gamba lost the game by no goal to four. Kawasaki Frontale is one of the best teams in J League, but Gamba did not play well. So, I think that I would like all players of Gamba to fight harder. (156 words / 7080 words)

Book review 2-9

I am not the age of 20, so I am not able to drink now. However, I am looking forward to it because I read a book about the place to drink. The name of this book is "The Blue Cat Club". So, I am going to introduce the story to you.

One day, James and Chantal, who live in France, found a club. The club is named "the Blue Cat Club". The people who visit the place are able to eat, drink, and dance. It has a sign that is written a big cat, a man, and a phrase. The phrase is "Cabaret MERLIN MAN of MAGIC". Chantal and James arrived there and went into at once. Then, they sat at the table. James asked a waiter to give a tomato juice to him. When the music stopped suddenly, a man appeared in order to start the cabaret. His name is Merlin. He is the Man of Magic and very friendly. First, the friendly magician stood in front of a table that a man and a woman had sat at. Then, he showed his magic to the people in the place by using them. It made the people around them laugh. After that, he also showed another magic. He got a necklace from Chantal, and got a watch and a wallet from James so as not to notice them. Most of the people who were looking at Merlin's magic were excited, but James did not like his action. So, he surprised Merlin by making use of another magic of Merlin. Thanks to the James's action, the atmosphere in this club changed after the magician left.

When most of the people drink, they have to enjoy doing it without annoying the other people. I think that it is necessary for us to behave properly. Anyway, I want you to read this book. (312 words / 6924 words)
