Exciting performance group.
I have been (Perfect tense. I didn't use past tense because that would mean you now stopped watching it) watching (continuous) Umebou's dance video on youtube since last week.
They often dance to J-pop music.
An exciting story is always in their performance.
They are (plural) common stories but they express it well in dance.
That's their originality.
I want to perform with them someday.0 votedMay 11, 20171Self-introduction
Hi, my name is Isato. I'm 20 years old.
One of my hobbies is playing various instruments, including the guitar<font style="background-color: yellow;">, </font>the keyboard<font style="background-color: yellow;">, </font>the kajon and so on. I find music very interesting and I want to talk with people who speak English. Let's talk about music together!0 votedNovember 19, 20163- Commission has a lot of meanings. Some of these are similar because of the root word 'commit'. For example: Commission: A very formal word, not used much. A duty that a person or group is given. Often an authority gives this duty without the choice of the person receiving it. Examples: - a soldier's orders. - In christian theology "The great commission" is the final job that Jesus gave his followers" - a special committee appointed by a government to investigate something. - Being given such a duty is called being commissioned. A commitment is normally a more voluntary duty. E.g. "I have commitments to work, commitments to my wife and children." "When we got married, I made a commitment to my wife to care for her" "Our company has made a commitment to our customers to providing good service." Other definitions are totally different, for example commission of a crime. Some senses of commitment imply exclusivity: Commitment to my wife Which TV will I buy? I must commit to one (make a commitment).0 votedNovember 10, 20160
My Friday training.
We like running and we have training twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday. But on Tuesday we had a lesson about how to rescue an injured person in a (1) mountainous area. So we decided to cancel going out on Friday so we could try running up the hill. It was snowy (2) and quite warm that day. I have never done running in the cold time of year. At first I doubted if my shoes would stay dry, if I would be able to run over deep snow, if I would slide with my summer sneakers. But running doesn’t come easy for me,(3) so to make progress (4) I need to train when I have free time. We began at 11:00 a.m. We started at the same time. After just 10 minutes my friend fell behind me. He often complained about being/that he was out of breath. Sometimes I paused to turn around to look what was happening with him. I ran up over stones, snow and ice and was on top in 40 minutes. It was cool after hard running, being on the top of a covered white blanket mountain without anyone else. My friend came to the top soon. My partner was on the top a little bit later. After having a rest we walked down. I think physical exercise especially running are very needed for everyone because they make people more healthy (2). If we do training we will be able to become real skyrunners.(1) Use "a mountainous area" here to harmonise with "rescue an injured person". It is also possible to use the plural because you may do it more than one time "rescue injured people in mountainous areas".
(2) Adjective form.
(3) "doesn’t come easy for me". This is a really good and useful phrase! Good work.
(4) "make progress" is an idiom.
