Personal opinion about university Today's lesson's topic was about university in my country. These days, there are many universities and almost all of high school students attend university in Japan. It means the range of level of knowledge is getting wider. I think admission test for university should be kind of gate to measure the level of knowledge. So, it will be important to keep the minimum level of admission. It is a little bit difficult to express my opinion:(

About My First Flight Today's my journal is about my first flight to foreign country. It was when I was a high school student. I felt very scared because the airplane was vibrating all the time and I had strange feeling when the airplane took off. But, in these days I used to take airplane as a business trip. Sometimes I want to remember the first impression or feeling of the airplane.

Re-start of my journaling Recently, I realized my construction skill is a little bit poor because it usually takes long time to come up with sentences I want to say. That is because my practice is not sufficient to improve my construction level to higher level. So, I decided to start writing my journal everyday via this site. I really appreciate if someone correct me my mistake :)

Effects of internet technology in school Today I had an English lesson with my teacher. But I could not tell my opinion smoothly...I want to improve my ability of sentence construction. I wrote down my opinions. Q1. Do you agree that more research should be done on the effects of technology in the classroom? Why? Why not? A1. I agree with that. We should estimate the effects of the technologies because I think the teachers have negative opinions about accept them. I think denying the internet technology is extreme opinons. I think that article is very negative to accept the internet technology. I assume teachers may be afraid that they will lose their job or their job will make harder. ( the beginning of sentences is always "I think ~~"... It is very boring.) Q2. Why do you think digital devices are so addictive? A2. Smartphones are very adictive because we can add what they want easily. Like video games or SNS, music applications. Q3. Do you believe that technology may have a negative effect on the way children's brains develop? Why? Why not? A3. I agree with that. In my opinion, the role of human is changing theseday. I mean human don't need to memorize something but computer will memorize instead of human. If we'd like to know something, we can search on the internet or our smartphones. So it has negative effect but I don't think so.

My opinion about Facebook activity Today I discussed the current Facebook activity with my English teacher. According to the news, Facebook started to rate user's trustworthiness to prevent from appearing fake news. The user judge whether news are true or false, after then Facebook confirmed that news is true or not. If the user judgement and Facebook research match, the user will get a point. ( Even if they don'y match, user don't lose their point.) Then the news which are judged by trustworthy user will appear earlier than other news in the near future. In my opinion, it is very difficult to judge the news is true or not because many news often have partially correct and wrong. It is important to clarify the boundary between truth and false.

About a Brazilian tribe who is found for the first time Today I had an English lesson with my teacher. We discussed a Brazilian tribe who was found by drone. According to the article, the Brazilian government found a new Brazilian tribe for the first time by using drone. I heard that there are already 107 tribes in Brazil. And in conclusion, they decide not to contact to them and let them go. I think it was very surprising to me that there are so many tribes in one country. I assume that they may fight with other tribes and eventually they may become one big tribe because they invade other's land or food or resources. But it did not become so. When I read that article, I assume that they are so peaceful people. And I thought we should respect each culture and language and tradition.

Phrase about happy feelings Today I had an English lesson with my online teacher. Today's topic is about the phrases which describe feelings. When we describe happy feelings, I learned the following phrases we can use. 1.Happy camper When I feel happy, we can use "I am a happy camper." It means that we are happy for our life. 2.It’s too good to be true. It means that we can't believe that something very happy happened to us. 3.I’m walking on air. It means that we have feeling like we are walking on fluffy surfaces such as on a cloud. 4.I'm in a good mood. It means simply we feel very good. 5.Yes ! / I did it ! It is very short word to describe happy feelings.
