Full House 1

I like Full House the best in all of foreign television dramas. I think that this drama is useful to educate children because the drama takes up social problems in the story. There are so many ardent fans of Full House in Japan. Although the stories are so interesting, the first story of first season is the most interesting. Now, the casts are energetic in many fields. I'm going to introduce present great efforts of casts and so on in my project. (82 words)

My project

There are so many kinds of television dramas in the world. Since I had watched Full House on TV when I was a third year of student in an elementary school, I have been interested in foreign television dramas. But I have ever watched only home sitcoms, I want to watch romantic and action foreign television dramas. I think that those are very interesting and fine.

Zoo DENTISTS


I read "Zoo DENTISTS". Dr. Paul and Dr. Sarah de Sanz are zoo dentists and they are father and daughter. They examine an elephant's teeth, a sea lion and rare black jaguar with a terrible pain its jaw. She treats human patients in her dental office in the San Francisco area in most of the time. She sometimes works as a zoo dentist and she treats animals. They do checkups, fillings and other dental work on any animal that needs treats. She and her father began to work on animals when she was a dental school student. He was happy because she became a dentist.




In the animal world, animals won't live if they have prob rems on their teeth, because they won't be able to do the natural cleaning of the teeth. They did it by chewing on bones and carcasses.


They began to check up Artie the sea lion. Artie was thirty years old and he made a very loud noise when she was checking up him. He agreed with her statement. Because he didn't have any problem on his teeth, she tried to take his X-ray. But it was so difficult. Whenever they took shots, he moved to a different position. At last, she succeeded in getting a clear picture. After all, his checkup went well.


Elephants always use six sets of teeth when those are eating and drinking. Sue was ten years old, old African elephant. They didn't only check the teeth in her mouth, but also looked at her tusks. Sue stand ed quickly while they examined her. Her teeth was nice.


One day, they have received a call from the Francisco Zoo. The zoo's rare black jaguar, twenty -one years old, Sandy who has a terrible toothache. 'Can I look in you mouth?'" he pointed out. At all, they put Sandy under anesthesia to look at it.


Zoo dentists must be careful when they put animals anesthesia. If they use too little, Sandy bite them. If they use too much, she will die. They prepared the drug and shot it into her. The team moved her to the operating room and tried to proceed with the surgery. But she has stopped breathing. Doctors gave her oxygen. She finally began to breathe on her own again. Her teeth were worse than they had expected. She became fine after she had surgery.


The dentists have completed another successful in a field of animal dentistry job.








Dentist is so excellent. I must go to a dental office because I want to take checkup. (423 words)









Points: 4.0




Points: -3.8 (Finish!!)

Mount Fuji


I read Mount Fuji. Mt. Fuji is one of the symbol of Japan. If there are not any typhoons or other bad weather, we can climb the mountain during a six-week period in July and August. In the summer, there are festivals to celebrate the mountain. Actually, some people consider Mt. Fuji to be a goddess.

Karen Kasmauski is a National Geographic photographer. She lives in the U.S. She trips Japan to take photographs of symbols of Japanese culture. Taking photographs of the mountain is so difficult, because rains and clouds cover it if it will be bad weather. At last, she took photographs of it!!

Why do Japanese people think the mountain is important? She feels that it can be viewed from almost anywhere around the mountain because it's very high. She explains, "The mountain dominates everything, and you can easily see how people would come to worship the mountain." Another reason, there are some Japanese people think Mt. Fuji is a goddess. There are many tourists at the base of it. They want to go back with a gifts. Some foods and bento boxes are sold in the tourist area. Climbing the mountain is strengthen your body and mind.


People who climb it use gambatte. Climbing it is hard, so they cheer up each other by saying "gambatte". It's often a so wonderful feeling to stand at the top of it after a long climb and look at a beautiful sunrise. Long time ago, only men could climb Mt. Fuji and they were wearing straw conical hats and tabis. There are vending machines at the top of it. People can buy some foods and drinks. And there are some vehicles that has to bring those the top. It's the bulldozer.

At the end of the climbing season, people have a bunch of groups that come and they clean up the mountain because a lot of trash and litter.

I want to see Mt. Fuji in Shizuoka in Japan. (327 words)

My favorite magazine


My favorite magazine is Non-no. It is a fashion magazine for young women. When I was a high school student, I bought it for the first time. Now, I don't buy it every month. I usually see it in the library. I can know present fashion only I can see it. Also, I have taken courses of librarian since this April. A teacher taught us that situation of the publishing. She said to us, "The publishing also struggle under the weight of a sluggish economy, so they add appendixes to books." If you go to a book store, some magazines that are added appendixes are arrayed. I knew that publishing companies are working out a strategy to raise boost sales. I will also see the magazine in the next year. (130 words)

My favorite chewing gum


My favorite chewing gum is XYLITOL the best. I can eat the gum of some flavors. Two months ago, I found a cavity in my mouth. I was so sad because I don't like to go to a dental office. I fell sick when a dentist looks at my teeth. I went there for the first time when I was about three years old. At that time, I liked to go there so much. I was pleased to go there. When I was a junior high school student, I went there to receive medical treatments. Then, I felt sick for the first time. In this month, I noticed that the cavity was lost. I was so happy, but I may have some cavities, so I will go three to receive as dental examination. I chew the gum to prevent cavity. (139 words)

My favorite smells are citrus scents and chamomile scent. I hadn’t soaked in a bathtub before because I became feel tired of taking a bath.

Princess Diana


I read "Princess Diana". Diana was born on 1th July in 1961 as Frances and Johnnie Spencer's third daughter. Her mother, Frances ran away with a man, Peter Shand Kydd when Diana was only six years old. Diana has an little brother, Charles. She and He were a loving brother and sister.When her parents separated, her grandma looked after her. But she was so kind, she died in 1972. In her schooldays, she liked English and painting. She was good at dancing and swimming the best. Also, she began to take part in the school's charity programme. She visited old or ill people in the town near the school and she talked to them and helped with their shopping. Her job was to look after bodies and small children. She loved children.



When Prince Charles was thirty-two years old, he was taking a longtime to choose his wife. Diana's sister, Sarah was his girlfriend. He was twelve years older that Diana. They met at a county house party for the first time when Diana was sixteen years old. Her sister, Jane married to Robert Fellowes, the Queen's personal secretary. When Charles and Diana decided to marry, he gave her a beautiful blue ring. Although he had a fiancee, Diana, he often telephoned a woman
who was his old girlfriend Camilla Parker-Bowles.

On 29th July in 1981, they married in St Paul’s Cathedral, London even though she felt uneasy. In Britain, people were glad of their marriage. Diana was popular because she was young and beautiful. People also became interested in her clothes. She had a boy in St Mary’s Hospital, London on 21th June in 1982. But Charles wanted to name the baby Arthur, she preferred William. They gave him the names William Arthur Philip Lous on 3th August. About two three years later, she had another baby on 15th September in1984. He was named Harry.

While Diana spent busy days as princess of Charles, she began to work with charities. She began to meet people with terrible illnesses like AIDS. At that time, many people thought they could catch ALDS by touching someone. Diana held the hand of a man with AIDS. She showed that the view wasn’t true. After that she began to look too thin even before she marries. She had an eating illness. Even though her body condition was bad, Charles was giving Camilla presents and telephoned her privately. The mother of her grandmother also had a royal lover, King Edward VII. She and he were the same age. When she was young, she has married to Andrew Parker-Bowles. When Charles and Diana were on holiday in Switzerland with a group of friends, snow came down from the mountains and killed Hugh Lindsay who is one of their best friends. She is Sarah, and she and Lindsay got married few months and she was having a baby. And then Diana decided to help herself and she went to see a special doctor with her eating illness. In six months, the doctor visited her every week and her body condition recovered.

On 29th March in 1992, her father died. She came back to England from Austria. Prince Charles also came back there with her, but she went to her father’s funeral alone. After that she went together with two men. In 1993, recordings of phone conversations between Charles and Camilla appeared. They were still lovers. After Charles and Diana visited Korea, they were separating.
She took two sons to visit sick people in hospitals because she thought they need to understand some of the country’s problems. He went to Eton, one of the top schools in the country. He gave her the idea that selling a lot of her dresses for charity. She openly talked to reporter Martin Bashir about her life. In 1994, she visited India. She became friends with Mother Teresa who was famous for her work that to help poor people. In 1997, she has a new boyfriend, Dodi Al Fayed who was forty-two years old and a film-maker. They spent holidays. They were chased by the paparazzi. While they went back to Dodi’s house, the car hit a wall. The crash killed him and the driver, Henri Paul soon. The bodyguard, Trevor Rees-Jones was alive. Diana was very badly hurt and she was taken to a hospital, but she died. Her funeral was on Saturday, 6th September in 1997. Thousands of bunches of flowers were offered outside the Kensington palace by a lot of people. The look of the funeral was projected on a bug screen and many people watched.

I am strongly impressed by Diana. Her spirit of charity was so excellent. If I think I want to help people, putting the idea into practice is difficult. She is my respected woman. (793 words)
