Learning with computers
Learning with computer is very useful, I think. I often use it during my classes to watch some movies, some pages and so on. There are many chances to use computer. This is one of the way to lean many things.
Before
Before I use a computer, usually write by my hands. It took many times and I had to pay attention to write correctly. It is hard work for me. Once I have a mistake, I have to use an eraser and write again or some times we need make our documents from first. It is very hard work for us. On the other hand, to use a computer it is easy to modification. If we save our document’s data in computer, we don’t have start again from beginning to make our papers.
However, hand writing is the best way to remember something. To use our hands, we can remember more easily. Before I use a computer, I can’t use a computer. I think I don’t have so many chances to use computers. My typing was very slow and I don’t know how to use them.
After
I often use a computer in my Writing classes. In this class, I have to type in 5 minutes as fast as possible and sent a mail. Using computer was not easy for me but I can use it a little now. I think this is very useful and interesting. Before, I don’t use a computer in my house because I am not interested in it. However now I often use a internet and e-mail. If use a computer, we can send messages faster than a letter.
During writing Ⅲ&Ⅳ
During the class, we have to use a computer. At first, we have to typing as fast as we can and send a mail to our teacher. To type was very difficult for me because my typing speed is very slow and I often make some mistakes in my writing. However I think that now is a little faster than first time. To use a computer is not only in a class, maybe we have to use in our job, life and so on. Learning with computer is good way to get useful information but there were some bad infomation for us. We have to choose which one is good or not.
Conclution
I think studying with computers are good for us. Now, there are many computer around us and we can use it very easy. Many children use them and study.
Maybe in the future, more children use computers to study something and each house will have some computers. [443 words]

CM
Today, there are a lot of commercial messages around our life. These massages are very useful for us, because they give us a lot of information. For example, some companies make commercials to inform their new products. This is one of the ways to send a massage to people. And now, most of people have TV in their houses. So, this is good way to spread their new goods. The commercial massages are called ‘CM’ by many people.
Body
The CM history
The first color commercial is produced by Toyota in 1962. In those days, the color TV is not so popular among people so the company tried to make color commercial. This CM became very popular and then, many companies or many local areas make their own commercials to inform some news and so on.
Japanese commercial
Japanese commercial has many rules. For example, The CM wich conected medicine, thry often shows some attention. ' please ask your doctor if you have a probrem' or ' If you have a allergy, please don't take this medicine'. To take safty, we have to keep these attention and we have to read them when we bought medicine. of course we have to check them.
Second, the CM which made my alcohol campanies, they have to show one important message.
In Japan, not people who are 20 years old can't drink alcohols. So alcohol canpanise shows 'Don't drink if you are undre 20'. And nowadsys, we have one big problem. This is ' drink and drive'
This is very dangerous. Actually, many accidents occured in this year and many people especialy littele children killed by these accidents. I don't know why people who drink a lot of alcohol drive to get to their house. I think they have to call taxi or call their family. I don't have a driving license yet. However I am going to get this license in next year. I want to think about this problem again.
Local CM
I think each area has each local CM to intoroduse thier area. In Kumamoto has many local commercial. Of course, there are some local TV programs and local news programs. They encourage to develop each area. So,they make unique commercial. Now many local area has a sserious problem. It is depopulation. To gather many people , they have to do public relations on
how attractive place there is and why there have such a value to come this area.
I have seen the CM produced by Tamana city, one of a city in Kumamoto. They introduced hot spring because this city has many good hot springs. Many people came to this town to look for good hot spring.
What is role of CM
I think The role of CM is one of communication between companise and us. The time which we can watch them are very short. However we can understand and remember very clearly what they want to say and what is new product in this company. I think there are some reasons. One of them are to use a famous star in CM. this is very important because they are very famouse and it make possible to ggive strong impression for people who watch CM on TV.
Second is to make easy CM. the time is very short so they have to make them more easy to understand and need some device, for example unique music and so on. A unique music has strong power, I think. Mant children wached these CM and listenesd to music, they can remenber very easy and singing.
These tendencise are often ocurred.
Conculusion
The CM is very interesting. Many CM are broadcasting onTV and we have many chance to watch them. The food companies, the air line companies, some goods produse companies and so on. I want to know more and I am interested in this world.

community life
I worked there as a seller. This job was very hard for me, there was very comfortable for me. There are some reasons. First, I could learn a lot of things through my experience in there and from my friends. Many people came to our shop to buy their meal, and we had to make some lunch boxes for them. However, we din’t have to make so slowly. We had to make it quickly, but its meaning is not a sloppy job. Of course we had to make so quickly but it need to make so correctly to manual. In the evening, a lot of people, for example, a student, a homemaker, an office worker often came there. They seemed very busy and they didn’t have a time. So, they bought something to eat for their dinner. I could learn that how important to have a communication with customers. I was usually stayed in the cash desk, so I had many chance to talk with the customers. To keep smiling is not easy for us, because when we are not in good health condition, to make smile is very difficult. However a smile is very important for the salesman. My boss said me that if I am not happy, I shouldn’t express my mind. I have to make a smile for other people. That is professional. I think so too.
Second reason is I could make very precious friends in there. They are very kind and best friend for me. The most of them left this part time job now include me. Some of them got a job, the others are student now. We often went out together. We went to Aso in this year. It was very cold day. However it was very fun because I was stay with my friends. Now, we don’t have so many chances to meet, but sometime meet each other. I am very happy to make such good friends in there. They always helped me when I had a mistake. One day I forgot to put goods into the bag. The customer was very angry and called us. We need to deliver it for customer’s home. My friends said me “Don’t worry, I will bring it to this house” and I and my friend went to the customer’s house.
The part time job is very important for me. I can learn many things from them and I can have many experiences in there. To speak many people who have different kind of jobs is very interesting for me. When I worked this store, many taxi drivers came and they often spoke to me.
I have a new part time job now. I want to make new good friends in there. [474words]
