my opinion about Kokubo

the report from Honors English Seminar about Kokubo.

Kokubo is a 21-year-old snowboarder. How he looks isn’t the kind of fashion everybody like especially old people. But all what he has done is he didn’t wear Olympic uniform ‘rightly.’ In my opinion, it is too strict to bar Kokubo from the opening ceremony. Of course, he did something wrong. In general, if you need to wear suits, you should do it properly, especially in public. He is one of the representative atheletes of Japan, and he should know that he has responsibility. He really needed to follow the dress code. He is too young, and it was his first Olympic. Then why didn’t people around him give him advice? Sensible people should advise him not to do so. And he apologized after he noticed what is going on. This is one of the opportunities to grow up. He is a great snowboarder. But he needs to have better attitude to grasp opportunity. This is one of the severe trials/ordeals to be a sensible adult.

BR-1-03:World Instruments

explains and show lots of instruments with some pictures. Bagpipes from scotland need to blow Bagpipe really hard, and player need to wear the uniform looks like skirt. some people in west indies bangs on steel drums to make music. for us, steel drums are just steel drums, but for them, steel drums are important instrument. I didnt know that sacophone is from united states of america. I found panpipes cute, you need to blow gently with it and it is from Peru. And the most interesting instruments is Didgeridoo. it is huge and people play Didgeridoo put some interesting paint on their face.

It is always nice to see new people and culture. I love to walk around and drive around and take pictures. I would love to take pictures of your city too. I saw some of the pictures of your city on the internet and they were really pretty! I also love swimming! Is there any beach or place I can swim close from your home?
