Book Review 14: BRITISH LIFE


I read BRITISH LIFE. This book was written by Anne Collins, and about British, of course . Britain is the name for England, Wales and Scotland. Britain is the largest island in the world.

The United Kingdom is England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.It is about 250,000 square kilometers in size. And it's said that there are about six hundred banks in the city. I was surprised.

I have heard that The British population drinks about 200,000,000 cups of tea a day. That is an average of nearly 1,040 cupsof tea a year each person. I like tea very much, but I can't drink that much. I have never been to UK but I want to go there someday.

Boring!!

I had the party with my part-time-job's member in November, 16. We had a Italian food. It was good, but it was so expensive for me. We had to pay ¥3000 each of them. After eating, we went to boring. I like it, of course but I am not good at play it, I have been thought about that. However I got No.1!!! My score was 149. I was surprised. It was my best score ever. I had a very good time with them.

Book Review:"color purple"

I read "Color Purple". This book was told about black people. It was a little bit difficult for me to read and understand. I felt scary and anger. Because the women were always violated by man. Woman have to obey their husband and man all the time, like follower. Woman has been discriminating against for a long time, because they are woman, only this reason.
There were two sisters in this book. They were separated forcibly. They cried and cried. But lastly they met again after an interval of fifty years. It's happy end!!

Book review: "The Borrowears"

I read "The Borrowears" I heard that this book is very interesting. When I saw the book cover I thought that it was true. It was funny. Big man was bound by some dwarf.
The Lender family are human beings and the Clock family are 'Borrowears'. They live happily together in an interesting old house. The Borrowears are very small and very clever. Pod Clock was only ten centimeters tall.
Hundreds of kilos of cheese fell on Mr. Potter's head!! It was funny, but if hundreds of kilos of cheese fell on my head I'm going to die. I want to watch this movie next time.
