In this article 'Four marines investigated for rape',it is reported that four marines are suspected of assaulting the woman.Two writers,Manuel Sandoval and Kevin Egan,makes responses to it each.
Manuel Sandoval the writer of 'Don't judge marines too fast',uses her authority that she was once assigned to Tachikawa Air Base.She seems to say from the logic'"you can take the girl out of the bar, but you can't take the bar out of the girl." that all people who work in a bar do such a bad act such as going out with Four men and being raped by them.In this logic,all people who work in a bar are denied but it is not correct.For that part, is is implied that four marines do not have to be punished because the woman had fault.However,they should be strongly punished through the fact by police.
Finally,she insists on whether military in U.S. is needed or not.They should protect their own countries from crimes such as rape as their work.The content has nothing to do with whether the four marines are punished or not,it is to make reader imply that it is dangerous to put military in other country including Japan because as people like the four marines,there are some bad millitaries.However.unless they are punished,military all around the world are needed because they are here to protect their countries and other countries.

Why I am in IES
When I took a first TOEFL test,I miraculously got a good score.I could not believe why I got such a good score.I was very happy to that,but I was so worried about IESa class.I also could not believe why I could be an IESa student because my ability of English is poor.
According to my guess, there are some people who have lived in foreign countries in IESa.They speak English very fluently.After one month passed,I was full of much stress because I thought I could not follow the class of IESa,reading is difficult and I cannot say what I want to in English. But,I worked hard by myself and something in my mind has changed.
One of the reason why I am in IES is to come true my dream.
In fact,my dream is uncertain but I have been interested in air hostess since around junior high school.From the time, I already decided to enter the foreign language university and improve my English skill.When I heard of IES,I had interest in IES soon and signed.
Second,I want to study abroad in 3rd grade.I really want to go to Canada because I have been to Canada and it was really really nice place.I wanna go there again!!It's my big dream and my parents also allow me to go abroad.
I want to improve my English skill for my dream and make foreign friends!!
For these things,I think I am in IESa class now.
There are many opportunities to speak,write in English and listen in this class.
But,in fact,I cannot say what I want to in English in front of class.
So,I think my strong self-confidence is needed!!I'll keep my effort in order to stay in IESa!!

In Hyogo university where my best friend goes,FLOW will come.Probably,not everyone know them(in fact,I don't know well)However, their concert will be exciting one because their songs are passionate.I'll go there.
Also,it is good chance to go to school festivals where your friends attend because you can see them and talk a lot and enjoy eating or stage.
That would become good memory in your life!!

Hello!Did you enjoy somethig this weekend?
In my case, on Saturday,I took TOEFL test.It was third time for me.After it finished,Yuji and I were disappointed because we did not do well.
On Sunday,I went shopping to Umeda with my mother(*∪*)
I have not gone shopping with my mother for a long time maybe since high school student.I do not have to carry my money because my mother pay for everything!!
This time was bithday present for me.
We went to EST and HEP and bought some cloths.My mother looked tired because I took her a lot of places. But,she enjoyd food shopping because she likes going to department underground called "Depachika"in Japanese.She looked happy when shopping.
We went back to home at around 7.I was so satisfied with shopping!!
I thank my mother for buying me nice cloths.
On Monday,I had been worked at my part-time job from 11:30a.m. to 8:00p.m.!!
It was eight and half hours work...too long!!
I had rest time for 1 hours only.My feet hurt because I kept standing up.
But,fortunately I could earn 6800yen only one day(＾б＾)
I had a good time for three days.

Japanese:A language in a state of flux
The article written by Tomoko Otake seems currect,I think.Now in Japan,people cannot live without gairaigo because they had already forgotten how to express the word in Japanese compared to people in an old time.I think the origin is rapid importation of gairaigo as the author says.
In fact,people especially young generation use katakana when speaking and writing just like me. I suggest that government should consider the linguistic problem with people in foreign countries and take back the original Japanese as soon as possible If they do not do,the most meanings of Japanese would disappear gradually.I think the effective way for it is firstly to change the way of education from elementary school to high school like changing the content of teaching materials.These students learn Japanese language at school in Japan.It is the first step to teach the original Japanese.
And I think reading Japanese old book is good for teaching kanji because many kinds of kanji which are useful and may not know ever are included into it.As I read it,I probably can learn kanji more. I have heard that people who like reading book not magazine know more kinds of kanji than people who rarely read books.I think it is true.
Of course,katakana is useful way for us because it is easy to speak and write.However,people should cherish the existence of kanji and use kanji it is difficult to express though.I also think for Japanese that knowing gairaigo more than Japanese language is kind of shame as Japanese.
