I learned how to analyze the articles. I read this article today.
*Three quarters of students take jobs in struggle to survive on loans*
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/education/article5225904.ece
I compared British university students with me. I was surprised at the results.Many part-time jobs are Unskilled/hourly paid in Japan but 30 % of students’ part-time jobs are Skilled/salary paid in British. I especially surprised at it. I am interested that 46% of students answered they work for basic living expenses is more than students in Japan. I guessed that it means the students who live in Britain are more independently than Japanese student.

***My summer vacation***
I went to Malaysia for homestay for 11 days. I had a really nice time. There are five people in my family who live in Malaysia, mother, father, two sisters and brother. They are very kind to me. I loved them very much!
There were a lot of special foods there. I ate many foods. I especially like some fruits, for example Rambutan, Dragon fruit etc.
***Coments for aeticle***
I thought this blog was very nice because it was intelligible for readers. This article is about Japan. I’m interesting about what foreign people think about Japan so I’m very glad to see these photographs. This blog is written by a foreign male who went abroad. There are many photographs in this blog and his thinks. I want you to read this blog carefully.

*質問1*
Do you really need this “World News” class?
Is it really necessary for your future life? Is it really useful for you?
まず、"World News"の講義は必要であると私は思います。
私の将来にとって必要かどうかは、正直わかりませんが
役立つことは確かです。
主な理由としては、外国に対する知識を増やすため。
日本だけではなく、世界について知ることは自分の視野を広げることであり
それは世界中で国際交流がさかんな中、とても必要だと思うからです。
他の国の文化は一体どのようなものなのか。
世界ではどんな問題が起きているのか。
自分で調べてみるということはとても勉強になります。
レポートのために"調べる"だけではなく
外国について"調べるということをメイン"にした"World News"は私にとってもとても役に立っています。
*質問2*
Do you really need to read world news in English?
Surely you can find all the news you need in Japanese?
世界の情報を英語で読むことに関しては私は必要なことだと思います。
第一に英語の語学の勉強になるからです。
自分で分からない単語を調べながらニュースを読むことはとても勉強になります。
また、単語の使い方、表現を学ぶ良いだと思います。
第二の理由は英語だからこそできる表現があるからです。
日本語に訳したものを読むことも可能ですが
英語でしか表現できないものや事もあると思います。
情報をそのままの形で受け入れるのであれば
やはり英語で読む必要はあると思います。
*質問3*
What information and skills do you really need for your future life?
私が必要だと思うものはまずは"分からないことは自分で調べてみる"
という能力です。
当り前のことだとは思いますが、Wikipediaなどで簡単に終わらせてしまったり
他のページから少し引用したりということが増えているように思います。
インターネットは便利な分、間違った情報もたくさん流れています。
ただ調べるだけではなく、いろんなサイトで同じことを調べ
正しい情報を得るということが必要だと思います。
次に、国内、国外の情報も必要だと思います。
外国の情報を知ることはもちろん、自分の国でも
今どういったことが起きているのか、常に知っておくべきだと思います。

http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,,23789467-5001021,00.html
干ばつが与えた影響は大きく、食べ物の値段さえも倍増させます。
水不足の深刻化は悪化し、輸入に頼ってる私たちも
真剣に受け止める必要があると思いました。
たくさんの記事を調べ、特にふさわしいと思った記事を選んでみました。
Wikipediaにも画像が載っていますが
オーストラリアの記事では特に水不足関連が多かったです。
日本も時には水不足になりますが、規模が全然違うなと思いました。
水不足も温暖化などが原因なのではないかと思います。
現在、オーストラリアでは家庭で使える水の量を制限され
水を求めて乱闘まで起こり始めています。
私ももう少し水に対しての意識を持とうと思いました。
