     New York, millions of people want to go there once in their life. I have never been there. I decided to use to make our class to feel like being in New York.     Do you know why people often call New York 'The Big Apple'? I didn't know why　before I read this one. Jazz musicians all wanted to work in New York. 'There are  a lots of apples on the tree,' they said, 'but when you take New York City, you can take The Big Apple!' That's why people call Apple.     I was really interested in food vendors. People live in NY came from all over the world, so food culture are diverse. I searched on the Internet, I found 'Chicken over rice' which is put chicken stake on a rice with white sauce, chill sauce and tomato sauce! That looked so delicious! These days, even in Japan, many people go and get them for lunch. New York culture are coming into our Japanese culture. I hope I can learn every culture from all over the  world through these kinds of book

     I read "Season and Celebrations" which was based on our presentation in Integrated Skills Ⅳ. I had already been familiar to British culture before I read this one. However, I realized how I know about British.      In this book,  a lot of British culture, from famous to minor, were explained. I knew " Remembrance Day" for the first time. When I first looked at the word, I thought it was like "Obon" in Japan, but it was completely different. I wanted to know about it deeply, I searched on the Internet. I found Poppy flowers cute. If you want to know poppy, you should check it on Google! Jackie, Maguire. Season and Celebrations.  Oxford bookworms Factfiles.
