I read Oliver Twists during summer vacation and I became interested in Charles Dickens’s books so I read this book. I didn’t know much about his life and that his story was inspired by his own experiences and his life. When I read Oliver Twists, I felt similarities between David Copperfield that they were both in severe situations without any person to count on. 今Dickens のGreat Expectations を借りているので読みたいと思います。

ページ全体にヘビが広がっていて、私はあまりヘビは好きではないのでページをめくってビックリしました… なので途中から文章ではなくリスニングオンリーで読みました。 ヘビが思っていたよりも繊細だったことは知らなかったです。たくさんのヘビが死んでしまった原因を突き止めたのがすごいと思いました。

戦争や紛争によって政府が一部の人間にコントロールされてしまい、さらに芸術においても制限が設けられてしまい弾圧を受けるという現状を実感し、恐怖を覚えた。

Capoeira というものを初めて知った。 これはブラジルの奴隷であった人々が身を守り自由を獲得するためのダンスと格闘技が混ざったもので、調べてみると自分の家の近くでも習い事として教室があるのを知った。 今度どんな踊りなのか調べてみようと思う。

去年NSでMarsのテーマの文章を読んだのを思い出した。 このシリーズは、本文も面白いけれど最後の特集ページが読んでいて楽しい。 Moon,Mars,Space Station の環境を比較している表があっていずれも自分の想像以上に着くまでにかかる期間が短くてビックリした！

イカがカメラマンの方に近づいて絡みつくシーンが恐ろしかった。 深海に潜るのにここまで怖い目に遭うとは… イカは人間を食べることも起こりうると知って深海には、もし機会があったとしても行きたくない。

This book is one of the representative works of Charles Dickens. Some parts of the story were similar to the David Copperfield, which is another book of Dickens, in that protagonists of these books were both in a desperate situation in their life. Reading this story, I felt that if the circumstances around you are bad, it is usually difficult for you to adapt and change, but it is also important to never giving up on your life. Oliver met Mr Brownlow who was very nice to him and he could obtain happiness. When I discovered the truth of the characters relationships and connections I was really surprised! If you want to be absorbed in reading books, this book is the best option for you.

This story was the time of Second World War. It was really stimulating for me because I hadn’t read much of these historical nonfiction books so I could feel the difficulties and tragedy of war. Pelagia and Corelli’s love story was beautiful. This book told me that the war changed people’s lives and people who lived at that time were tough and had strong spirit. Any way this book’s characters relationships were sometimes difficult to understand but it was a nice book. この本の終わりのチャプターで感動するはず。

物語の前半部で、Ikukoさんがまさか日本に残っている彼氏を捨てて？ザンビア出身の男性の元へ行ってしまうとは思わなかった…それから50年後くらいの後半部では違ったはずの人生にリンクしていた点が次第にわかってくるところが面白かった。 物語の続きがどうなったか見てみたい。

コメントを書くのが遅くなってしまいました。 This story has an impact on me and I was surprised by the first scene of the book. The scene is that Karen’s car had an accident and she died because of it. Also I couldn’t believe that this story is nonfiction! If you want to know about her life or find out what she has been doing during her career.

This book described a woman’s life which is seriously bad and Nat who is an investigator saw the woman on the street. There were lots of human dramas related to a homeless woman. The last scene was touching.

The second story of this series. There were droughts and Anna, Caleb and Sarah went to the east to make their life safe. However children began to miss their home and their father. Then…? 次のシリーズの本も読みたいです！

This book described how Studio Ghibli was formed and what the each movie had told to us. Starting from the Castle in the Sky, it had produced a variety of stories and make people feel excited. I really love watching those movies so I could enjoy reading with some memory of those films. There are comments and storylines about the films so you may be interested in reading the book. The author showed some perspectives so it’s worth reading! Anyway, I love “Cat Returns” and “Whisper of the Heart” so I really enjoyed reading when I read those two sections. この本の作者は一般の日本人よりもジブリの映画について詳しいです。（詳しすぎました笑） ジブリ好きにはオススメ！

This book was a deep love story. Megan and Huw loved each other and when they were 16, something had happened… After fifty years, they met again but there were some problems. It was exciting to read and easy to read!

Empire State Buildingの歴史について初めて知った。 建設の時の現場や、他の建物の高さの競争など建物を建てる時の建築家のプライドを感じて面白かった。

OBWの授業で読んだことがあったけれどシリーズが違うと物語の入りが少し違った。 絵がリアルに描かれているから、Dr Jekyll とMr Hydeの関係性がよりリアルに伝わってきた。

事故の拍子に違う人と入れ替わってしまって… なぜ他の人と入れ替わってしまったのかはわからないけれど、ラストのシーンが読んでいて少し怖かった。全体的にmp３の音がリアルで病院のシーンが結構怖かった。

Best Friendsというタイトルだったから、離れ離れになっても再会してずーっと友情が続くものだと思っていたが……… この本はなかなかそんなハッピーエンドではなく、離れ離れのままだった。 ところどころにスッキリするシーンが出てくるので読んでみてくださいー！

This book is a story of Frank McCourt, who lived in a desperate situation when he was a child, and he wrote this book. I read another Frank’s book called “Teacher Man”, which contained a story of his teaching career.

ベトナム戦争について授業で習って知っていたけれど、実際に写真をみたり当時の状況を読んでみるとものすごく悲惨なことが怒っていて、その影響で有害物質が戦争後も残っているのも、日本の基地がアメリカの軍の擁護をしていたことも考えると知らないで済まされないことだと思った。

In this book, I learned and touched the real injustice of South Africa. Steve Biko worked hard to make people notice about the desperate situation of South Africa. He fought against lies and injustice. “He died of hunger” It showed that black people had been discriminated against by white people. This word was a lie. There were lots of bruise and broken part of his body. He is one of the against workers of Apartheid and cried Freedom. If I had not read this one, I wouldn’t have notice the desperate situations, which most of the Black people were forced to face.

This story is based on Frank McCourt’s real experience of his teaching life. The description of the classroom and students were so real and I could easily imagine how the classroom was like. Some pf the students cause troubles to him and sometimes he didn’t know what to do to deal with them. Although lots of students cause troubles, he touched his students’ feelings and got along with them. I understand some of the student’s behavior such as try to talk to the teachers and listen to their story!

Morrie was suffering from ALS and he had only a short time left. Then the student, Mitch found that his teacher of university was on TV and started to visit him once a week. Morrie taught a host of things such as love, forgiveness, marriage, family and so on. It was a nonfiction book about them and there were their real voice recordings of the talking in the last chapter so I could hear and imagine how was the atmosphere of the time. I recommend you to read it and then find out what it is like to live in the present and future time. Morrie will tell you what is live and what is life.

Richard Nixon had a big scandal and by this scandal, he had no choice but to resign as president of the United States. Even though he did wrong, his efforts to become a president from his youth was a good thing.

I was surprised that Jimmy Carter who was a president of the United States acted equally at that time and his act like wearing not so expensive clothes or make his daughter to go to local school was good because his attitude was similar to the residents in the US. Even though he is not honored by people in US, I think he did great job.

This book was about a man who impersonated a man who died eight years ago and he tried to inherit a money and so on. I couldn’t imagine Brat’a bravery and notions about this crime.

To be honest, this story was too heavy for me to read. The relationship among Tess, Angel and Alec were difficult… The last two chapters were surprising and I couldn’t accept the fate of Tess. Through this story, Tess suffered too much by the experience with Alec and cruel attitude by Angel. I hoped to be a good ending but it didn’t. I want to read bright content one. この本は今までのOBWの中で一番重い内容だと思います。 私はAngelのTessへの態度に納得できず、、Tessが可哀想だったなと思ってしまいました。とにかくTessが置かれた状況が何かの試練なのか…と思わずにはいられないものでした、Tessには幸せになって欲しかった。

ルターの苦労がよくわかりました。カトリック教会の現状を指摘して『95ヶ条の論題』を著してプロテスタントの誕生に関わっていたが彼の書物は焼かれてしまった、など当時のヨーロッパは宗教と暮らしが密接に関わり合っていて教会の絶大な権力に逆らうのは難しかったのだなと実感した。 ここでも知っている人物が出てきたが、英語の表記と日本語の発音は違うので誰なのか推測しながら読むのは楽しかった。

Recently, I haven’t read essay in the English book, so I tried to read this book, which Mr.Goto recommended me to read. In this book, there was the author’s ideas for technology, internet and smartphones which make people addicted. I don’t use SNS apps such as X, Facebook and Instagram to fill my satisfaction of posting. I think I don’t be addicted at these apps, but I usually watch YouTube of my favorite artist and sometimes. It’s very hard for me to return to study so I must watch out for spending too much time on SNS. Although reading this book, I didn’t all agree with the author’s opinion. Nowadays, the Internet is connected to the society such as school so it’s hard to live a life without smartphone. May be we can take away our devices from our hands. Any way, this book warns you to spend time on SNS too much. If you are worried that you use smartphone too much, please read this book.

I really recommend you to read this book. This book was about a boy who became a violinist but it was a different story from any other story including violins. As I read this book for the first time, I didn’t realize the reason why the author wrote the story like this, something sad and heartbreaking. However I tried to read his book as much as possible I felt I could fine the answer. He tells us how peaceful world important is and how did people touched with the music during the World War Two. I was surprised that Jewish people had to play music because of their survival. I don’t think music is a way of surviving so I couldn’t imagine of that circumstance but I noticed that the life during war was so awful that many people were forced to play music even if they didn’t want to play for hateful people who kept them and kill them. It’s a good opportunity to learn what a peaceful world is. Please try to read this book.

As I want to recommend this book, I read this book imagining the background of the story again. The story was written Michael Morpurgo whose family lived during war time.

After this changing, Francis had changed his mind. He decided to work for his country like his brother as a secretly trained soldier. The situation of that world worse than ever and he was at risk of be killed in the prison. I thought this circumstance was one of the worst things of all over the world and this book told me of importance of peaceful world. If you have time, please read this book.

I think that the fourth story was the most scary story because I couldn’t imagine how the murder worked and who was the criminal. This books has five mystery stories so if you like mystery please try it!

ストーリーはOBW で扱ったDorian Gray だったからYL4.8でも他の本よりはかなり楽に楽しく読むことができた。 OBW の時の挿絵よりもこのシリーズの挿絵の方がカラーだったせいもあるかもしれないが、怖かった。最後のページはゾクっとした。 授業で一回扱っている本だから読みやすかったのでぜひ読んでみてください！

This story was about Michael Morpurgo’s uncle’s story. 作者の叔父の目線で物語が進んでいった。あってるかわからないけれど、彼の叔父は戦時中にスパイ（？）をしていたけれど実の弟の死をきっかけに戦争ナチスへのレジスタンスを始めた。 戦争は人の暮らしも考え方もどんどん変えていってしまう恐ろしいものだと改めて思った。 分量は多いが挿絵がわかりやすかったため1日で読めた。 平和への想いが強まる一冊。

最初はギターかっこよ！と思って借りたけれど、ギターの中に深いエピソードが潜んでいた、、 読んでて面白かったー

犬が出てくる物語は大体優しくてほっこりする物語。この本もやはり、、ほっこりする本でした。 ネタバレは避けますが、私は犬の近くで育ったから犬の優しさは知っているつもりです。この本に出てくるTeddy という犬も人間の兄弟に寄り添う姿が描かれていて犬の優しさを思いました。 犬好きの方は読んでみてはどうでしょうか？

今までにも他のシリーズで読んだことがある作品。 最後の結末の驚きと文章全体のユーモア溢れる感じが忘れられない。

動物の愛を感じた一冊。 色々な人の元へ売られたり買われたりしていたけれど、最後に飼い主のために命懸けで戦ったところが切なくも逞しくもあった。

最初はこの題名から、かっこいい作戦をして悪を倒す的なストーリーかと思っていたが、読んでいたらミステリー小説だった。 主人公は知る由もない恐ろしい事実がすぐ横にあって、とても怖かった。ミステリー好きな人にはオススメの一冊。

外国の文化にもそれぞれ違いがあるんだなあと思った。 個人的には狩をして動物を捕まえている男の人がたくましいと思った。

コアラを救うためのfoundationはすごく大事なものだと思った。 コアラはオーストラリアに住む代表的な動物で生息範囲が減少してしまっている事実を知り、何か行動を起こして救う必要があると思った。写真に出てくるコアラがすごく可愛くて、なおさら生息範囲を元の水準に戻して救わなきゃいけないと思うようになった。

主人公のEmmaは、他人の恋愛の仲介役をしていたけれど、最後は自分の恋に向き合っていた。 恋愛って難しそうだなーと思った。Emmaは、自分が思っていたよりも人のことを理解していなかったから、他人のことを自分がよくわかっていると思いすぎない方が良さそうだなと思った。

緑ラベルにチャレンジしようと思い、レベルもB2だったから読めるかと思ったけれど、途中で話の内容がわからなくなった… 最初と最後は掴めたのでなんとか物語を繋げて読んだ。 ミステリーを読んだのが久しぶりで、ヒ素を食べ物に盛り、、という場面が怖かった。 すれ違った電車の中でひそかに起こった殺人事件を、たまたま違う電車の中から見た主人公はよく覚えていたなと感心した。観察力がすごい。

本をもらった当初はラブストーリーを読めるの！？と思いすごく明るくて楽しい恋の話だと予想していたけれど、本文の1行目でその私の予想は否定されました。 初めのJenniferとOliverの明るい恋とは対照的に最後のチャプターは悲しい展開でした。 テスト範囲だからといってChapter7を読むたびに本当にストーリーが悲しくて涙が出てきてしまいました。。 本当に感動しました。また音源と一緒に読むと違う良さがありました。

Roald Dahlの本。 YL4だから語彙が難しいんじゃないかと思っていたけれど先生にお勧めされたので読んでみました。読めました！ 言葉が全て反対から出てきてしまう病気になった主人公が結局全ての会話を最後の言葉から始めることに慣れたところが面白かったです。

この本は最近読んだ中で1番面白かった！！！ This book was about Nintendo which is known as a big game company. I knew about the company made card games such as Hanahuda. I read how this company grew up and who tried hard to make it bigger.It was a new discovery to me and it was fascinating!

帯屋先生のおすすめ本！ 授業で扱ったDorian Gray の違うシリーズで、時々OBWの内容とは違うものがあって面白かった。

一回どこかのシリーズで読んだことがある本だった。クリスマスにまつわる心温まる良い話だった。 人間関係が複雑なところもあったけれどOBW4にチャレンジしてよかった。

去年のWAWで万里の長城についてのユニットがあったので、少しは知っていたがここまで詳しくは知らなかった。 詳しく知りたい人にはこのシリーズおすすめ！ 

elementで出てきたNelson Mandelaの話。 文章に出てきたけれど、どんな偉大なことをしたのか詳しくは知らなかったので、わかってよかった。アパルトヘイト撤廃を呼びかけて取り組んでいたと知り、差別は絶対だめだなと思った。 

海底2万マイル この物語はすっごい有名なのに実は映画も本もみたことがなくて、今日初めてストーリーを知りました。 島に辿り着いても怪しい人がいたり大きいイカに襲われたり、自分だったら絶対嫌だなぁと思ってしまうような、大冒険の物語でした、、  でも面白かったです！ 

She has decided a difficult decision. If I was her, I will not be able to decide… Decision is always difficult…

He is blind but he can remember hundreds of books and numbers which he heard. This is his gifted point and I realized that everyone has own gifts. So if you think “I have no talented point” then, it is not a true idea. This book reminds us that everyone is special.

I didn’t know about “Capoeira”.  It is a Brazilian art that including dance and fighting. Many children learn many things from it, so it is good opportunities to take a one step to the adult. 

I read this book in the OBW class this term. Also today I read whole story again. There are many characters in this book, so it makes me confused but I found that all of them have unique, (I can’t explain without ‘UNIQUE’) personalities. I think Lord Henry has the worst personality… He influences many people with his clever words. In addition, I think Dorian is too sensitive to live.He was influenced a lot from Henry. Basil is a cause of all the problems…If he didn’t paint any portrait, the problems can’t have existed. As a result, there are some big and heavy problems around them and something strange happened…  In conclusion, I think all the characters have unique personalities and features so the story is interesting to read.

This is a book I read April to June in OBW class. I think this book is very interesting to read because the characters’ age are near with us. Also I learned that it is important to have some challenging spirit! Therefore I want to challenge many things in my life even though what I have never done. Also the ending was funny! I like this ending because no one was hurt.

~~We are in Africa in the midnight~~ What will happen and who starts activities? If we go to there at the time, we might meet some animals which is said dangerous like lions.

Imagine you are in the tropical island in Trinidad. ~There are many birds which are moving around in the tree. Almost all the birds in the forest have unique colors.Not only birds but also insects are there.~ Isn’t it a good place? I don’t like insects at all but there must be a wonderful scenery!!

Do you like dinosaurs?? I love watching Jurassic World Series movies by Steven Spielberg. When I read books which related to dinosaurs, I can find pictures of the film of Jurassic Park and World Series so I get excited!!

Michael Morpurgo’s book!! I have read his book twice and they were really interesting and heart warming so I wanted to read his other books. This story was in war time(?) and main characters grandfather had some secrets… Please read this book!!

We wear clothes that are made of silk or other materials. So how did our clothes made??

This books’ series are nonfiction books, so if you like to read with real pictures, this book may make you comfortable when you read LL books.  I want to visit Barcelona once and feel art.

戦時中のオーケストラの話。 英語科の2人の先生からおすすめしていただいた本です。初めは物語の内容を掴むことが難しかったけれど途中で具体的な話になって、内容を掴むことができました！ 寂しい過去、苦いバイオリンの記憶… 複雑な感情が絡み合う、でも心温まる良いお話しでした。 ぜひ読んでみてください！！ 

This book was about a train which people can eat and travel with. I thought chef in that train has to make an effort for work in that train…

Harlem renaissanceという、アメリカのアフリカ系の人たちのアートや音楽などについての話しでした。私はこういう文化があることを知らなかったので知ることができてよかったです。

ボストン茶会事件の話。 私はアメリカ独立あたりの歴史が好きでたまたまこの本を読んでもっと好きになりました！ やっぱり重い税金を課せられた市民が起こした事件だけど、それはそれでしょうがないんじゃないかなと思いました。。

帯屋先生がおすすめしてくださった本！初めてこのシリーズ知りました。 この本は海賊について、自分が海賊になったという視点で書いてあるので、感情移入もしやすいし語数も軽いし大きい絵も ついているので読みやすかったです。

Tomがかなり酷い人で、この人が夫だったらそりゃあMarinaも愛想つかすなと思った。 Tomがその後さらによろしくない行動をするけど最後はあったかくhappy endingなので、面白いです。 

この話はLooney Tunesの今までの話でした。 私はtweetieのパジャマを愛用してますが、こんな昔からこの物語があったのは知りませんでした！笑 自分が知らなかったことも知るきっかけになります！ 

こんな昔にも政治の制度があったりとか今にも劣らない世界があったんだと思いました。 こういう文明もあるんだってこのシリーズの本で知ることができます。 

久しぶりに読んだOBW。 すごくホッコリする話しだった！最初はいきなり会ったこともない親戚の叔父の家に連れて行かれたが、そこでの良い出会い 、、、 人間関係もそこまで複雑じゃないので読みやすいと思います！ 

ついに読み終わった！！Paddingtonの物語！！映画を観たことがあったので、YL5.0でも読めました。とにかくPaddingtonの周りで起こる事件がかわいくて釘付けです。1つのチャプターが20分くらいで分けられてたので一日1個とかでも全然負担にならない量でした。 すっごく楽しく読めたのでオススメです！！ぜひ読んでね。

Netflixについての話。 Netflixの成功の話が詳しく書いてあったり、驚くような情報がぎっしり！ Netflixって、社内にルールがないらしいです。あとは思ったことをそのまま相手にぶつけるっていう意識が根付いているらしく、そこにも驚きました。 

Atlantis と聞いてどういうものを思い浮かべますか？？ Atlantisはかつて栄えていたけど海底に沈んだ都市のこと。 この本ではそんな幻想的なAtlantisについてわかりますよー！ 

日記形式の物語だった。 ドラゴンについて基本情報以上の情報が書いてあった。

久しぶりにこのシリーズ読みました。Maggieがマジック使っててかっこよかったー！ （本音:YL1.8くらいだからすぐ読めるだろうと思っていたけれど結構ストーリーを掴むのが大変だった、、） 

飛行機事故って怖いなぁ…って思いました、、この本は飛行機事故で無人島に不時着した人たちの話です。 不時着した飛行機に乗ってた人たちのバックグラウンドがそれぞれ異なっていてサバイバルをする中でそういう人間っぽさがじわじわと出ていた本だったので面白かった！ 

I could read it!!!! I have never read long book as this! 私にも、こんな長い本が読めるとは…。。嬉しいです！！ この本は夏休み前の多読通信に載っていた帯屋先生のおすすめ本です。（2週間以上かけて毎日読みました笑）  知らない単語が多くて、意味を汲み取ることが難しい部分もありましたが、前後の内容を繋いで想像をすることで大体の意味は掴めました。 個人的にはChapter17，18が好きです。よかったね〜！ってAnneに言いたいです。

やっぱり、Greatest Inventionは文字かな〜と思った。 文字がなかったら今も私たちは昔のことを知ることができないし、かといって、他のチャプターで紹介された汚染水の処理技術とかも大事だなって思った。 今では当たり前のように使っている物でも、無意識で使っているものだって先人たちの知恵や努力が詰まっていると思うと感慨深い。

帯屋先生のおすすめ本！ 私は同年代の男子と関わる機会が全然ないから、teenagers の恋がどんなものなのか…？と思っていたけれど、この人たちの恋は想像以上に複雑で面白かった。 （こういう恋愛が日本であるかと言われれば微妙なのか…？学生の「恋」をよく知らないから分かりませんが笑） しかもこれは私とほぼ同い年の人たちの恋ですよ？笑　と考えたら、彼らの熱に圧倒されました。   特に私はPaceyの恋愛が、、、こんなコトあるの！？！？と思いました笑 たまーに「え！」とか「おいっ！！」とツッコミたくなるシチュエーションも多々あるので、ハラハラドキドキしながら読める一冊だと思います！オススメですよ。

1600年台にロンドンで疫病が大流行していたことは知らなかった。 疫病を防ぐために感染源だとされていた犬や猫をラットの毒で殺していたという話が印象に残った。でも、そのラットがgreat plague＝大疫病の発生源だったから結局イギリス政府は、感染を助長していたとしか言いようがない。 そのことがわかったとき当時のイギリス政府はどう考えたのか。 政府の勘違いで引き起こされた犬、猫の大虐殺はあってはならない。 また人間に対してもコロナが流行した時のロックダウンのように、当時もロックダウンのように外出制限もしたそうだ。 この1251wordsの中でここまで考えさせられる本は初めてだ。 

自分が知らなかった不思議な大会がアメリカにあるんだな〜と思った。 ただ、犬をサーフボードに乗せてなん匹乗るか見たいな大会は個人的には犬が大好きで可哀想に思えてくるからやめてほしい… 

この本では汚いことと密接に関わる仕事、死ぬかもしれないという危険を伴う仕事について書いてあった。 殺人事件現場を片付ける仕事や、釣ってきた魚の体の中身を綺麗にする仕事、警察の捜査に参加して死体について処理をしたりする仕事など、そういう仕事の存在について全然考えたことがなかった。言われてみたらドラマとかで出てきていたりする仕事もあったけれど、ドラマを見ているだけでは裏では、こんな仕事があるんだろうなと想像することもないのでこの本を読んで衝撃を受けた。

Do you want to go or travel the dangerous place? I don’t want to go the dangerous place like in this book’s story. I have no confident of live alone and can’t live with little food and little water… 

この話は altruism＝利他主義 について。  よく相手のことを思って…と考えるけれど最終的には自分の利益を無意識のうちに考え、求めていた、、なんてこともしばしば。  そんな経験、多分誰にもあるはず。この本は、様々な人のために行動をした人達のノンフィクションが書かれています。 よければ読んでみてください。 

世界のnomadsの話だった。 今まで知らなかった遊牧民についてたくさんの写真付きで読むことができたので、楽しかった！！ 個人的にはシベリアの遊牧民のところが好き。 

sharkって、強くて人を食べちゃうんじゃないかとJAWSや他のテレビ番組で見て思っていた。けれど、実は人間がサメをサメの皮やヒレを求めて殺しており、そのためにサメの数が減っているということを初めて知った。 人間がサメを怖がるのと同じように、サメにとっても人間は脅威でしかないのだなと思った。

URSさんのコメントを見てこのシリーズを読み直してみました。まず最初に自分の中でのスポーツの定義を覆されました。テニス、野球など、よく目にするスポーツとは他のものについても説明があって興味深かったです。
