So he pushes his big rig, Mack to travel all night long. Mack tries to avoid falling asleep, but becomes the victim of a gang of reckless street racers, subsequently causing the sleeping Lightning McQueen to roll out of the back of the trailer unnoticed.

If you have foods, she does performances but if you don’t have foods, she doesn’t do performances. My family always has a trouble. But she is very cute so we allow her. She likes going for a walk. She always waves her tail and she expresses pleasure when we try to go for a walk. On the way to go for a walk, she finds another dog, first she guards and second she ascertains that the dog is stronger than her or she is stronger than the dog. And then if she decides that the dog is stronger than her, she ran away. If she decides that she is stronger than the dog, she barks. Watching the scene is very funny for me.

I think that recently, dogs are very cheaper than my childhood. So you can easy to have a dog. There are many pet shops in Kumamoto. If you have never had dogs, please try to have dogs. You are sure to like dogs. I recommend you to have dogs.

Professional basketball in Japan and in the U.S

During I went to Minnesota in America, I studied about defferent of professional basketball in the U.S and professional basketball in Japan. Now I'm going to write about this.

1. Introduction
Recently, a professional basketball league was founded in Japan. Even so, in Japan, basketball isn’t very popular. In Japan, soccer and baseball are more popular than basketball, and basketball games are almost never broadcast on TV.
How is it in Minnesota? Basketball is very popular in America, so it is a probably very popular in Minnesota too. There is the National Basketball Association in America. NBA’ s games are broadcast on TV sometimes in Japan, and many NBA fans came to watch the game.
This paper will write the reason why NBA is popular in America and consider what we should do to make basketball more popular in Japan.

2. In Kumamoto 　
Kumamoto doesn’t have a professional basketball team, so professional
basketball isn’t very popular in Kumamoto. Soccer and baseball seem to be more popular than basketball among young people in Kumamoto. For example, elementary schools often have soccer and baseball clubs but not basketball clubs. This is one of the reasons that basketball isn’t popular in Kumamoto.
But basketball is popular among young people in some prefectures, for example, Fukuoka and Akita. They have many people who play basketball, and there are many good basketball players in Fukuoka and Akita. Yuta Tabuse who was an NBA player played basketball in Akita when he was high school student.
I asked Japanese students some questions about basketball. First, I asked “Do you think basketball is popular where you live?” Half of them answered “so-so”, about 30% people answered “Yes” and about 20% people answered “No”. Most students think that baseball and soccer are more popular in Japan. Second, I asked “What professional basketball team do you know in your country?” All of them answered “I don’t know”. We have some professional basketball teams for example “Tochigi BREX”, but nobody knows them because we have almost no professional basketball TV programs. Third, I asked “Do you ever watch professional basketball on TV?” Half of them answered “Never”, about 30% people answered “Rarely” and about 20% people answered “Sometimes”. Fourth, I asked “Would you like to watch more professional basketball on TV than you do now?” About half of them answered “No”, about 35% people answered “so-so” and about 15% people answered “Yes”. This shows well that Japanese students aren’t very interested in basketball games. Fifth, I asked “Have you ever watched an NBA game?” 70% people answered “No”, about 30% people answered “Yes, on TV” and nobody answered “Yes, in person”. We can watch NBA games on TV sometimes but it is always broadcast at 1 am or 2 am, so only a few people watch it. Sixth, I asked “In Japan, basketball is not as popular as it is in the US. Why do you think this might be?” People answered “US is very big country, so many good players play in US.” and “Japanese like baseball and soccer better than baseball.”

3. In the US
There is NBA in the US, so basketball is very popular in the US. Most of the states in the US have a professional basketball team. Minnesota’s team is named “Timberwolves”, and also there is a very big basketball court, named “Target Center”. People in Minnesota often go to watch basketball games. The biggest reason that basketball is popular in the US is performance. NBA games are very exciting and fantastic because there are many more good basketball players in the US than in Japan.
I asked American people the same questions that I asked Japanese students. The result of first question was about 70% people answered “Yes”, about 30% people answered “so-so” and nobody answered “No”. The result of second question was that all of people knew professional basketball teams in the US. For example, “Timber Wolves”, ”Chicago Bulls” and “Celtics”. The result of the third question was that about 60% people answered “Never”, about 25% people answered “Sometimes” and about 15% people answered “Rarely”. This result was surprising. American people aren’t as interested in watching professional basketball on TV as I thought. Most Japanese people probably think American people often watch NBA not only in person but also on TV. We think that all American people like to watch basketball. The result of the fourth question was that about 90% people answered “No”, about 10% people answered “so-so” and nobody answered “Yes”. This was also a surprising at result. Watching professional basketball on TV seems to be boring for Americans. The result of the fifth question was that about 60% people answered “Yes, in person”, about 20% answered “Yes, on TV” and about 20% answered “No”. The result of the sixth question was very interesting. People answered “Because basketball is newer in Japan.”, “Baseball is very popular in Japan.”, “Japanese people maybe are too short.”, ”Height” and so on.

4. Conclusion　
Now basketball is a very popular sport in the world, but basketball isn’t very popular in some countries. Basketball isn’t very popular in Japan either, but baseball and soccer are very popular in Japan. We have had professional baseball teams and professional soccer teams from a long time ago, so we can often watch professional baseball and professional soccer games on TV. We have professional basketball teams too, but they started only a few years ago, and we can’t watch professional basketball games often on TV. This may be why baseball and soccer are much more popular in Japan. Also we don’t have basketball courts outside like America. This is another reason that basketball isn’t popular. There are many basketball courts outside in America. This is a very good thing for boys who play basketball. We need to make better circumstances to play basketball everywhere.
Basketball is a very interesting sport. It is said Japanese are too short to play basketball but there are very good players in Japan too. We can’t watch games like NBA, but I think we can enjoy watching Japanese professional games too. Recently, Yuta Tabuse a very good basketball player came back to Japan. From now on Japanese professional basketball games will be more exciting because of him. I hope basketball is very popular than now. If basketball will be popular, people who play basketball will increase and level of basketball in Japan will improve.

My life in Minnesota

I went to Minnesota in the U.S last summer. It was very good experience for me. Now I'm going to write what I learned and what I felt.
I learned and felt a lot of things for one month in Minnesota. I have never been to foreign country. So everything is very fresh and very interesting to me. I learned language and culture. I enjoyed life in Minnesota very much above all.

Each house also has big yard and surrounds by nature. I thought it very good for people. Moreover I was surprised by large streets and people driving fast. In Japan, street is narrower than in Minnesota. I thought we can drive easier in Minnesota than in Japan. And there is no free -way that doesn't have to pay money in Japan. So people in Japan, always not so fast.
Next I tell about people in Minnesota. I thought people are very kind, very fun and very friendly. If I'm in trouble, people help me. It moved me. Of cause my host family was very kind and very fun too. They always thinking of me and they always make me happy. I went to a theater, lake, watching basketball, watching baseball game, church and tried water-ski and so on with them. All of those are very important memory for me. I can't you thank you enough.
Finally I tell about what I learned. I learned a lot of expressions and cultures. For example another expression of "I'm going to bed", "I'm tired", "I don't understand" and so on. These are very useful for me in the future.
I had a lot of good experiences in Minnesota. Before I visited Minnesota, I had some nervous and fear. But now, I'm happy. I will visit Minnesota again. I study English hard, and I will try to speak English better than now until I visit Minnesota next. I don't forget encounter in Minnesota.
