Essay2-01 Website review ~Basketball~
I Wrote a website review about basketball.I referred to some website about basketball.I used Japanese website and American website. First I introduce about American website. When we watch American website about basketball, most of contents are about NBA. NBA is professional basketball league in America. Many things about NBA were written in Website that I watched. For example teams, scores, schedule, news, shop and so on. Also we can watch photos. Why most of things are about NBA in American website? Because I think that NBA is very popular all over the world. NBA is very exciting and there are many good players in NBA. People in the world will want to get information of NBA. So I think that most of things about NBA in American website. By the way, Beijing Olympic was held in this summer. America team of Beijing Olympic won in this year. So This thing was treated as very big news.
I watched another website. It is Japanese website about basketball. Next I introduce about Japanese website. Japanese website is different to American website. There is professional basketball league in Japan. But not popular because it started a few years ago. Some people don't know that professional basketball league started in Japan. So Japanese website doesn't have only professional basketball league. Japanese website has about junior high and high school basketball too. We can get information of "inter high school athletic competition" and "winter cup". These competition are very important and very exciting for high school students. Of cause, we can get information of NBA from Japanese website too. Recent main news in Japan is YUTA TABUSE came back to Japan. He is very good Japanese basketball player. He had been to America to play basketball in NBA a few years ago. And He played in NBA practically. There are a lot of TABUSE's fan in Japan. So Japanese professional basketball will be popular than now. I like YUTA TABUSE too.
I hope that Japanese professional basketball will be popular in Japan like NBA in America. And then I hope that people in the world will be able to watch about Japanese professional basketball like NBA. If so, people who play basketball increase and level of Japanese professional basketball league will be higher than now. I think it is very good for Japan.

Title of the movie that I watched is "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn". This movie is very interesting. Main character are Huck and Jim. Jim is a black and he is discriminated. Huck is best friend of Jim. So he helps Jim to ran away. And then adventures of Huck and Jim start!! I watched this movie, I decided that my theme is discrimination of black people.

Test
Today, I took listening and reading test. Both of test were difficult for me. Especially listening test was very difficult. I couldn't answer the question well. When I finished the test, I was sink.
Reading test was like vocabulary test. It was easier than listening test for me. But I didn't learn vocabulary very well. So actually, reading test was difficult too. Probably, I think that result is bad. Can you answer the question of listening and reading test well??
By the way, I will also take the test tomorrow. So now, I study hard for the test. The test for tomorrow is very importance too. I will do my best tomorrow!!
