My husband is cooking Spaghetti
Dear man! Do you not know how to cook spaghetti?
Do you need the help of an experienced cook?
I will help you:
Start with a very large pot of water-- about six liters per 1 kg of pasta.
Add salt and the pasta, and let it cook.
Try the pasta after a few minutes to see if it is soft and elastic.
Drain the pasta and it is ready to eat.
You can also pour some sauce over the pasta.

My country
I'm from Austria and there are various stereotypes for the Austrian, many of which you might know. Some of these perceptions are quite harmless really: it's thought that Austrian people eat Wiener Schnitzel every week, and that we are quite snobby about Grinzing
(in the nineteenth district of Vienna) which is the only area in Austria that produces a special wine.
Or: It seems as if Saint Stephen's church is the symbol of Vienna to a lot of people!
Yes, it could be said that we do have high standards when it comes to food and drink ,after all Austrian cuisine is, as far as I'm concerned, the best in the world!

There are many festivals in the world, but I am only familiar with Chinese festivals because I am a Chinese person. As for foreign festivals, I only know of Thanksgiving, Christmas and Valentine's Day, but I don't know them exactly. Speaking of which festival is my favorite, I can't answer this question because you can say either I like them all or I don't. If I had to choose one, it would be the Chinese New Year. Why? Because it's the biggest festival in our country: during the Chinese New Year, there are many festival activities, many people involved. As a Chinese person, you may not know other Chinese festivals, but you must know this one, even overseas Chinese, they celebrate it every year. The deep impression that the Chinese New Year left me was when I was a child. At that time, all of our villagers were really poor. We didn't have enough food or clothes. Only when the Chinese New Year comes, can we eat a bit better food and have a chance to wear a piece of new clothes. So celebrating the Chinese New Year was our biggest and happiest thing. When the New Years were approaching, our family would prepare some New Year's stuff and make steamed buns with wheat flour (we weren't able to eat it unless at this festival), dumplings, buy some meat, couplets, candles and firecrackers. On New Years' Eve, we stayed late until 0 o'clock then set off firecrackers and fireworks. The exciting thing for kids was picking and collecting those unexploded firecrackers, though it's very dangerous. You know, life then was really boring, no toys, no fun, so even dangerous activities could make us happy. Of course, every year there will be a few kids who have damaged their hands and fingers. For some energetic kids, they would stay up a whole night playing cards or something like that. The next morning, people were supposed to get up early because it means that you would get as much fortune as you get early. Then the same root families would gather and go to their ancestors' graves in the fields to pay them homage by burning 冥币 (how to say it in English? ) And setting off firecrackers. Afterwards, they would go back to their villages and go door to door to pay New Year's greetings to their elders. Then they went back to their own house to enjoy their new year with being fully relaxed and doing nothing. From the next day, people would start to visit relatives until the fifteenth of the first lunar month. So it's very easy to see some drunk people lying on the road side or the fields with a fallen bicycle next to them. You know what? Visiting relatives, they would be treated with meat and Chinese spirits. Because they didn't have the chance to eat and drink them on regular days, they couldn't control themselves eating more and drinking more. After enjoying the meal and alcohol, on the way back home, they would fall down from their bicycles because they were drunk. Of course, every year, some of those drunk people would lose their lives because they drank too much alcohol.

Essay about traffict
Good morning folks, I am new in this community, could you please help me with the following essay? Thank you in advance
Car accidents are very common in our society, and a lot of solutions and opinions about that field are on the table. To Illustrate this point, we will talk about the state of these essay, where two examples have been compared: the first one talk about Prunty County, where the solution for ameliorate the highway safety consist in lowered the speed limits from 55 to 45 miles per hour. On the other hand, we have Butler County which bet for improving their road infrastructure. Indeed, the second case had better results and I will elucidate the reasons in the following pragraphs.
First of all, the attempt of decrease traffic accidents of Prunty County has not been success, because they only give an order, but they did not attack the core point of car accidents. To illustrate this point, we realize that not all the people respect the speed limits and that the installation of cameras and instruments results expensive sometimes. However, these accidents could decrease if the road and highways are in a good state and present adequate signage, also cars will not result so damaged due to bad state of roads, that situation will help to driver to preserve their vehicles in a better way.
The case of Butler County reflex the idea of the invest things such resurfacing rough highways or improving visibility at dangerous intersections could give us better results instead new regulations of speed limits. Notwithstanding, these infrastructure changes demands a lot of investment by local government and in some cases that cannot be possible in poor counties. So, in this case, the investment could be made it in the school, a place where children could have been made aware about the importance of driving and respecting the transit regulations, that could be a good point to decrease car accidents in many towns.
Likewise, The government should help to the people with not big taxes to acquire a new car, because these car implements new technologies like blind spot sensor, lane assitant or GPS, these new cars could help to prevent more accidents and they could pollute less than older vehicles. Obviously that we do not know the difference in the age of automotive fleet between Prunty and Bubler county, but recent studies has demonstrated that cars with cutting-edge technology cause less accidents.

Reseña de película: "Barry Lyndon" (parte 1)
Recientemente vi una película llamada "Barry Lyndon", por el director Stanley Kubrick. Kubrick es un director muy famoso en los Estados Unidos, y he visto una de sus otras películas, "2001: A Space Odyssey", pero no me gustó. Pensé que esa película fue demasiada larga y muy aburrida. Pero me disfrutó más "Barry Lyndon", que es también una película muy larga: corre tres horas.
Tomando lugar en medio del siglo 18, La película empieza con una introducción del protagonista, Redmond Barry, un joven irlandés cuyo padre fue matado en un duelo. Vive con su madre en Irlanda rural, y Redmond se enamora con su prima Nora (un aspecto de la historia muy incomodo...). Un día, un batallón del ejercito ingles (recuerda que en esta era, Inglaterra ocupaba y colonizaba la isla de Irlanda) llega al pueblo, y tienen una danza, en cual Nora baila con un oficial del ejercito, John Quin. Después, Nora dice a Redmond que nada pasó entre ella y John, pero luego John pide que Nora se case con él. Redmond, lleno de celos y enfadado, le reta a un duelo a John. En el duelo, Redmond dispara a John y John se cae, aparentemente herido mortalmente. Redmond decide huir a Dublin para evitar la policía, tomando solo un caballo y un saco de monedas. En el camino, se encuentra un par de ladrones que roba a él de su caballo y todo su dinero. Ahora a pie, Redmond logra alcanzar el pueblo próximo, donde hay personas que están reclutando para el ejercito ingles. Ya que es su única opción, Redmond se une.

L'histoire des syndicats
Aujourd'hui j'ai terminé ma lecture d'un livre sur les syndicats. Au Japon, nous souffrons en ce moment une stagnation de salaire, et l'auteur dit que ce phenomène s'explique par le manque des vrais syndicats au Japon.
En Europe, chaque ouvrier appartient à un syndicat industriel, alors qu'au Japon, la plupart des sociétés ont leurs propres syndicats, c'est-à-dire que les employés n'ont pas vraiment le pouvoir de négocier. Ce système a bien marché au cours de la périod de la grande croissance économique du Japon, qui a brusquement terminé lors de « la rupture de la bulle » qui s'est produit au début des années 90. Aujourd'hui, sans l'espoire qu'on avait auparavant, on a les mêmes conditions en matière de syndicats, qui n'aide pas du tout à abattre cette situation.
En plus, aux alentours de 2000, une loi sur les employés intérimaire a été promulgée, ce qui a crée la concurrence dans le marché des actifs, entraînant la baisse de salaire pour beaucoup de personnes. Aujourd'hui, 40 % des Japonais environs sont des employés intérimaires, et la différence entre les riches et les pauvres se creuse de plus en plus chaque jour.

名前を覚えるの
私はずっと前から名前を覚えるのが下手だ。でも、日本語の名前は特に難しい。英語の名前ほど日本語の名前に慣れていない以外、二つの理由があると思う。一つ目は苗字と下の名前の順序の違いだ。私はよく苗字を呼ばれたから苗字を使う自体が問題じゃない。でも、日本語に熱中している前に覚えた日本語の名前は問題だ。その類の名前は翻訳されたので、覚えた時と実際の順序が逆だ。頭の中で正すのは簡単なはずだと思ったが、なかなか難しいからたまに正しい順序を忘れる。例えば有名な作家や政治家の名前はどっちの方が苗字を忘れる。二つ目は名前の漢字の読み方だ。名前を読むのは慣れていないからどう読めばいいかさっぱり分からない時が多い。それと名前だけに使われる漢字もある。複数の読み方があればどっちがもっと普通か分からない。本を読む時、名前にふりがながないと困る。名前をより覚えるのためにしばしば読むしかないと思う。きっといつか慣れる。他の案は練習のために有名な日本人の名前を使ってフラッシュカードを作る。

Gli animali esotici non sono animali domestici.
Devo enfatizzarlo: Gli animali esotici NON SONO animali domestici. Meritano di essere liberi, vagare per le selve labirintiche del Brasile e perdersi nei prati vasti dell'Africa. Invece di quella prospettiva che vi ho appena presentato, ci imbattiamo in una realtà più funebre: nidiate di pappagalli selvatici in gabbie, adibite e allineate ordinatamente per loro, in modo che i visitatori dei parchi aviari possano gustarle. Un peccato che non sappiano que tali parchi, sebbene sembrino accoglienti, sono infatti degli trabocchetti.
I dipendenti tentano, con netto successo, di raccogliere a loro qualche denaro sotto la guisa della conservazione delle speci , anche se loro stessi sono coscienti del fato che gli introiti prolungherebbero solamente il calvario degli animali. Fanno finta di niente pur di conservare il proprio lavoro.
Che leccapiedi.
E poi, gli autori di spicco (e sono anche ignobili) muovono terra e cielo per ribattere, spremendosi il cervello per inventare delle spiegazioni, che le condizioni in cui vivono quegli sfortunati sono adeguate e che coloro che hanno sporto le denuncie in contro dei proprietari sono solamente dei ficcanaso; fanno tutto quello mentre ricevono tangenti dai grossi colpi. Che fitta per chi luta per la tutela dei diretti degli animali. Che spavalderia allegare qualcosa del genere, quando gli animali ricevono razioni smilzi.
Odio quel formicolio di imbecilli. Sono però soverchiato da lui (è accettabile scrivere “lui” invece di “loro”?)
E poi, quando la verità fosse stata esposta, gli animali sarebbero liberati, ma sarebbero così sgangherati che il gesto benevolo sarebbe in vano, dato che morrebbero non molto dopo.
Il maltratto non può diventare un vezzo della razza umana. Mi raccomando, smettete di praticarlo .

Describing an illustration
The diagram illustrates the mechanism of generating electricity with water. In total, this process includes three different stages. While the water of a sea evaporates, clouds start to formate. After it starts to rain, the water will fill a specific reservoir which is build with a dam that collects the water over a certain area. For the second stage, this water is connected to two other buildings. When the valve opens, the water starts to circle between these three buildings and constructions. The flowing water turns on the Turbine, which generates the eletricity with high voltage cables. After that, the water flows to the third building where the Pump pumps the water up to the Reservior again. The last step is about to transport the electricity with high voltage cables to a transformer station. From that point, the electricity will be distributed between different buildings by underground cables. For example, these buildings could be hospitals, schools or other places that are connected with these undergroud cables.

Should historical important buildings be protected by law?
*Little mock test *
Many nations own historicaly protected buildings by law, but is this really necessary or should the protection by law be banished for building new buildings to offer more living-places? To answer that, this essay will discuss that question, summarize the arguments and give a short opinion.
The importance of protecting these buildings differs depending on the building. Due to the historical identity of every nation, the protection of these buildings are important in general. However, it is necessary to differ between buildings with big historical impact, compared to them with a little. If they had played a historicaly important role in the history, they should completely be protected by law. On the contrary houses with little historical impact should be treated differently. They could still be protected, but the government could set new laws.
For instance, the government could set the requirements for moving in these houses lower. With this, more people could get the opportunity of moving in such houses. Second, laws for modernizing these buildings could be improved as well. While it could still be important to protect the historical character of these buildings, little modernizations could help to improve the living conditions.
In total, history has a big influence on current situations and the identity of a nation. By destroying historcal important buildings, history could also be vanished at some day. Even though more people search for houses, it is not a solution to destroy old worthful buildings. This problem should be solved by the government by improving the laws.

Mock exam - writing
I have a language test in the next days. This is a mock exam. The first task is about to describe 2 different charts and the second was about to discuss about a given opinion.
Task 2: "In many countries children are engaged in some kind of paid work. Some people regard this as completely wrong, while others consider it as valuable work experience, important for learning and taking responsibility."
Task 1:
The bar chart gives information about the number of Japanese tourism outside of Japan between 1985 and 1995 and the graph below shows the relation in percentage of Japanese tourists travelling to Australia in the same years.
The share of Japanese people travelling abroad increases in general. While the number was by 5 million in 1985 it increased up to 15 million until 1995. Although the number increased in general over the years, it fluctuated at specific points. The share constantly rose until 1990, however, it decreased a little for the following year.
The graph has similar movements compared to the bar chart above. Even though the share of Japanese rose in general, it decreased from 5% to almost 4% in 1989 to 1990, and in contrast to the first chart, also a little from 1994 to 1995. While the slope was stronger in the first half, it is a little bit weaker in second half.
Task 2:
Should children work? While some call that completely wrong, others say collecting working expierience supports their mental growth. To provide an answer this essay will consider adavantages and disadvantages, and discus why children should not work.
If children work during their childhood they are able to collect worthful working expierience and learn to act responsible. Furthermore, they can learn to appreciate money. Indeed they develop a better feeling of the worth of money. For instance, not working children could compared to working children buy more sweets, toys or other things working peple could see as money waste in comparission for the needed working time.
In comparission to the supportive perspective others see that as a big mistake. Due to stay concentrated in school, they should not work in their free time. Even though they can collect working expierience, it is more important to let them meet or play with friends when they do not have to go to school. Improvements in their social skills with other children should not be underestimated. Additionally, the threat of falling behind in school increases if they work after it.
In conclusion, the advantages to work do not overweight the disadvantages for the explained reasons. The threat of losing the focus in school or a lack of developed social skills are to big, which is why children should not work during their childhood.

11. Les cohabitations entre une personne âgée et un-e étudia
Avec le progrés dans le domaine médical, les gens vivent plus longues, surtout dans les pays développés, comme le Japon. En plus, il y a de moins en moins de naissance chaque année. Donc, le problème du viellissement de la population s'aggrave, surtout qu'il y a plus de seniors qui vivent seuls. D'un autre côte, le loyer de ville devient de plus en plus cher et ce n'est pas très abordable par les jeunesses. Pour résoudre ces problème, l'idée de cohabitation est née ! Mais est-ce que c'est un scénario gagnant-gagnant ?
D'abord, ça la rend service à tout le mode : pour les seniors, ils ne sont plus seuls mais ont de la compagnie, ce qui est rassurant pour eux. C'est aussi bien pour la santé mentale en avant quelqu'un avec qui parle. Et pour les jeunes, ils peuvent trouver un logement assez confortable pour un prix très modéré. En cohabitant avec un senior, ils peuvent apprendre beaucoup, que ce soit l'expérience de vie ou encore la pratique inter-personnelle. Donc, ça peut être bénéfique pour tous les parties.
Cependant, il y a une grande possibilité d'avoir des conflicts tous les jours. Étant donné qu'il y a un grand écart de leur âge et de leur histoire, c'est facile d'avoir différent pointe de vue sur le même sujet, surtout dans le domaine politique. Et ça peut avoir un grand problème.
De plus, leurs horaires de vie sont différentes. Les jeunes se jouent souvent tard de la nuit mais les seniors dorment toujours tôt. Ça peut donc créer des ennuis pour les seniors.
En outre, il y a des risque d’intrusion dans la vie de l'un et de l'autre s'ils ne gardent pas un minimum de distances. Et c’est difficile de définir ce distance. Par conséquent, ça peut être inconfortable pour tous les deux.
D'après mon propre expérience de vivre avec mes grandparents, la cohabitation n'est pas si simple et pas toujours si sympas. Mais comme ils sont mes proches, je peut accepter les inconvénients. Pourtant, pour habiter avec les autres seniors, c'est difficile, non ?

A trip by train
Some years ago, when I was young, I done a travel to Hastings by train to see this famous battlefield in the south of england. When I went down i the station, I still remember a pleasant smell of the air to humid ground. Now, when I smell something similar, I always remember that trip to Hasting.

Anger
This morning, my father told me to wait him at the corner. When I opened the car door, I saw a woman sitting on the right side. So I went to the left side to put down my luggage. When I closed the door and went to the shotgun seat, the car left. Yep, it left without me. I was a little confused at first, I thought that maybe my father want to change a place to let me in. However, the car just left quickly. I spoke loudly to ask my father stop, but I failed. Then I ran after it fast, but failed either. I went to the gate and called my father.
He went back to pick me up a few minutes later. I was so angry that I accused him of careless. But my father contradicted angrily that he thought I was in the car because he heard the sound of door closing. The woman sat in the rear said that she also considered I had gotten in because she also heard the sound of door closing, when she was having a nap. I realized that he would never admitted his mistake. As for he was driving, I didn't want to make him angry, so I told him that it was all my fault. Then he became quiet.
Then I went to school, I found three boys were absent. I called for their parents, one of them replied that they arrived very early, the others didn't answer the phone. A few minutes later, there were about ten students stood in front of the teaching building with the teaching leaders. They were stopped bucause of late for class. When they went upstairs, I asked them why they were late. They all went to the dormitory first, one of them arrived school at 07:43, while they were asked arrive before 07:40. So, his grandpa lied. I punished them for cleaning classroom for two weeks. Then I told the incident in the parents chatting group. I had redeclared the arriving time for more than three times, but some parents still didn't take their responsibility, what they did was bad for the whole class.
During the second class, I receive many photos about my students who were just standing in the school yard when they should had cleaning the yard. They spent a class there when the other students were all having class. It was the third time they were accused of default in cleaning their clean zone. What should I say? I didn't know. It is so boring of teaching them.
I played drums in the afternoon. I ran 2 km at night. I need to relax more.
