Un homme d'affaires s'est précipité pour arrive à sa réunion à l'heure. Comme il ouvrait la porte d'entrée de son bureau, il a réalisé que il a oublié d'apporter ses clés! Heureusement, il connissait que la réceptionniste y était, donc il a frappe sur la porte et la réceptionniste lui a gentiment ouvert la porte. Ils ont dit "Bonjour!" à ensemble et l'homme s'est mis ascendrer en courant les éscaliers pour trouver la salle de réunion. "J'éspere que je ne sois pas trop plus tard!" dit l'homme.
Il a regardé à sa montre et a réalisé que...Aujourd'hui était Mercredi!

Fa quatre anys vaig fer una expedició a Mount Logan, la segona muntanya més alta del Amèrica del Nord, i la més alta de Canadà. És al nord de Canadà, al província de Yukon, a prop de la frontera entre Canadà y Alaska.
La muntanya és al mig d'un casquet de gel, el més gran que ja existeix afora de les regions polar. Per arribar al peu de la muntanya, vam haver de viatjar amb una avioneta especialitzada que podia aterrar a una glacera, perquè tenia esquís a prop de les rodes.
Era una avioneta petita, només podia carregar el pilot, dos clientes i el seu equipatge. Amb una distancia de 160 quilòmetres del aeròdrom al lloc d'aterrar al peu de la muntanya, cada vol durava dues hores. Erem un grup de sis, tots d'un club d'esquì rando d'Anglaterra.
Per això necessitàvem la major part d'un dia de bon temps per moure tot el equip.
El vol era espectacular. Les llengües de gel són immens. Hi ha glaceres amb fins a 65km de llargada i amb una profunditat al cap de 700m o més. Els científics pensen que el gel al fons del tot tenen 10,000 anys.
Mount Logan també és enorme. No és un piràmide, sembla més un gran tros de pastís. Per fer una circumnavegació de la muntanya, seguint les glaceres al peu (amb esquís, és clar), es necessita dues setmanes. És pensava ser la muntanya més ampla del món.
Quan començàvem baixar amb la avioneta, podíem veure la gran glacera que seguiríem amb esquís per fer la pujada de la muntanya. Quan una glacera fa un canvi de nivell o de direcció, la glaç s'esqueda. Des de l'aire podíem veure clarament els esquerdes, alguns oberts, altres coberts per ponts de neu.
El nostre primer repte sería trobar un camí segur entre els esquedes, escollint només ponts de neu fort. La ruta que semblava tan obvia de l'aire no seria tan facíl encontrar a peu.

Hallo Leute, heute bin ich sehr erschöpft, da ich ein paar Freunde bei einem Umzug geholfen habe. Es ist immer anstrengend, wenn man in einem Umzug helfen muss. Aber meine Freunde haben mich immer geholfen, wenn ich etwas in der Vergangenheit brauchte. Deswegen bin ich heute glücklich, ein guter Freund zu sein.

Bob has missed a significant number of classes; consequently, the principal invites the truant to his office.
"How come you ’ve skipped so many classes?"
" You know, I've calculated my time and realized that I have no time for studies. I need to sleep eight hours a day, which is close to one hundred twenty-two days a year. Weekends take one hundred and four days a year , and summer holidays take around sixty days. I spend an hour at each meal; namely, that’s three hours a day or forty-five days a year. Also, I ’d need at least two hours a day to rest and keep fit, which adds another thirty days. To sum it up, that's approximately three hundred sixty-one days a year, which leaves only four days for school."
However, the principal proves Bob wrong.
The question is: What's wrong with Bob's calculations?

Beaucoup de Coréens croient que les hommes et les femmes ne peuvent devenir amis. Ils croient que si un homme et une femme sont ensemble, on ne peut pas éviter les sentiments romantiques. Donc, beaucoup de Coréens n'aiment pas du tout si leurs petit amis ont des amies qui sont femmes, ou si leurs petite amies ont des amis qui sont hommes. Au début, mon mari aussi l'a cru. Mais comme la plupart de mes amis sont des hommes, je lui ai dit que je vais continuer à faire des choses avec mes amis et s'il ne l'aime pas, il peut chercher une autre copine. Maintenant, il aime bien mes amis et il sait qu'ils n'ont pas d'idées romantiques! Comment pensez-vous? Est-ce que les hommes et les femmes peuvent être simplement amis?

Jag hörde den här nyheten på radio sweden på lätt svenska. Det sändes på tisdagen förra veckan. Det var en inrekes nyhet om sveriges SOS Alarm System. När man behöver hjälp av ambulans, polis eller brandkår, ringer man 112.
Nu ska sverige försöka ett dataprogram med artificiell intelligens att hjälp personalen att förstå vilket problem den som ringer har.
Dataprogrammet ska lyssna och analysera personens ord och röst. Myndigheterna hoppas datorprogrammet ska hjälpa personalen att skicka hjälp snabbare och bättre.
Det ska börja i Jönköping och Halmstad till sommaren.
Jag tycker att programmet är en bra ide eftersom när människor är i panik kan det vara svårt att förstå dem. Jag hoppas det fungerar.

Hallo alle zusammen. Heute schreibe ich meinen 100. Eintrag, das heißt, dass ich seit 100 Tagen jeden Tag einen Eintrag geschrieben habe!
Wenn ich im November begonnen habe, Einträge zu schreiben, hätte ich nicht gedacht, dass ich ein Ziel wie 100 Einträge schreiben schaffen konnte. Ja, ich mache noch viele Fehler beim Schreiben, aber ich fühle mich wie mein Schreiben Niveau deutlich höher ist und selbstverständlich ist jetzt das Lesen von Zeitungen, Bücher, und so weiter auch einfacher.
Ich möchte mich alle Menschen, die mir mit Korrekturen, Tipps, oder freundlichen Worten helfen haben, bedanken. Vor allem meinen Freund Aka, vielen Dank für so viele Korrekturen!
Bis die nächsten 100 Einträge!

Stonehenge is west 140km of London. Stonehenge is located in Salisbury plains. Around Stonehenge wide plains expands in all directions.
What I was most impressed there was to see horizon between sky and land. I have ever seen horizon between sky and sea in Japan, but it was the first time that I saw it.
Archaeologists say Stonehenge was built up around 4000 year ago.
Stonehenge is made up of large stones. The stones with a height of about 5m are arranged like a circle.
In the center of the circle, there're some large stones assembled.
The structure is so sophisticated that some scholars say the day of a solar eclipse can be calculated.
Who and how and why in the world built up those stones has still been veiled in mystery.

My son often tells me that he loves me the most in the world.
It makes me really happy.
In Japan, they say that children finish doing everything as gratitudes for their parents by the age of three.
I don’t think so, because my son who is four and a half years old tells me good things and be nicer day by day. :)
Becoming a mother is a really great thing.
I couldn’t imagine that a little baby loves me all the time no matter what.
I feel he gives me more than I give him.
I hope he grows up to be a thoughtful person.

오늘은 발렌타인데이라서 딸기 생크림 케이크를 만들어 보겠다고 다짐했다. 몇 년 전에 한 번 만들어 봤는데 잘 나왔다. 그래서 이번에도 남편에게 해주고 싶었다. 그런데 지난 번에 그 케이크를 만들었을 때 사용했던 레시피를 찾지 못해서 인터넷으로 다른 레시피를 찾았다.
오늘 아침 케이크를 만들었다. 간단한 레시피에 간단한 재료가 들어갔는데 웬지 뭔가 잘못 나온 것 같다. 케이크가 예상보다 무거운데 향기와 색깔이 좋고 맛도 괜찮은 것 같다.
오후에 마트에 가서 딸기와 생크림, 분당을 샀다. 그 다음에 집에 와서 딸기를 씻고 자른 뒤에 생크림과 분당으로 휘핑크림을 만들었다. 마지막으로, 케이크를 반으로 잘라서 가운데에 휘핑크림과 딸기를 넣은 다음, 위에 휘핑크림을 더 얹고 딸기를 최대한 예쁘게 내려 놓았다. 사실은 케이크가 별로 예쁘지 않은데 내 마음을 담은 케이크다. 남편이 아직 퇴근하지 않았는데 집에 오면 바로 내가 만든 케이크를 보여주고 싶다!

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: After high school, students should have at least one year to work or travel. It is better than attending university straight away.
When it comes to whether or not students are better to have at least one year to work or travel before attending university. Some people suggest that after graduated from high school, students should go to colleges straight away. Other argue that the opposite is true. There is possibly some truth to both arguments, but, in my opinion, I agree with the statement offered in the prompt.
To begin with, in order to develop students’ interests accurately, having a work or a travel experience is able to assist them. Only through experiencing real life by working or traveling, can students observe the things they truly love. Think of a student majors in Science; however, he does not know what it is before entering the school. What will happen? He may be find out that he dislikes the subject, but it is too late to change a major in the end. Is not he wasting time? Usually, most students choose their majors since their parents force them to. So, it is better to have at least one year to work or travel which students are able to find their interests on the field they like, what if they notice that they do not interest in the field they chose first, they can change it right away until they found one. Therefore, the experience from working or traveling helps them to choose a major they desire for and make a great effort on it.
In addition, through work or traveling can fertilize students’ life experiences. To be more concise, everything they learn and anything they observe from the area of work for or places they travel to, it will extend their life widths. A case of in point, students have opportunities to travel more than one place, they explore different cultures, histories, even making friends with people who from all over the world. They learn knowledge from these which aids them to become a person with distinctive perspective. Thus, they are able to standout in their professional field.
Of course, some people might say that it is essential to students to attend to colleges straight away, since they have to study continually instead of wasting time to travel or work. For instance, in most Asian countries, parents do not allow their children to go traveling one year after high school. It not only disappoint their expectancies but not be accepted by traditional concept as well. Likewise, I am more favor of students should have at least one year to work or travel before going to colleges. It either helps them develop their interests or enriches their life-experiences. Hence, providing students a chance to work or travel before attending colleges straight away, it will definitely benefit to their life after all.

Am Samstag werden meine Mama und ich nach Seattle fliegen. Seattle ist die nördlichste Großtadt USAs, die nur zwei Stunden weg von der Grenze Kanadas ist. Sie ist besonders berühmt für Kaffee (Starbucks war hier gegründet), Meeresfrüchte, und die Landschaft. Wir planen, um der Pike Place Markt und die Allnadel zu besuchen. Ich bin darüber froh, weil ich kürzlich in der Schule viel zu tun hatte. Meine Mama und ich sind gespannt auf entspannen und Besichtungen machen.

The audio lecture I listened to and the reading passage that I read have opposing views about offering some practical solutions to slow down the problem of sensitive frog populations. Firstly, the reading mentions that frog populations extremely reduce since they are being harmed by pesticides, which are used by farmers to prevent insects from damaging farm crops. If laws prohibit the farmers using the harmful pesticides, it would solve the problem of declining frog populations. On the other hand, the listening asserts that the laws are not economically practical or fair. The farmer rely o the pesticides to decrease crop losses and stay competitive on the markets. If farmers followed the strict regulations, they would sever disadvantage compare to farmers in other areas. They would lose more crops and have lower yield than competing farms.
Secondly, the author presents that a fungus deadly affects frog populations as a result of frogs absorb water, fungus infects they die of dehydration. Researchers propose a treatment that kill the fungus with heat, it would protect sensitive frog populations from infection. Yet, the speaker from the listening passage indicates that the treatment offered by researchers should apply individually to each frog. Using them on a large scale is significantly difficult. Moreover, the treatment does not prevent the frogs passing the fungus on their offsprong. The treatment have to be applied again and again individually, so it is complicated and expensive.
Thirdly, the reading states that human activities, such as excessive water use, threaten frogs’ natural habitats, since they lay their eggs in water and depend on wetland habitats. If the key water habitats could be protected, many frogs would recover. In contrast, the lecturer argues that the solution offered by reading is not save frog populations. The real threat is global warming. It contributes to disappearing of many water and habitats, causing entire species to go extinct. Thus, forbidding humans from using water is not prevent the habitats changes caused by global warming.
