Students studying abroad do their best to horn their English skills every day. No way you can be better at English if engaged with it only a few hours per week.
>>53 Those studying abroad cram every day to improve their English. It is for sure that English learners who have just several hours of study per week don't improve their language skills much.
I'm betting you guys aren't fluent. You all seem like college students or something who just learned English words and grammar rules (only in schools and never studied abroad).
I can basically tell who's English is good and who's English is bad when I read their sentences, so I always feel kind of weird that there are lots of people who can't do the same, such as ｽｯﾌﾟguy.
When I was 18, a tabloid published a picture of me smoking. The freshman who sold the picture to the tabloid had never shown up to the school and dropped out after a while.

I got the point later,these English texts are a lot of selling in series that's right ,once got a Big sale they sell many times those copying cuz it make a big money
>>154 I found out later that there are so many books published in this English textbook series. No wonder. As the first book sold well, they didn't have any reason to stop making one after another. It's low hanging fruit.
This English textbook has a lot of follow-on ones, which I didn't know of until later, though. A matter of course; once a book sells well they'll put out sequels to it endlessly to make easy money.
>>153 I noticed later that this English textbook is just only one among many books of a series. There is no surprise. The most lucrative way is, once a certain book is successful, to bring out similar books one after another.
There's not a single day we don't hear news of coronavirus. Few people goes outside without wearing a mask. I wonder if the event will be held as scheduled. I hope you are alright. Take care!

I was at work when I gave a forceful shove to a heavy cart full of goods and crashed a window pane. I got told off by the boss, but breaking a sheet of glass means placing an order with some local vendor, benefiting the economy of our town, right?
>>195 While at work, I hit and broke window glass by shoving a cart with a lots of merchandises. My boss was furious at me, but I'd say I did something good for the economy by making my employer spend the money for the repair.

Several infections occurred where the show is to take place. I had planned to go there with a friend, but she quit. So I'm afraid I have to decline to buy the ticket you offered. I will go to the show alone if it is not cancelled, however. I hope you find someone who accepts your offer.

>>219 It's boring to talk with a 21 years old blue color. They have had nothing to make any efforts on in their lives. All of them haven't had any club activities and had studied. Just doing a TV game in their house. It's disgustingly boring to talk with them. They are not sociable, and they only have narrow thinking. They are inferior in bring their idea into action. They don't have any understanding of politics and economy.
>>225 (相手の名前), We are sorry to inform you that our office hires only Japanese nationals. Panasonic, our affiliated office in Hiroshima, hires non-Japanese, so you are welcome to apply for the office.
>>219 It's boring to talk with you. You act like to be intelligent talking politics and economics. You brag your salary. You can't live without blue color people.But you look down those people. They hate a man like you.
The 21-year-old factory worker is not fun to talk to. The likes of him have little experience of doing something as best they can. They neither joined clubs nor studied hard at school, and now do nothing but play video games at home. You can absolutely not get excited to converse with them, as they are inward-looking, tunnel-visioned, inactive, and ignorant about politics and economics.
>>225 you should have known better than to try and enter into our society considering your ineptness I sincerely wish your kind will one day be wiped off the face of this planet
We hesitate to say but our group is only for Japanese. Nevertheless, ---- family (which is) located in Hiroshima prefecture enrols many members who aren't Japanese. So if you don't mind, why not becoming its member?

>>235 It's too late to notice after you became thirty. You will regret yourself who didn't make any effort during your youth. Seeing overwhelming differences between university graduates or skilful engineers, you will realise your inadequacy painfully.

He always acts only considering his convenience. If our executives misconstrue him like active, go-to guy and promote him, I'll storm into the office and make it retracted with with all I've got.
>>268 What he does is always for his own good, but somehow this attitude makes the management think he is a positive, leader-type person. If this leads to his promotion, I will go directly talk to the company's executives and try my best to stop it.
Don't get fooled; he does something only if it does him good. If the higher-ups take him to be an energetic worker with leadership worthy of a pay raise, I will storm into the corner office and pull no punches to correct them!

>>451 It has been said for quite some time, and suppressed each time by CCP. Is it likely for a country like China, which put its own benefits ahead of anything to issue a ban on foreign travel out of concern for the others, to whom it has never given a damn from the very beginning? Isn't it more plausible to think the whole idea is their trying to cover up biological weapons in the name of preventing the spread of infection?
>>451 Although it has been referred for years, China has covered it up in each case. To begin with they have its own idea such as "I do n’t care what happens to other people" I wonder they Issue an overseas travel ban willingly I would say under a name of preventing the spread of infection they would have been coverin up biological weapon

Thoroughbreds are sold by auction. The highest price ever bid for a racehorce was five hundred million yen. It was hammered after Satomi, one of the last two remaining bidders, gave way to Kondo, who was apparently willing to go further.
Although we're having tough days because of COVID-19, I'm sure there will be a light at the end of the tunnel soon. Please take care of yourself. I'm looking foward to arriving my order.

I paid via epay a week ago but my account status has not changed from Pending Payment. I received a confirmation email last time when I ordered a few years ago, so I am contacting you to ask a confirmation. I also attach a capture of the payment screen.

In a certain country, when the government identifies and locates those who it finds are so annoying to itself or people in power as to be listed as targets of assassination, it arrests them in secrecy and feeds them to a bunch of hyenas made hungry. The animals devour their bones as well as flesh, leaving no evidence.
>>497 In a country, when those in power find a person who is inconvenient to them so much so as to make them wish to assassinate him, they secretly abduct and throw him into a herd of a few starving hyenas. As hyenas can even eat bones, no evidence will be left.

Hyenas are prone to bite off the bellies of their preys, and also stick their face into them and eat the flesh , visceral organs , and so on. So its blood is scattered on their face. That being said, perhaps they don't mind it at all.
Hyenas bite open their prey's abdomen and eat its organs and flesh putting their heads into its body. So their faces get covered in blood as much as the victim, but that doesn't seem to matter to them.

Coexistence with machines and a change in work in the 2030s
With automation, there will be fewer jobs in all industries except construction. New jobs that do not require physical labor will increase to replace them.
A three-day weekend becomes a norm, but it will require a system for learning new skills where one of three days will be spent in vocational training or at a university at the expense of the company or the government.
In the age of 100 years of life, people will work slightly fewer hours per week as a whole, but will work until they are much older.
There will be a decrease in jobs across all industries but construction as automation advances, while new kinds of jobs free from physical labor will increase in their place.
A four-day work week will be the norm along with a program in which workers spend at least one day per week learning new skills at job training centers or colleges at the expense of the government and companies.
With life expectancy approaching 100, people will work a bit less hours per week but remain in the workforce until a rather older age.
>>604 I visited the ramen restaurant where Yamada-san worked, but the noodles easily broke off every time I grasped them with chopsticks.
What are you talking about? That can't happen! I suppose a trainee boiled the noodles for the first time, overboiled them, and served them to you by accident.
The other day I ate at the ramen shop Yamada recommended, but my noodles were too fragile to pick up with chopsticks.
Really? No kidding? I guess your ramen was that soft because it happened to be prepared by an apprentice who, having never cooked noodles for customers until then, boiled them too long.

>>650 I'm still new to the daily task, and I'm willing to go on with it for a while until the task becomes a routine, being thankful to my mother for suggesting it to me.
>>650 It's been a short while since I started this routine, but having the lessons from my mother in my mind, I will keep this routine up a bit longer until it becomes a habit.
Though only recently have I started to do this as a part of my routine, I think I owe it to my mother, who advised me to do it, to do my best at least for some period of time to make it stick.
It's only recently that I had begun doing daily routine that my mother had advised. As a token of appreciation, I will stick to it until I form a habit of doing it.
Not only a culprit who stole the bag is one to blame but also the woman who had left it unattended in the bicycle basket. It contained her wallet and smartphone.
I'm regretful. Be that as it may, I think it's my own problem for which I'm also regretful and which I must resolve myself that I don't look regretful while I'm saying I'm regretful.

「有名な映画の邦題のせいで "North by Northwest" の意味を『北北西』だと思っている日本人がいるようですが、実は、それは『北北西』の表現として標準的とは言えず、『ノースウェスト機で北方へ』の意義であることは容易に想像がつくと思います。事実、クレジットでおわかりのとおり、ノースウェスト航空は、スポンサの一となっています」
「『自粛（あるいはマスク）警察』同様に『ウィルス・菌警察』もいますが、確かに菌は生物、ウィルスは『化合物の混合物』で、一個体のサイズも体積比で百万倍もの違いがあり、菌との混同はいかがなものかと思うものの、『ばい菌』はよいのではないでしょうか。なぜなら『ばい菌』は幼児に対して『ばっちいもの』の意味だからです。事実、米国でも幼児に対して『ばっちいもの』の意味で "a germ"（むいむい（虫））を使います。虫に限らずです」
Due to famous japanese film there are some japanese people define "North by Northwest" as "north-northwest" Yet,you can't call it as standard expression actually I dare say you can tell easily that means"Northwest fleet to the nortｈ "
The Japanese title given to the famous movie North by Northwest misleads some Japanese people into thinking that it means the same as north-northwest, but if you know that it is hardly used as a point of the compass, you'll easily see that it implies "flying north by Northwest airlines," as proved by the fact that the company is credited in the film as a sponsor.
Besides pro-staying-home (or pro-mask) vigilantes, there're also bacterium/virus vigilantes. Given that bacteria are genuine living things while viruses are mere composites of organic compounds and a million times as small in volume, you shouldn't confuse them, but I think you can use the word germs to refer to viruses, as infants (as with those in the US) use it to mean something unhygienic including bugs.
As long as we live in it like microbes living in the body, we need to coexist with each other so as to avoid a dog eat dog world. We can only live according to our nature to the extent that we don't tear up the fabric of binding ties.
Humans, as a life form, have to strive for self-preservation nonstop, because, as the free energy principle has it, it is necessary for living things to always minimize the difference between internal and external entropy. However, in the new age of spiritualism that is to come when we transcend the desire to preserve and sustain our own lives, we will be no longer the same creatures that have been raised on this planet Earth.
Emotions are products of the brain. Our hunter-gatherer ancestors were afraid of inevitable death following alienation. Since then humans as social animals have developed theory of mind and various emotions, including kindness, gratitude, sympathy, compassion, and love. Even these seemingly higher-level emotions are also part of the evolved human instincts.
When we cease to be living things, we might turn into something dry, machine-like, cruel, and cold-blooded by our present standards, as the result of our sense of values instinctively hardwired getting abandoned as meaningless.
