1. Speaking of which, when I told my students what you tipped me off, they showed me the aha expression in nodding. I'm not sure if they have put it into action, though.
2. I heard that they purposefully inserted phrases that are not used on a daily basis in movies. They also use slang that boosts the sense of rhythm or the rhetorical expression we see in novels. Therefore, when it comes to preparing for the entrance exam, I have my doubt that movies are good as a material for listening practice.
Did you just say Japan is crap? you wanna pick a fight? gimme fuckin break, man! you bastard! How dare you can discriminate against someone? give me one good reason Japan is crap. where the fuck are you from? you really piss me off!
I bought the most expensive stuff I've ever bought this summer, a clarinet. I used to play the clarinet in the wind music club at junior-high. I had fun out of it practicing for school events or competitions the November of my third grade. There was a time I wanted to give it up, but I managed to stick to it till the end. That gives me a great deal of confidence. I had nothing that I wanted to do at the beginning of my high school life. I had no objectives that I aspired to achieve, either. My music teachere in junior-high advised me that I keep playing the clarinet. Convinced that I would never be happier without the clarinet, I made up my mind to join a brass band and purchase a clarinet. That was the first time I spent my savings I saved for 16 years. I will never forget this purchase. I will keep playing the clarinet.
As I saw a performance of "Karate" immediately after my starting campus life in a university. I joined in the club with my longing interest. Since my graduation, I still keep a long and cordial friendship with the same year colleagues whom I met in the club.
