    Thank you for correcting my English and giving me many alternative sentences. I was also shocked to know that Congo relies on many foods from overseas. Furthermore, the fact that many civilians were killed was also shocked! I hope these problems will solve in the near future. Kind regards,

    Dear Ellie san Thank you for telling me a good expression; 'Money can pull a lot of strings'. With what is the end of a string connected? An idea that one end is linked with an object for manipulation and the other is a closed door, this concept is quite interesting to me, because these two things look to me different things. Manipulation seems to me a control or governing, opening is to me making free and releasing. In any way, money has a wide power. —————

    I meant that I won't go to USJ finally. "Go to USJ " is not the real event for me, so I think I should use subjunctive mood "couldn't"...

    Dear Teacher Ellie sama Thank you so much for your descriptions of your impressions . >I would like to elaborate a bit more on the following part of your sentence: >'regard politician's works as dirty works'. I think I feel in the same way. Some various factors are closely intertwined. In my opinion, one of them is historical inheritance. There had been, until Meiji Emperor period, about one hundred and fifty years ago, double layers in political power. One is Tennou Emperor, the other was Samurai Shougun. Prestige and authority are with Tennou, and political power is with Shougun. Women from an upper-class family had been involved in the Tennou layer. They thought that they were naturally given their status as the result of a struggle for political power by Shougun layer. They thought that they did not have to fight for the status. This is different from other democratic nations where many rights including status had been won by struggle by themselves. The inheritance is the mentality that their prestigious status ought to be given by Shougun layer, who struggle for political power as politicians. Consequently, they think politician's work is a matter of another world of a struggle for power. Thank you for telling me many interesting words and phrases, which sound me like native adult mature words and phrases. "its stellar rank in education" "their family background" "come from an upper-class family" , which I hesitate to say. "This is especially true if ----" " mentality" " consist of two aspects" "this message has yet not sunk in" "been fully accepted" "the female population" "illicit love affairs" "to focus on gossipy news" "corruption" "something tangible about it" "women have their turn" "the idea of choosing a political career" "usher this opportunity for women" -------------------

    "The notion described above sounds odd, and it goes to show you how desperate the company really is." I like this. The sentence that I wrote was just like an elementary school kids' level, but yours sounds more like adults' I need to focus on the time, when the event happens in an article in question. "be worth" has to be followed by ~ing. I will remember that. "notion" "and more specifically," "heroic efforts" "a letdown" I like them. You kindly gave me two examples of sentence. That helps my study a lot. Thank you, I understand you have spent some time to write both. I'm always happy to study with you. See you Yoko

    Dear Teacher Ellie san Thank you for your nice corrections. #They have neither brains nor nerve systems, ++++++ I see. This kind of negative expression is difficult for me to come up with. In Japanese there is no such kind of expression. #These findings made me turn anew to plans with greater assurance and a confirmation of my own belief about them. #These findings make me look at plants with new eyes, sure of my own convictions and beliefs about them since they confirm my own theories. @Thank you for your understandings and nice sentences. I do not actually hear the ultrasonic sounds but sense them like an aura when meeting someone. I grow green leaves, Korean lettuce, and radish.

    Thank for your advices, and your kind comments. It was difficult to express what I wanted to say. I should need to have more vocabularies. I think it was difficult to you as well to understand what I meant, but you understood it and gave me good advices. Also, you gave me tender comment about my disease. You cheered me up. Thanks very much. Have a nice day, too! Saori
