Thanks! Your sentences are always helpful. There was a mistake in the 3rd sentence. "If" should have been "unless".
Very clever of Yu-chan! Was she teasing you, or did she believe you could grow taller? I believe that she thought I could grow taller.
Hello,Ellie I can understand what you say. I myself am generous, sometimes so generous that I am taken advantage of by others. I usually put up with until finally I give up and saver ties with such terrible people and never turn around. I just went through such bad experience and quit. What a pity! Best Regards, HIroko
Thanks for your tips. I didn't know the phrase, 'remove the blinders.' Maybe I might have my own blinders on something without even noticing. I'd like to use this phrase sometime.
Thank you very much for explaining the differences among close words.
Thank you for your advice. I'll use "my" more to make my sentence smoother.
Hi, Ellie! Thank you for your comments as always. As for my thought about what benefits can be expected from improving it, I thought that my last sentence could cover it and if I added one more sentence, it might be redundant or overlap. I am looking forward to having your lesson soon! Best regards, Tinkle
Thank you for your corrections. I always learn a lot from your advice.

Thank you for the correction. I’m surprised about you knowing about the typhoon. It’s alright here. I hope you have a good day. Best, Takemura
Dear Ellie, Thank you for your comments and alternative expressions. Every time I see your comments of "Well done," I feel happy and encouraged a lot because I feel my progress in writing, even though it is difficult for me to realize my improvement by myself. As for "Therefore, I am reluctant to greet business partners nicely..." When I created this sentense, I think "I am reluctant to greet nicely" is the best way to express my feeling that I don't like to but have to do so, considering how importnat this business client is for me. When I saw your revised version, however, I thought it is more understandable to say that I am willing to greet them for the sake of my successful business. I am looking forward to having your lessons soon! Best regards, Tinkle
Hi, Ellie, Thank you for your comments and alternative expressions as always. What I wanted to express by the phrase of "jobs which can be done all along the line in the boilerplate way" was"jobs which can be mostly done just by following specified manuals with little discretion" When we refer to the specified basic form of a contract, we call it "a boilerplate contract." I used "in the boilerplate way" as this nuance in my essay. Unfortunately, It doesn't seems to work. Sorry for confusing you. I am looking forward to having your lessons soon! Tinkle
“Where is Riko now?” Riko came back to Japan with my family. She lives in our city.
Hi, Ellie, Thank you for your quick response and comments. I don't think that the majority of my customers may opt for the free one because most of our visitors want to keep pure-blooded young dogs and cats rather than unpedigreed adult one. In addition, if mass communication feature our shop's social activity on TV, more customers will visit us and some of them buy our pets! I am looking forward to having your lessons soon! Best regards, Tinkle
