MR4: Monsters Inc.


 I like animation movies very much, so I would like to introduce one of them today. The title is “Monsters, Inc”. This movie was made by Disney & Pixar, so many people must know it. As its title suggests, this movie is set in a monsters company. The main characters are Sulley and Mike. Sully is big and a blue monster, and Mike is small and a green monster. Mike works as Sulley’s partner and he is one eyed. They make a good combination. In the story, monsters incorporated gathers children’s screams and converts them into energy for monster city. I thought it is a very interesting idea. Just to know the setting, we want to watch it again, I think.

 

There is a rule in such monsters city. It is that monsters must not take children into monsters city. That’s why monsters think children are dangerous, but one day, an incident happens. When Mike does overtime, he finds a little girl. If the Children Detection Agency finds about it, the city into a panic, so Mike and Sulley bring her to their apart for a while. Sulley is afraid of her, but looking at her sleeping face, he has a feeling of wonder. What will they do?

 

The most memorable scene is when Sulley becomes attached to the girl. He takes a liking to her. He breaks the law nobody else has ever broken “Don’t love a human child”. I was very moved by the scene. This scene is able to stir someone’s emotions, I think. Monsters Inc depicts the friendship between monsters and a human well. As I see it, many people will like this movie by the sly description. According to some movie, the sequel to Monsters, Inc will be released in the near future. To watch them, how about trying to set foot in the monsters world?

My favorite scene is when the house flies. The scene moves us deeply. First, this movie is a Pixar animation film. I saw this movie with my friends at the library quite recently, so I remember I was impressed very much. To tell the truth, my friends Bora were moved to tears. Return to my main topic, I like the scene when the house flies. The main character, Carl Fredricksen, he was met a girl Ellie when he was a boy. They were married later years. They were living happily but Ellie was dead when she gets old. Carl was grieved very much. I think that we can be deeply impressed with this scene too. We must be moved to tears. In fact I was close to tears when I saw the scene. Return to the story, he was promised Ellie to go to legendary waterfall “Paradise falls”  with together, so he makes his house fly to fulfill the promise. This scene is the most impressive scene in the movie, I think. In fact Bora also was moved to tears by seeing the scene. He is famous for easily moved to tears among us. I think that this scene is very important. Everybody mast has memory or image of the scene remaining in their mind if watch the movie. As I see it, this movie wants to tell importance of the love of a husband and wife. Of course, it is a love of Carl and Ellie. In addition, we can feel importance of to live life too. If there are people who have never watched the movie, I want them to watch it and take away a new appreciation of life from this movie. I am grateful to meet a fantastic movie like this. I think you can form no idea of how amusing this is, unless you see for yourself. Don’t miss it!

Essay 2-03a: Language learning histories

I want everyone to know my history about language this time by all means, so I will write about it from now. A lot of people use many languages now. Some of them can speak some languages. They are called bilingual, trilingual. It has become quite common now. I have interest with them. Now then, how was such languages style formed? I want to write my thinking first. I think that they are affected by surrounding environment. For example, if someone live a foreign long time, he will learn the country language. The influence of surrounding environment on people is great, I think. Moreover I think people were affected by their parents for language, because when they were babies, they often heard voice of parents. Parents language must affect their child directly. How is language style formed, there are a number of possible causes for this. So next paragraph will mention that how my language style were formed in my life.

First I will write about my mother tongue, Japanese. I have learned Japanese before I was born, because I think that I was hearing Japanese when I was in the womb. I expect that my parents were talking to me. I have touched Japanese since that time. I was happy. Then I was born. I think I was affected by many people much for language when I was a baby. For example, my father, mother, grandmother, grandfather and so on. They talked to me much, I remember that. I gradually remembered Japanese in this way. Then I entered the nursery school when I was two. I learned elementary Japanese there. Japanese is fantastic.

Then I entered elementary school when I was six. I studied basic of Japanese there in some way. For example, singing a song, writing a letter, hearing Japanese, and so on. I remember that Japanese teacher was a kind teacher, so I liked Japanese. I used many Japanese in conversation with friends, teacher, so I learned how to use Japanese. I liked talking with my friends very much. Friends is important.

Next I want to write about English. I entered junior high school when I was twelve. I had touched English there first. I studied English as second language. I liked English soon, because I felt that English is cool. But I didn’t like English teacher, because his pronunciation was strange. I wanted to speak English well. My English grade was very good every year, because I liked it. Then I advanced high school. I liked English class there too. It was fun for me to take the class. Grade of high school English was good too, so I am in English department now. English is fantastic.

I learned Spanish too. I have studied Spanish since I was a freshman. Spanish is used in all over the world now, so I decided to take the class. Spanish is very difficult language, I think. I felt it was complicate. But I did my best, my Spanish grade was A. I was glad very much. Moreover Spanish teacher, H.Okamura was interesting man. I think that any person who is Kumamoto Gakuen University know him. He was sometimes kind, sometimes strict. We were always talked about him. We still remember the time we spent together with him. I can speak Spanish little now. Spanish is fantastic.

Finally I will write conclusion. I like foreign language so much, so I want to learn other language more. Korean, Chinese, German, for example. Then I want to communicate with all over the world people to use many languages. Let me say anyway. People learn from experience. That’s all.
