4.Which story did you like best, and why?
'Special Clay' is.
I read the story while feeling excited.
How does Emilio recover from 'Difficult'? What action does Emilio do after the car collides? How does Emilio help Mrs McFee?
I was impressed though he respected her very much.
8.Do you prefer reading several short stories or one longer one? Why/ why not?
I prefer reading several short stories to one longer story. A short story can be easily read.
English language school in the heart of the Japanese Alps, and English language learners sharing their experiences online. Teachers post regular items about teaching, learning tools, events in the school, their day to day experiences living & working in a foreign country. Students post on whatever takes their fancy - book reports, festivals in home towns, postcards from business trips etc. A little Brit of England in the guts of Japan!
Hi Takeho,
ReplyDeleteThis book looks really interesting! The short stories sound fun....but your answer (no.8) is also very short!
