Jarret Allen

Jarret Allen

            Jarret Allen is so different from other N.B.A players. Most N.B.A players have their own shoe or clothes, but he does not. He was chosen by the Nets in draft as the cornerstone of the rebuilding project. His playing was well, and he was only 20 years old. However, he was not aware of elite youth basketball. When his brother and Allen played basketball in church, they noticed that they were clueless about organized basketball.  He could get lots of money from playing basketball, but he did not use the money for basketball. He just cares of playing basketball, family and doing what he loves to do.

Q What do you think what he has been doing?

excursion

Do you think every school should invest in school excursions?

            These days, a large amount of schools tend to invest school excursions. I think it is important to go out somewhere with friends and teachers. There are some advantages and disadvantage as well in excursions.

            Hanging out as school excursions, people can be feeling refreshed even if they get exhausted. They can speak deeply each other while they are walking, having lunch and in the car. In addition, getting close their distance, they could get some information which they do not learn topic. For example, whenever they have questions around them, teachers always help or give some clue to get it. It is not only asking their riddle, but they can be more aggressive to know that they do not know things.

            After finishing the excursion, people could be lazy, and it takes a few days to be diligent. However, they can talk about the excursion which is amazing. They make sure what they learned in it.

            Investing school excursion helps decreasing the distance between students and teacher, also students each other. We should go out and have fun to focus on studying.

The Assassination of John F. Kennedy

The Assassination of John F. Kennedy

Hiroki Oishi

            John F. Kennedy, who worked as the 35^th President of the United States was killed in November 22, 1963. He is also known as the man who made effort for disarmament in the U.S. According to articles, two bullets struck his neck and head while he was going on a stumping tour in Texas. The assassin is Oswald but there are a lot of mysterious point in the assassination. Some researchers said that it was impossible to commit murder. Moreover, he was killed two days before his court. Many people belied that Oswald killed Kennedy, but anyone haven’t been revealing the whole truth.

            In my opinion, he might have been killed by the other person. The reason why I think is Oswald could not have killed Kennedy in his place. Furthermore, Kennedy was gunshot various angle, so many bullets left inside the car. I believed that Oswald just may have been jobbed by the real culprit.

We can use the relative clause such as who, which, that, whose. The relative clause making a complex sentence can work as adjective. It means that the relative clause describes the following noun.

For example, the woman who used to work at café is a magician now.

This sentence explains the woman using relative clause. This sentence can be divided two sentences. ‘the woman is a magician now’ ‘she used to work at café’.  We can remove subject and turn it into ‘who’ to mention the woman. 

Noun clause;

The noun clause work as a noun which is like object in a sentence. We can use the noun clause such as how, when, what, where, and the same as the relative clauses. If you want to say something about happening, you would use noun clause.
