The Caribbean File

Tajik stood up and walked round the hotel again. Munro looked at his watch. 11:00:00. Tajik came back to the front of the hotel. Munro looked at his watch again. It was 11:01:30. (P.24)

     The main character is Ian Munro, he is a agent. His works are like police, but he isn't. One day, his boss, Naylor, gave a job for him. It was to look for two terrorists. First, he went to a hotel where they was. At the hotel, Munro met a beautiful woman, named Salgado. In fact, she was an old girlfriend of one of the terrorists. Two terrorists and she was going to an airport, so Munro went there, too. At the airport, he saw a boy with three men. And then, the three and boy went to an island, and he followed them. Munro decided to help the boy there. Do you think Munro can do it?
     This is a level one book in the Cambridge English Readers series. Honestly, I don't like the ending, but I like mystery stories, so I was excited reading. Especially, my favorite scene is quotations. This scene is Munro tries to go into the hotel, and the discription of time made a strong impression for me!

     Thank you for reading.

     There was a village named Woodend. Woodend was a small and quiet village without shops. One day, a man came and he opened the corner shop. Everybody in the village like this shop and it was very busy. But there are something strange. In this shop, there was a locked room.

     This is a level three book in the Macmillan Readers series. I like suspense stories and this is very exciting for me. Also, it has many pictures, so it gives you the feeling of the scene clearly. A girl named Anna works at the shop. I want you to check the relationship between Anna and other people.

He had a gun and he was a robber. He went back to his office and got a phone call. It was from a president of the bank and he asked Samuel to look for the robber. Actually, the bank was stolen money five times in last week. So Samuel started to investigate, but he always missed the robber. In addition to this, he was mistaken for robber and he was arrested. Do you think he can solve this case? Also can you guess the real robber?
     This ending is so impressive for me that I couldn't understand the scene then. Also, some scenes is very interesting for me. For example, the bank was stolen his money in last week. There are seven days in a week, five days were stolen! It was so funny! I often read mystery stories, and I strongly recommend this book.

Helping Around the World

Maybe they teach their country's language, for example, French, Spanish, or English, to people who move there from another country.

     This book is mainly written about volunteers. There are many kinds of volunteers in the world. For example, some people work as doctors or teachers, other people work to deal with problems about foods or water. People also work to help animals and species of plants. So, many people are needed.
     Japan is comfortable to live, but in some countries, many people are suffering with many problems. So far I am interested in only around me, but I got a lot of information around the world from this. To tell the truth, I don't think I can work as a volunteer soon. Although I want to turn my attention to the problems of the world. I also look it again how we live in daily life.

Thank you for reading.
