Kanako's Reading Blog

 This week I learned Korean by Duolingo expect Friday to Sunday because I visited Korea. I tried to speak Korean, but I can't because I only learn words now. While travelig, I thought that most people can speak both Korean and English. From this, I expect that the education of Korea is better than Japan now. So I will try to learn not only words but also grammar tomorrow.

From this story, I learned that it is important to listen to someone's advice and to be kind to other people. Dickens, Charles. (2008). A Christmas Carol. ?: Helbling Readers.
