次は,中学生のタケシ ( Takeshi) が書いたスピーチの原稿
の1~6の問いに答えなさい。
I am going to talk about my interesting experience.
I went to London during this summer vacation with my family. This was my first
trip to a foreign country. I wanted to know about London, so I looked for information
about it on the Internet. I was able to see many famous things on the Internet before
the trip.
In London, we went to some popular places, for example, Buckingham Palace and
Tower Bridge. I already saw them on the Internet, but they looked bigger and more
beautiful to me when I saw them directly. I was (
)! When I walked around,
I saw a lot of people from different countries, too. Then, we went to a restaurant to eat
local dishes. They were very new to me, but I enjoyed them. When we finished our
dinner and left the restaurant at about nine in the evening, I found
2one strange
thing. It was not dark outside! I was very surprised. In Fukuoka, it is dark at nine
in July, but it is not in London! This was the most interesting thing to me. I enjoyed
this trip very much because I was able to discover new things.
After the summer vacation, I told my classmates about my trip to London in an
English class. Many of them liked my story and I was glad. After school, one of my
classmates came to me and said, "I really enjoyed your story. I love Harry Potter, and
I'm very interested in London. Can you tell me more about your trip ?" In fact, 3
was surprised when she came to talk to me. Before that, we didn't talk, and I though
she was not interested in foreign countries. But that was not right. She knew a lo
about London. We talked about my trip and Harry Potter. When we were talking
she said to me, "Going abroad is a good way to study, but I have (
) to
Foreign country. I was glad to talk with you." I discovered new things about her o
hat day.
