This is published by Penguin Longman Publishing.

       (ex) The man held the swords.

James and Chantal went to the Blue Cat Club.

They watched the cabaret of magic there.

The magician is clever.

The magician showed the magic, and guest was laughing.

The magician came to the place sitting James and Chantal.

He showed the magic.

He showed to get out his watch and her neckless.

The magician said "It's a only magic".

James thought not better.

Then, the magician asked Chantal to help the magic.

James recognized to stop.

So, he help the magic instead of her.

The staff took a big box and five swords.

James entered the box, the magician run though the swords.

Soon, they heard his scream.

The box was opened.

He closed his eyes, and his shirt was getting in red.

The magician surprised, and said "I'm so sorry".

Then James opened his eyes, and smiled.

He said "It's a only magic".

The guests laughed.

That's all.

Hello!!

Autumn semester started.

I start writing at my blog again.

Today, I borrowed a book in the library.

The name is "１００万語多読入門".

It was published by コスモピア株式会社.

In this book, six books is introduced.

First, I read "The Rope Swing".

This book was published by Oxford Reading Press in 1986.

The following words is the words I don't know.

stream=a natural flow of water that moves across the land and is narrower than a river

silly     (ex)'Shall we go for a walk?' ' Don't be silly, it's dark.'

                     You made a lot of silly mistakes.

splash=if a liquid splashes, it hits or falls on something and makes a noise.

            (ex)The ocean splashed against the pier.

It's easy for me to read this book.

Next, I try to read "Losing Lucky".

Bye!!
