Lesson 5
Dear Prof. Sue Garreis:
Thank
you for your reply and corrections. Thank you for your reply and corrections.
=>Dear
Emily,
Thank you for your fifth message. My comments follow.
I didn’t see any Chinese restaurant nearby my university.
But, actually, I can buy some Chinese food at the dinning hall of the
university, like mapo tofu (stir-fried tofu in hot sauce).
And, there are at least three Chinese restaurants near the Abiko station. I
have been to two of them, the food is really delicious.
My favorite Japanese food is sushi. But, I can’t eat too much, because
some kinds of sushi are raw.
Speaking of American style restaurant, I just think of some fast-food
restaurants like McDonald’s. There is one near my home.

=>I hope you can come to America some time. We have a much greater variety
of food than McDonald's!

Today's adventure was one of the many national museums in Washington DC. The
Natural History Musuem had a live butterfly exhibit. It was fantastic!
Butterflies were everywhere in a special room build inside the museum. They
were feeding on flowers and fruit. Some were large and some were small. All had
beautiful colors. Here's a link: http://www.butterflies.si.edu/species/index.cfm
. We also saw the exhibit on the Insect Zoo and the Rain Forest. We saw the
Hope Diamond. Emma is fascinated with that gem. Here's its link: http://mineralsciences.si.edu/hope.htm
. We finished the day with the Imax movie on Tornadoes. A guy wanted to film
the inside of tornado as it moved over the land. After eight years he finally
succeeded. The movie was fascinating. I did not realize all the research that
was being done on tornadoes. Here's a brief description of the movie: http://www.bigmoviezone.com/filmsearch/movies/index.html?uniq=431.
What is the worst weather you have ever seen?
