[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You gave the incorrect answer...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Helloooo and good afternooooon, all![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]My name is Mr. Kondo, your P.E. teacher![n]But since no one at this school teaches[n]English, I'll be doubling up my roles![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...Don't be so disappointed. In fact,[n]I've spent some time overseas![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]One week of vacation time, to be exact![n]But that's more than enough to teach a[n]class! Hahaha![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]We'll start with the basics of the basics:[n]definite articles versus indefinite articles![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]A definite article is used before a[n]singular or plural noun that refers to[n]a particular member of a group.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]In any other instance, use an indefinite[n]article! Ya got that!?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]I'll pick someone at random...[n][f 4 2]! This is a "definite"[n]give-away! Hahaha![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Which of the following is a definite article?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"A."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"The."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"An."[e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Goooood job! You're correct.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Native speakers distinguish between the[n]two unconsciously, but you guys aren't[n]them! So study hard, okay!?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Now! Repeat after me![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"The" is a definite article! "A" is an[n]indefinite article![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]I can't heaaaar youuuuu! Don't be shy![n]Let's practice together, loud and proud![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Come oooon. A middle school student[n]could get that right.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I guess in the city, lessons like this are[n]"indefinitely" on hold! Hahaha![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Native speakers distinguish between the[n]two unconsciously, but you guys aren't[n]them! So study hard, okay!?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Now! Repeat after me![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"The" is a definite article! "A" is an[n]indefinite article![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]I can't heaaaar youuuuu! Don't be shy![n]Let's practice together, loud and proud![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]So, are you guys being conscious of your[n]health? Looks like some of you have been[n]slacking off recently...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]You know, the only cute girl in cla--[n]Ooops! I mean, all of you are cute![n]No, really![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Er, please, don't tell your parents that[n]I said that, will ya? I don't wanna get[n]in trouble.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Anyway, I have an interesting topic for[n]you. Hm, maybe I'll throw it out there[n]as a question.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]Sounds like a good time to pick on the[n]city boy, [f 4 2]-kun.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Which of the following is the highest[n]mountain in the solar system?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Mt. Fuji."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Mt. Everest."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Mt. Olympus."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Wow, you really are from the city![n]...Well, I guess that doesn't have[n]anything to do with it. Hahaha.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]On the planet Mars, Mt. Olympus, or[n]"Olympus Mons," has an elevation three[n]times that of Mt. Everest![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]People tend to think Everest is the[n]highest mountain, but that's thinking[n]inside the worldwide box.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Since you got me started on mountains,[n]I'm gonna cover some material on their[n]characteristics...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Hmm, sorry! That's not the right answer.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]*chuckle* It was kind of a trick[n]question, but I did say "in the solar[n]system," right?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]On the planet Mars, Mt. Olympus, or,[n]"Olympus Mons," has an elevation three[n]times that of Mt. Everest![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Since you got me started on mountains,[n]I'm gonna cover some material on their[n]characteristics...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 0 0 65535 0]Mr. Hosoi? Have you picked up the[n]latest volume of "Timid Teacher" yet?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 1 5]Mr. Hosoi[n][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]Of course I did. But it's raining today.[n]I hope I can get it home without getting[n]it all wet...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]So, uh, does anyone have an extra book[n]cover they'd be kind enough to lend me?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]...Whoops, I have to start the lecture![n]Don't try to distract me by talking[n]about books![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Um, so today we'll be covering free[n]morphemes. Let's get out our textbooks,[n]everyone.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]A free morpheme is a word that can stand[n]alone. New words are formed by combining[n]them with other free or bound morphemes.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Some examples would be the words "tree,"[n]"juice," or "fruit." As you can guess,[n]bound morphemes can't stand alone.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]...Okay. Let's see if [f 4 2]-chan[n]can answer this.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Which one of the following is NOT[n]a free morpheme?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Ion."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Ionize."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Union."[e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Good job. That was kinda tricky, wasn't it?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The word "ionize" can be divided into[n]"ion"--a free morpheme--and the suffix[n]"-ize," meaning it's not a morpheme.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Understanding morphemes may give you[n]clues about a word's meaning, so it[n]wouldn't hurt to study them.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]That one was kind of tricky, and just[n]goes to show how little attention people[n]pay to morphemes.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The answer was "ionize." If you look[n]carefully, the word is formed from two[n]root words.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The word "ionize" can be divided into[n]"ion"--a free morpheme--and the suffix[n]"-ize," meaning it's not a morpheme.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Understanding morphemes may give you[n]clues about a word's meaning, so it[n]wouldn't hurt to study them.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...Alright, that's the end of the proof[n]and the end of the chapter too.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]So, I've heard all the gossip going[n]around about Rise Kujikawa. Those idols[n]don't have "normal people" problems.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]They'll have money, they'll never have[n]to compromise in marriage... *sigh*[n]What should I make for dinner tonight?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Just so you know, being an adult isn't[n]all fun and games. It sucks.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Taxes, marriage, kids... I get so[n]frustrated by these things, but it's not[n]like I'll ever escape.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Oh well. Like they say, bad laws are[n]still laws.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]Hmm? Are you guys even listening!?[n]I'm trying to give you important life[n]advice here![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]You! [f 4 1]-kun, you're looking[n]especially slackjawed today![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Tell me, who said, "Law is the correct[n]judgement of the state?" [n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Pascal."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Socrates."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Plato."[e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Oh, so you knew, huh? You're right,[n]it was Socrates.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Socrates accepted his own execution,[n]even though his sentence was the result[n]of an unjust law.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]That's exactly what I'm talking about.[n]Sometimes we have to accept things as[n]they are, even though they're a pain.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...So you're all ignoring me thinking[n]I'm just chit-chatting, eh? Well, now[n]this is gonna be on the test.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]*sigh* ...You don't even know this?[n]The answer is Socrates.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Socrates accepted his own execution,[n]even though his sentence was the result[n]of an unjust law.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]That's exactly what I'm talking about.[n]Sometimes we have to accept things as[n]they are, even though they're a pain.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...So you're all ignoring me thinking[n]I'm just chit-chatting, eh? Well, now[n]this is gonna be on the test.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 16 3 0 1]Don't get carried away just because[n]some scatterbrained idol is back in[n]town! You hear me!?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 16 1 0 1]That's Rise, for all you out-of-the-loop[n]morons. All she does are variety shows[n]and silly commercials![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]What's the damn point of running your[n]mouths about some half-wit whose only[n]talent is appearing on shows for idiots?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]Now, I've got the perfect lecture for[n]you assholes! Let's talk some Friedrich[n]Nietzsche![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]It makes sense! Many of you are reacting[n]to your own "ressentiment" toward that[n]idol girl by talking about her, right?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 16 1 0 1]...Why the hell do you all look so upset!?[n]Stand your ass up, [f 4 1]![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 16 3 0 1]What does "ressentiment" mean? Answer[n]the question![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Hatred and jealousy."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Depravity and fear."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Sadness and greed."[e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 16 1 0 1]Ah, I see you've already done the[n]reading, smartass.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Well, you got it right. "Ressentiment"[n]is a French word denoting hatred and[n]jealousy![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 16 3 0 1]It's different from "resent," because it's[n]used specifically for jealous emotions[n]toward someone better than you![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I'm sure you're all very familiar with[n]how that feels. At least I won't have to[n]go into much depth on this one.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]And just so you know, there are LOTS[n]more people out there who are much[n]better than all you dipshits![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 16 1 0 1]So you're upset for being a dumbass who[n]doesn't know the answer, right? Good,[n]then the word describes you perfectly.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Listen up, you lazy good-for-nothings![n]"Ressentiment" is a French word denoting[n]hatred and jealousy![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 16 3 0 1]It's different from "resent," because it's[n]used specifically for jealous emotions[n]toward someone better than you![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I'm sure you're all very familiar with[n]how that feels.

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Isn't the rainy season exhausting?[n]I'm sure most of you aren't even[n]motivated for this class... Right?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]But I've gotta say, if you keep trying,[n]something good will come of it someday.[n]...Wow, I said something inspirational.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Just try not to take things too seriously.[n]That'll only tire you out faster, right?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]So let's take a quick break. I have an[n]interesting question for you.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Let's see... Hmm... [f 4 2]-kun![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Which one of these is the name of a[n]real river?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Lame Duck River."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Pis Pis River."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Mahony's Phony River."[e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Correct! Sounds like you're officially[n]an ex-city boy now! Haha, not that it[n]matters.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Anyway, that river is in Nicaragua, and[n]"Pis Pis" is pronounced "pie pie." It shares[n]the name with a water weed there.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Lots more places have silly names.[n]There's "No Name Canyon" in Colorado, or[n]the city of Uncertain, Texas in America.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...Ooops, I wasted a lot of time on[n]this. I hope I have enough time to cover[n]everything that'll be on the test...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Oooh, sorry, that's incorrect. The[n]answer is actually the Pis Pis River.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]*chuckle* That one was difficult.[n]It's not even covered in the textbook.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Anyway, that river is in Nicaragua, and[n]"Pis Pis" is pronounced "pie pie." It shares[n]the name with a water weed there.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Lots more places have silly names.[n]There's "No Name Canyon" in Colorado, or[n]the city of Uncertain, Texas in America.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...Ooops, I wasted a lot of time on[n]this. I hope I have enough time to cover[n]everything that'll be on the test...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Alright, today's lecture is on a famous[n]Japanese collection of poetry called[n]the Man-yoshu.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Man" means "10,000" in Japanese, but[n]that doesn't mean it has 10,000 poems.[n]In fact, it has less than half that.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The ancient Japanese people used the term[n]to point out how huge the collection was.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]Now, why don't we read a passage?[n]...Oh wait, I just remembered! Today is[n]Tanabata, the Japanese star festival![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Why don't we study some poetry from[n]the Man-yoshu that relates to Tanabata?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Let's see, since he's probably never[n]seen a sky full of stars, let's pick on[n][f 4 2]-chan![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Which poet wrote the most poems about[n]Tanabata in the Man-yoshu?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Ono no Komachi."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Kobayashi Issa."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Kakinomoto no Hitomaro."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Right. Kakinomoto no Hitomaro has written[n]137 poems about Tanabata.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I'm amazed how many he wrote. He was[n]certainly a talented writer.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Back then, Japanese people could relate[n]their own lives to the myth of Tanabata,[n]or the story of Orihime and Hikoboshi.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]You know, you guys have it good, the[n]ancient Japanese weren't allowed to see[n]each other even when they were dating...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 17 2 0 1]Awww, couldn't you put yourself in the[n]plant's shoes?

How could she[n]not be at least a tiny bit guarded about[n]going to a glacier...?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]*sigh* Maybe I should go home for today.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The fog doesn't seem to be lifting, either...[n]Don't you feel drained on foggy days?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The bad news is that I can't go home[n]yet, though. That's the crushing reality[n]of a full-time employee.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]So, back to the lecture... Math and[n]civilization evolved simultaneously,[n]which allowed us to solve problems...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Although, there are some math problems[n]that have yet to be solved. They're called[n]"millennium prize problems."[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]In the year 2000, they announced seven[n]unsolved problems. If you solved one,[n]you were awarded with 1,000,000 dollars.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Hmm, [f 4 1]-kun.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]How many millennium prize problems do[n]you think remain unsolved?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Four."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"Six."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"All of them."[e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Ahh, I'm surprised you knew. But yes,[n]one of them has been solved.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I envy whoever solved it... He walked[n]away with the money. And so you know,[n]he solved the poincare conjecture.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]They even tried to award him the Fields[n]Medal, which is kinda like the Nobel Prize,[n]but he declined it.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I guess geniuses don't think along the[n]same lines as us normal people. *sigh*[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5][f 4 8 900 8]...Sorry that I'm getting off topic,[n]but my husband is acting weird lately.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Not that we've been fighting... But he's[n]been going on about how the fog is[n]poisonous...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Ugh. I'm so depressed. Let's just continue[n]the lecture...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Incorrect. Actually, one of them did end up[n]getting solved. Just so you know, it was[n]the poincare conjecture.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]They tried to award the guy the Fields[n]Medal, which is kinda like the Nobel Prize,[n]but he declined it.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I guess geniuses don't think along the[n]same lines as us normal people. *sigh*[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5][f 4 8 900 8]...Sorry that I'm getting off topic,[n]but my husband is acting weird lately.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Not that we've been fighting...

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The word "September" actually means[n]"the seventh month." It originated on the[n]Roman calendar, which began in March.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Anyway, what is wrong with this[n]weather? The whole town looks like[n]a polluted factory exploded.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]But don't even think about calling in sick[n]or skipping your studies. I'll be able to tell[n]if you were really sick.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]And that goes double for anyone who[n]failed the last exams![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The eleventh hour is upon you, people.[n]The next test determines whether or not[n]you can go to the next grade.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...Hm, [f 4 2]-chan. I've got a[n]question for you.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]What does it mean when you're in the[n]"eleventh hour"?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"It's eleven o'clock."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"It's a dilemma."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"It's the last chance."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Wow! Right, right! It's your last chance![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I'm gonna put this question on [f 0 1 2]next[n]week's test[f 0 1 0].[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I wish you all luck on moving on to the[n]next grade! Study hard![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Come on! That is completely wrong![n]It means it's your last chance![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I'm gonna put this question on [f 0 1 2]next[n]week's test[f 0 1 0].[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Make sure to study hard so you don't[n]fail it![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Good morning! What's up, you guys?[n]You don't look so well.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Are you exhausted from studying for the[n]test around the corner? I hope you're not[n]forgetting something...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Christmas is coming up in a month![n]Have you found your dates yet?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]Hahaha, I've got mine already! Tell ya[n]what! I'll give you guys a Christmas[n]question![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Get it straight, you'll get a date! Get it[n]wrong... and it'll be a blue Christmas for[n]you! [f 4 2]! [n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Which of the following is considered[n]an incorrect way to spell "Christmas"!?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Wow, excellent! [f 4 2], looks like[n]you'll be decking the halls with a lady[n]this Christmas![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]He's right, the apostrophe isn't[n]necessary for abbreviating Christmas.[n]It's right there in the dictionary.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]But, this is a very common misspelling[n]among Japanese people, so remember this![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]*chuckle* Nothing beats eating cake[n]with a loved one on Christmas!

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]No, no, the answer is "X'mas!" Looks[n]like Christmas'll be a silent night at[n][f 4 2]'s house this year![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]The apostrophe isn't necessary for[n]abbreviating Christmas. It's right in[n]the dictionary.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]But, it's a very common misspelling[n]among Japanese people, so remember this![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]*chuckle* Nothing beats eating cake[n]with a loved one on Christmas!

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 17 2 0 1]If the fog is making you feel ill, you[n]should try the exercise I found on TV[n]the other night![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]They're saying it can even beat out[n]the germs from the fog. That's why I've[n]been doing it every day since I saw it.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I recommend that you all give it a try.[n]Besides, we'll feel better about it if[n]we do it together, right?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]Well, let's get down to business.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Are you guys aware of how many life[n]forms are living in the world at any[n]given time?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Let's see... I'll pick on the ever-[n]energetic [f 4 2]-kun.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 17 2 0 1]Which of the following has the largest[n]population on Earth?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 17 2 0 1]Gooood job! *giggle* You're right.[n]Insects make up the largest population[n]on our planet.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Within the insect world, the ant is[n]probably the most prevalent.

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 17 2 0 1]Bzzzzzzt! Incorrect. The answer is the[n]insects.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Within the insect world, the ant is[n]probably the most prevalent.

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Helloooo and good afternooooon, all![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]My name is Mr. Kondo, your P.E. teacher![n]But since no one at this school teaches[n]English, I'll be doubling up my roles![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...Don't be so disappointed. In fact,[n]I've spent some time overseas![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]One week of vacation time, to be exact![n]But that's more than enough to teach a[n]class! Hahaha![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 9 900 3 5 0 5]We'll start with the basics of the basics:[n]definite articles versus indefinite articles![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]A definite article is used before a[n]singular or plural noun that refers to[n]a particular member of a group.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]In any other instance, use an indefinite[n]article!

I love to use[n]my dowser to look for lost items, and[n]there's nothing quite like a romance.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]In fact, world history is a magnificent[n]romance.

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]When did A.D.--in other words,[n]Anno Domini--begin?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"When humans were born."[e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"When Jesus was born."[f 2 7 0 0 30 1][e] [f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]"When a nation was founded."[e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Ah, you seem to understand this well.[n]And does anyone know what B.C. stands[n]for?

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Hm, that's not right. That occurred[n]well before Jesus was born.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]We call it B.C. It stands for "Before Christ."[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]It's easy if you know what the letters[n]stand for.
