here.
(2) Why should Satoshi understand better about Japan?

I can understand your feelings about your English now. When Japanese people start living in
America, it is difficult to understand the conversations because American people speak very fast.
Now you may think you must study hard to speak and listen to English. But today I want to tell you

both were very hard at first, especially speaking about my opinions. In Japan, we usually don’t
express our opinions like American people.

Third, you should understand better about Japan. You must explain about it when you are in

問６ あなたがアメリカに留学し，アメリカ人に日本を紹介するとしたら，どのようなことを伝えますか。３

America. My American friends have many questions about Japan. One day, one of them asked me,

文程度の英語で書きなさい。

“To put it simply, what kind of a country is Japan?” I was trying to know about America, but I neverthought about Japan, and I couldn’t answer that question. Communication means talking about
yourself and knowing about the other person. You should talk about Japan to American people, andthey will talk about America to you. But it is not easy when we live in our country, because weusually don’t think about our country. So, while you are in Japan, you should start learning more
about Japan, and have your own ideas.
These three messages are very important to Japanese people who live in America. Keep them inyour mind and practice your English. I hope your English
