Recruiter: Why do you want to do this job?

Throughout the 20th century, many scientists believed that bilingual children would have trouble concentrating and learning in school. In the last decade, however, studies have proved just the opposite.

People that speak more than one language often perform better on tests that measure problem solving, concentration, mental flexibility and multitasking.

Basically, speaking more than one language keeps your brain fit!

Over half of the world’s population speak more than one language, and most countries have more than one official language. Native English speakers usually only grow up speaking one language.

Young children learn language easily, but that’s because they’re constantly surrounded by native speakers! Unfortunately, adults don’t have that luxury.

Bilingual brains have more grey matter. This part of the brain controls our muscles, sight, hearing, emotions, speech, and decision making. Learning another language makes our brains work harder and builds up our grey matter.

Some schools in the U.K. and America have started conducting lessons in one language in the morning and switching to a different language for lessons in the afternoon. Teachers say that the children concentrate much better and have more self-esteem.

For adults, it’s sometimes hard to stay motivated when learning another language, so make sure it’s always an enjoyable experience! Be sure to set goals for yourself, try a lot of different learning activities and talk to native speakers as much as you can.

Don’t worry about the mistakes you make, after all, the reward for all that hard work is well worth it!

Petit hibou
Monsieur Hibou organise une fête : il est arrière-arrière-arrière-arrière-grand-père. Et, cette fois, c’est un garçon.
À peine éclos, le petit présente déjà un vaste front, signe qu’il deviendra un grand savant comme son illustre ancêtre.
Monsieur Hibou montre fièrement son héritier à chacun des invités en s’écriant :
- Voyez comme il me ressemble !

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

北海道旅行の続きです。
今回は4日目の話です。

中標津、なかしべつ、というところから、北に走りました。
北海道の道路といえば、日本ではめずらしく、まっすぐな道が多いです。

そんな中でも日本で2番目に長い道路に行きました。


天に続く道展望台
https://maps.app.goo.gl/kZe5ph5bpyvQix8MA?g_st=ic

この展望台から、
約28kmのまっすぐな道を見ることができます。
季節のタイミングがあえば、まっすぐな道の先に夕日を見ることができます。

他の場所では見ることができない景色です。
特別な場所ですね。


ちなみにまっすぐの道路で1番長いのも北海道にあります。
約29kmです。

海外ではこういったまっすぐな道は多いかもしれないですが、日本はせまい国なので、とてもめずらしいです。

もし、北海道旅行の予定があって、レンタカーを借りる人はぜひ行ってみてください！


ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
