Japanese People and Cats(5) Finally, it seems that Japanese characteristics match with cats rather than with dogs. According to Sankei Shimbun, Japanese people who value self-reliance are more attracted to independent cats than to loyal dogs. The coolness of cats is more suitable for those who dislike interference and prefer to maintain a certain distance from people close to them. With dogs, they need to take walks and socialize with other dogs. Owning a dog requires some socializing, which is not suitable for passive and introverted Japanese individuals. In Korea, last year, there were 2.7 times more families with dogs than with cats. But the gap is getting narrower. During the year, the number of dogs increased by only 5%, while the number of cats increased by 13%. On SNS platforms like Instagram, posts about cats have already exceeded those about dogs. Korea, like Japan, is aging its population, and the number of single-person households continues to increase. Therefore, in Korea, it is only a matter of time before the number of cats exceeds the number of dogs. The number of cats is also increasing in Europe, where it has been said for hundreds of years that cats are Satan's animals living with witches. In France, where dogs had been loved very much, there are now 14 million cats, nearly twice as many as dogs. A Japanese novelist says, "Cats protect themselves strongly while staying alone, and anyone who can feel the beauty of silence cannot help but love cats." Maybe human life and cat life are becoming more and more alike. People want to be personal and independent, rather than living in a bunch. Humans, who are becoming lonelier, seem to choose cats as pets for many reasons.

Besides that, considering the accident happend in Seoul last year, it is not unresonable to be cautious. Let's enjoy Halloween this year during the day, dressed up, and without alcohol.

Q. Agree or disagree: A job with more vacation time is better than a job with high salary but less vacation time. A. I agree that a job with more vacation time is better than a job with high salary but less vacation time in terms of family and private life. I have two reasons to support this opinion. To begin with, I think that people should spend more time with their families. Spending time with their families together leads to building good relationships in their families. It is really important for them to value family time. Second, private life should also be valued. For example, traveling on vacation or spending at their home can help them relax. When people work jobs with little vacation time, people have less time to relax. I think that they need time to recover from their daily work. Therefore, I agree that a job with more vacation time is better than a job with high salary but less vacation time because it is essential for people to spend time with their own family and their private time.

Today's weather was lovely. I joined my MeeMaw for a jog after lunch and confidently outran her. We then took a leisurely stroll in the public garden, where I pursued my newfound hobby of collecting leaves. While I was stripping epidermis here and there, my MeeMaw came across a jasmine flower bush emitting a captivating fragrance. She excitedly decided to pick them for brewing tea. However, I instantly realized it was a bad idea. Later, we examined a jasmine petal in my culture dish filled with water under my microscope, only to find a colony of various microorganisms. Slithering strips, spinning dots, twitching ovals, black or translucent, all these eerie images proved one thing that they were not safe to consume. My MeeMaw was astonished before this image and vowed never to gather such things for food again. It was fulfilling to save her with my knowledge and made me feel like a real botanist or doctor.

Practicing my English with a pair of translations: 1- “The University first day is an event that usually represents a significant change into people’s life, for that reason it isn’t rare that anxiety appears. This anxiety can come into sight for a number of things related to novelty and fear because of things don’t go as well as one expected. There is a change in our usual setting (environment) and that can produce quite uncertainty. Maybe we don’t know what the way to our classroom is and we are afraid to draw attention to us if we are late, for instance. It can be fear to don’t be socially accepted for others as well.” 2- “It’s a little worryingly that almost half of the population fantasied in a recurrent way with a total domination order and a huge amount of brutality.”
