「どうしてですか。エレベーターは　速くて　楽ですよ。」･･･知っています。でも、わたしは　エレベーターが　怖いです。だから、エレベーターに　乗ることが　できません。

こんなことが　ありました。３、４年前、エレベーターに　乗っていたとき、急に　エレベーターが　ストップしました。そして、エレベーターから　出ることが　できませんでした。一人でした。だれも　来ませんでした。それが　すごく　怖かったです。

また　ストップしたら、どうしよう？ だから、わたしは　いつも　階段や　エスカレーターを　使います。できるだけ　エレベーターは　使いません。だから、もう　どうして？ って　言わないで　くださいね。

２）いぬが　てを　かみました。　×いぬに　さわります。
(Dog bit my hand /pet a dog)

３）おなかが　いたくなります。　×つめたい　たべものを　たくさん　たべます。

４）へんなひとが　います。　　　×よる、そとを　あるきます。
