25分前に予約する。ネイティブキャンプではスカイプは使用しない。サイト独自の画面でカメラ付きでレッスンが行われる。Arisという若いフィリピン人講師。フリートークを選択し、英検の練習をしたいと言うと面接用のトピックが書いてある資料をくれた。何かトピックをお願いすると、何と「築地問題」についてどう思うか聞かれた。正直、築地について情報がなく困ったが、埋め立て地のことを何というか聞いてみた。
Build a land with sand, soil, rocks, stones, and cement.
途中、回線が悪くて会話が途切れてしまった。時間ぎりぎりまで話していて、最後の挨拶もままならず終了してしまった。講師はせめて終了時間の1分前くらいにはまとめに入ってもらいたい。実践練習をして、まだまだ思ったことが口から出てこないなと感じた。
Does Japanese music have a fair reputation abroad?
I do not agree that Japanese music have a fair reputation abroad for some reasons. The first reason is the language can be a barrier. Over the world, not many people understand Japanese language. Most of Japanese music is played with Japanese language and most of the meaning of the songs are not understood. Therefore, I cannot say that it is not taken equally in other countries. The second reason is that Japanese music is biased in the world. Japanese music in general has various kinds from Pop music to classic music, but too much focus is placed on Pop music such as theme songs from anime or cartoon. For example, if people from other countries think of Japanese music, they would think of Japanese anime songs. In this way, other kinds of Japanese music are not taken equally. They should attract more attention. For these reasons, I do not agree that Japanese music has a fair reputation abroad.
