Homework#1

Q1,Do you agree with the web site's description?What do you do that can be called "wrapping"? Give examples and reasons for your actions.

I don't agree with wrapping of Japanese gifts because these are too much!!
Recentlly, Japanese supermarket tackle the "eco bag" policy.
This content is charging for plastic shopping bags.
By doing so, people don't use plastic shopping bags that don't need. But, I think people should reconsider wrapping of Japanese gifts, too. Do the wrapping really need?

I can't say which, agree or disagree with wrapping of a house.
It is the important thing to preserve a privacy.
If I were put into a fishbowl, I couldn't live well.
But, we can't communicate too much more of privacy.
I think balance is valuable point.


Q2,Where do you go when you die?

I think I go to Heaven when I die.
When I was child, I asked my mother about my grandfather.
My grandfather died of a disease before I was born.
But, my mother said "he went to Heaven."
I think Heaven is the place where all dead people live in happily.


b. Explain why do Japanese have death memorial services 1 month, 1 year, 3 years, 7 years, etc. after a person's death?

It is very sad to go out of people's mind.
I think memorial services (1 month, 1 year, etc.) prevent the memorial with dead person from forgetting.
By doing these services, people can remember dead person each days.
