Reading

Today, I want to write my favorite scene of this story. Matilda, the lead role, is a girl genius; however, her parents don’t think so, rather, they think she is stupid. She likes reading books very much, so she asks them to give a book, but, her father tells it is silly to read books. She gets angry, and decides to pay him back. She puts glues his favorite hat with strong adhesive. He knows nothing about that and puts on the hat. Of course, he can’t take it off. He gets panic! Then, she says to him showing up with an innocent look “what’s the matter, Daddy? Has your head suddenly swollen or something?” I like her character. Her parents are not educational people, rather, child neglect; however, she tries to enjoy her life and never gives up the environment, such as the parents and the nasty principal. If I can be like her, I will make my days more exciting.

Matilda is a little girl. She is so smart that she knows all the multiplication when she just enters school. Miss. Trunchbull, the principal of her school is very nasty and hates her because Matilda’s father said to her his daughter is a rascal. One day, Lavender, Matilda’s friend, puts a newt into Miss. Trunchbull’s glass. She assumes that Matilda does that. Matilda gets very angry, and knocks the glass without her hands. She uses supernatural power! She is very surprised at herself because she doesn’t know she can do such a thing. Miss. Trunchbull becomes frozen although she is always bossy. I don’t like Miss. Trunchbull because she won’t listen to the teachers’ opinions and she is violent against the children. So, I’ll give her an advice. Miss. Trunchbull, you should quit the principal. People who hate children should not be teachers because it is bad for both of teachers and students. Why do you hate children especially girls? You used to be a girl. If you like to use vio...

Matilda is a little girl, but, not an ordinary child. She is genius; she can read newspapers and books written by famous writers such as Charles Dickens, Charlotte Bronte, Jane Austen although she is just five years old. But, her parents don’t think so, rather, think she is stupid. What is worse, they forget to send her to school. She is late for a half year to enter school; however, she is the smartest in the class. This story is set in the United Kingdom, so I feel some differences during reading. One of them is that children enter school when they are five years old. I didn’t know that because children enter school when they are six years old in Japan. In this story, Matilda’s teacher, Ms. Honey, asks the principal to let her skip from her class to higher grade. I was surprised that the grade skipping is permitted at the primary school. (But, the principal is very nasty and hates her, so she doesn’t allow it.) I think it is an incredible case. There is a difference of a way o...

Nat is a Marley is a New York private investigator. He is deceived a man, and police thinks he is the criminal who stole some jewels. Finally, he finds out the mastermind, Tommy Lam. He has two people, and they have guns. There is nothing except them in the huge room of Lam’s company. Nat was pointed the gun. Then, Nat’s colleague storms onto the room, and shoots Lam and his subordinates. After that, police come there, and Lam is arrested. The suspicion against Nat is cleared up. This is the end of this story. I’ll write three questions, and answer them instead of the author. 1.      Lam’s subordinates are shot and die; however, Lam doesn’t die. Why doesn’t the worst man die? Because he has to prove Nat’s innocence. And he should be tried in court. I also tell the readers how dangerous the guns are. 2.      Nat is the lead role of this story; however, his colleagues play more active parts. Why is the lead role often helped? Beca...

Nat is a Marley is a New York private investigator. During the search Angela Lake, the woman she asked him to receive a bag in stead of her, Captain Oldenberg, a detective with the New York Department, comes to him and arrests him. The reason is that there are some jewels stolen by someone few months ago in the bag. Nat is confused, and appeals that he was received by Angela desperately. But Oldenberg won’t listen him. After a few days, Joe Blaney, Nat’s colleague, comes to the prison to prove that he is innocent. He is released, but there isn’t evidence enough to arrest Angela. So, he restarts the search with his colleague. There is little description about Joe in this chapter, so I’d like to write him. Joe felt pressed because Nat, the leader of New York private investigators, had been arrested. He thought Nat must not be the criminal; however, there is no evidence. He started to collect it, even though he had his own task. He looked for pictures of some security cameras, a...

Nat Marley’s Diary      December 19 th Tonight, I drunk in McFadden’s bar alone. I found a beautiful and expensively dressed woman there. Suddenly, she threw up a bill and rushed without receiving the change. Then, I had an intuition that she was someone who really did have problems, and I decided to chase her. however, I lost her after she went behind the information center. I can’t believe that. I could not lose her because I’m a private investigator in New York! I will not get sleep well.

Nat, a private investigator, is asked to find a good layer by a rich woman, Mrs. Joanna Whittaker, however, a few days later she passes away. He is also asked to find her son, Jackie by a homeless woman, Annie Clayton. Nat finds him, and they meet again after twenty years. A few days later, she passes away for her disease. Nat doesn’t think there is a connection between the opposite women, however he found the secret of Annie Clayton. Jackie’s father was the late Mr. Tom Whittaker, Mrs. Joanna Whittaker’s husband. Jackie and Mrs. Whittaker’s son and daughter were very surprised, but instantly felt relaxed. Finally, they decided to use the inheritance from to build a facility for homeless women such as Annie Clayton so that they can live comfortably. If I wrote this book, the ending would not have happy end. If I were a son or daughter of Mrs. Whittaker, I couldn’t accept Jackie who is the son of my father’s lover. I would write that they can’t accept the illegitimate child, b...
