BR 1-08: This Little Boy

This little boy can't hear very well, but he can do all things that we do. He looks just like ordinary people, and I think that he is very cute. He can run, jump, swim, and use the computer. The little boy can hear some things. He can talk his family, but the family need to speak clearly. He goes to school just like we go. He spend his school life just like we do, too. He can hear what his teacher and his friends are saying. However, when there is a lot of noise, he cannot hear it. Then, he is reading their lips. I surprised that he can talk others and read their lips in spite of having hearing aids. He looks happy. His smiling is very cute.

Essays 1-03a: Thematic movie reviews of Mrs. Doubtfire

I found that the movie is a story of one family. There are 5 people in the family, the father, the mother, two sisters and a brother. The father would be got a divorced by his wife. By the way, he did not want to divorce his wife, so they got a divorce through mutual agreement. In the movie, a scene which I was interested in is that their children like both father and mother, so they were so sad to divorce their parents. That is the reason why I suppose that the theme of the movie is love of family.

The major or inspirational scene which I think is that the children had dinner with their father in father's house. Their mother came for the children while the children were eating dinner with his father.  They looked very sad when they had to come back their home. The scene was given me an impression. I feel that the children really like their father. Whatever is father's character, I was sure he is their children's real father.

As I wrote, main characters are the father, mother, two daughters and a son. The father and mother would divorce. The father's a special ability talent is a voice artist. He could be dubbing in a cartoon film. The father is so characteristic and childish that he could not distinguish things of right or wrong. The mother was often irritated by him. However, the children love their parents.

One day, when the mother came home, the house was ravaged by the father and their children. The mother was enraged at the father. She could not have patience him anymore. That is the reason why she said that "I want to divorce you!". However, their children love the father and mother. The father and mother were very sad, too. They were very sad.

I guess that a climax of the story is happy end. The reason I think why children really like him. The children must think that they want their parents to divorce. The children cannot do and enjoy their life without him. Their mother loves the children, too, so she cannot take steps to divorce, and must take steps toward solving a problem. I think that the father and mother will discuss the problem.

I think that the story is interesting. I feel sad and pleasure. The scene I was impressed is expression of children. First time, I was surprised at the father's character. However, I feel he was good at voice. If I watch the movie again, I want to pay attention what the father, mother, and children think.
