Three questions I'd like to ask the author ~I, Robot~

Thank you for reading my blog this week. Today, I’d like to write about three questions I’d like to ask the author and possible reasons. I’m reading I, Robot now. The author is Isaac Asimov. These are my questions for him. ・ Why do you want to write SF novel? ・ How many work did you write? ・ You write a lot of kinds of novel, but which category is the best? The possible answer might be these. He interested in SF magazine when he was 10 years old. So, this is the trigger that he writes SF novel. According to the article, his father didn’t allow to read these kinds of magazine, but he insisted to this magazine is related to education, especially science. For this reason, he could read SF magazine. I searched this, he wrote more than 500 novels and books during his life. He wrote a lot of kinds of books, for example, science, language, history, Bible and so on. His knowledge covers a wide variety of topics. However, he interested in science (SF) first, so I t...

I, ROBOT

Thank you for reading my blog this week. I finished reading A Christmas Carol, so I started reading another book, I, Robot . At first, I have watched this story of movie, maybe. So, when I found this book in the library, I want to read this in English. Human being is a weak creature, because we need air, water and food. On the other hand, robot doesn’t need anything except electricity. Human being can’t work if the temperature is too hot or too cold. However, robot is made of metal. So, they never sleep and can work anywhere in any temperature. They are sometimes stronger than human beings. Recently, AI is outstanding. They are very useful and make our life easier to live by some way. However, is it really need? Will it be a menace to the exist of us? See you in my next post.

Letter to Fred ~A Christmas Carol~

     Thank you for reading my blog this week. Today, I’d like to write a letter to a character. I think I try to write a letter to Scrooge’s nephew. Before I start writing a letter, I’m going to introduce you to nephew. On the Christmas Eve, he visited to uncle’s house (Scrooge’s house) and invited to Scrooge to his house and have a dinner together, but Scrooge refused it. Because Scrooge thought Christmas is humbug, what’s Christmas? The nephew just wanted to enjoy Christmas with him, so he was disappointed. At last, he left the room without an angry word. Dear Fred How are you doing? I heard you were refused to come and have dinner together by Scrooge, your uncle. I know you just want to enjoy the Christmas party with your family. Your uncle is difficult person little bit, right? However, I’m sure he will change his mind and you will be able to enjoy your happy Christmas day!! So, you don’t have to worry about that. Have a good Christmas with your family. Tak...

A CHRISTMAS CAROL

Thank you for reading my blog this week. Today, I’d like to write about the story of A Christmas Carol. As you know this is written by Charles Dickens. We read Oliver Twist in this spring semester, so, some of you might be interested in other novels written by Charles Dickens. I chose this book because of that reason. The main role is old man, Scrooge. He is hated by many people, because there is nothing warm or open about him. In addition, he lives a secretive, lonely life, and takes no interest in other people at all. When his nephew visits him on Christmas Eve to wish him merry Christmas, Scrooge is not all pleased. Surprisingly, he says “Christmas is humbug!” However, that Christmas Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his long-dead partner, Jacob Marley. Marley tell Scrooge that his story after he died. He says “I cannot help you much, Ebenezer! I cannot rest, I cannot stay anywhere for long. I have been dead for seven years and all that time I have been travelling on the wi...
