As you can see, I tried to choose news from various subjects. Reading newspaper is difficult for me, so English-language paper is more difficult. I learned English-language paper this year from spring. I knew that there are some rules in news paper, and I can read a little now. Reading class is going to finish soon in January, but I want to read English-language paper voluntarily from now on.
