Kan English https://ameblo.jp/kanbook/ ~ 英語と切っても切れない関係 ~ ja Population Projections. By t2030 the percentage of the population aged 65 or older will have risen significantly, to more than 30%. This means that fewer people will be working and therefor fewer people will be paying income tax. In the future it maybe necessary for governments to increase the official retirement age to 70 or even older. When today's  30-year-olds are in their sixties it is unlikely that the will enjoy the relaxed lifestyle that today's older generation can expect when they give up work. Governments will therefore need to make sure that this older generations is healthy and fit enough to continue working.
However, I believe the biggest impact will be on the younger generation. In 2030 the younger generation will need to work much harder to support the large number of older people. If this trend continues then it is possible that our entire culture will change. For example, most marketing companies today try to target the younger generation with their products and advertisements. If majority of population is older then this will change and companies will begin to target the older generation instead.
So, what can be done now to prevent these problems? Firstly, I believe that governments of developed countries should find ways to encourage people to have larger families and increase the birth rate. Secondly, I believe that they should encourage migration from developing countries so that the populations of over-crowding can be solved. ]]> https://ameblo.jp/kanbook/entry-12031703023.html Wed, 27 May 2015 14:55:22 +0900 Introducing my city. Firstly starting from the city centre, walk out of town along the liver. You will see some old blocks of flats when you have been walking about 2 kilometres. Gradually you will walk into more natural area where there are cottages and gardens where vegetable are grown. You will probably see more very nice  alone the way. After that you will be completely out of the town and will be able to enjoy magnificent(extremely attractive and impressive) views over the local countryside. Keep an eye open especially for bird life and for flowers because both are particularly rich in this area. Finally you come to an attractive area near the river which you can enjoy lunch or a drink before catching a but back to the city. ]]> https://ameblo.jp/kanbook/entry-12031661386.html Wed, 27 May 2015 12:52:18 +0900 Jargon - the upside jargon(words or expressions that are used by a particular profession or group of people, and are difficult for others to understand). It is an essential part of the network of occupations and pursuits which make up society. All jobs have an element of jargon, which workers learn as they develop their expertise. All hobbies require matsery of a specific jargon. Each society grouping has its own jargon.The phenomenon turn out to be universal and valuable. It is the element which, in a job, can promote economy and precision of expression and can help make life easier for the workers. Once you have commanded it, jargon is something we readily(quickly and without difficulty. in a way that you do not object to sth) take pleasure in. Whatever the subject is, motor cycling baseball computer. It can add pace variety and few more to speech, like when with an important even approach, we might slip into the related jargon. We enjoy the mutual showing off which stems from(to be the result of sth)the fluent use of terminology. And we enjoy the in-jokes which a shared linguistic experience permits. Also we are fiercely protective of our knowledge. We are quick to demean(to make people have less respect for sth) anyone who try to be a part of our group without being prepared of our jargon. And we resent it when someone other groups sending our lack of linguistic awareness, refuses to let us in. ]]> https://ameblo.jp/kanbook/entry-12031591099.html Wed, 27 May 2015 08:15:09 +0900 すべての男は消耗品である

本すべての男は消耗品である - 村上龍 

Kindle版でサンプル読破だけど。
サンプルとは思えないくらい公開部分が多い。
小説家ってその人の生きてる時代とか人生のカケラを蕾にして、そこに肥料、太陽の光、水みたいな空想を与えてせっせと花を咲かせる仕事をしているような。

うまく言えない。笑

その花がもともとどんな蕾だったのか、どんな風に育てあげられたのかを垣間見れるのがエッセイだと思う。

だからエッセイが好き。

鉄板焼きをただ買って食べるより、カウンターの目の前で焼いてくれたのを食べる方が何倍も美味しいと思う、あの感じ。



この2、3日は常備本をいくつか同時に読破したなぁ

あのなんとも表現しにくい感情をサラっと言葉にしてくれる、よしもとばななさん。人間の深いところの重い感情って言葉にできない、って思うのに。

"出力をしないことには、入力したことをきちんと消化したことにはならない"というのが"読書のやり方本"の決まり文句ですが、今晩は出力なしに何を読んだかだけ記録することにします～。

なぜなら、人生の三分の一を占める"無意識の時間"を考慮しなさい、と著者が述べていたからです。

つまり、眠たいので寝る、ということ

結局自分の捉えたいように内容を捉える、都合のいい解釈をするという「バカの壁」を越えられないままの私。
