John. F Kennedy ( Chapter 12 )

 I knew that John F. Kennedy was killed by a man and the man who was supposed to kill Kennedy was also killed by somebody so nobody knows the truth who actually killed the president even now. I have seen the Japanese TV show about these kind of stuff before and I also have seen the "incident" on YouTube so I assume myself that I know about him to some extent. However, that is not OK because he is as ten times wonderful president as I have thought. 
Kennedy was president for only about a thousand days. His death was a terrible shock for people around the world. Many saw it happen on TV. A short time before his death, Kennedy was happy and smiling. Then in a few seconds, the US lost a fine young president. 
This is well-known fact, even most Japanese know about the incident. I am not a contemporary of him but I can imagine how shocking that was for people who were living the era. 
But people remember the good things about Kennedy more than the problems. He was a strong, intelligent leader with a lot of courage. He kept the US out of nuclear war, and he tried his best to bring peace to the world. People remember John F. Kennedy not because he was good-looking or charming, or because he was a war hero or won a Pulitzer Prize. They remember him because he was a great president who believed in a better future for the world. 
I am wondering if he was not killed. But, although he was dead, he left some important thing. He is of definitely master pease of not only American history but also world history.

John F. Kennedy (Chapter1)

This week, I am in charge of chapter 1 of John F. Kennedy. In chapter 1, it is mainly about his attraction, so I am going to write about his attraction, quoting from the book.  John F. Kennedy died more than fifty years ago, but the world still remembers him. There are many books about him, and in 1991 Oliver Stone made a film, JFK, about his death. Important buildings and other places carry his name. Perhaps the most famous is the John F, Kennedy International Airport in New York, but there is also the John F, Kennedy Space Center, John F, Kennedy University, and many schools.   I only knew John F, Kennedy International Airport, so first time I read and fine it there are such big number of buildings and books about him, I was really amazed.   The government of Canada even called a mountain by his name: Mount Kennedy in the Kluane National Park in the Yukon.  It is very interesting that John F, Kennedy influenced even how foreign people call their own country’s mountain.   He was also

Port Out Starboard Home

This time I read Port Out Starboard Home. So I am going to introduce the book. Sometimes when the true origin of a word isn’t known (and sometimes even when it is), entirely fictitious theories and tall tales emerge to try to fill in the gap. These so-called folk etymologies often provide neater, cleverer, and wittier explanations than any genuine etymology ever could, all of which fuels their popularity and makes them all the more likely to be passed around—but sadly, there’s just no escaping the fact that they’re not true. So many words we missunderstand the true are explained here. I feel I am so interested of the book while reading because I can learn the origine of English words by reading it.
