  1. Hi,Matt!I'm Masumi Horie.I'd like to answer the question No.3.

    I have lived in Gunma for five years. The good thing in Gunma was that I could enjoy many hot springs.I used to soak in a hot spring every day.The bad thing in Gunma was that there were few dress shops,so I didin't have many clothes.

    I'd like to answer the question No,4.

    I can get almost all things which I want in Tokyo, so this is a good point of Tokyo.

  4. Hi, Matt! I'm Toru Sugisaki.
    I'd like to answer the question No.3.

    I'm living in Kasukabe, and it is a country. There are the good and bad things. The good thing is there is more nature than in city. The bad thing is it takes much time to go to the university.

    See you next class!

  5. Hi, Matt!
    I'm Ayuka Niwa.

    I'd like to answer the No.1.
    I prefer living in the country, because I don't like a place there are so much people, so I would not like to live in the city like Tokyo.

    See you next time.

  6. Hi, Matt! I'm Yohei.
    I'd like to answer the question No.3.

    I lived in Asahikawa City, Hokkaido for about 18 years. My home town is really quiet and surrounded by beautiful nature such as big rivers, large forests and so on. However, there are few hospitals and supermarkets. We have to go such places by car. So, some elderly people (especially people who can't use car) have trouble living.

    See you later!

    I prefer living in the country. Because I was born and grew up there, I feel more confortable being there.

    I'm thinking to go back and have a job after I graduate university.

    I'd like to answer the question No.4.

    The good point about living in Tokyo is that there are many shops. I can buy whatever I want soon.
    The bad point is that water is bad.
    I always want to drink good water of my home town.

    See you!
