  6. i choose an article that is most popular companies for job hunting in japan on 2010.
    i did job hunting. it is hard for university student to do job hunting. and this year, big earthquake came. most of companies are affected on their sales. so i think, next year's job hunting is more harder than this year.

  10. About Japan middle & high school use of cell phones.
    I think it is good for children to have a cell phone if they do not use it so much. I did not have a cell phone when I was a child, but times changed. Now, everyone even elementary school students have a cell phone.  It is important to talk with children about how to use cell phones before they have it.
