Title: Interpretation

Description:
In this practice, I would like you to act like an interpreter.
Your partner prepare a Japanese passage with 4 or 5 sentences and you
change the each sentence to English soon after you hear Japanese.
You are not allowed to use a dictionary for the first time. Please try it anyway!

Second, you take some time to arrange the same passage with your dictionary
after that and try the same again (You cannot take notes). 　
Your second time would be much better than the first.
I hope you will enjoy it.

Best regards,Chie Matsumura
