BR2:＊How Elephants lost their wings＊

I read ‘How Elephants lost their wings.’ The main characters in the story are elephants with wings, two gods.

The elephants which live long time ago, they had big and beautiful wings to fly. They could fly everywhere they want to go. But they are really noisy, so it is not comfortable for two gods, other animals and plants. The elephants yelled, fell down the houses and so on. The two gods thought a plan which they took away the elephants’ wings after elephants slept. The two gods succeeded their plan. After elephants woke up, they were really angry and acted violently because they had no wings. But they never get their wings again, so finally they were calm down.

In my opinion, the elephants make a good impression, for example gentle. So the elephants in this story are a little bit violently, I could not imagine different type of the elephants. (152 words)

Suggests

I read a lot of suggests of my class mates. In the suggests, I chose some of them.
First, I chose hikaru’s（http://pica-pika.blogspot.com/2009/07/porfolio-for-writting-iii.html ), she said ‘Include introduction and conclusion every time I write essay’ it will help me when I write essay.
Next, I chose Saki’s (http://saki-kiyota.blogspot.com/2009/07/portfolio-for-writingiii.html）, in her blog she said ‘We should include other media and links on our blogs.’ I did that, but it was not enough.
Thirdly, I chose Hikari’s (http://light0121.blogspot.com/2009/07/portfolio-for-writing.html), her suggest was ‘I should use more different words when I write blog.’ That will help me very much, because I can remember many kinds of words of same meaning.
Then, I chose Machiko’s (http://meetmasaigirl.blogspot.com/2009/07/portfolio-for-writing-iii.html) she said ‘I should write more.’ It is really simple suggest, but I think it is most difficult one for us.
Finally, I chose Manami’s (http://panda2215.blogspot.com/search/label/portfolio) she said ‘I should make more comment on my friend's blog, and I also should respond to my friend's comment.’ Of course, I should write blog, but my friend makes comments for my blog, I have to response to them.
