BR 2-18: THE HEART

 A healty heart can pump oxygan - filled blood around the body. (p.20)

The heart is one of the most important organs in the human body. It's a muscle that works like a pump. Sending blood to every part of the body. The body needs this blood to stay alive. It takes 20 seconds for the heart to pump blood to every cell in the body. A healty heart can pump oxygen - filled blood around the body. When the heaart isn't healthy the body doesn't work as well as it should. The way you move and the food you eat has a lot to do with how well your heart works.

 For the first time, I knew that the heart beats about 2.5 billion times. It is amazing. I was said to have weak heart by my doctor. So I will eat healthy food and get lots of exercise to keep healthy.

BR 2-17: The story of chocolate

 An American, names Bruce Murrie, gave Mars some money for the project. So they called their new chocorates M&M's. (P.45)

 A thousand years ago, chocolate was a big secret. Only a few people drank it and nobody ate it. By the 20th century, people had learned how to make milk chocolate smoother, creamier and even more tasty. Today, you can buy the Mars family's chocolates almost anywhere in the world and they're nothing like the Maranns' bitter drink. When the Mayans first caught a whiff of rotting cocoa beans, they knew they had found something exciting. But they had no idea how popular choccolate would become.

 I could know chocolate history. I eat chocolate everyday. For example, I eat ice cream, cookie, bread... foods including chocolate. I love chocolate very much!!! But I make it a rule not to eat too much.

She is a pretty famous actress all of the world. She is the leading actress in the United States, and she has appeared in a lot of movies, dramas, magazines, and the others. Especially, she has appeared in "Erin Brockovich", "Pretty Woman", "Eat Pray Love", and the others. She has won an Academy Award in the movies of "Erin Brockovich".

 She has a brother. He is "Eric Roberts", and he is an actor too. Her father and mother are actor and actress too. So, they are pretty famous family.
She is married to "Henry Daniel Moder". He is a movie cameraman. Of course, she has three children.

 First, This movie is "notting Hill". Notting Hill was drawn the love of the master of bookstore who is not clear and the Hollywood actress. This story's stage is the town of the common people called Notting Hill where really exists to the west of London.　Julia Fiona Roberts plays the part of big Hollywood movie star, Anna Sccot.

Then Anna changed her cloth in his house, she was touched by his sincerity. They kissed. It was hot kiss. After this, they kept up a relationship. Then, they overcame many hardships, finary, they came to love each other. It is very happy end.

 Notting Hill is a wonderful and very funny love story. The movie was absorbed to me for the first tine. Anna says "I'm also just a girl. Standing in front of a boy. Asking him to love her." If Hollywood star said such a thing for me, it would pulsate with excitement. And, the friendship and the love of friends are one of the main attractions of this story too. As a story, there are not virtually surprised, and it is a common, reverse Cinderella story, but a supporting actor and the side story excite this story more. "She" of the ending music flows movingly, too. This was a love story that I thought to be interesting purely, sincerely recommend this movie to everybody.

 Second, this movie is Ocean's Eleven. Ocean's Eleven is an American comedy crime caper in 2001. And, the movie is remake of the Ocean's Eleven in 1960. The movie is directed by Steven Soderbergh, and a lot of actors and actress cast in the movie including Julia Roberts.

Eventually, she recognized that his real face, and she gets back with Danny Ocean again. Ocean's Eleven is a continued to Ocean's Twelve, and Ocean's Thirteen. 

 Next, this movie  is “Mirror Mirror”. This story is “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” another story version. This is the latest movie which she appeared. Julia Roberts act the part of Queen Clementianna, the evil stepmother of Snow White. Queen Clementinna is a narcissist. She hates Snow White, because Snow White is the most beautiful women in the country. She wanted to marry with Prince Andrew Alcott, because she wants to his huge estate, but Prince Andrew Alcott falls in love with Snow White. Queen Clementianna think will kill Snow White when she heard it. Snow White escaped to forest. She met the Seven Dwarf. They are very kind. Snow White practice the art of fencing for she defeats to the evil stepmother. She changed from a little princess to a hero by degrees. Theirs battle is very interesting. For example, Queen Clementinna think about she doesn’t want to lose for Snow White, so she went to the spa. She trained at a gym.

 Julia Roberts act the evil person the first, but she likes part who looks Queen Clementinna. She had never act the evil person right up to now. She enjoyed acting on camera. This film released in March 30, 2012 in United States. This film was directed by Tarsen Singh. He is very famous director. This film got an award. It is 2012 Teen Choice Awards Sci-Fi/Fantasy. This is excellent! Julia Robert is very good person.
