I met with Shu in the CIES house and we went to the basement to
work. He had chosen a rather short piece on NPR to listen to however, the topic
and vocabulary was fairly complex. He chose an article on the manipulation of
research by the sugar industry. The link to the article will be at the bottom
of this post. I listened to it at least three times before meeting with him and
developed some comprehension questions which he was able to answer for the most
part. Sometimes certain key words he could not remember. After I had finished
with my questions we had a conversation on the topic exchanging opinions and
comparing dietary culture between Japan and the U.S. We finished the meeting
with me helping him to find the grammar errors in his speech evaluation. Next meeting,
he will once again choose a piece from NPR to listen to, this time I asked him
to choose one that was slightly longer.
