Conversation between two friends about reading newspaper (Chapter # 5)

This story uses words from '1000 most common words in English'. 


The morning comes quickly because Lemon has slept like a rock. He wakes up remembering his dream: an effortless glide through golden gates guided by angles and eagles.

“Mum, dad, I need to talk to you,” says Lemon. “I’m leaving… I’m going to go find this paradise. I need to see it for myself. I want to feel the soil between my toes and taste the unknown insects.” 

His parents are quiet for a moment. They see in his eyes that this is very important, and they only want what is best for their child. 

His mother speaks first. “You are a sweet child, little Lemon. You have a wonderful mind, brave and curious. You know you’re always welcome here. Our nest is always open.” 

“Mum, of course I’m coming back! I love you two so much and this is my home.” 

Lemon’s father says, “It has been said that there comes a point in a bird’s life when he needs to go beyond the mountains… It happened to my father and my father’s father, but never for me. That time never came. I grew up during the worst winter in known history. I had to work and sacrifice—there was no time for adventures… so, go on, Lemon. Get out there and live your life!” 

“You are the best parents a bird could ever wish for!” 

And with those words, the family hugs, a long hug which, even though freezing winds rip past them, seems to warm them to their very bones.

【日本語podcast】Natsumiは、ただ普通に話したいだけ Just wanna talk naturally in Japanese

＃１私のことと、podcastのこと。【N1】

みなさんは「さくらソング」ということばを聞いたことがありますか。日本では、タイトルに「SAKURA」、「さくら」、「桜」とついた歌が　たくさんあります。これらの歌は、桜が咲くすがたや、桜が散っていく姿を思い起こさせます。そして、恋人との思い出や別れを思い出させたり、好きな人への熱い想いを歌ったりしています。今日はこの「さくらソング」について話します。
Have you all heard the word "Sakura song"? In Japan, there are many songs with the title of cherry blossoms, "SAKURA", "さくら”, and ”桜”. These songs remind us of cherry blossoms blooming and falling. Some songs reminds us of the memories and parting with our lover and others song about the passion for the person we like. Today I will talk about this "Sakura song". Thank you!

Some people will spend lots of money to keep themselves feeling younger for longer.

But researchers believe there are actually plenty of cheap — and easy — ways to help keep our minds healthier as we get older.

And a new study has found that eating fish may be linked to a lower risk of cognitive decline.

An international team of researchers looked at 35 previous studies on the effects of eating fish on cognitive function.

They found that those who ate the most fish had a lower likelihood of cognitive decline compared to those who ate the least.

Cognitive decline — or impairment — refers to the difficulty that older adults have with thinking, learning, remembering, decision-making and concentrating.

But it's not just normal aging: the term is used to describe a situation where a person's brain functions have changed more than is usually expected as we get older.

It can happen suddenly or over time. And with more people living longer than ever before, experts think we will see more cases of cognitive decline, as well as more cases of conditions like dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

The study found that the risk of cognitive impairment decreased the more fish people ate, starting from about 50 grams per day.

However, the same pattern was not observed with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. The study authors said that more research would be required to look into the effects of fish on these conditions.

In some parts of the world, fish are a very important part of the diet. But many people in countries like the UK and the US don't eat enough fish, experts say.

Fish contain a range of vitamins and minerals, as well as omega-3 fatty acids, which have been linked to brain and heart health.

However, some experts are worried that our polluted rivers, lakes and oceans are making fish less safe to eat.
