How to set goals to succeed 

Mt.Fuji is opened for climber from July 1st to September 10th.
So many people visit Mt.Fuji every year, but I've never visited there.
Today I'm going to talki about Mt.Fuji's yamabiraki day.

６月２６日の新聞に「富士　弾丸登山に懸念」という記事がありました。
日本の山といえば、富士山。　富士山は葛飾北斎の浮世絵にも描かれています。さらに、２０１３年にユネスコの世界文化遺産にも登録されています。　たぶん、富士山の名前ぐらいは　Mt.Fujiという呼び名で、みなさんも　知っているのではないでしょうか。標高３７７１メートルの富士山は、夏にしか登ることができません。　そう、７月に山開きを迎えるのです。
７月１日に山梨県側の吉田ルート、７月１０日に静岡県側の須走、富士宮、御殿場の３つのルートが全面開通され、山頂まで登れるようになるそうです。そして、９月１０日まで。また富士山への道は閉ざされます。
海外からの観光客だけでなく、多くの日本人が富士山頂から、日の出を見るために山に登ります。　その朝日を「御来光」と呼んでいます。仏教から来ていることばで、高い山から見る朝日は、仏さまの光、尊いものと考えられているからです。　毎年２０万人以上の人たちが訪れる富士山ですが、実は私は行ったことがありません。　一度は行ってみたいと思っていますが、山登りが苦手なので、なかなか腰があがらないまま、この年になってしまいました。たぶん、もう富士登山には登らないだろうと思っています。
富士山頂から日の出を見る人は、だいたい山小屋に泊まります。そして、夜が明ける前に起き出して、山頂を目指します。　ところが、今年、２０２３年の山開き初日、７月１日の山小屋の予約は、とっくに満室になっているそうです。５月に予約受付をはじめてたった２日ほどで定員に達したそうです。では、山小屋の予約ができなかった人たちは、どうするのでしょうか。　実は、途中で休憩をせずに、夜通し歩いて頂上をめざすそうです。それを弾丸登山というのですが、弾丸とは銃の玉のことです。　十分に休憩せずに短い時間で高い山に登れば、高山病にかかるリスクが高くなります。　それを地元の関係者たちは心配しているそうです。
日本に来た記念に　富士山に登ろうと思っている人は、しっかり情報を集めて、体力をつけて　臨むことが大切ですね。
富士登山が素敵な思い出になるように、どうぞ、ご安全に！

“I love watching the World Cup, which is without doubt the biggest and most exciting international football tournament in the world today. Every four years, it brings the world together in a celebration of the beautiful game. Every time the World Cup rolls around, it's like a huge party!

I especially enjoy the opening match between the host nation and the defending champions. It's always an emotional, high-stakes encounter that sets the tone for the tournament. As the games go on, the intensity builds, and it's so exciting to watch the best teams in the world battle it out for the cup.

When I watch the World Cup, I'm usually with my family. We get together to watch the big games, and it's a great excuse to spend some quality time together. We all love football, so it's a great way to bond over something we all enjoy. Plus, it's always fun to debate and discuss the games afterwards.

I think my favourite thing about the World Cup is the atmosphere. It's a truly global event, and it's so cool to see people from all over the world coming together in one place to enjoy the sport. It's a great feeling of unity, and it really brings out the best in people.

As well as that,the games are always thrilling, the atmosphere is electric, and spending time with my family, and friends while watching is always a blast. 


Thank you.”

Grammar Point: The verb (to be) boodan
While reading the Conversation, you might have wondered why the counterpart of the English verb “is” in Farsi (ast )
had different forms in different places. For instance, when Nasrin introduced her husband to her mom, she said, In
Dānieleh (This is Daniel). In another place, Nasrin asked her mom, Farzād kojāst? (Where is
Farzad?).
Like English, Farsi also uses both full and contracted forms of the verb to be. In English, we can say, “I am happy,” “Jane is
beautiful,” and “You are smart,” or we can contract the verb and say, “I’m happy,” “Jane’s beautiful,” and “You’re smart.” In
the same way, Nasrin used contracted forms of the be-verb.
Like most Indo-European languages, Farsi verbs are conjugated. Conjugation means that speakers attach endings to verbs
that provide information about the person, number, and tense of a verb. In Farsi, very often pronouns are omitted from
sentences because the verb endings imply the pronoun.

more examples:

مُعَلِّمَم=معلمم   moallemam = moallem hastam = I'm a teacher.
دُکتُری= دکتری؟  Doctori?        = Doctor hasti?        = are you a doctor?
تاجِره= تاجره       Tajere            = Tajer hast              = he's/she's a business(wo)man.
خُوشحالیم = خوشحالیم   khosh'halim =khosh'hal hastim= we're happy.
ناراحَتین؟= ناراحتین          narahatin? = narahat hastin? = are you unhappy?
تو راهَن؟= تو راهن؟         tu rahan? = tu rah hastan? = are they on the way?

NASA has given SpaceX an $843 million contract to build the vehicle that will help to destroy the International Space Station (ISS).

Space X, a company that's controlled by Elon Musk, will build the vehicle but the mission will be led by NASA.

The ISS was launched in 1998 and it's likely that it will have to be removed from space in the next few years.

The station is operated by space agencies from the US, Europe, Japan, Canada and Russia. All the countries involved have said they'll operate the station until 2030 except Russia, which has said it will operate it until 2028.

Teams of astronauts have been living in the space station since 2000. During that time, they have done more than 3,300 experiments in space.

It's expected that the SpaceX vehicle will pull the ISS through space before landing it in the sea. Both are likely to break apart as they re-enter Earth's atmosphere.

NASA said that it will be focusing on "commercially owned space destinations closer to home" as life on the ISS comes to an end.

The contract is seen as another vote of confidence for the company that Musk founded in 2002.

But experts say it won't be easy bringing such a large space station back to Earth safely.

Meghan Bartels from Scientific American said it will be a "delicate" challenge.

She said it took 42 different launches to send the ISS into space, where it was put together in orbit.

She added: "The orbiting laboratory contains about as much internal space as a six-bedroom house spread over an area the size of a football field," and that it weighs almost as much as three blue whales.

It's not yet known what the vehicle will look like or exactly when the mission will take place.
