Story5
In 1842, Charles Dickens visited America. His reception was somewhat colder than that which usually greeted him - already a successful author in both Britain and the United States. This lack of enthusiasm from the Americans was partly due to his criticism of the pirating of English books in that country and partly due to his outspoken distaste for the custom of slavery in the southern states.

In American Notes, Rudyard Kipling, the Nobel Prize-winning author of the Jungle Book, visits the USA. As the travel-diary of an Anglo-Indian Imperialist visiting the USA, these American Notes offer an interesting view of America in the 1880s.Kipling affects a wide-eyed innocence, and expresses astonishment at features of American life that differ from his own, not least the freedom (and attraction) of American women. However, he scorns the political machines that made a mockery of American democracy, and while exhibiting the racist attitudes that made him controversial in the 20th century ...

皆さんは、どんな希望や夢を持ちアメリカへの留学をお考えですか? アメリカのキャンパスってどんな所なんだろう? また実際の授業について行けるかな? 友達が出来るかな? などと思われていると思います。このシリーズでは、アメリカ流の大学生のスキルを身に付けるための訓練法を紹介します。全体的に明るく積極的なアメリカ人。勉強のみでなく、アメリカ人生徒の発想、知識、文化を最大限に吸収するのが、このシリーズの特徴です。渡米前からリアルな情報や状況を知ることは渡米後の精神的サポートとして必ず役立ちます。まず初めに日本人留学生が洗礼を受けるのは、リスニングです。リスニングスキルが弱い為にノートを取ることすら出来ないのが実状です。状況を把握出来ていないので教授にもクラスメートにも質問が出来ないのです。またその質問の切り出し方などもどの様に持っていったらよいのか解からず留学当初は、途方にくれる毎日です。特に学部留学の方は大変です。大学院と比べ、一般教養がある学部留学では、さらに果てしない語彙との戦いが待ち構えています。またこちらの授業は、短くて50分長ければ2時間近くもの間、英語での授業を聴かなければなりません。それを克服するには、ネイティブが話すパターンを覚えることです。そのコツをマスターすればスムーズに授業が聴けるようにもなります。また、繰り返しそのパターンを学ぶ事で話せるようにもなります。その延長
