Now I would like to talk about movies. There are many kinds of movies,   48   action movies, comedies, romance and so on. I like war movies the most   49   war movies educate us about the horrors of war.

War is the worst way   50    resolve differences between countries. There are movies about the two world wars. I like them, too. They taught me how the wars started, and   51   they ended. My favorite movie is Saving Private Ryan,   52   talks about America’s war with Germany.  53   American soldier almost lost all his brothers in the war, and the American government wanted to let his mother have at least one son. So they sent soldiers to save   54   remaining son, Ryan.

There are many war movies in the world,   55   I like this movie the most because this movie is very heart-warming.

I teach clay classes to children and adults. One cold afternoon a family came in to   36   a clay class together. It was a one-hour class that was meant to allow the family some fun at making their own artistic creations.

Three children aged nine, seven and three sat in their seats   37   to begin their little artistic creations. The warm clay and various tools made their eyes full of   38  . They were so excited to begin. Every word I said made them feel great in the clay class and so they began to create. The young artists enjoyed their   39   to touch, feel and express themselves until their parents  40   and controlled their every moment. They were told to do this, do that, use this, not that ... I   41   watched as the little blooms of creations were taken from their small hands.

The three-year-old rebelled and was told she was   42  . I wanted to ask how the parents would feel if they were enjoying themselves creating a piece of art and I took it from them and totally controlled the   43   of its creation. I asked the controlling father if he would like to have a cup of coffee and let the three-year-old just   44 , explaining she would have fun and stop   45   him. He did and she continued focusing on her work with the most beautiful smile.

In this hurried world, I   46   that some parents and teachers are not letting children   47   as they want. It is better to let children create works of art in their own way rather than tell them to do in ways that please us as adults.
