Many <strong>visitors<\/strong> come to the park every year to enjoy the flowers and the beautiful <strong>views<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now, early <strong>blooming<\/strong> canola flowers are at their peak. The bright yellow flowers cover the hills and create a beautiful <strong>scene<\/strong>. The park is on a hill, so visitors can also see the blue sea and a very large bridge. The yellow flowers and blue sea look very nice together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are about one million canola flowers in the park. Some of them bloom earlier than usual, so visitors can enjoy the flowers sooner. Even after the early flowers finish blooming, canola flowers can still be seen until late April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people come with their friends and family to take photos and relax. One visitor said she was <strong>surprised<\/strong> by how big and beautiful the flower field was. She said it was even better than she expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Awaji Hanasajiki is a great place to visit in spring and enjoy nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sub>Source: Mainichi Shimbun <\/sub><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"rtoc-3\"  class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comprehension Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer the questions following the article in English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Where is the flower park?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What flowers are blooming now?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What colors can visitors see from the park?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Until when can people see the canola flowers?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"rtoc-4\"  class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In your own words, attempt to summarise the article in 4 sentences or less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"rtoc-5\"  class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discussion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Discuss these topics with your tutor, and support your answers with examples or experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What flowers are popular in your country?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Who would you like to visit this park with?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u3053\u306e\u6559\u6750\u3067\u82f1\u8a9e\u529b\u30a2\u30c3\u30d7\uff01\u8a9e\u5f59\u304b\u3089\u59cb\u3081\u3066\u3001\u7406\u89e3\u30c1\u30a7\u30c3\u30af\u3084\u307e\u3068\u3081\u3001\u30c7\u30a3\u30b9\u30ab\u30c3\u30b7\u30e7\u30f3\u306b\u6311\u6226\u3057\u3066\u307f\u307e\u3057\u3087\u3046\u3002 Contents Vocabulary Article Comprehension Questions Summary<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1811,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1804","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-03-news-beginner"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1804","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1804"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1804\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1812,"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1804\/revisions\/1812"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1811"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1804"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1804"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.simporacademy.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1804"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
