Introduction

Today’s meeting was zoom style.
We had 2 guests today.
At the Ice Break session, we shared our recent news.
Many members had recently enjoyed autumn excursions.
Word of the Evening was “resonate”.

Table Topic Session

Today’s table topic master was TM A.M.
The theme was how to handle someone who has bad manner.
When you have trouble with a nuisance, what do you do?
The member answered their reaction against sounds leakage on trains, cutting into line, illegal parking, and so on.
Many members answered that they will warn politely, but one member answered he will punch the annoying person.

Speech Session

Today we had one speaker.
TM H.S. talked about the way of thinking that “Don’t do to others what you don’t want to do to yourself, and do to others what you want to do to yourself.”
It is apparently correct. But sometimes what you want can be what others don’t want.
It was a good opportunity to consider that there are various kinds of people.

Evaluation Session

The General Evaluator was TM A.M. and the Individual Evaluator was TM S.K.
TM S.K. pointed that changing vocal variety and gestures would make the speech more effective.
TM A.M. requested TM S.K.’s evaluation include a comment on the contents of the speech as well as the delivery of the speech.
We were not able to use WoE even once.

Award Session

Table Topic: Ms. M.K.

Rading and Discussion Session

As a first attempt, we read a news article to increase our vocabulary.
The article was about Kashiwazaki-Kariba nuclear power plant.
We read each paragraph in turn, and when there were unknown words or unclear parts, we confirmed the meaning.
It was a new and informative session.
