Hi everybody,
I am Yusuke, Japanese, live in Australia. I really enjoy living in Australia and wanted to share my experience with people in Japan. So, I have started to publish a newsletter to people in Japan. Now there are over 10000 Japanese people reading my newsletter. In my newsletter, I write many different things, such as my life in Australia, Australian culture, English study and so on. I often get feedback from readers and recently quite a few people asked me about IELTS exam. They said that there were not many IELTS practice books in Japanese and asked me if I know there are any good ones. I have taken IELTS twice before but I did it in Australia, so I did not know the situation in Japan well. I did some research on what is available for Japanese people who want to prepare for IELTS exam in Japan. There are many English books are available at Amazone.jp and they can also visit many of those English IELTS web site. I actually suggested some of my readers to visit them. Of course, it is good for them to study in English and there are many IELTS study materials are available today, but it is too difficult for all these beginners, most of my readers are, to start with only English materials. It is good to start with some study book in Japanese and once they start to understand it they can study with English materials. However as my readers told me, there were not many study materials in Japanese available. I thought well, if there is any Japanese one why don't I make it for them. I have experience in taking IELTS and have a lot of friends who was and is studying for IELTS around me. So I can write in Japanese about how to prepare for IELTS through my own experience and some advice from my friends. I am planning to publish it as an e-book. In my book I'd like to include some sets of IELTS practice tests as well. I'm wondering if someone knows or has the sets of IELTS practice tests which I can extract in my book. If you could permit me to extract it from your website, I will state where it is extracted from and would love to introduce your website both in my book and newsletter. Or please let me know if you know someone whose IELTS practice tests I could extract from. Thank you very much for your time Yours sincerely Yusuke Yoshida |

Electronic book readers are nothing new. Over the past decades, many have actually tried but failed, until Amazon that is. Ever since the Kindle, it's actually groovy again to be reading. By and large, it is in vogue especially among the executive and academic ranks. Everyone would want one, for whatever reasons; work needs, status symbol, lifestyle and what not..... Whether you're pro or against it, it captures your attention!
With the launch of Kindle 2 Amazon has integrated the entire business of e-reading. The eBook reader is not only filled with smart features, it's also connected and mobile just like the cellular phone. It is essentially a cellular eBook reader in that it has wireless coverage anywhere in the US for Amazon bookstores plus browsing text-centric websites like Wikipedia, Google and others. The original Amazon Kindle wasn't much of a looker but you can't say that about the new Kindle. Looking stylish and a lot more approachable than its predecessor, the Kindle 2 is also an ergonomics masterpiece. Whether it's by chance or choice, the appearance is very Apple-like (iPod) and that's a plus with many folks. But looks aside, it's a functional gem in its own right. ![]() |
