I will talk about my club.　I have been a member of a chorus club for eight years.　I became a member because I wanted to be a singer.　We have about thirty members.　Some are younger than I.　Some are much older than I.　The youngest member is nine, and the oldest member is eighty years old.　We sing many kinds of songs.　Among them,I like to sing English songs the best.　We practice every Saturday afternoon.　Before concerts,we practice more.　We are really good friends.　Last month, we sang in a small town to make people happy.　There, we sang songs for old people and children.　We sang old Japanese songs for old people and anime songs for children.　I was happy because people in the town liked our songs.　After we sang songs,a young boy came to me and said, “Thank you. I enjoyed your songs very much. Please come again.”　Don’t you think that songs can make people happy?　We will have a concert next month.　At the concert, we will sing five old Japanese songs and three anime songs.　I can’t wait.　I hope many of you will come to the concert to enjoy our songs.　Thank you.
