An American guy, Michael, visited the villages which Ilunga is the master. Michael taught him how to raise fish. Michael told Ilunga that he need the pond site which there’s a small stream or a spring. After they found the good spot, Ilunga borrowed the shovel from Mike and he is going to dig for ten-by-fifteen meters pond size. Ilunga kept working like a marathon. Ilunga wanted a pond fifteen by twenty meters, so he was continue doing it with his heart. He kept doing without stopping and he had less break time. Michael helped him a bit because he has a limit. While Ilunga was digging the pond, he was sick. His hand was very hot, but he didn’t stop digging the pond. He wanted to finish it. Finally, the pond was done. Michael and Ilunga were having a cerebration, pointed on the fish and gave them name.
Who is the Hero in the story? Of course Ilunga is the hero. He digs the fifteen by twenty meters pond by himself with a shovel. Ilunga is stubborn, determined, a hard worker and diligent person. Even he felt tired or sick, he didn’t stop it. Also when he was sick and his body was hot like a fire, he was still digging the pond. I was trying to imagine this picture. A sick guy is digging a huge pond without stop. He would looks tired with lots of sweat. He might be dead someday if he doesn’t stop. He should take care of his health. I used a dictionary to find the meaning of some vocabularies. For example: machete (p.3, page 17) it means like a huge knife. I tried to picture of this stuff. I have tried measure the size of ten by fifteen meters and it was bigger than my teacher’s room. If he use only a shovel, that’s going to be really tough work. I felt a kind of pity to him for non-stop digging pond. I also tried to understand the sentence by re read the sentence, “with a shovel I sold him on credit against his next corn harvest.” It means if he can sell corns, then he will give money back to Michael. Even we know that Ilunga is the hero, can Michael also be a hero? I think yes because he taught Ilunga to raise fish, he lend Ilunga the shovel and he also helped Ilunga for a bit of digging. He couldn’t help Ilunga much because he has a limited.

As for your summary, it was easy to understand, but I think that you should write auther's name, and a title of this story, because I don't know what you read, and what the author's name is. I am not sure that you are talking about Ilunga that is a hero, because there is no grounds in the story.
I think that you should explain more about strategies that you used. for example, vocablary. You tell that you used a dictionary to find the meaning of some vocabluries, but you talk about only one vocab.So, I think you should explain what you used. I also think that you should use some examples from a text.
I already put the title in the top
SEE !! ??
sry for didn't put the author's name
I already give one example of vocabulary, i don't think that i should give a lot because it will be like like a junk.
Can u give me an example of the text that u were talking about??
I don't know what your authority is for saying that in the first paragraph.
Certainly, you wrote the title, but you should write in your blog.
you should see "Guiding for blog.
If you wrote a title, I don't know
what you read although I read the book.
