Homework#1 1

Do you agree with the website's description?

I can't agree with the website's completly. we too wrap things like chocolate, wash powder etc but we aren't going to wrap anything. For example, fance is protect our house for storm and kimono is national costume. We didn't have a sewing machine for a long time ago, so we couldn't sew curve line. And then we made kimono. Kimono didn't have to sew curve line. I can't say these things "wrapping".

When I go to marriage ceremony, I bring money that is wrapping paper and when I bring a lunch box at school, I wrap the lunch box with cloth.
