DAY251 [渡英228日] 2020年12月7日（月）：海外ジャーナルの査読，とりあえず論文脱稿

　息子を学校に送り出し，論文の圧縮に取り掛かる。3000字程度の圧縮が必要なのだが，予想以上に時間がかかる。結局，午前中はほぼこの論文にかかりきりだった。ようやく圧縮した論文を共著者に送付して終了。すぐさま博士課程の論文のチェックに取り掛かり返却。こちらもこれで手離れできそうだ。
　午前中は，さらに海外ジャーナルの査読依頼が舞い込む。とうとうこの日が来たかという感があるが，せっかくの機会なのでお引き受けすることにした。上手く査読ができるだろうか…。

　
　After sending my son to primary school, I had started to decrease the article's amount of character. Though it was about 3000 characters to be needed to decrease, it took time than I expected, so I spend am at this work. Finally, I send the article to co-author, and soon started to check my doctoral treatise and returned it. It seems that it can also be taken away.
　In the morning, there came a request to become a referee of overseas academic articles. This day has come, but I decided to accept the request because it was a great opportunity to grow up. Could I do peer-reviewing well?
