Today, I read a bool titled "Gupta in Wonderland (Fushigi no kuni no Gupta)".

In this book, Indian named Gupta living in the world of TOEIC test realize various things gradually.

I had took TOEIC tests several times, so when I read the book, I thought "It could happen!!" frequently and I enjoyed it.

For example, in the world of TOEIC, there are many laws as following;

1. A Flight will always delayed definitely.

2. A Photocopier will be broken or paper will run out always.

3. A reservation of dentist will be made change always.

4. Indian names of the world are Gupta or Singh always.

Besides, the other various laws are exist in this world.

I realized the world of TOEIC test is strange certainly.

Since now I know these laws, I think taking a TOEIC test become a little fun.
今日は、「不思議の国のグプタ」という本を読みました。

この本は、TOEICテストの世界に住むインド人のグプタが、様々なことに気が付いていくお話です。

私は何度かTOEICテストを受験していたため、「あーあるある！」と思うようなことが多く、とても楽しめました。

例えば、TOEICの世界では次のような法則があります。

1. 飛行機は必ず遅れます。

2. コピー機は必ず故障するか、紙が無くなります。

3. 歯医者の予約は、必ず変更させられます。

4. インド人の名前はグプタかシンです。


その他にもこの世界には様々な法則が存在しています。

こうして見ると、確かにTOEICの世界は不思議な世界だなと実感しました。

こういった法則を知ると、今後TOEICテストを受けるのが、少し楽しくなると思います。

However, It's a bit difficult for me to understand the difference between "certainly quite strange" and "strange certainly"(Is the important thing the position of "certainly"?).
I think maybe you're right;
I wanted to say "the world is certainly the wonderland (just as this book's title) ".

I wanted to say "It happens all the time in the TOEIC world" or "It's common occurrence in the TOEIC world" when I read the laws of the TOEIC world written in the book.
I wonder if I can convey my thoughts to you.
I'll try to improve my English!
