According to the reading passage, a British Mathematician named Alan Turing conducted the an experimentation, referred to as the Turing Test. The idea was that computers can give the right answers from to a human’s questions. Although Many contests with have offered a significant cash reward huge money and a renowned prizes for testifying proving computers can be thinking have been arranged in 20c, until recently, but no computer has been verified themselves to be "thinking".
From demonstrating To demonstrate the validity of the Turing Test by “on behavior” rather than “on thought”, philosopher, John Searle conducted the experimentation called as the Chinese Room, in which only English speakers can figure out questions in Chinese through a computer terminal. According the lecturer, generally, the English speakers cannot understand the question, however, if the question with an extensive and apprehensible reference can be given, they can know the real understand the meaning of the questions. So, although the subjects don’t know the questions in Chinese letters, they can catch the real meaning so that they can show the behavior in regards with the questionsI assume this is your practicing for some type of exam. Work on shorter sentences. Run on sentences will lead to confusion with technical things like this. Just be forward, concise and direct. I believe many people in english even make this mistake. It's almost as if we feel we have to write more than necessary. "Please write 2-3 pages for each subject". How many times have we seen something similar? The only goal for writing is to convey information. Unless it is an artform or a stylized non-fiction piece, there is no reason to ramble. Just my opinion! Good job.

How have you been? I will go to Korea soon, maybe in two months. I think it will be fun. When I get there I want to find new hobbies. I have an interest in the kayageum. Maybe I will learn to play it. I now know how to cook a little bit of Korean food, but I want to learn more and more. I know, I know. It's awful, but if you change a word please give me the definition or explain why that word fits better. I am very much a beginner. Thanks!April 25, 2013100
Lots of arrogant comments on both sides here...which is normal for religious and political conversations...which is why some say you shouldn't discuss politics or religion.
As for not being able to prove there is a God, that isn't a good reason not to believe in God. You can't prove to me that you love your mother, but I am sure you do.

Normally in Chrome you can highlight a word, right click it, then do a google search for it. I wondered if I could set up Chrome to search other engines, mainly the Daum dictionary. Turns out it was pretty east to do. I just installed this extension "Simple = Select + Search" https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/simple-select-%20-search/aagminaekdpcfimcbhknlgjmpnnnmooo?hl=en-US Once you do that you can follow the instructions on the help page...but to make it easier, just add the name of the search engine Daum, then add this as the URL http://dic.daum.net/search.do?q=%s&dic=eng If you want to search another dictionary, you can learn how to add it in the help section of the extension. I think is quite a nice feature to help you look up words quicklyApril 12, 201300
I would like to learn how to use better English expressions(11)
We had been talking for about an hour in my room when the feeling of delight escaped was not there and the room was just became enveloped in awkward silence. It was a curious thing, indeed. The atmosphere was had not been that bad. even when We met each other two years after we both (this simplifies the sentence. It also prevents it from being a "run-on" sentence.) our entering the entered into military service. at the same period of time, Given that, we lost track of the time chatting over a drink. Probably Maybe (just sounds more natural to me)because we all felt awkward, we was were forced to smile.
I would like to learn how to use better English expressions, so I hope you can help correct errors in my writing.To be honest when I read the first sentence I was very surprised in the word usage. I'd even call it poetic. I changed those words to add to the poetic nature of that sentence. I hope my corrections still keep the meaning of what you were tring to say. The one thing you could be more clear about is how many people you are talking about. At first I thought it was about two people but at the end it seemed like more than two. "because we ALL felt awkward" makes me think more than two.
Are you saying that you met a friend after both of you finished military service? Also you entered the military at the same time? that was a little unclear at first. Also, in the first sentence, was the feeling awkward the whole time? Or did it become awkward after one hour? I assume the second option. If it was the first you would want to say "bout an hour in my room WHILE the feeling of delight..." If that is the case, then replacing "when" with "while" would have been the only correction needed. I hope my corrections were useful! Good job though.
