    In France people kiss on both cheeks also, with friends and family both male and female.  

     

    But for males, if they don't know another male very well, they can shake his hand instead of kissing his cheeks.  But when the become friends, they can start to kiss on the cheeks to say hello.

     

    At work everyone shakes hands to say hello (or if you are close with your colleagues you can also kiss them on the cheeks).

     

    It's very important to say hello to everyone individually.  If you are at a dinner party for example, you should go around the room and say hello to each person either kissing their cheeks or shaking their hand.

     

    They also do the same thing to say goodbye.  So at the end of the evening, you have to make your rounds again, kissing cheeks or shaking hands to say goodbye.

     

    It's very different in the USA.  When you arrive you can just give a big collective "Hey" to everyone in the room.  (you can also wave your hand or nod your head to acknowledge people). We don't kiss or shake hands when we meet with friends.  And now shaking hands is reserved more and more to business settings or more formal interactions.  

     

    With very close friends or family, we may hug to say hello, especially after not seeing them for a long time!

    Physical attractiveness   (attractive - adjective / attractiveness - noun)

    'For and against' (pros and cons (pros y contras) / advantages and disadvantages) about how much is important the physical attractive.

    You could say - weighing the importance of physical attractiveness or pros and cons of physical attractiveness (often in English we say to "weigh the pros and cons" - this is too look at the good and bad aspects)

     

    * Introduction
    Both society and marketing are always remember reminding us of the huge importance of the physical attractiveness  (or you can simply say "looks"). In fact, from we are teenagers to adult age from adolescence to adulthood, the message is very clear. We need to be attractive persons people and we need to have a great look in order for our friends take us into consideration.


    * The advantages of being attractive
    Obviously, being attractive person has being attractive gives you a lot of advantages.  Girls and men Men and women will are jealous to of you, and even though it's a little bit sad, even you will have more (possibilities to find more jobs).  more job opportunities 


    * Being attractive is not everything
    Despite these advantages, being attractive is not everything.  In (better) higher level jobs you need to be really intelligent because people notice very quickly if you only have physical attractive looks and you haven't no brains. You should have care with that.   You have to be careful about that.


    * In Conclusion
    To sum up, you really need to be aware as that in the life the most important thing is who you are, not how attractive you are.

    Thanks so much for your review.
    It's very helpful for me.

    If you visit a city,you can see the museum that the city operates.

    -Museum is a little bit different from cities.  (The museums are a little different from city to city)


    Some museums show the special food of the city mainly.
    The other one Others show their own great history.
    For example, you can see the Bacjae culture and history in the western city (cities).  But you can see the Shilla culture in the eastern city (cities).

    About me....

    Hello, I'm Johan, I'm french, 14 years old, and I live in New-Caledonia. It's a French island near Vanuatu in the Pacific Ocean. I'm learning (I have been learning)  english since i'm (I was) 11, and japanese since last year.

    I've been a fan of several American artists, and that's what gave me the determination to learn English, because I wanted to unterstand everything my 'idols' were saying.

    Since I'm fluent in english, learning it sometimes annoys (bores) me now... But I keep learning it at school (I was taken in my school's "billingual class"), without pushing myself learning (to learn) English like I did in the past years.

     

    Though, I can say it's Japanese's turn... I love this language and I want to be able to speak it  the fastest as possible (as quickly as possible) I'm also learning Japanese at school, and I learn a lot by myself which makes me better at Japanese than the rest of my schoolmates... I also want to learn Korean later, and maybe chinese... 

    Thanks for reading and correcting. ^^

    Good and bad things about London

    All inmigrant knows  (All immigrants know /or/ Every immigrant knows)

    that arriving in a foreign country is hard but it is also exciting. I am not a new immigrant but it is really hard to start a new life in here. I don't know anybody and that makes me sad. I think about my friends, especially when I go outside. But then I think about my future, my main goal which is learning english fluently  (learning to speak English fluently)

    . I also think about the all (all the) good and bad things of London.

    On the one hand, London is a big city with a big parks where you can enjoy a walk either alone or accompanied, even with your dog, if you have one. That's important to me because I need to take time for myself, to listen to music and forget about all (everything) and stop thinking about it.
    Another good thing are (is) the people. There are many people incredibly friendly and kind. (incredibly friendly people -  adjective before the noun)

    On the other hand, a bad thing about London is that everything, or most of it is  (or most things, are) very expensive.  Another bad thing is that the young people, instead of elder, (I don't understand this part, maybe you mean 'unlike' and not 'instead')

     

    are very rude and loud. One day I saw a group of them on the bus, jumping and throwing food or rubbish on the ground.

     

    They could be 12 years, maybe.  (They were probably around 12 years old)

     

    That's so sad.

    Introduce Myself!

    Hi! My name is Cho Suyeon. I'm a university student from Korea.  (when the 'u' sounds like "you" we don't put "an", only "a"  ex: a union, a university, a unicorn.  But when 'u' sounds like 'uh' we DO put an ex: an umbrella, an umpire)

     

    This year is my first year. My major is English! (Or, I'm majoring in English)  I chose to study English at Uni. because I've liked English a lot since I was young.  (present perfect - you liked Engish when you were young, but you still like English today, so you "have liked English" since you were young)

     

    I have been studying English for 10 years, but it's still not perfect. I want to study in Europe or in an English-speaking country like the US. I'm on vacation now, but I go to a private academy to study English, especially for test called the TOEIC.

    I like to watch movies, dramas and also TV shows, which is why I want to work in this field after I graduate from University. I also like to listen to music. Sometimes I play the piano. My favourite movie is Inception. I love that movie, so I have watched it many times. I also like Sherlock, a British drama! I like Action, SciFi, Drama (I hate horror movies).Taking photos is also one of my favorite things to do! I usually take photos of landscapes or of my daily life.

    I visited Guam, Japan, and the US when I was between the ages of 8 and 9 years old, and it influenced me a lot. I went to California, which was nice memory for me(even though can't remember much). Now I plan on going to Australia and New Zealand in December(for sightseeing)! I will visit Melbourne and Sydney but I'm still searching for places to visit in New Zealand. Please recommend a nice place to visit!

    My roommate

    I have a roommate during this summer vacation, she is my best friend in my life. She lives in my room with me because she has a part-time job near by school.
    I have a roommate who is still in bed sleeping when I come home at midday after my part-time job.

    She is like my housekeeper, who cleans my room and washes my clothes. I share my bed with her and she chats with me. I am in a good mood when we together but this weekend she went back home to celebrate her father's (birth)?day, that's why I feel a little bit bored.

    Imagination

    I don't have an imagination. (OR I have no imagination)  When I have a blank sheet in front me I don't know how to fill it, unless somebody asks me something. I watched a movie and the protagonist said "reading books kills the imagination". I don't think that, but it may be real;  I like to read books, and I have a lot of stories on my mind, but I can imagine a lot of things. I like CAD programs, but it isn't good because I don't have enough imagination to create anything good. What can I do? How can you improve your imagination? Any suggestions?

    Thank you very much.

    Greetings.
