    practica con el preterito y el imperfecto Infinito En la película corta, Infinito, vemos una chica camina a un parque. Era otoño o quizás, invierno. El sol se ponía y la chica se sentó en un banco. Ella saqué un cigarro y empecé a leer un libro con la tapa escondida. De repente, había una puerta enfrente de ella. La miré con confusión. La chica se puso de pie y caminó hacia la puerta. Se detuvo enfrente de la puerta y puso su mano en la perilla. La estaba abierta. Ella entré por la entrada y estaba en un corredor largo con luz fluorescente. Parecía ser un hospital psiquiátrico o algo por el estilo. Detrás de la chica, la puerta se cerró repentinamente. Corrió de vuelta a la puerta pero era cerrado. ¡Ay no! En la próxima escena, era un chico en el mismo parque. Él vio el libro que ella se cayó y lo recogió. Él comenzó a leer y podíamos ver que el libro se llamaba Hoya negro, agujero espacio-temporal y máquinas del tiempo. La puerta reapareció y él caminó hacia la puerta a seguir el mismo destino... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVqZWA5EuG8&t=5s

    Brilliant legislator

    Due to the position of Taiwan, and maybe perhaps also due to global warming, summers are getting hotter and hotter these years days.
    The temperature went up to 35 Celsius degrees Celsius this year which created the highest record (Specify when and where - "the highest record to date in Taiwan").
    Therefore, people asked the government to install air-conditioners in every public elementary and high schools so kids students will stop suffering from the heat. ("every" makes it clear that there are multiple schools so you do not need to +s on schools. Also, kids works but your writing has a professional tone so it is better to use a more specific word.)

    However, the government rejected the claim request for the following reasons :
    1. They are afraid that the usage of electricity will hugely increase.
    2. There is a lack of funds.
    3. They want to protect the children's health (from ... more details would be helpful here :) 

    There's a legislator who happens to have had studied in Germany.
    She said, "Germany is cool without air-conditioners. Taiwan should take follow the example of Germany and learn from them!"
    Oh my god, she is so such a genius! She should totally get a Nobel Prize of Energy or stuff something like that! She deserves that! it.


    Haha! Did she consider how different the climates are of Germany and Taiwan?! This is a great summary of the story. Because it starts with a more academic or professional feel, it is better to use more specifics, just to add more detail and clarity to the summary. Your sarcasm at the end is very funny. Great job!

    My lungs at bay - do you mean trying not to loose your breath? Or trying not to gag? Other things you might say: "trying to keep my breath steady" "trying not to gasp in disgust" etc. Good luck! It seems that you are doing well in your English studies :)

    You could say something like "the duck is perfectly crispy outside but the meat is still moist."

    I thought it was a fantastic critical look at America.

    Does he say "How is it going?" or "How is it going ON?" Either way, it is a general question to ask "How are things in your life?" Usually, native speakers would respond with "It's going well, thanks. How are you?" Or "I'm alright, how about you?" The question is just a conversation starter. You can add more details to your answer. For example, "It's going really well! I got a job promotion/met a girl/went to a fun party last night." or "I'm alright. I had a really long day at work so I'm feeling pretty tired." Hope that helps!

    It is another way of saying "Where are you going?" but it is less direct. i.e. your friend walks out of the room and you say, "Where are you going?" "Where are you off to?" is more casual and has a tone of opening a conversation. If you are sitting next to a stranger at an airport bar, you might ask them "Where are you off to?" It is a good way to start a conversation, like you are curious about the persons answer rather than like you NEED to know their answer? Another way you might hear the same question is "Where are you headed?"

    a number + odd is just an approximation. We would say "I've passed twenty odd summers" or "I've passed twenty-something summers". It is more than twenty but they are not giving you an exact number.

    Both are okay but they have different feelings: "We could visit the elderly who are really alone" - they are physically alone; there is no one around to help them. Maybe you would help them with cleaning, cooking, organizing their homes, etc. "We could visit the elderly who are really lonely" - they are psychologically alone; they don't have friends or family that keep them mentally engaged. In this case, you would just go and talk with them, enjoy a tea together and provide them with friendship.

    Sobre yo Hola, soy Brittany y estoy estudiando el español. Soy de Atlanta, Georgia en los estado unidos pero ahora mismo estoy viviendo en Corea del Sur para ser maestra de inglés. ¡Corea me parece extraña pero sólo he vivido aquí por 3 meses! Toda la comida aquí es con ajo y un pimiento rojo muy picante. Es más picante que el uno tenemos en los estados. La primera vez lo probaba, sudé un montón. Hay muchas sopas y heladerías pero usualmente la gente come parilla coreana. Es puerco o carne con muchos guarniciones y por supuesto, ajo y pimiento rojo. Suena sabroso y algunas veces lo es pero yo extraño la comida latino y italiano que cocino mucho en los estados. Quiero cilantro y maíz y frijoles negras. Hay pizza aquí pero siempre es un poquito dulce. Todos las comidas aquí son dulce también, es una otra cosa. Quieres palitos de queso? Hay batata dentro. Quieres papas fritas? Hay azúcar en la parte superior.
