A story.
The lady regarded Jane from her head to her heel as if the girl were the a wax exhibit at some exhibition. [this sounds more natural but the original text is grammatically correct] She didn't try to say hello.
"She might suit," she said after a longer pause. "There is barely a real resemblance in the true meaning of the word, but the body and colourfulness colouration are very good, better than with the others."
"does she speak French?"
"Her French is excellent."
Jane felt like a dummy more and more. It was like both of those strange people hadve forgotten that there wasis a flaesh and blood person standing in front of them.
"However, will she be discrete?" The lady asked and unkindly cast her eyes unkindly at her.
Jane aimed her answer to the Lady.
"Until my work is explained to me I can hardly promise anything."
"The little girl is right about it," the Lady remarked. "I'd say she's intelligent - more than the rest. Tell me, little girl, are you brave too?"0 votedOctober 29, 20140Could anyone check whether what I wrote here is grammatically correct? Thank you very much :-))))
1. The next exercise is reducing the given relative clauses. 6 students were pointed to go to towards the board and told to write down their answers each time. Then, their answers were checked with the whole class. Only 18 questions were answered and 7 werewas left unsolved as homework for students. At the end of the lesson, she reviewed four main cases wherethat reducing relative clauses are used.
2. He was really creative to brainstorm students’ knowledge about Marie Curie and then elicited what they wanted to know about her. This is a creative and interesting way to give students a reason to read.
3. AfterDuring the observation, I gained valuable experience. First, I learned how to teach a class of relatively low level of proficiency.0 votedOctober 27, 20141A story.
"And now I'm going to explain everything to you. Not that there is too much of it. You know the history of my family. I'm most probably the only one left. I'm a woman so I can't ascend the throne. One would think they will would let me be. But wherever I go someone would try to make an attempt on my life. It's absurd, don't you think?"
"Oh yes," Jane said with feeling that something is being awaited expected of her.
"I spend a lot of time in seclusion where we can take necessary measures but I must take part in some social events. For instance during my stay here I can't miss out some affairs. So I shouldn't during my way back in Paris. In order You to should understand that I possess estates in HungaryMagyar. One can take a fantastic rest there. And I love the relaxation. Also - and I'm not supposed to tell you but I'm going to do it as I like your likeable face - some plans are contrived there [could I say: some plans are being contrived there?]. All in all it's very important for me not to be assassinated.""So I shouldn't during my way back in Paris." I am not sure what you mean with this sentence, maybe: "So I shouldn't take part (or miss out) in any affairs during my way back in Paris."
"some plans are being contrived there?" would suggest the activity is still ongoing, not yet complete, and so seems to be the better phrase to use. "some plans are contrived there?" would be correct if it was a place where plotting (had) happened previously but was not necessarily still happening at this time. Sorry, we have too many tenses in English!

When I wanna want to have cheesecake, I go to a coffee shop with my friend.
Yesterday, I was craving for some cheesecake, especially early in the morning.
Actually, I didn't know that it sells is sold at athe mart. :P
In addition, I'm on a diet. KKK (you probably don't want to use KKK in written correspondence as it is generally understood as an abbreviation for an extremely racist and socially unacceptable organisation)
I knew that I shouldn't have bought and known this cheesecake that sell was on sale at the mart.
But I bought and knew it.
I cannot stop eating this. I need to stay away from it. That's because it is of the kind of high in calories.
Awwww... It makes me want to eat it angain and again.0 votedOctober 11, 20141Do you have a driving licensce?
