Here are some good expressions for agreeing and disagreeing: Agreeing: I agree (with you/her/him/them) You're absolutely right. I totally agree. I think so too. You could be right. Disagreeing: I'm afraid to say I disagree. I totally disagree. Absolutely not. I'm not sure about that. I don't think so. I hope that helps :-)

'Countenance' can also mean 'facial expression' or 'look' and 'hideous' can also mean 'evil' or 'offensive'. I think you'd have to read more to understand whether as you said, he was extremely ugly or had an evil look in his eyes, that stopped him from receiving the recognition that he deserved.

My job interview

Today I had an interview, I wanted to find a job as an English teacher at a cram school. I can't teach at regular schools because I didn't don't have a enter for "Teachers' Teaching Certificate examinations"before, so without a certificate, I can only teach at Cram schools, you know, Cram schools are prevailing in mainland China because almost every parent wants their baby to be NO.1 academically. School grades are everything for kids in China. Well, this afternoon, I stepped into their office and a beautiful young lady received greeted me, and she asked me questions about my basic information and then she asked me,"Mr. Wang, are you able to teach Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Biology?", and I thought to myself, "What? Aren't I applying for as an English teacher here, why on earth do I need to know how to teach all those subjects?have to be an 'almighty' god? I'm not a prodigy!", so I replied, "Sorry, ma'am, I can't, but I can learn how tonow!!". A doubtful questionable expression soon crawled appeared on her face and then spreaded all over it, "Were you good at these subjects when you were a middle school student?", she asked again, "Absolutely no "Not really" I replied, "but I wasn't very good at languages either and today, I'm proficient in languages. and I stunk at them, but I'm good at learning new things and I'm a fast learner really fast." I replied confirmly confidently. She looked at me and said, "Allow me to think about this, okay? I'll call you later".  Well, that was quite an interview!

That's a really good question! Just has two meanings, the first is the same as 'only' and can be used in the same sentence with the same meaning. The second meaning of 'Just' is similar to 'recently'. 1. Just = Only (same meaning) I have just one dog (it means the same as 'I have only one dog') 2. Just = Recently (different meaning to 'only') I have just finished reading an excellent book (I finished reading it in the recent past). With 'just', we have to be careful of the word order: 1. I just drank two cups of coffee (Means: I recently drank two cups of coffee) 2. I drank just two cups of coffee (Means: I drank only two cups of coffee, not more) I hope this helps :-)

They match my T-shirt and they're not expensive. A pair of jeans - one thing that has two parts - so it's a plural noun, therefore we use 'they'. Hope that helps :-)

They do have similar meanings, but flimsy is used to describe something, an object, material or excuse as being weak. Frail is used to describe a person's health or morals as being weak. I hope that helps :-)

Yes definitely.
