A Journey to Iran-Aug.18th, 2015. 【The Tranquility of Tehran (Part 3)】
Walking on the northern hill of Tehran, I was teasing with falling leaves. All the paths within Sadabad Complex were covered with these golden pages fallen from the intangible poet sitting atop the trees. These local people formed a beautiful view with their casualness. Young lovers were strolling side by side, whispering their own stories; some girls were frolicking under the trees; some were wandering alone, with traces of solemn grace shining in their eyes; some took off their hijabs, capturing a short moment of freedom, letting their curly brown hair float in the air...
The night is falling down, slowly and quietly. I look out from the window of my room, staring at the landscape of Tehran. Tehran's solemnity is revealed by its gentle smile; Tehran's beauty is crowned with its modesty; Tehran's busy streets are hushed by a bright moon; Tehran's heart is beating on this page with my pen of honesty. Now, all of a sudden I hear someone is singing outside, his melodious voice is like a spell of wind meandering through prairie, with a slight touch of bitterness and sorrow. I don't know who he is and or who he is missing, but I'd love to hear him singing and singing. As for me, I have already taken a shower, thus enjoying this moments of easiness ease. With the song lingering around, I close my eyes, leaving the street lights of Tehran to shine behind the curtain.0 votedDecember 23, 20152Just about me
'Today is my favorite day!' I say it every day just to be happy. I like to start my day from smile and fun!
Two years ago I couldn't belive believe it helped and I would be a person who loves life, people and everything around him. Now I can say it's a one of the most usefull useful methods to be happy. At the same time I was a very critical person, I assessed people aronund around me if I was the best and the cleverest person. (I compared myself to everyone around me to see if I was the best and cleverest person) (But I was not a great person...it was the main problem)
Now I've realized that my first step was in the understanding of key gaps. There were the high self-esteem, dislike of people and the high expectations. After that I started to make a plan of changes. Some points were very difficult to me but I managed them. I started to notise notice good qualities in other people, make them sincere complements, try not to be a strict person, be open-minded and nice. At that period I started to learn art, foreign languages and literature, to visit interesting places and so on.
There were the best and necessary changes in my life!(Your English is excellent! You should be so proud of yourself! And I am very proud of you for making all the changes you have to your life and coming through all the challenges a better person, I wish you well and good luck for your future!)

Since I came to China, plenty of time has passed me by. Since then, I have zoomed in focused on learning Chinese and there has been few chances to speak in English. it has been a while to write since I last wrote something down in English so writing in English is pretty akward awkward and I forgot tons tonnes of words.
Yesterday, I met a friend from the USA. His Chinese is not strong enough to have a conversation, so we talked in English. But when I talked to him, I was so confuesed confused about English, even when I tried to speak easy words, I had a trouble on making a perfect sentence that I could speak perfectly a few months ago. It embarrasses me. Because I had not thought that it would take not that much time to realised how soon I would forget what I studied.
The prime problem is that when something I want to speak flash upon my mind, my head goed in English my mind goes blank and nothing in English comes up. Instead, Chinese words come to my mind. So While while I speak English, Whithout without realizing it, I blurt out Chinese words. I think it is because that recently I use Chinese more that than I use English, though when I only learned English, no matter how difficult and uncomfortable, I had never used Korean while Speaking speaking. And though lots of parts of Although the grammar between English and Chinese are more similar than contains more similarities than between Korean and Chinese, because more than 70% of Korean words comes from Chinese, when is it comes to words, Korean and Chinese are linked strongly and it may cause the problem. I feel that whatever I am familiar with, a great wall comes between mother tongue and foreign language. So to come over overcome it, there is a only way to practice practice is the only way.
I know that sort of writing is so boring to read but at the end of the writing, I can feel it has definitely become easier.0 votedDecember 23, 20150- Hi, Three and six depends on the currency and what era/ country your book is set in. If it is English from a period before 1971 this may be referencing the use of shillings and pence in which your answer would be three shillings and six pence. If not reply to me with the era and country and I will look into what the term means :)0 votedDecember 23, 20150
- What is 弓道? What is it like? (Answers in Japanese would be preferred with English translation) I know 弓道 is the way of the bow when translated to English but I want to know more about it, what is it like to learn about it, where does it come from in history? In Japanese if that is possibleDecember 23, 201530
- Hello Saddiq, I am a native English speaker and the main differences but American English and British English are simply that words like colour do not have a u in them in American English so they spell it as color. There are some dialect differences but in England if someone was to use the American term it would usually pass unnoticed with the exception of the term pants. In America pants are another word for trousers but in England pants is a reference to undergarments and so these can be confused. The accents are almost negligible they are different in the two countries but after visiting America several times communication is still easy to achieve regardless of using American English or British English I hope this helps!0 votedAugust 17, 20151
Please, Check my essay
Although some researchers believe that a large portion of the budget should be spent on classes and libraries, in fact, maybe they make this mistake because they do not think, that to improve the level of knowledge, we should increase the level of students’ spirit. Sports and social activities are ways to do this. The activities can decrease the stress felt by the students as well as increase their confidence. Also, the activities can prevent neurosis, in the light of the fact that we argue in favor of financial support being equal to those.
It is a reality that Sport and social activities can relieve our stress. Stress is an element that makes the speed of learning decrease. For instance, when we want to concentrate on our tasks like writing, stress is as an annoying element. Stress decreases our efficiency and we can not write it properly. In studies that have been recently carried out, among one thousand volunteers. Experts have been able to determine from almost 40 percent of volunteers, that their stress increases if there are not convenient places to play.
One of the main factors to increase learning is confidence. There are different ways to improve this element, one of these ways is sports. For example, if a girl is considered not to have the proper shape dictated by society, she has increased stress and thereford cannot focus on her task. Thereupon, it might be safe to say that she suffers from a lack confidence. What ways has she to increase her confidence? Obviously, going to the gym is a possible solution. However the other way is to attend social activities because speaking with the friends can develop her confidence. These opportunities can improve the learning level and help to achieve the final goal of the universities and colleges.
To put it in a nutshell, the conclusion that can be drawn from the above discussion is that there are conditions that the money should be spent on the sport and other social development oppurtunities because this movement can soothe the stress and improve the confidence of students and other people.0 votedMay 11, 20150My card visit
