Shadi is a very dedicated boy. Unfortunately I did not understand his requests, as I started from the beginning with the explanations of the Latin, but he was not satisfied. A good study of Latin involves patience and time, to understand each part of the grammar. I advise the student to prepare specific topics to ask in the lesson, and some exercises to be evaluated by the teacher, next time, as some topics, such as declinations, are to be memorized, explanations on this can only be translations

    Cold bamboos lean over the valley creek. How many stones are lying here!... The men are like proud bamboos and rigorous pines.

    When an English speaker sets out to learn other languages at school or in private, the most common need is not to communicate with people speaking the language, since English is the lingua franca of the world. Indeed, when Americans travel to Europe, the locals are eager to show off their English. Preparing for annual vacations that last a few days are simply not worth the effort in developing writing and speaking skill. Therefore there is no practical need for communication for leisure purpose, not to mention the cheap cost of hiring translators for business purpose.  Rather, a more reasonable motivation stems from a desire of personal refinement and aesthetic edification. Therefore, the most important aspect should be comprehension, which allows the learner to become well versed in literature, art and history of a non-anglophone culture.

    当下流行的审美标准推崇简洁流畅,用词生动形象,有幽默感,能准确传达作者的感想。文风要搭配内容基调。常见短句,动词多,形容词少,语句短促有力,节奏感强。 切忌堆叠辞藻,滥用艳俗的修辞方式和成语。编辑称这些为cliché。比喻要subtle。复杂的长句、庄重的语调和高深的词汇一般是十八世纪的时尚。想了解当代权威的散文标准,推荐读纽约客杂志、纽时books of the year、各报纸saturday review。

    Only written in German. This meaning is obvious if you understand the rest of the sentence.

    A company is typically a corporation owned by a large group of shareholders, who individually have limited liabilities. A firm can refer to a partnership, like an architect or law firm, typically owned by fewer people than a corporation, which can have unlimited liabilities for the partners. A firm can refer to a corporation as well, but a company cannot refer to a partnership.

    Not only is the emigration of overseas Chinese an important chapter in the history of migration in the world, but it also plays a positive role in the cultural social and economic development in Kaiping, the homeland of a significant overseas Chinese population. From the California Gold Rush in the nineteenth century to the Reform and Opening Up, three waves of emigration have taken place in Kaiping, Guangdong. The unfolding of these episodes reveals how emigration is conditioned by the difference in the levels of social economic development and in social systems between China and the destination countries, as well as by the immigration policies in the host countries. Importantly, chain migration is made possible by the local social structure based on corporate form of kinship. The century-long history of emigration in Kaiping helps shape the values, social norms and mentality of local people and nurtures a unique culture of emigration, which proves to be a long-lasting trend with deep ramifications.

    这里是侗族最为集中的区域,是侗族传统保存最好的区域,也是侗族村落文化景观最为典型的区域。 This is the area where the Dong population is most concentrated, Dong culture best preserved, and where quintessential Dong village scenes can be found. 侗族主要分布于贵州省的黎平、从江等县市,广西壮族自治区的三江、龙胜等县(自治县),此外在湖北省鄂西土家族苗族自治州的恩施、宜恩等县市也有侗族分布。 The Dong population mostly inhabit Liping and Congjiang in Guizhou, and Sanjiang and Longsheng in Guangxi. There are also some Dong people living in Enshi and Yien in Exi Prefecture, Hubei. Additional Details: 现仅有以贵州省黎平县为中心辐射从江、榕江以及广西三江县、湖南通道县等的一小块区域,其侗族村寨完整保留下了侗族的聚落形态、建筑风貌、生活方式和文化事项. Today only in a small radius centered in Liping, Guizhou reaching as far as Congjiang and Rongjiang in Guizhou, Sanjiang County, Guangxi, and Tongdao County, Hunan, do Dong villages still preserve their traditional settlement pattern, architecture, lifestyle and culture.

    There are a couple issues with your translation: ages means 时代; ‘have not often given any just occasion to envy in those who look up to them from a lower station’ means that the commoners have not been given reasons to envy great people; 'apparent' means superficial, not obvious; the last sentence is completely mistranslated, because it means 'the other possibility is that people have the misconception that great people fail more often due to selective attention.' These are problems with reading comprehension in English, not with Chinese diction. Your Chinese is actually very good. 历时历代都有人认为优越的品性或者时运的对于幸福的促进没什么作用。身居低位者并没有被给予足够的理由来羡慕那些在地位和才华上都处于人生巅峰的人:或许是因为表面上的优越引诱野心膨胀,而理想更远大,就更容易破灭落空;或许是因为人世间充满苦难, 但是对伟人的 不幸记载更详尽,因为关注的程度更广泛,实际上他们的苦难只是更受瞩目,而非更多,抑或更深重。
