Which surprised me is Tom's accent.没有“外国人”的口音,这很加分。I'm sorry for the Internet, I think next time will be fine......If there's a chance ...:)

    方法,方式,手段,措施。。。到底有什么区别!?

    从第一次碰到这些词的时候,头一直疼着!
    每次去使用这四个词之一,我都用错,不知道如何克服这个近义词的障碍。
    希望你们英明的italki网民可以明确一下~

    第一

    我还是不太明白方式和方法的区别。据我所知,方式和方法都是指一种做法。

    比如说(请原谅我奇怪的例子):

    ”用筷子吃饭是很多亚洲国家的吃饭方法。”
    “对语言来说,最有效的学习方法就是每天花至少一个小时练习阅读,写作,听力,和口语。“
    ”我朋友说他有很多交女朋友的方法,但是他却是单身~“

    在这些句子里可不可以把”方法“换成”方式“?

    第二
    我也不太清楚怎么识别“手段“和”措施”。 据我所知,它们的定义是 "measure or procedure"

    “
    为了避免再碰到经济危机,政府已经实施了三个措施"。 这个说法正确吗?

    我不知道怎么正确地用“手段”。。。只知道他的意思是“steps, method, means".

    在考试中的紧张情绪 在学生的生活中压力最大的时候一定是考试的时候。学生所付的努力,所出的汗,所流的泪都在那两个小时中才知道是否值得。在我人生中我过不少的试,从我的角度来看,在考试中最重要的是不要半途而废。虽然在考试的环境中时间看似过得特别慢,但是,每个考试都有尽头。坚持到左后一秒,一定会更值得。

    短文练习: 通讯,随时,促进,普遍,距离 必须包括的单词: 通讯,随时,促进,普遍,距离 字数限制: 80左右 短文字数: 145字。。。(还算“80左右”吗? 嘻嘻) 以前,如果你朋友住在远处,为了跟他联系只能给他发封信。如此,可能要等几个星期才被他收到。但是,自从中国三大龙头通讯公司的成立以后,联系朋友方便了到可以随时随地给他打电话。每年这些公司继续促进新的产品和服务。未来我希望通讯服务会又免费又普遍。如此,不管你和朋友之间的距离多远,都可以保持联系。

    "I will pay you" Example: I have money. I will give it to you. (In this situation, maybe you worked for me, or maybe you have sold me something and I haven't paid you yet). "I will get you paid" Example: 3 People. Me, you and your boss. You tell me you haven't been paid yet. I tell you I will talk to your boss, and make sure he pays you. "I will get you paid" means "I will do something that will ensure you get paid" (like talk to your boss). A better expression would be "I will make sure you get paid", rather than "I will get you paid" (sounds a little awkward, although it does make sense). You may have seen the same grammar structure in the expression "I will get you laid". This is a very colloquial expression though. Again it implies that there are three people, and the person who is saying it is acting as someone who will ensure that something will happen. Hope that makes sense

    应该吸取的教训! 上周我接收了一家国际贸易公司的面试。说实话,我跟主任相处得像老乡一样好,而且他所问的问题我都能信心地回答。面试快要结束的时候,主任把合同拿出来了,说: ”如果你像为这家公司工作,在这里签字吧“。没想到他会这么快地提供合同,十分吃惊了。因为我被这件事慌张了,不小心地签字。后来我发现合同的条件都不公平。请吸取训教!签字之前好好浏览合同!

    宿舍,陌生,沟通,适应,心情 当我搬到北京大学宿舍的时候,一个中文词我都不会说。由于这个沟通的问题,我没办法交朋友。周围的人都像陌生人一样。因此,我的心情越来越忧郁。但是,有一天,一个英语讲得非常流利的中国人突然出现在我旁边,开始跟我聊天。随后我们成为了好朋友。由于他的友情,我渐渐地适应了宿舍的生活。

    please give me a correction

    ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

    I know (认识) a girl whose father has lived in America for many years and has obtained a green card. Her mother was (已经被允许了吧) permitted to reunite with him. The girl was (因为弟二段说”many years later", 第一段不可以说"is",因为整段是过去式)waiting for confirmation (比'news'自然一点) that her mother can take her abroad, however, when her mother contacted her, it was ("it was"就是指“原因是。。。”) to tell her that she has a new baby brother. Because of her new baby brother's impending arrival, everyone ignored(/forgot) the fact that she was meant(/supposed) to be coming.

    More than a year later, she (finally) went to America to study ("transferred to study abroad"这句话不强调她要去哪儿。因为她一直想去美国,这句话应该包括“America"). Touching the new (new听起来是新买的,但是你想表示的是这些家具是不熟的,对吗?) unfamiliar furniture (furniture has no plural form), and seeing her father who she hardly recognised ("如果她真的从来没有见过她父亲,你应该在第一段说一说。因为”a girl whose father has lived in America for many years"的含义就是她以前跟父亲在一起,但是由于某些原因,他搬家了到美国), she found herself feeling like a stranger in her own family. (在这句话里用'her own family"强调家庭感的缺乏)。

    Her biggest problem is language(/communication). She never learned English in her home country. Her level of English is equivalent to a seven year old. She can't even introduce herself, (这个说法自然一点), let alone understand the content in class. The kind teacher experiments with her in class by giving her a pen and allowing her to draw freely. (这最后的句子我不太明白。可不可以给我翻译一下?)


    (1) recognise: 承认,认出. Know: 认识

    (2) "Her mother is permitted to reunite with her father",这句话不是很清楚。第二个"her"可以指她的母亲的父亲,也可以指她自己。所以,为了不免误解,应该把"her father换成"him".

    (3) "equivalent to" 是固定词语。 "equivalent + to"

    (4) Let alone 这个语法点,连接两个句子。正确用法就是在 "let alone"的前面,必须是否定式。所以,"She can't even introduce herself/she can't even get through her self-introduction, LET ALONE understand the content of the class.

    (5) in the country 是“国内”, 对吗?在英语上我们不会这么说。你可以说: "in her home country", "in her home town", "at home" (at home有的时候也是指自己的国家)

    Interesting story! It made me want to continue reading and find out what happens. 加油,朋友。

    HSK 5 短文练习: 结合一张图片写短文 (part b) 题目:附件的照片 字数限度:80字左右 字数总共: 208字 (包括标点) 最近我跟我女朋友一起去了大理参加我们好朋友的婚礼。因为大理是中国最浪漫的城市之一,他们决定了在洱海的旁边摆婚礼。收到了邀请信的时候我有点糊涂了,因为在信上说婚礼是晚上10点开始的。但是我们一达到就恍然醒悟了:在天空上的满月被洱海的水面映着,造成了十分浪漫的气氛。我把照相机拿出来了,开始拍视频的时候,大家突然开始唱“月亮代表我的心”。让人很感动。从那天以后,我女朋友每天都喜欢看那片视频,经常问我什么时候要结婚。。。

    据我所知 to the best of my knowledge... 练习的时间 refers to a specific period/length of time e.g. 如果你想考得好,我建议你增加练习(中文)的时间 If you want to do well in the test, I recommend you increase your practice time (for Chinese). 练习的时候 refers to a general point in time 练习(中文)的时候,我需要安静的地方。 When I practice (Chinese) I need a quiet place.
