- Yes, you can ask questions starting with don't, however I would only use it with friends or family as it is not a formal way to say the sentence. Instead of "Don't you eat pizza?" You could instead say (if you were talking to someone who you aren't that close to or requires respect/formal language) "Do you not eat pizza?"0 votedApril 24, 20160
I hate the idea of air condition
According to the arrangement of the head of our school, the workers are installing air-conditions for the students' dormitory now. For sure, it is the years of request from these students. Some of the dormitories are not airy and not well ventilated as the building is designed to be have a air-condition; so it has no windows to let the air in. However, it is the design that is the problem. If it is well designed, it won't need a air-condition.
I think air-condition is one of the reasons that support, and may even increase, global warming. I don't like the idea of air condition. Perhaps the cooling fans is enough for me to get through a hot summer. I know that the core problem of the global warming is industry and car emissions, but reducing the greenhouse gas of industry and things like this should be done by the higher-ups and people in power in the United Nations. What I can do to prevent this is convince people and peers alike to use air-condition less and open a window instead.
It has become an acute problem that the world is warmer than before. The air-condition that supposedly makes you cool at the present time, but ironically makes the world warmer than before, your world warmer than before. If there is no air-condition, or at least a decrease in air-conditioning, we can start to cool ourselves with nature, by forests and lakes, maybe the world could become a better place for us and the next generations to live. You know that the law of the conservation of the matter, air-condition may dissipate the heat in your house, but in order to do so, it ends up heating the planet instead.
At the 88th Oscar Reward, Leonardo Di Caprio also mentioned his work partners needed to travel to southern tip of the planet just to be able to find snow. The year of 2015 was the hottest year in recorded history.
According to a documentary about a polar bear, The ice of the Arctic Pole will be completely melted by the year of 2030. As a result, the polar bears' habitat would be gone, and it is more than likely that it will have taken the polar bears with it, leaving us with yet another extinct species because of our selfishness. Global warming is real. The area of Arctic Pole is decreasing. The polar bear, who is so cute, because of the GWP, are suffering to starve.
So consider this the next time you go to turn on the air-conditioning: Are you willing to do it, even if it destroys the planet and the polar bears?0 votedApril 20, 20161Is it appropriate to describe someone's character in a simple site?
These days I am always thinking about the question:Is it appropriate to describe someone's character in a simple site?
It's a interesting question! What's your opinion about a person's character? Many people are used to describe their families,friends,aquaintance or unfamiliar people's character in a simple one or two aspects. Such as , one would say his or her friend is kind and optimistic, another one would say one of his classmate is quiet , ect. Why would people think like that? Because usually they consider that their character should be like that since their behaviour seem in that ways. But is it certainly right?
No, I don't think so. To me, never can we describe a person's character in a simple site. A human's character is diversitied. It is not appropriate analyzing someones' character in only one or two words or from simple one or two site. Maybe one behaves passionate, conversational while inner is weak and unconfident. Who knows! You can never see someone's inner clearly.
Hello, my friends, all above is just my own superficial view. If you have time and patience and be convenient, please give my notebook a comment or correction if there are any mistakes. Thank you very much!0 votedApril 19, 20161Hi Zhang,
that seems like a really tight schedule!! But I definitely believe if you keep it up you can be fluent in English in a year.
Also, a good way of learning English is by using a visual reminder or something catchy so it sticks in your memory.
Also, I'm really interested in learning Chinese (and I'm a native English speaker), so maybe we can help each other out [emoji][emoji]
Best of luck!!!
