Lei Sheng named China's flag bearer at Rio Olympics

Lei Sheng, a male athlete of fencing foil, will be the flag bearer of Chinese delegation at the opening ceremony of the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games, reported by xinhuanet.com.

The 32-year-old athlete won men's fencing foil individual event at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. He was the first ever male foil Olympic champion in China.

He was also named the flag bearer of Chinese delegation during the opening ceremony of the 17th Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea.

China's flag bearers at the previous summer Olympic Games were all basketball players since 1984.

Before the announcement, basketball player Yi Jianlian and swimmer Ning Zetao were also popular candidates for the Olympics flag bearer.

This is almost perfect! The only errors were a couple of missing articles. When refering to specific, known, and definite nouns such as the Olympics opening ceremony and the 2012 Olympic games, you should use the definite article "the".

A novel

I read a novel online about ghosts with my smartphone yesterday night. It told a story about a man who encountered a skilled master who can capture the vicious ghosts. There was a hotel in a distance distant village, where a woman and her baby were killed there ten years ago. This hotel changed several managers and each of them run ran it badly and lost money. There was were extremely weird things happened happening there and a man committed suicide from jumping out off of the roof. The master captured the ghosts with his magic tools at last. In addtion,  addition, it was too terrible for me to go to sleep. I never believed there are were genuine ghosts in the world before but after reading this novel I believe it.

Articles in English are tricky. If you use the definite article "the" that indicates that you are referring to something known and specific. Because vicious ghosts have not been mentioned before this, using the article "the" is incorrect because those who read this would not know which vicious ghosts you are referring to. However, the second time, you do want to use the article because you are then referring to known, specific ghosts. 

"Distance" is a noun. You cannot use nouns to describe other nouns. Therefore, you want to use the adjective "distant" instead to describe the village. 

Verb tenses are also tricky. "Run," "believe," and "are," are all present forms of the verb. However, the rest of the sentences refer to the past. Therefore, you want to use the past tenses of the verbs by changing them to "ran," "believed," and "were" respectively. "Was" is used to refer to singular subjects. Because the subject of "There was extremely weird things happening there," is "things" -- and therefore plural -- you should change the verb "was" to "were" to agree with the subject. "Happened" is in the correct tense, which is the past. However, for this sentence, you are referring to a progressive action, or a recurring action in the past. Therefore, you should use the past progressive and change "happened" to "happening."

Good question! Saying "Pick up your dog mess!" has the same general meaning as saying "Scoop up your dog mess!" in that it's an order to clean up after the dog. However, the precise meaning is slightly different. To scoop up is to take something up either with a scoop or in a scoop-like motion. To pick up is to take something up with your hands or an instrument, in a similar motion to picking fruit.

MEETING DONALD TRUMP

Despite the political content, I'm looking for a correction :D Thank you very much in advance!!

Among important American people I find hard the choice of meeting one of them. However, my interest on one nowadays topic has risen pretty much during the last months: American elections. Donald Trump has sparked my curiosity, so I think this person is the one I would want to meet if I had the opportunity. Nevertheless, what drives my choice is not the admiration for this man, but his surprising retrograde ideas.

Listening to his political program makes me think about how humanity can go back in time and be less tolerant, more racist and selfish. Nowadays we are facing the globalization from first row and the developed countries are those which are steering the process. It happens to me that populism, which Donald Trump ahead try call globalization to a halt. Apart from political opinion and international relations, I would be very glad if this person could give me a plausible explanation of his way of thinking, because I do not really understand his reasons.

In addition, I would like to propose to him a diverse difficult situation to figure out how he would act or respond. In my opinion, his measures will never work at a  in the long term, causing much many more problems when trying to resolving resolve only one.
Segregation is one of the main idea in Donald Trump’s party. Maybe hidden at first sight, it is clearly related with closing the borders which is his principal goal. I would want to have the occasion of telling him real stories about refugees and immigrants from Europe. Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan are some countries where the population are utterly desperate for escaping escape. They deserve to live in good conditions, far from war and suffering, not frightened of being killed.

Because "him" is an indirect object, it must have the preposition "to" in front. This is because he is receiving something from you: a proposal. Also, you must use the indefinite article "a" before "situation". 

"Diverse" suggests various kinds situations. Did you mean difficult or challenging?

"In" is the correct preposition for this context. Because "long term" is definite, you should use the definite article "the" rather than the indefinite article "a".

"Much" is used for uncountable nouns, such as substances. Because "problems" is a countable noun, the adjective "many" should be used instead. 

"Resolving" is a progressive verb. It describes an ongoing action. In this case, you should use the infinitive "to resolve" to describe what he is "trying" to do.

In this context, you should use a noun rather than the progressive verb "escaping". The noun shows what the populations are desperate for.

Sadly, not until the voters of Donald Trump open the eyes, will America be safe of going back in history, committing dramatic mistakes.

MEETING DONALD TRUMP

Among important Americans people I find hard the choice of meeting one of them. However, my interest on one nowadays current topic has risen pretty much during the last months: American elections. Donald Trump has sparked my curiosity, so I think this person is the one I would want to meet if I had the opportunity. Nevertheless, what drives my choice is not the admiration for this man, but his surprisingly retrograde ideas.

When writing in English, you want to use as few words as possible. Using fewer words makes your sentences flow better. You can change "American people" to "Americans". 

Do you mean "I have a hard time choosing which one I would like to meet"?

"Nowadays" is a noun used to refer to current or present times. However, because it is a noun, it cannot be used to describe another noun ("topic"). You should instead use an adjective, such as "current" or "present". 

"Surprising" is an adjective. Because it is an adjective, it can only be used to describe nouns, and it cannot be used to describe other adjectives. In order to correctly express your surprise at "retrograde ideas," you should turn the adjective "surprising" into an adverb by adding "-ly" to the end of "surprising". This would make the adverb "surprisingly" which can describe the adjective "retrograde".



Listening to his political program makes me think about how humanity can go back in time and be less tolerant, more racist and selfish. Nowadays we are facing the globalization from first row and the developed countries are those which are steering the process. It happens seems to me that populism, which Donald Trump ahead try heads, tries to call globalization to a halt. Apart from political opinion and international relations, I would be very glad if this person could give me a plausible explanation of his way of thinking, because I do not really understand his reasons.

"Happens" describes an event that took place. To say "It happens to me" suggests that something is acted upon you on a recurring basis. To describe thoughts that occur to you rather than actions that are performed, you want to use a word like "seems" instead.

In addition, I would like to propose to him a diverse situation to figure out how he would act or respond. In my opinion, his measures will never work at a long term, causing much more problems when trying to resolving only one.

"The" is an English definite article that is used to communicate a definite or specific noun to the listener or reader. "A" or "an" are indefinite articles that are used to describe non-definite, singular nouns. So when he says "THE unchanging value," he is speaking of a specific unchanging value. If he were to say "AN unchanging value," he could be speaking of any unchanging value, not necessarily the specific value that he means to describe. Therefore, yes, he is using the article correctly and it is necessary to communicate his meaning effectively. *Note: a preposition is used to describe space/time relationships between nouns. They describe the position of something. For example, in the sentence "Mary sits on the chair," the word "on" is the preposition because it tells us the position in which Mary sits. Prepositions and articles have very different language functions, which may be why you were confused.
