    [ Hong Kong Island on Sunday 53 ]

    Would you mind correcting my sentences? If you were me, how would
    you go about doing this?

    [Part One]

    I was really surprised in Hong Kong Island on Sunday. There were so many Philipino women chatting on the street. It seemed to be over ten thousand. They were gathering in groups. Some of them were having light meals and some snacks.

    When I was in Singapore, I saw scenes like this. There were so many South Asian people on the streets and parks near stations on Sunday. I realized that these were people from overseas.

    Before I visited in Hong Kong, I told my Hong Kong friend what I had seen on the street in Singapore.
    She said, " Hong Kong too. A lot of Philipinos work as maids there.

    Practice of "as soon as" and "in the meantime" and "as if"

    I'll let you know as soon as possible.
    He goes out again as soon as he gets home.
    I buy new things as soon as I get paid.

    I make a salad; in the meantime, I make soup.
    The baby plays by herself; in the meantime, I write sentences on italki.
    I watched the movie; in the meantime,I ate french fries. This is possible, but it would sound more natural as "I ate French fries while watching the movie."

    Hurry up! It looks as if it's going to rain.
    He's very smart.He looks as if he is a teacher.
    He's very active as if he were/was a puppy. You can say, "as active as a puppy" or "he looks like a teacher." If you want to use "as if" you need as if + noun + verb.

    You've done really well.

    Please check above are correct or not. Thank you for your help:)
    Have a good day!

    It's more like "more than" or "advantage over"

    Another possible collocation is "fussy eater."

    The first one is correct. If you make a difference, you do something to improve the world or make it a better place. Or you make a positive change to something. For example, you could say, "I want to become a doctor to make a difference to people's lives." Another example would be, "If I stop eating sugar, it will mKe a huge difference to my health."

    Are these sentences for IELTS? If so, you're well on track although you'd be better off not repeating "large" in the first sentence. If you say, "a wide range of product options" it would be a better collocation. The second sentence would be clearer if you say, "which confuses customers and eats up valuable time as they try to make a choice." The last sentence needs either "the" before "low" or to say, "low product prices." you could also take away a few words at the end and just say, "squeeze the suppliers".

    A better way to ask the question would be to say - What matters most in a loving relationship? As for the answer - I think you have to keep working at it and try to always be loving first and foremost.
