- You can use both but the meaning is different. If you use 'very' that means 'to a great degree'. On the other hand, if you use 'too' it would imply that there is more than enough of something. For example: She ate too much. - this means that she ate more than enough, now she is full. She ate very much. - this means that she ate a lot of food. Let's use your examples. She works too much - She works more than needed She works very much - She works a lot. She sleeps very much in a day - She sleeps a lot. She sleeps too much in a day - She sleeps more than it's necessary. Hope this helps! :)0 votedNovember 22, 20180
DAREDEVIL
I used to watch some tv TV shows on Netflix and one of them is Daredevil, a blind lowyer lawyer who goes after bad guys during the night when the justice is not done by law. I wondered how the real blind people live. What I realized was amazing. They are able even to play soccer. I googled for an instituition institution which takes care of blind people and helps them how to live their lives in a better way. I went there to visit the instituition institution and to for me that was a big step on in my life.0 votedNovember 22, 20181English Day 32
Thirty-two is not my favorite number. I like more numbers from one to ten and eight hundred thousand. That's a terrifying number if to we convert it into people perished for nothing on the territory populated only by three million people, including foreigners. I wish the statistics were wrong, but it's not as far as it's confirmed by many eyewitnesses of those infamous events. Those events took had been taken place in their "the dark times". It would be wrong to praise them or criticise criticize them. The point is to prevent a recurrence of the situation in the future. Unfortunately, the modern world isn't up to the task. We won't live in peace until we stop killing our own kind for the imaginative supremacy of ourselves.0 votedNovember 22, 20181Cellular phone - a great invention or a harmful device?
A smartphone. It is the a device that we all use. We use it when we need to make a call, send a message or find some information that we need. We can even say that smartphones became the fastest and the most productive secretaries. And yet many people claim that a mobile phone is the most harmful device nowadays. But is it true?
My contention is that smartphones are the irreplaceable assistants and that we just need to learn to use them correctly. To begin with, a phone is one of the means of communication. It helps to stay in touch with people that are far away from us. There are many applications that offer voice and video calls for free. Furthermore, telephones are very compact. They easily fit in our pockets, so that we can take them everywhere we go and use (them) whenever we need. Additionally, modern phones have lots of useful functions. They combine several devices that we use all the time: alarm, camera, flash drive, notebook and so on.
However, more and more people tend to limit the time they spend using a phone. Firstly, they are convinced that smartphones make people less communicative. A common situation: friends sitting next to each other don’t talk but stare at the screens of their phones. Secondly, they believe that electromagnetic radiation cause dizziness, discomfort, nausea, and many other illnesses. And, as a result, damage our brains and bodies.
I cannot agree with this opinion because I think that smartphones make a huge positive impact on human communication. In the past, we were only able to talk with a limited amount numberof people that surrounded us. But nowadays we can make new friends from all over the world and talk to them. And as for the radiation, there are no facts that prove this due to the absence of any long-term studies.
To sum up, I would like to say that despite many legitimate reasons for us to be concerned about smartphones, I am convinced that these devices make our lives easier and happier.0 votedNovember 22, 20180A lunch
At noon, I had lunch with my co-workers in an inexpensive restaurant close to my office around my office corner with my co-workers. We entered in and luckily got a table in a busy lunchtime because I had a reservation under my name. The waitress gave us our the menu and told us she was your waitress for the day lunch. When While we were still checking working on the menu, the three young guys behind us began talking very loudly aloud and made so much noise. We got were there first, but these guys were impatient and asked our the waitress to serve for them first. They told the waitress there’s no way they were going to wait waiting for. The waitress told them they should wait a minute until she had our order first, and but these guys totally got angry and shouted. I couldn’t believe that these guys were so rude.
P.S.: I like to taste my food, I don’t like to the waste it and I just order the amount that is enough for me, no more no less. that’s alright. If I can’t finish it, I will bring it home, too.
Who knows that the meals in our plates, every morsel of them comes with toil and pains.For every morsel on our plates somebody toiled and worked hard.

Dear native speakers,
the task was to rewrite some passages and "to express the intended meaning in the clearest fashion". Unfortunately, I cannot show the original text (way too wordy); here's the fruit of my pains) How does it look, to your mind?
Feel free to correct/comment upon what doesn't seem natural to you. Thanks in advance!
John Griffiths was fidgeting with his moustache like women fidget with their curls. He hated waiting, and now he had to wait. He had himself to blame, anyway. The Smithsons’ girls decided to go out, and he knightly offered to accompany them whenever they wanted. Stupid it was of him, indeed. As if he did not know how perfectly unreliable they were! Unreliable people do get on John’s nerves; besides, he knew too well these pretty careless creatures would let him down again. It was destined to be. John had even promised to drive the Smithsons’ girls home in Charles’ car, and where the hell this car w…
A lorry swooshed by, its driver certainly eager to crush John’s feet. “Damn it all!”, yelled John silently. “Neither for love nor money will I fall in this trap again! No woman, either young or old, will ever make me forget my principles. Had I not been such a chivalrous fool…”. At that very moment, he caught a sight of a car which looked strangely familiar. A rosary of the Smithsons’ girls was laughing inside.
He was going to stop them whatever it took. These pink-cheeked young ladies could mock him for being late – it might not be allowed to happen! John tore along the street, as graceful as a young deer, dashing and unstoppable. His hat flew away and flopped in a gutter, and he did not have a second to stop and pick it up. “Time,” thought he, “if only I were on time! If only they saw me and recognized me!”. Luck favored John. He was noticed and greeted in the friendliest fashion ever.
“Thank God”, thought the poor gasping runner. “If I had to rush on for another minute, I would probably faint”.0 votedAugust 31, 20181Phrases about positive happy feelings

I am not the kind of person who can keep doing something somthing for a long time. Learning foreign languages is a sort of challenge for me.
The reason why I desire to get better improve my English is to communicate with other people who come from different countries. I am not sure if I can could make it, so I just keep practicing practising my English everyday just for myself.0 votedAugust 31, 20180
