    Animal observation I recently began an online course on animal behavior, and this is what I wrote for mini-assignment. My task was to briefly observe animals around us. I walked along the river near where I live and I was able to observe quite a lot of animals. The river was frozen but I discovered some fish underneath the ice, though I wasn't able to figure out their species. I also spotted some wild ducks swimming in groups on the river, which turned out to be eastern spot-billed ducks after some research. They have a yellowish spot at the end of their beaks, and very bright orange-colored legs. Some time after I began to observe these ducks, a white heron and gray heron landed next to them. Herons(especially white and gray ones) are quite common in my town and they do not migrate in cold seasons. I didn't know that white and gray heron belong to the same species because in Korean they have completely different names. I caught a glimpse of magpies and tree sparrows flying in a flock but they were to far away to observe closely. Apart from these wild animals, I saw a pet dog and a stray cat. I'd like to observe one of these animal(maybe magpie or wild duck) more closely as I follow the rest of the course.

    I think these two examples are rather easy compared to others. Korean SAT test questions (especially math and english) are notoriously difficult but I don't really know how much they understand/can solve the questions. Korean schools use terrible methods to teach students English and they don't give enough time in tests just to make it more difficult.

    Korean SAT english test questions

    I recently came across some english test prep questions for 수능, which is a korean equivalent of SAT. They were mostly reading questions but then I found out that the writing is really poor( or at least I thought so..). What do you think of it? I'll copy it below. 


    28) Water has no calories, but it takes up a space in your stomach, which creates a feeling of fullness. Recently, a study found that people who drank two glasses of water before meal got full sooner, ate few calories, and lost more weight. You can put the same strategy to work by choosing foods that have a higher water content over those with less water. For example, the only difference between grapes and raisins is that grapes have about 6 times as much water in them. That water makes a big difference in how much they fill you up. You'll feel much more satisfied after eating 100 calories' worth of grapes than you would after eating 100 calories' worth of raisins. Salad vegetables like lettuce, cucumbers, and tomatoes also have a very high water content, as do broth-based soups.


    40) People tell about their own experiences all the time, but they do not necessarily tell about the same experience in the same way every time. The telling process, even in the relating of a firsthand experience, can be a highly inventive process. That is, the art of storytelling involves finding good ways to express one's experiences in a way appropriate to the listener. A fine line exists, therefore, between invented stories and the relation of firsthand experiences. The entertainment factor exists in relating firsthand experiences just as it does in inventing stories. Nobody wants to listen to what happened to you today unless you can make what happened appear interesting. The process of livening up an experience can involve simply telling that experience in such a way as to eliminate the dullest parts, or it also can involve 'improving' the dull parts by playing with the facts.


    And these are just two examples. I guess they are grammatically correct, but they look unnatural. Am I prejudiced? I'm really confused, so tell me if you think these two examples are natural. 

    It'd be fun if you explain what your country's english test questions look like(if you have any).

    +Any spelling mistakes in the texts would be mine!

    Ma personnalité Ma personnalité -Le principal trait de mon caractère Je suis très contradictoire. Toutes mes traits de caractère sont toujours en conflit. J'organise tout mais j'agis spontanément. J'aime la solitude mais je ne peux pas l'endurer pendant trop longtemps. Je suis timide et calme mais mes proches me disent d'arreter de parler et etre calm. Il y a beaucouop d'autres que je ne me souviens pas. Je suis courageuse ou pas, travailleuse ou pas, honnête ou pas, etc, etc, etc...... Dois-je ajouter que mon surnom d'enfance était "personne double"? -Mon occupation préférée A part le temps que je passe sur Internet, je m'occupe souvent à lire. J'aime bien des livres scientifiques ou plutôt, les non-fictions. Je regarde beaucoup de films sur week-end. J'aime aussi se disputer bruyamment(avec passion?) avec des gens (et gagner). -Quel serait mon plus grand malheur Ne pas avoir né dans le pays bilingue, Ne jamais avoir rêvé de voler.

    Mon logement Mon logement J’habite dans un appartement. Il y a deux pièces, deux salles de bains, et une cuisine. C’est assez lumineux, parce qu’on a beaucoup de grandes fenêtres. Mon appartement est spacieux, surtout pour trois personnes. Le quartier est bien tranquille parce que c’est situé au coin de la ville. Il est proche de la rivière et les champs. Je vais me promener souvent au long de la rivière avec ma mère. J’aime beaucoup de vues(paysages? air?) provincials autour de mon quartier. On peut voir les champs à l’interieur par les fenêtres. Le seul désavantage est que mon appartement est un peu loin du centre-ville. Ma famille est moi doivent prendre beaucoup de transports publics comme bus ou taxi. (Ou on peut marcher, qui prendrait 20-30 minutes en moyenne.....)
