- IN THE BEGINNING is usually preferred alone and followed by a comma. It covers a much LONGER, INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME and for many English speakers it resonates with religiosity and, therefore, it is used less often than "at the beginning." - In the beginning, I liked my job, but now I don't. - In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth... AT THE BEGINNING is followd by OF and it is used together with a noun such as: year, book, century, show... it also describes a PRECISE MOMENT. - At the beginning of the book the main character is described. - At the beginning of the year, I promised myself not to smoke anymore. I hope it helps :-)0 votedNovember 16, 20170
- Hello Nazanin, IN THE END: is used mostly as an idiom that means "finally," "after a long time," or, "when everything is considered." It is often followed by a comma. Here are some sentences with this idiom: - I studied a lot and, in the end, I passed the exam. - In the end, what the world really needs is love. AT THE END: is used in the idiom "at the end of the day." It is most commonly used as a phrase followed by OF to refer to the end of something specific: a physical object, a period of time, an event, a place, or something more abstract, such as one's patience. Here are some sentences with AT THE END + OF: - I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. - I'm at the end of my patience. I hope it helps :-)0 votedNovember 16, 20170
- Hi! - In this context "spring" means 弹簧,发条 If you walk with or have a spring in your step, you walk energetically in a way that shows you are feeling happy and confident (Cambridge dictionary) - In a medical context "admission" means (医院) 入院 When you are admitted in an hospital it means that you are going to stay in the hospital for some medical reason. - Trimester means "a period of three months" 三月期 - I think "medicine" (药,药物) and "medication" (药,制剂)can be considered synonyms in sentences like "I take these medicines/medications when I am sick" - "Medicine" 医学 can also mean the science: "I study medicine because I want to help people". Unfortunately, I don't speak Chinese. I had to use a English-Chinese dictionary. Hope it helps :-)0 votedNovember 15, 20171
Ciao Cara,
Dipende quale termine devi tradurre.
Secondary school può significare sia liceo (high school) che medie (middle school).
In Inghilterra il college identifica, generalmente, un'istituzione tra la scuola secondaria e l'università che non ha il potere di rilasciare la laurea. In America, invece, il college è paragonabile all'università di tipo europeo.
Se devi tradurre università io userei university.
In bocca la lupo :-)

Delle mie studentesse ascoltano i podcast di Coffee Break Italian https://radiolingua.com/lnd-cbi-intro/ sembra che siano molto interessanti. Podcasts are an excellent way to practice your listening skills, review grammar, build up new vocabulary and learn something more about a specific culture.
In bocca al lupo (good luck) with your Italian studies :-)
Un saluto
