    do I have any grammar problems or wrong words?

    In this article, the author is against Ghanaian over-reconstruction of slave forts. He believes (past or present - keep it consistent - is he dead? - then past only) that these Ghana’s slave forts are essential historic buildings. Ghana’s slave forts were built by Europeans over 300 years, they are the link which can associate people with slave history. Therefore, slave forts deserve respect and protection. However, the fact is slave forts are no longer used to enshrine slave history but to satisfy Ghanaian desire for money. Ghanaian transformed these slave forts into hotels in order to attract customers, and even used to store beer. Ghanaian ignore the meaningful influence of slave history on human development.


    An impressive piece of writing about an interesting topic... I want to hear more!!! An improvement would be to define the introduction, main body and conclusion into separate and defined paragraphs leading smoothly from one paragraph to the next.

    the weather

    The weather has been good these days! Most of the time it is above 10℃ and there is often lovely sunshine, which makes me very pleased. In fact, I am the kind of person who hates the cold very much. I remember that on last winter vacation, the temperature remained as low as around 5℃ for about ten days, which brought me a very miserable time made me feel miserable(more natural): I couldn’t play the guitar because my hands were frozen, and I couldn’t focus on my studies because I kept shivering no matter how much clothes I had put on. I don’t know what the winter is like in the North, but in the south, the wet cold(wet cold sounds strange = change it!) soaks you to the bone. Personally, I would rather live in 35 ℃ heat than 5℃……

    Please amend my article to make it like from native speaker

    As we all know, information is a critical factor of the development of society, but sharing information without reservation might stifle the creativity in the scientific, business and academic field.
    Some people are strong advocates of sharing information freely, because they believe that it can create a much better world, especially in the scientific world. They think if all the countries share their core science and technologies knowledge with each other, many world-class issues would be solved. For example, there are many challenges now in the clean energy, medical and bio-genetic field, but as long as the first-tier scientists from different countries work together and share their information as much as possible, and they will be able to achieve something great, which will benefit the whole world.
    Opponents, however, say some information is not suitable to share with each other, because some information is secret, = confidential (=better vocab) its disclosure may cause irretrievable damage to the owner. If a company, for instance, put their core information of cost and customer information online, all their competitors would study the information immediately, and make corresponding strategies to take advantage and get the better of the the company. Then the bankruptcy would be the end of the sharer.
    In my view, sharing information freely might have an adverse influence on creativity in the business and academic field. Creativity is the key to success in both fields, and it needs much energy and many a large amount of funds. If a company or a scholar can acquire this creative information without any price,, it would be unjust to those paying a lot. If things continue this way, no one would like be willing to invent or create something new, because all of them are  they would be waiting for the creative information from others.

    Guangzhou will become a empty city soon. 1/25/2019

    The best time in the whole year is the time near the spring festival. This is because the students in universities and workers are back in their hometown. It will be an empty city on the day of the spring festival.  On this day , you will find the roads are empty and you can drive as far as 80 yards. You can feel the fresh air and people's pace won't be as quick as usual. Guangzhou will be a city of relaxation / to relax.
    I will spend the spring festival in Guangzhou this year . Enjoy the beautiful holiday.



    :) :)

    每年临近新年的时候,是广州最好的时候,因为人越来越少了,大学生们和工作的人陆陆续续回到自己的家乡,到春节那天的时候,广州就是一座大空城。这个时候你才会发现,道路原来这么宽阔,可以很任性的开到80码以上,你会发现广州的空气也会很新鲜,人们脚步的节奏没有那么快,是一个多么舒适的地方。
    今年我将在广州过年,希望好好享受这美好的假期。

    Hey! First, cool topic, maybe you would be interested in the Netflix documentary - 'Walt before Disney' I enjoyed it.

    HAKUNA MATATA

    Walt Disney often use songs with hidden meanings, “hakuna matata” is a good example of this, because the meaning of this expression is something like “don´t worry, be happy” or “Carpe Diem”.
    The movie has a good intention about the (no the for things in general) children, because that catchy phrase refers to the understanding that not everything is in their control, and they shouldn´t be worried about that. Actually, it is a sentence to put things into perspective, because everything is useful for something in the .(same reason as before) life, and we can understand the meaning when we can see it from behind.
    To learn from the past is a right way for to (never for and to together =  to + infintive or for +verb-ing) get a happy live for you and the people you love, so the intention of the movie is good, but the children can understand bad the meaning.'
    The scene starts with the song “Hakuna matata” where the characters meet each other’s, Simba believe he killed him father and he is very scared, because of his uncle Scar.

    Do these sentences sound natural?

    1. Any student who graduated from an overseas medical school requires to take a test before taking the medical licence exam in the US.
    2. You shouldn't take the exam before you feel like you are really ready for the test, because the number of attempts of taking the exam will be taken into consideration by interviewers while you are applying for the residency at any hospital in the US.
    3.When you first talk with your doctor, you should ask if there is any risk of getting any complications/side effects while taking the medicine that the doctor gives to you.
    4. The doctors will ask you to sign the informed consent form that allows the doctors go ahead and give you the treatment that you need. You can decide whether to have it while you signing it.
    5. Is she seriously telling you that the disease won't  doesn't scare her and insisting to discharge her from the hospital?

    Cellular phone - a great invention or a harmful device?

    A smartphone. It is the 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 have become 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  (or one of the + superlative e.g. one of the best)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 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 of people that surround 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.

    A well written, accurate essay ;)

    It is more important for students to read books about real events than it is for them to read novels

    TASK:
    Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? It is more important for students to read books about real events than it is for them to read novels. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.


    I think that it is really important for students to read historical books rather than to read novels. I think that way not only because students can learn about their ancestors and history of a country in which they live but also because they can know the truth about some events and about this world overall. Further in this essay I am going to support my idea.
    First, I believe that our ancestors had an interesting in its own way of course and certainly adventurous life. About events from the past we only can read in books that represent real occasions rather than fictional novels where there are pieces of truth but mostly fake stories. For example, I like to read biographical books about recently living people very much such as poets and writers. It is very exciting and sometime said that talented famous people had similar struggles like we have now.
    Second, I think that learning the truth about events in the past is an essential part of becoming an adult human being. Moreover, students can learn about some behaviour rules in society and how people can work out in this imperfect world at all. I personally learnt a lot of things from historical books, for example how people resolved major problems between counties and smaller issues between each other.
    In conclusion I can say that I agree with the statement that students should read more books about real events than fictional ones. It is more important for them because they can learn how things about inventions, wars and politics were done and how people who lived before us lived their lives.

    My friend

    My school is very far from my house. It's about 200 kilometers. So I live with my friends in a room near my school. My friend Kim Anh and Tu. I know met them when I participated in the Blood Club in my school. We became volunteers and and appealed to everybody to give blood to save lives. Because when a people person donates blood successfully she or he can assist 3 people. So blood donation is really meaningful, especially for the people who are in need of blood. My friend Kim Anh is studying Korean language to study abroad. Me and Tu are studying English to be able to read documents in English. Our characters do are not well suited but we still live together up to now as we understand our friend's personality. I hope we are able to be best friends forever.
