Activities
- The first one. Q: How did you become so good at basketball? A: I became this good by practicing every day! The past tense is used in both sentences, but in the Question, you use “Did + become” (Did is past simple, Become is the base form of the verb “To become”). Did is the auxiliary verb, become is the main verb. In a sentence about the past without an auxiliary verb, the main verb does need to be in the past tense form, as in this sentence: I became this good by practicing every day.0 votedSeptember 9, 20200
- Here are the meanings in this context: Reach (noun) = Your potential influence on the world, or on your market. Having a big reach means many people can connect with you. Having a small reach means you cannot connect with too many people, you have a smaller influence in the world / your market." micro-influencers = Influencers that have a smaller influence (a smaller reach). To put you off = To make you not want to do something. To make you change your mind about doing something. So, this sentence means, do not let the smaller influence of micro-influencers, make you not want to do this. Don't be discouraged/disappointed in micro-influencers' small reach, there must be some other advantages to them.0 votedJuly 24, 20191
- Instructions in recipes always use concise English, which is of course different to the writing you find in books for example. The two words "dried" and "chopped" are used to describe the cranberries you should use. The "dried" adjective means "use dried cranberries. Buy the dried cranberries from a store." The "chopped" adjective means "Use chopped cranberries. Chop them yourself".0 votedJuly 24, 20191
- Yes, you can also literally "beat it". Here are a few meanings, in addition to the ones mentioned by the other users: Beat it = To overcome a challenge/obstacle (a game, a charge/accusation) "I was accused of speeding, but they have no evidence! I think I will beat it in court!" "This game as really difficult. It took me all week to beat it!" Beat (it/someone) = To attack and harm someone, to hit repeatedly. "My neighbour is really cruel, I always see him beat his dog." "I had my phone stolen last night. Three guys tackled me and beat me until I handed over my phone." "My new drum set it great, but it is not very durable. If you beat it too hard it will break." To beat (someone) = To win against someone in a competition/challenge. "He was a good challenger in the competition, and I am happy that I beat him in the end." "You are up against a lot of competition. Do you think you will beat them?" if you need anymore good tips, message me. I offer classes.0 votedJuly 24, 20191
- We are straight can mean a lot of things. It is difficul to explain without any context, but I will try. When describing a person/people, it could mean (in order of most likely meaning!): "We are straight." = "We are heterosexual, we are not gay." "We are straight." / "You and I are straight" = "We don't owe each other money." "We are straight." ="We obey the rules, we don't do anything wrong or illegal."0 votedDecember 20, 20180
- In the UK, people usually refer to it as an 'aerial'. In the US, it is usually called an 'antenna'. I would say that in both countries, these words would be almost interchangeable. Both would be understood in the same way. Also, in both countries, 'an antenna' or 'antennae' (plural) are the two things coming out of an insects head.0 votedDecember 20, 20181
- I don't think the turban on his head has anything to do with the meaning of the photo. It is just a side detail. To me, it looks like a teacher yelling 'goodbye' to a student who is late for another class. The teacher is holding papers in his hand. There are other students visible. The boy is also wearing a backpack like a schoolboy. The teaching is yelling something while smiling and waving. I assume he is saying 'goodbye!'. Hope this helps.0 votedNovember 10, 20181
