    I have loved English since I was a child, and I started to learn it when I was 10 years old. I watch movies in English to help me develop the language. I follow those who speak English, and I listen to English, as it is beneficial. I would like to learn English because it has become a very important language, which in the future will help me with many jobs and opportunities, and I strive to be an accomplished speaker in the future.

    2-I started learning English since I was 9 years old. I am learning English because I love it and this language helps me in many things. I talk to my friends in English and play computer games in English, and this thing develops my language skills. And my teacher helped me learn a lot of words in English.

    3-I love English so much. Because this language is so important now. And I started learn English when I was 8 years old I want to learn many languages. I love learning English when I was 9 years old I study 1 hour every day. I learned by reading English book. I advice you to learn this language

    Hi Sarah


    Sunlight turned the puddle into melted iron = suggests that the reflection of the sunlight makes the puddle (small pool) of oil look like it is made of molten metal - silver and opaque.


    "as if all the hardness had been drawn from her bones, as if she, too, were melting away"

    =She feels as though she doesn't have some 'hard' quality left (bones are hard and strong) it has left her - perhaps her strength, or a protective barrier she has used to shield her emotions. 


    We might talk about our strength 'melting away' if we feel tired, or weakened by something.  


    At the moment, my 'willpower' keeps 'melting away' (gradually disappearing) when I see some snacks that I want to eat but are unhealthy!!!


    Hope this helps you a little,


    Trudi

    In terms of the verb forms, it has several meanings, but with time, it means one thing starts before another thing ends. An arrangement starting at 13:00 and ending at 14:00, would OVERLAP with an arrangement beginning at 13:30 and ending at 14:30. There would be an overlap [n] of 30 minutes. https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/overlap_1?q=overlap Hope this helps 😊

    Hi Luiz "We need to make sure that the meeting doesn't overlap with the scheduled call." "Fortunately, the arrangements didn't overlap, otherwise I would have been late!" Hope these help Trudi

    It's used in informal conversation in BrE, and is fairly common. "I've been such a couch potato this week, I've been watching Netflix all day!" 😊

    Using the word "twice" will sound more natural 😊

    In the UK a day to day account (even without a debit card) is generally referred to as a current account. 😊

    Although colleges in the UK may offer skills-based qualifications, students generally attend college before attending university. School > college > university. We do refer to teachers as "lecturers" at college and university. Some UK schools now offer a sixth-form, so students can continue at school between 16-18. :-)

    Essentially, if you are avoiding the obvious, you are choosing to ignore something that is known, usually something bad.

    So if you are talking to another person, and they know about it too, neither of you talk about it (the known thing).

    So, without reading this text, I'm guessing there is some "known thing" the characters are not talking about, though they probably should.

    An useful idiom is: "The elephant in the room." - a big, obvious issue, that no one mentions!
