    Do We Really Need a Selfie Stick?

    I'm from mainland China. Recently, I had a chance to visit Macau, a former Portugal colony known for its reputation as the eastern Las Vegas--or should I say Las Vegas is the western Macau :). The first wierd thing I noticed is practically every tourist on the street, mostly mainlanders, was holding a selfie stick. I supposed this gadget was first invented to avoid the need to constantly harassing other people to take pictures for you, for convenience purposes. But I had to admit it's kind of a little bit annoying seeing hundreds of selfie sticks at the same time with people obliviously posing in front of their camera in all kinds of body positions. I had thought it was a typical Chinese characteristic thing, but it wasn't until last night when I accidentally click on a video clip of the David Letterman Show featuring Tom Hanks taking a selfie with David--also using a selfie stick!--that I realized this trend really had caught on worldwide, although I haven't had time to watch that whole episode to obtain his actual opinion on this phenomenon. So what is your opinion on this little gadget? Is it just a fad or something that's going to last?

    China Tightening its Stranglehold on Cyber Freedom Internet surfing experience in China is very different from the outside world. No Youtube, no Facebook, no Twitter, even Google was blocked recently. We rely on an app called Freegate to get around the great firewall. However. its performance has been quite spotty. I believe the recent poor and fitful conncetivity of the app is largely due to government actions. Anyway, it's getting harder and harder for Chinese netizens to know what is REALLY going on outside. What is the cyber freedom situation in your country?

    You should be more specific about your problems. Do you mean you want to study abroad or live in another country?

    I would say it won't be a complete sentence if you leave out "expansion". "The way ISIS approaches expansion" means the methods it employs to execute its expansion strategy. In this sentence, "the way" is not the object of "approach", but serves an adverbial phase-like function in the relative clause.

    ‘’我看不到你的网页‘’ is correct, or you can say ‘’我无法看到你的网页‘’. ‘’我不看到你的网页‘’ sounds quite strange and awkawd. We use "看不到", it's kind of like an expression or collocation, we don't kown why, this is how this language works, just memorize it. Hope it helps :）

    Using "bad" is acceptable in an informal context, eg. I want it so bad, which means I want it so much. Actually, for convience purpose, they tend to use "bad" in everyday conversation. But you have to be careful in formal writing, in which case "badly" is the grammatically correct choice.

    It could mean both. You have to look at the context. An escalationg fight might involve pushing, hitting etc, but in your sentences, I tend to believe there are just verbal exchanges. :)

    That means you're not paid by your company for working the extra weekend---as opposed to your normal working days from Monday to Friday.
