Both are important. English grammar is essential to writing/speaking the language properly; it is harder than Chinese grammar but easier than French grammar. Vocabulary is what differentiates a beginner from an advanced speaker. Chinese uses pairs of words, French uses expressions and sayings, English mainly uses synonyms(different words with the same meaning).

Do you prefer fair-skinneds or wheat-skinneds

Today, as I walkedwas walking on the road, I noticed and found that nearly all the females had put on wore hats or held opened umbrellas for sunshade. Thisat reminded me of themy experience in France.

The July sun was very blazing in June in Paris. So I opened an umbrella when I went outside. But I thoughtfound it was very strange that there was nobody else did this except me. They aren't afraid to get a tan. Someone told me, "In Paris, people are afraid to have fair skinneds. Beacause gives the impression thatthat means he or she is not rich enough to take a holiday by the sea."

Haha, that's really funny. In China, we don't like theto be tanned wheat-skinneds, since to the Chinese, the opposite is true. Being fair-skinneds meansshows that you are rich and you don't need to do thework outside work like workers and farmers. So we all use some facial masks which can make us whiter.

No matter Chinese or French, we all want us to look like rich people. Haha~~~Of course, someone think suntanswheat-skinneds is more are healthier, while otherssomeone will say that staying under the blazing sun for quite a long time will can causebe eazy getting the skin cancer, and that a white face touchedwith a hint of red is the most beatiful face.
