Some choice questions related to German I'm very appriciated if you make some explainations about these questions that puzzle me 1. Du musst nicht darüber reden, wenn es ___ langweilig ist. a) das b) du c) dir d) dich The answer to the question is "dir". But what puzzles me is why can't I choose "dich" as an answer to the question? 2. ___ der Fahrt ___ Deutschland bemerkt man zuallererst die ordentliche Häuser und Gärten. a) Auf, im b) Bei, durch c) Bei, im d) Bei, in At first I chose a) based on the phrase "auf der Fahrt"，which means "on a trip" . However,obviously I'm wrong. 3. Die Wohnung ist sonnig, weil ihre Fenster gegen Süden ___ . a) gehen b) öffnen c) offen d) ist As we all the know, there is a phrase "nach Süden gehen" in German. Apparently, the subordinate clause is lack of verb ,why can't I choose öffnen ?

The differences between the germen verbs "wechseln","ändern" and “ verändern” ？ The three verbs I mentioned above almost have the same meaning,which mean "change" in English. It will be greatly appreciated if you tell me the exact usage of those verbs, and in what situation they can be used properly. And by the way it will be better if you list couples of examples when explaining Thanks.~!

Should Students Drive Private Cars on Campus ? With society developing, people's life standard has been highly improved. Hence there is a common phenomenon that students drive private cars on campus, about which people's view differ. Some people hold the view that it's quite convenient for students to drive cars on campus. They will be benefited a lot from it . Firstly, it's far more effective than riding a bike, without worrying that they'll be late for class. Secondly , they can pay more attention to something crucial, such as study, part-time job etc. But others insist that driving cars on campus will cause a various of problems. For one thing, university is place where environment is beautiful and quiet. Driving private cars will produce some nocuous gases that is bad for environment. For another, some student will be occupied with showing their classmates how "cool" they are. As time goes by, their study suffer. From my point of view. I'm in favor of the former opinion, Riding is not only the best way to keep fit but also good for environment. Besides, cars is another distraction for students. They gradually care about how expensive and cool their cars are. In conclude, as a students we ought to be aware of what benefits us and what makes things worse.

meaning and structure What does "gerade" mean in the sentence "Did Deutsche Welle macht gerade eine Sendung über die Familie"？ I have difficulties understanding the sentence structure of "Kann ich Ihnen ein paar Fragen stellen?" Can you explain them to me ?

Language Have you experienced the unique feelings when you were understood by others? Especially when you talked to the people whose mother language differ from yours. When alone, I’m always reflecting on the attraction and function of language. Why do I have to get the hang of a new language? Is it to pass the exam? No, that’s what I thought, as a young child who was innocent. It is to communicate. Indeed, it is communication and understanding between other people and us that drives us to learn hard. They have become one of the most crucial factors, while learning new languages .Under the rapid development of society and the close connection among various cultures, well-round persons are badly needed, aren’t they? A person who masters several languages will not only have more job chances, friendship but also have better a certain understanding of a culture. Thus, they are in deep in thought longer than others, getting the news and events from TV involved cultures and races. Hence people around the world are passionate about picking up a new language. Well, here comes the problem when it comes to language learning. Have you ever been into a trouble that sometimes some people misunderstood you that you were showing off when you tried any means to practice what you have learned? For example, writing constant “mood” in English on QQ or on other chatting software. It did happen to me recently. However, as far as I am concerned, I don’t have to get mad or sad. People who don’t know much about the person inside me will not present a correct comment. I think that happens to everybody else. So what we need to do is realizing what we need. Only if we know it can we really reach our ultimate goal.

Puzzled There is another thing confuse me and upset me these days.With the society developing,it’s normal for a person to meet some friends he or she knows,especially meet some net friends who had already known for a long time .However I’m not allow to meet my friends even though I finished with high school. I think that I’ll be freer than what I was.It turns out that I am completely wrong.When I told my parents that my friend from Czech would visit me in July,they thought I am too young to meet him.As the only child in the family, I can understand what they worry about.Controlled by traditional concept,they tend to consider friends from Internet as “Danger”.Honestly,not everyone is dangerous in the society, instead,they may be kinder than you might imagine.If you are used to thinking about something negative towards everything,there won’t be bright light in your heart. As for my friend,he holds the view that I will forget him step by step just because we can’t meet each other in person.I think that’s impossible.why will I do that ? How can a person forget others unless they never stop chatting with each other? We have to accept something happening to us as though we are against it.The contradictory between parents and teenagers is a clear example.There is strong influence in our parents’generation anyway.

Ending and begining My high school life ended ultimately. Recalling the time in senior high school, I never regret everything I did for English learning. I have totally forgotten when I started to read my English Book aloud every morning. I even have no idea what kind of power drove me to keep doing the same thing everyday.All I remember now is that I got up at 5:30 am, sorting out some book related to study and having breakfast.Then, I left for school at 6:30 am. I was always standing outside of the classroom,reading aloud.Some of my fellows did not understand what my goal is.But to be honest,not only do reading aloud help me with enriching my vocabularies but also my composition. Gradually I made an improvement in English step by step.It turned out that my effort paid off eventually , for I did well in the English test of University Entrance Examination. Sometimes I reflect on the power that drives me to keep doing the same thing .I think it is the different altitude towards English. When I was a child,I regraded English as a boring subject instead of language. Everything changed since I met with foreign friends in the Internet. Fortunately,I get along well with some of them.I even have known a guy for more than one year. And I enjoy the friendship very much.You know what, I feel that is beyond common friendship (well,maybe it’s my imagination).Anyway,English for me now is a language used in communication and social association.I get much more after I get closer to it,especially friendship. After the University Entrance Examination, most of my classmate plan to get up late, but I still wake up at the same time everyday.Maybe I have formed a habit of doing so. Is it a good thing? I think it is ^-^. A new school life is waiting for me..
