    Introducing myself and looking for a language partner to practice oral English.

    I started to learn English when I was in Junior Middle school, I can read and write English, but there is little chance to speak it, it is so-called" dumb English" in China. Therefore I am trying to find a language partner to practice spoken English. My hobbies are dancing, jogging, walking and travelling and sometimes I go to a bar to dance salsa with my friends after work. I also like jogging on the playground in the evening, or walking from company to home after work. These are good ways to exercise in my opinion.
    I am trying to learn how to swim at the moment. I can float on the water, stand up by myself after floating and I can swim a couple of meters, but I don't know how to control my breathing in water.
    I learned volleyball and tennis when I was at school. I also played pingpong and badminton, but now I have graduated, I rarely play them anymore. I hope that someday I will play these games again with my friends.
    American comedies and romantic movies are my favourite, as well as american TV dramas such as; " Desperate housewives" and "Sex and the city"
    I am working and living in Shanghai now, if you are also in Shanghai and if you are a native English speaker and are looking for someone to practice Chinese or would like to make new friends in Shanghai, message to me or add my skype: jessy-lq

    your correction will be appreciated

    The advantages and disadvantages of using a search engine

    Millions of people around the world use search engines almost everyday. We actually gain many benefits from them, but this can also bring us harm.

    We can expand our knowledge easily through the use of search engines. There is no doubt that everyone must have something that they did not previously know. In ancient times when people approached difficulties beyond their abilities, they often read books or knowledgeable people. But nowadays we can simply put some key words into a search engine and then in less than a second thousands of useful answers will show on your screen. That's amazing!

    But search engines also have disadvantages. Firstly, search engines show way too much useless information on our screen. Sometimes you can not even find anything useful from searching results. It wastes a lot of time to pick up useful information from large amounts of search results. Secondly, those who use search engine frequently may become lazy even stupid. Everytime they meet difficulties they just immediately use a search engine.They do not even spend a little bit of time to think of realistic answers. I think these are not good habits which we had better get rid of. Lastly search engines may bring people to various pornographic websites. Those websites are especially harmful for children. And search engines have not found the best way to keep those detrimental websites from children as of present.

    Though search engines can benefit us a lot, we need to use it carefully in order to gain what we want and avoid harmful information. Search engines can become a powerful tool to learn new knowledge,however it can also cause harm. It all depends on how you choose to use search engines.
