    Française: Mon histoire avec le saxophone: comment ça a commencé, Aujourd'hui je rencontre l’histoire de comment je commence à apprendre le saxophone. L’histoire commence dans mon premier an de collège. Avec chaque nouvelle année, chaque étudiant choisit un elective (class), j’ai choisi la classe de musique. Le premier jour on choisit un instrument. Ma première option était le saxophone mais il y avait un problème, l'école n’y avait pas de saxophone à louer. Avec si, j’ai choisi la clarinette. Pour moi, la clarinette regarde similaire au saxophone donc c'était ça. Après la classe, je rentre à la maison et je dis ma famille, ma mère, ma soeur et mon beau-père. Dans la fin de l'histoire de la jour, mon beau-père dit, “ veux-tu jouer la clarinette ou non?” J’ai répondu," Non, mais l'école n'a pas de saxophone. Mon beau-père répond: si tu veux jouer au saxophone; j’étais un acheté. C’est comment je commence à apprendre le saxophone. ----- English: My history with the saxophone: How it began: Today I tell the story of how I started to learn the saxophone. The story begins during my first year of middle school. With each new year, each studio chooses an elective class; I choose band/music class. On the first day, we chose instruments. My first option was the saxophone, but there was a problem; my school didn’t have any saxophones to rent. With this, I chose/decided/picked the clarinet. To me, the clarinet looked similar to the saxophone so that was that/close enough. After class, I went home and told my family: my mother, sister, and step-dad. After I finished telling the story, my stepdad said,'' Do you want to play the clarinet?” I responded,'' No, but the school doesn’t have any saxophones.” My step-father responded,'' If you want to play the saxophone, I’ll buy one. This is how I started to learn the saxophone.

    Cuatro Ciénegas, a beautiful place!!!

    Hello everybody.

    Two weeks ago I went to a beautiful place called, "Cuatro Ciénegas". This place is in Coahuila, México, and is very interesting because <s>has some</s> of its' unique animals, plants and bacteria. There, I learned that <s>this place </s>Cuatro Ciénegas (better to use the name of the location here, helps to remind the reader what they are reading about.) is surrounded by mountains. and this have protected the place and its founa and flora, even bacteria, but now some species are extinct, we have lost turtles, fish<s style="color: rgb(230, 0, 0);">es</s> and bacteria that were considered fossils alive.
    <ol><li>The is generally confusing. I would think about how the mountains protected the land and what change occurred that resulted in the extinction of the animals.</li></ol>

    <s>This place</s> Cuatro Ciénegas still <s>have</s> has "estromatolitos", <s>that are</s> bacterial clusters<s>, of </s><s style="background-color: rgb(204, 224, 245);">thoseones</s> that scientist believe started to fill the weather with oxygen million of years ago. That's why they say evolution stopped in this beautiful place.

    Unfortunately, the agriculture and some industries (give examples of the industries. ex. Logging)have over exploited the weather, and now the stability and life of ___ (who's life is in danger?) <s>in this place</s> are in high risk.

    I tried to correct the basic spelling errors and provide notes, or points of highlighted interests. There are many ways to improve this paragraph, I think you're on the right track. Just keep trying and you'll be able to create more cohesive sentences as time goes on.

    Whichever your sexual preferences (boys or girls), a soulmate is someone you balance out with. They're your perfect match; they accent your strengths and help you work through your weaknesses. A soulmate = everything you didn't know you needed.

    1. I have blisters on my feet; I can't walk much further. -Why I made the changes: Blistering is a process, saying "I got" makes it sound like something that comes and goes quickly. 2. I'm very tired, I can't walk much further. -Why I made the changes: "I'm so tired, I can't walk much farther." This one is a bit tricky for me to explain. It would be okay if you are speaking to someone directly because you are able to embellish the pause between the two clauses; written, it reads a bit odd to me. It might be because of my French background and the need for "that" in place of the comma, I'm sure someone else will be able to give you a more grammatical response.

    Le conditionnel passé vs aller (en le imparfait) + infinitive. Ils deux décrivent une action qui seraient survenus dans le passé, non?

    I would call "I wanna" slang, not childish. It's just a relaxed/informal way of saying "I want to". -RS
