Hi,everyone,i'm a college student in China,and i'm from Beijing.

I want to improve my skills in writing,but there're so much problem for me.

For example, i always commited some mistake of grammar,and i couldn't use the word in some correct way, and some mistake in spelling...

If you have some ideas,just tell me ,please.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks!

Lol!

My teacher told me that the phrases"i'm on it " means "working hard",thus i could use it so often...
On the other hand, the popular words are always strange to me...
Lol!

Hi, Eileen G!

How would shihouzhuge best be able to see television that's in the English language, please?

I don't normally watch television and your thoughts concerning that would be really helpful!

Thanks!

CNN is available in most of the world, often BBC World news as well. I'm open to correction here, but I'm willing to bet that a lot of American shows are shown throughout the world, with subtitles.

Maybe surfing in the internet is free for you, but it's not for me

Thus, See the TV is not so proper for me.
Thanks...
How about the <<Time>>?
