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

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

Thanks a lot!

I'd suggest you join some websites or boards so you can practice your English by posting, and see how people reply to you. If possible, speaking is good too, but that might be harder to arrange.

English is a very difficult language. I think you have expressed yourself very well.
Research idioms because the English language is "rife" new word) with them.
The mistakes in grammar come with practice.
Talk to people who you can learn from and have confidence that you are doing a good job.
Take one word at a time

Hey, artlady!

"Rife" would seem to me the correct word to use with the message that you were trying to convey!

Thanks!

Thanks,artlady.
But people around me are all Chinese , talking to them makes my English does like "Chinglish"
Though I have always made some mistake, there's no such problem in vocabularies.
And I do hope you all could point out the mistake that I made.

Thanks!

I'm here right now, shihouzhuge!

But, I do need to get up early in the morning for me! I can work with you for awhile, though. I'm also going to combine your two threads about this since they have the same title.

Thanks!

Thanks,Clough!
I didn't take the threads in a correct way, and sorry for my publishing two same threads...
In my opinion,Regularly resting and working does make a sense, I hope you could do it properly...
