Do your work tomorrow.” I stood up and would  9  the computer. But then I remember  10  my parents had told me: “Whatever you do, don’t stop halfway.” So I sat down and went on with it.

Many students talked about the rules that they have in school. At their school, they have to wear uniforms every day. The problem is that all the students think the uniforms are  1  . They think young people should look smart and so they would like to   2  their own clothes. Their teachers believe that if they did that, they would think more of their clothes than their   3  . But the students disagree. They would  4   more comfortable and that is good for studying. If they can’t do that, they should be allowed to design their own uniforms.

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence I your own language.

  Language do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master(掌握) the rules(规则) for word order in the study of English, too. If the sentences put words in a wrong order, the listeners can’t understand the speakers’ sentences easily. Sometimes when the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.

  “She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”

  “I’ve seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film.”

  When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit(精神实际) of the language and use it as the English speakers do.
