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, once at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in 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 listene rs can’t understand the speakers’ sentences easily.Sometimes when the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change.Let’s se e 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(精神实质) of the language and use it as the English speakers do.

I was feeling a little as I was carrying our shopping bag, so I decided to throw something away. I noticed a poor man walking out of the restaurant in front of us I was walking towards a dustbin(垃圾箱). He headed over to the nearby dustbin and started looking through it.
I suddenly felt very because I was about to throw away a new drink just because it was too heavy. I walked up to him and handed the and some bread over to him. The man looked up and took what I gave him. A huge smile on his face. I felt I couldn’t be happier with . But then he said, “Wow, this is my son’s lucky day!”

What’s the most important thing in your life? Do you think about this question?
I began to think about it when I was just a little girl. I had a lot of friends and I loved playing with them. So I thought friendship(友谊) was the most important thing in life. If I had no friends, I would be very sad.
When I got older, I thought the most important thing was music. I was crazy about music at that time. To me, if I couldn’t sing or listen to music, my life would be boring.
When I was 12, I read a book that tells a beautiful story about the love between a mother and her child. I was happy to find that love was the most important thing. I thought love made my life beautiful.
Not long ago, I got a new answer to the question from another book. “Happiness is the destination(目标) for everyone.” the writer said.
Soon I began to understand friendship, music, love and happiness are all very important to us. These important things make our lives colourful and beautiful.
What’s the most important thing in life now? I still don’t have the answer. However, I don’t want to know. I just want to care about everything important in my life.
I hope everyone can find the important things in their lives, and cherish them!
