| When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for world, into your own language. Take the sentence "How do you do?" for example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation (翻译)? It must be a wrong sentence in your language. Language do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It's important to master the rules of word order in the study of English, too. If the speaker put words in a wrong order, the listener can't understand the speaker's meaning easily. Sometimes when order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn't changed. Let's see the difference between the two pairs of sentences. "She only likes apples." "Only she likes apples." "I have seen the film already." "I have already seen the film." When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the languages and use it as the English speaker does. |

| My grandfather is eighty years old. He always complains about how fast things have changed, and he often says that life used to be better. "Families aren't what they used to be.

In math class, for example, we used to add, subtract, multiply and divide by using our heads. But now kids don't use their heads anymore. Instead, they use calculators. Most families have computers now. In the past we didn't have computers. We didn't even have lights. My mother used to spend all day cooking in the kitchen.

| Some things can carry messages, for example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. Signs on the door tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate on many other ways. An artist can use his drawing to tell about beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things. Books are written to tell you about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas. Books, magazines, TVs, radios and films all help us to communicate with others.
