I appreciate your help comment my essay very much. Thanks in advance. I disagree with the study that Bay City should have a speciailized seafood restaurant only according to the reasons listed above. Firstly, the 30 pecent increase of seafood consumption may not provide enough clients for the new restaurant. Secondly, the number of home-cooked family is independent with the number of seafood consumption. Moreover, not all seafood considered as healthy food and the nationwide study may not be useful for the Bay City restaurant. Therefore, Bay City should not open a new seafood restaurant with only the data listed above. First of all, the percent increased in Bay City seafood consumption may not provide enough customers for the city. In fact, Bay City may has only hundreds of people eating seafood five years ago, and 30 percent increase does not guranteen large amount of consumers in Bay City. The new restaurants should evaluate the client base with the actual number of seafood clients. Moreover, citizens who do not like home-cooked food are not necessary to be seafood fonders. The families may simply go to fast food restaurant because of their busy schedules. In addition, the citizens having meals outside can be people who seldom consume expensive restaurants. As speicalized seafood restuarants can have high cost, they may not be suitable for those people having meals outside. Therefore, the new restaurant may not be able attract the Bay City people if they only provide seafood. In addition, the national study's statistic on the healthy food may not be helpful to the restaurant. It indicates more people concern with eating healthily. However, not all seafood are healthy to human beings and some of them are even posionous if not treated properly. In fact, the people like eating healthily may enjoy vegetarian food more. The specialized seafood restaurant may not provide the kinds of food requested by those healthy eating people. All in all, the study does not prove that Bay City need a specialized seafood restaurant. The percentage increased in seafood eating may be a small amount of people. Moreover, the families eating outsider can have meals from other types of restaurants. Lastly, the healthy food fonders may be vegetarian who does not have seafood at all. The restaurant should analysis in more details before speicalizing in seafood.

Can you help me comment the essay? thx much. :) The advanced technology allows us to communicate quickly through a very long distance. These new technology changed our standards of communications. Nowadays, the information are usually immediate, differentiate and short. How we obtain these information is similar to how we make instant noodles, in which we can digest the content within very short period. Compared with old methods, are we getting less and less information about the overall perspectives? New communication gives less information per item and sometimes affecting the perception for some readers. However, there are usually much more information exists in the channels in different formats. Moreover, if one can organize pieces of information well, he can get much more data than the old ways of communications. Whether the new technology can help one to get better perspectives depends on how good he can research information from different places. First of all, our media has a trend to divide information into shorter pieces in order to give more types of infomration to us in one time. For instances, we are using a ":)" to represent "I am happy with it" in emails; the content on the internet are ususally much shorter than books and newspapers; and you can get very short news and events from SMS by using cell phones. The reasons for the short content are the new communications require an efficient ways of delivery, and it is useful to keep the information sizes small. In this way , the new techonology can store more data and transmit the data faster. However, the content sizes is not necessary a limitation for the content we obtained. You cannot find a very detailed biobilogrpahy of a celebrity online as a book does easily, but you can find a lot of the celebrity's information online by going to the celebrity's websites. Such amount of data can be a lot more than a book. In the old days, if you want to find some information about a topic, you may have to go to the library to search references. Nowadays, what you have to do is to use the internet's searching engines. The new technology has shortened the distance among people, and the new communications can provide not only local information but also global information. In addition, if you have good management skills, you can gather informations from different types of media easily. Since the computerization of information, we can put a lot of images, essays and voice into one file easily. These organized data can represent a concept clearly. People who feel comfortable in getting information in tradition channels like newspaper or radios can actually obtain most data from new kinds of media represented in other format. Although one may not find a long and in-depth essay online, he can get various related information in a website. All in all, new communication chunk our information into small pieces for effective delivery and storage. However, the content provided in new technology channel need not to be smaller. There are usually more data provided but in different databases. If we have good skills in organizing these data, we can get a lot of valuable information from the new media.

This essay seems to be too short and I should have had put more ideas into it. Thanks for reading. Human learns from every aspects inside their environment. Because of punishment and reinforcement in our society, we defines ourselves and attitudes to within the society standards. It is the society as a whole to teach us the ways we are. However, there are a few individuals who has larger influence on us and thus change the direction of our learning path and our attidude. In addition, there are chances that some people changed our mind in a very great extent that other influence of the society has been minimized. Firstly, animals learn from operant conditioning. Therefore, human, as a type of animals, learn from the environment's existing punishment and reinforcement. We will decrease our behaviors if there are punishments like jails or blames from the authority; we will increase our behaviors if there are reinforcement like money or fame from other people. As all people are living in a connected society, it is every aspects in the society that defines our personality and attitudes. However, some people close to us or some celebrities will have larger influence on us. According to some people's activities, we will begin our new learning path or changed our existing manner. For example, my friend who are very energertic had applied to study in foreign country a few years ago. Due to his influence, I applied the exchange studentship in American when I was in University. My ways of thinking had been changed in a great extent since then. Another example is how my mother changed my personality. My mother is very generous and is always eager to help others. She always donate a lot for the poors. Because of her influence, I always try to help others no matter how much my classmates or friends do. Some people close to us usually has greater influence on other attidude Moreover, some people will be our goal of achievement and can diminish the influence of the other factors in the society. For instance, I was very weak when I was in high school because most of my classmates are bookish. I always stay in the library without doing any exercise. However, I changed my goal after an important event for me. My high school principle is one of the best Taiji teachers in Hong Kong. I had once saw his performance and was attracted by his best of the best skills. I start my learning of Kung Fu since then. I was no longer one of the bookish and I started doing a lot of exercise weekly. And some very successful people will be a model for others. All in all, we all learnt from the society in all aspects related to our daily life. However, we give a higher priority to learn from some people and celebrities. In some cases but not all, some people's influence will be so big that it can minimize the influence of other factors around us. Although we are learning from the society everyday, we are able filter the some outstanding models from others.

I appreciate your help read my essay or give comments, thanks first. I agree with the president to build more house in the coming year, but disagree with his decision in putting less budget in the low-priced houses. First, the population of the Steel city may indictate the company has market in selling all kinds of houses, which need not to be high-priced houses. Moreover, the nationwide study may not reflect the situations in Steel city. On the other hand, the company can find other solutions to build more houses instead of hiring more workers. The president should consider the above issue before making the decision. First of all, the population increased in the past five years indicates the need for all kinds of houses has increased. The reason is the immigrants are not limited to rich people. In fact, the reason for the faster population growth in Steel City than the national rate maybe the lower living costs in the city. Therefore, there can be a very large market for the low-priced houses in Steel City. Secondly, the Nationalwide study alone may not represent the situations in Steel City well. Since the population growth in Steel City is different from other places, the president should consider the Steel City's population growth first. Also, the greater sales of high-priced houses does not indicate the sales in low-price is bad. In fact, both kinds of houses can have increasing markets. If it is the situation in Steel City, the company should invest more money in both markets as they are all profitable. In addition, the company should consider other ways to increase the number of houses instead of hiring more workers. First, hiring more workers lead to larger costs, and thus decrease the profit of the company. Secondly, the effective use of human resources may obtain the goal of building more houses. For example, when the transportation workers finished deliverying commodities to a site, the workers can work in another site on next day. Thirdly, the company can freelance some parts of procedures to save the costs in the long run. The reason is many tasks in building up houses only proceed in a short period and the workers' idle time will waste company's money. Freelancing some tasks to a good company will solve the problem. All in all, the company should analayse the growth of the low-price houses in Steel City independent of other types of houses. Moreover, the president should consider the Steel City's growth but not solely the nationalwide study. Finally, if the company can have effective use of labors, it can build more houses without hiring more workers. Therefore, the company should consider include the above information before changing their plan.

Could you help me rate the following arguements? Thanks much :) The vice president's agreements is not strong enough for resuming the production of alpaca overcoats. First, there is no major competitiors does not imply they can occupy the markets in a great proportion; Second, they have not involved in the industry for 5 years making them having not enough up-to-date information; Thirdly, other type of clothing's prices rising does not reflect that the price of overcoats is rising too; Lastly, the paragrphy does not state that the vice president can find reliable products now. First of all, Sartorian may not be able to get a great proportion in the industry simply because their major competitors has left the alpaca overcoats productions. Their major compeittors may leave the alpaca overcoats industry simply because the market is too small to make big profits. Therefore the small amount of competitiors does not imply Sartorian should involve in it. Besides, the vice president has only stated that there is no competition in this industry among Sartorian's major competitors, it does not imply that there is no keen competiton by the companies who has no relationship with Sartorian. Secondly, Sartorian has not involved in alpaca overcoats for 5 years. In the vice president's arguments, there is no implication that Sartorian have obtained enough up-to-date information about the alpaca overcoats market. Since the market has changed for the past 5 years, the Sartorian information for the industry long time ago does not help them to get the advantage in the industry. Thirdly, the price of other types of clothes has no direct relationship with the price of the alpaca overcoats. For example, the weather beomes hotter to make more people buy T-shirts; the fashion has changed to attract more customers buy other type of jackets; or the citizen likes foreign clothing more. All these factors may be the reason for the rising of the price of other clothings which however, are the disadvantages of the alpaca overcoats. Lastly, the Sartorian stopped their production line 5 years ago because of the difficulties in finding a reliable manufactures. The vice president does not stated he can solve this problem now. Therefore, instead of the markets changed even with better enconomic environments, they cannot investment in this industry without concerning this issue. All in all, the president should not resume the production without understand the actual competition which may not be their existing competitors. Also, they should get the latest news of the alpaca overcoats market first. Moreover, the other types of clothing has no direct relationship with the price of alpaca overcoats, Sartorian should analyse these information more deeply. Lastly, they have to solve their problems happened 5 years ago, which is how to find a good manufactures. Sartorian should not resume the alpaca overcoats productions until they have consider the above issues well.

Hi, could you comment on my issue? Thanks much :D Reform usually has many side effects that make the people who brought about the reform being regarded as disdains to the rest of the world if most people cannot predict the good results of the reforms. However, most reforms need not create bad reputations on the people who trigger the reform. First, there are usually groups of people who are dissatisified by the government and other instituations, people who started the reform are considered with courage by the group of people; Seondly, if the reform is improving the environment for most people, such reform will be accepted by most people inside the organizations. However, there are still situations that reforms will make the people who started the reforms notorious when there are conflicts of interestes among the related groups of people. Firstly, there are usually more than one person who want to change the existing situations. When the people who started the reforms can gather the others with the same interestes, the ones who started the activites in changing the government will not become notorious in such situations but gain more reputations. For example, Martin Luther King started the black people activities years ago. As most black people are not satisifed by the unfair situations created by the government, the black people activities has greatly increaed Martin Luther King's social position. Martin Luther King's example shows us that the reformer can find a group of people who has the same interestes. Therefore, in such cases, the reformers' reputations can be built up by the related groups of people. Secondly, if the reforms are improving the situations for most people, the reformers can gain a lot of reputations by those reforms. Two hundreds years ago, Washington started a revolution to protest the unfair treatment provided by the British governemnts. As the taxes paid for the British are unreasonably high, a lot of American joined Washington to repel the British government. As a result, people who are asking for reasonable treatment won the war and Washington became the US president finally. This example shows us that if one has good reasons to change the systems, his reputation will be increased through the reform. However, in some situations, reforming the systems will lose ones' reputation because most people cannot foresee the importance of the reform. For example, the Hong Kong Education Authority Chairman, Arthur Li, has started to change first language of education in schools from Chinese to English. As we have used English in schools for years, most people rejected Arthur Li's suggestions and considered his suggestion as not practical. A lot of money are involved in the plan and it cost a very long time to provide good effects. Arthur Li has finally lost some supporters because his plan does not work well in the first few years. Therefore, people who started the reforms must understand there will be a risk of losing reputations when most people do not understand the goal of the reform. All in all, reform may not damage ones' reputations if the people who trigger the reforms can gather a large group of supporters. Moreover, reforms in many cases can provide the reformer a lot of reputations if the reform results in an improved situations for most people. However, if the reform is too challenging and the results of it cannot be predicted by most people easily, the reformers may become notorious. If we understand these consequences, we can have better estimation before changing the existing systems.

HI TM staff, I believe, as I see it, that the main points of your essay are: 1) humans are destroying the environment at a faster rate than rebuilding it, and 2) humans are doing irreversible damage to the environment. State these points clearly in the introduction, create separate paragraphs for each point in the body, and use specific, concise examples for support. Yes, you're right, and I tried to state it in each paragraph as topic sentence. Many I have to further develop them to make it clearer, Thanks for your comments. Hi, Ccube. I think the key point to improving your essay is to strengthen the focus. Your main points should be stated in the introduction and then used to guide you through the body of the work. Be sure that you understand the difference between a main point and an example. Main points are the ideas that you are expressing, while the examples simply support these points. The examples provided in your essay are good, but seem scattered and random. Pick one or two strong examples and go with them. I believe, as I see it, that the main points of your essay are: 1) humans are destroying the environment at a faster rate than rebuilding it, and 2) humans are doing irreversible damage to the environment. State these points clearly in the introduction, create separate paragraphs for each point in the body, and use specific, concise examples for support. The conclusion of your essay seems to be the strongest part. You've restated your points and expressed your point of view. Your main points and your point of view should be the focus throughout your essays. I hope this will be of some help. Best of luck, TM Staff

Is it inverted: The duck-billed platypus has been described as the strangest mammal there is in the world So, I can understand it as: There is the duck-billed platypus has been described as the strangest mammal in the world

Thanks guys, your explanation is very clear. I get it now. actually, I've learnt some others interesting words and pharse here. IMO, IMHO, BTW, ... It's great if there's a dictionary for these words. ;), It seems American wanna say and write aqap (as quick as possible).

I saw "my 2 cents" in Eminem's Without Me at the first time, I thought It's nonsense before. : "Here's my 10 cents my 2 cents is free. A nuisance, who sent, you sent for me?" (well, I like some of his songs, esp "Lose yourself") However, I found this phrase very often in this forum, could anyone tell me what does "my 2 cents" mean?

Hi kotenok, your "something" happen didn't imply that happen is transitive since "something" is the subject, right? btw, I found a great explanation from the following site. pay attention that it emphasis on "direct object" "The meaning of a transitive verb is incomplete without a direct object, as in the following examples" http://www.uottawa.ca/academic/arts/writcent/hypergrammar/trnsintr.html there are explanation for tran, intran, and linking verbs

All ppl said Barron's quite good. It's true. It's grammar rules are very detail. However, it takes you long time to go over each one. (More than one hundred rules) I suggest you to try other book which have "compressed" ones for you to have a overview of different important points. Of coures, you have to check the TOEFL - Grammar section of this website. Rules like subordinate conjunction, Banana rule can help you. After you understand the basic, go practise! practise as much as you can and understand them. This forum has lots of practice, and ppl are willing to help ya. You can also download other practise at downdowndown.com. MOre, you can join other website's online practise. You will improve your grammar if you put efforts on it. Of course, you have to do quicker and quicker.

I'm not sure the precise definition of it, I bet Erin, and some guys here can give you perfect definition. However, after I read many solutions for the grammar questions here and in some TOEFL books, I found that transitive/intransitive verbs are very common. Here is my understaning of them. transitive verb need something to complete its idea (well, you can think of object, and a clause acts as object, ie. complements). e.g. I like basketball. here, "like" cannot work without a noun, basketball. it is transitive verb. but sometimes, verb can work well without complements e.g. I run. (of course, you can say, "I run on a road", but "on a road" is just modifiers of the clause, not necessary) Therefere, "primarily indicates of" should be something like "primarily indicates xxx" where xxx is a complement or noun. Guys, am I right? Please give comments.

Hi, In my opinion, this sentence must be: After the vote had been counted, it was determined that John Smith was appointed head of the department. btw, is there any exception rule for "head of xxx" that we need not put the article "the" before "head of xxx"

the answer should be D, let me try to explain: as the primary indicates - the word "as" cannot act as conjunction here. is the indication primarily - the word "primarily", adv, cannot be used for nouns (indiction and the rate). primarily indicates of - I've checked out the dictionary, indicate is transitive verb. is a primary indicator of - verb + noun + preposition - alrite!

Hi guys, First of all, I have to thank Erin, true, I haven't posted much, but I have read much from this site. I finished my TOEFL today. It is quite very suprising, I didn't know whether I can take the Exam until last moment! My name was not on the candidate list. It is the Exam authority's error. I feel worried, but I tell myself to calm down. Fortunately, they added my name to the list and I can continue my exam. Listening, as many TMians here stated, are easier than the one we practised. However, the last few narrators became difficult suddenly and I can't get used to it. My advise is: calm down bud. REading, I got 55 questions, nothing special. time is enough, I have checked them over once more. Structure: Damn! I worried about the time, and I have done some questions in a rush. My advise is, practise your pace enough and DON'T worry. Writing: it is #142: A gift (such as a camera, a soccer ball, or an animal) can contribute to a child’s development. What gift would you give to help a child develop? Why? Use reasons and specific examples to support your choice. I haven't done it before, but I have thought of some idea. I suggested dictionary. becasue it can help them improve their lang and quoted some experience of mine that I used it to challege my chinese teacher. besides, I have noticed the auxillary pages, that one can learn one's culture. I have learnt the the Animals of the year, the cities of China, the dynasties of China. My result? Listening: 24 Structure: 20-27 Reading: 27 total: 200-260 [banana][dance][w00t]:D:) I got 550 in my PBT 4 years ago. I know I have improved a lot from this site. I only have a month of time to study for TOEFL (cuz I've studied for my GRE before), I'm sure if I stick to this site, my grammar can improved more. I know my English is not good enough to give comments and help some guys here. But I will keep visit this site. and I hope I can contribute more to this great site. Thanks for you guys' help, and once again, Thanks Erin.

China and America have much unique strength. China is a traditional country with thousand-year-long history. America established within last two hundred years. However, America is the world's strongest country in the world now. These two totally different country attracted me most. I have been to the USA for a year of Unversity Exchange Student program. During a year of study there, I met a lot of friendly people and had visited many cities. Had I a chance to visit a foreign country for two weeks, I would definitely have chosen the USA. Many people have to visit some famous cities and places in America. I had missed some of them in my last visit to the USA. I have heard of many great places there, such as the Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, and Hollywood. In fact, not only Los Angeles, but also many cities, such as New York, had I been to before. However, there are some places I have not been to worth my visit. For instance, the Yellow Stone Country Park will show me enormous amont of natural creatures, and the visit will be the best Biology lesson for me. In addition, the Miami beach is such a famous beach that its reputation is world wide known. In addition, I missed my friends in Los Angeles. I have met a lot of nice people lived in Los Angeles before. They are my dormitory roommates, classmates, people I met during my travel, and my friends' friends. I have kept in touch with many of them during these five years. Making friends with foreigners is the best way to know their country's culture. I understand the difference between Chinese culture and American culture from the different living styles of me and my friends in America. Had I chances to meet them at once, I would have understood how much I have changed and how much they have changed during these years of study and works. "Time flies", all of us have changed in some aspects but friendship. In conclusion, I have to re-visit the USA. The fact is I have to visit places that I have to visit, and I have to visit the people I need to visit again. This valuable opportunties will let me understand how much the country changed and how much it remained unchange.

Can you rate my essay? Dinosaurs extincted before the first human being appears. They were probably destroyed by some natural disasters. Although there is no way to predict when will such disasters come again, we can compare harm generated by human with the natural devastion. Many people consider human beings destroying the earth in an incredible fast rate. I absolutely agree that human activity makes many bad effects to the Earth. In many cases, the destroying rate of human activity is greater than the building rate of it. For example, we have invented many mechines and fertilizers to increase the yield of agriculture. Many farmlands produce more food for us after using the advanced technology. However, the pollution made by the machinese and the checmical fertilizers are destroying the ecosystem in large extent. Birds and animals are weakened by polluted air and thus have respiratory illness. On the other hand, fishes are killed by the chemical waste, making unbalanced growth of some kinds of fungi, in the sea. It is very common that human technology gives benefits in some aspects, but it is actually producing many side-effects to the Earth. Additionally, human is producing more and more non-reversible damage to our environment. For instances, the plastic bags and tools we can buy in supermarket. Once we throw them away, they will never be degraded by the environment. In addition, we have removed many nature resources for our "construction", such as building roads, and houses. Some of these resources cannot be re-built once removed. Many animals and plants living in the natural resources will be affected. In conclusion, we are destroying the environment. We are eliminating more resources than improving them, and we are making some destuctions than cannot be re-reversed. Human beings should treasure the Earth by making less devastion and teaching more students about environmental protection.

Can you rate my essay? The first Chinese spacecraft fired into space this year. Had the Chinese scientists given up during these ten years full of difficulties, Chinese would not have this breakthrough in Asian history. As there is always chances in reaching our goals, I absolutely agreed with the expression "ever, never give up". Firstly, we are always making progress if we put efforts in our tasks. All failures give is more information about how to perform better in latter trials. All scientists, researchers, and leaders have failures before reaching their current positions. However, the errors they have are valuable for them to reach their ultimate target. We should analysis the errors we have thoroughly and objectively. Einstein had overcome many difficulties before his dicovery of the Theory of Relativity, and he has one famous expression, "I have discoveried 100 ways that will not have successful results" for the explanation of his "failures" in finding out the theory. Additionally, had we stopped working for our goals, we will never reach them. In spite of how many reasons supporting one, he will never obtain his goals after his leaving away the path to his goals. One of my private tutor class students is quite smart in Mathematics. He told me that he also wanted to be a great student in Chinese and English. However, he gives up very quickly after finding difficulties in doing his exercises. In fact, these exercises are necessary to improve his academic results. If he keep this attitude towards learning, he will not become a great scholar as he often fails in his subjects. Despite how bright a person is, he will never reach his goal without continuous efforts. In conclusion, we will only be successful if we do not give up. We are always walking towards our goals even if we have to overcome many failures. In addition, people who give up will not obtain anything from his efforts. Therefore, all people should always do our best for a brighter future.

Can you give comments for my essay? If Columbus had not started his navigation, would we have discovered all places in our world today? As transportation improved, we started to move our home among cities. Although some of us like to stay in a city throughtout their lives for stable living style, there are many of us who want to take the chance of having better live by moving from one location to another location. In my opinion, moving in search of places suitable for us is always better than staying in a city. Firstly, ones can choose among places providing the best opportunties, such as better house, career, or community, by moving to new places. Before I moved to Los Angeles, I always thought that Hong Kong was the best home for me as it provided me most kinds of entertainments, job opportunties, and the best transportation. However, I changed my point of view after a year of study in UCLA. I noticed that Los Angeles has some advantages that Hong Kong lacks of, such as the awesome climate and diverse culture. On the other hand, Hong Kong are better than Los Angeles in its transportation and job opportunties provided for me. People who stay in a place forever will not find which place are better for them. In addition, even if people moved to a worse location they can choose to move to other places quickly. I have a friend who moved his houses every other year. He was my neighbor when I was in primary schools, and we were living in a village far from the down town. His family decided to move to the down town area for better transportation. However, he became my neighbor again last year, as his family missed the way they live here. We can have pets and plants in our village but not the down town. People who choose to leave a location can always move back to their previous home. Therefore, moving to a new place is not worse than staying in one location. In conclusion, people should consider moving to new places for better opportunities. We may find better jobs or entertainment in new places. We can always move to another place if we do not like the existing location. We should grab the opportunty of having a better home whenever we have chances to do so.

In addition, even if people moved to a worse location they can choose to move to other places quickly. I have a friend who moved his houses every other year. He was my neighbor when I was in primary schools, and we were living in a village far from the down town. His family decided to move to the down town area for better transportation. However, he became my neighbor again last year, as his family missed the way they live here. We can have pets and plants in our village but not the down town. People who choose to leave a location can always move back to their previous home. Therefore, moving to a new place is not worse than staying in one location. In conclusion, people should consider moving to new places for better opportunities. We may find better jobs or entertainment in new places. We can always move to another place if we do not like the existing location. We should grab the opportunty of having a better home whenever we have chances to do so.

Can anyone give comments for my essay? :) A few years ago, Chinese Herb was considered as an out-dated and potentially dangerous medicine. Although many old people insisted that Chinese Medicine was the best solution to cure diseases, the new generation doubted the effectiveness of Chinese Herb. However, the new way of applying Chinese Herb has thoroughly converted the situation recently. Therefore, I definitly agree that the new sceientific application and analysis of Chinese Herb is the most beneficial for people in China. First of all, the number of successful recovery has increased since the combination of Chinese Herb and Western medical methods. For example, Beijing doctors adopt Chinese Herb in addition to heart attact operation. As Chinese Herb was well known for its stablizing of body state, less side-effects were found after the operations. In addition, Chinese doctors started to introduce Chinese medicine in defeating cancers. Depsite some not so obvious improved cases, doctors found that the probability of successful operations for cancer patients has been increased. On the other hand, the scientific analysis of Chinese Herb is valuable for Chinese. In spite of the proved medicine, many unstable Chinese Herb were found to be unreliable. It is actually a good news for Chinese Herb doctors as they know which kind of medicine they cannot use any more. In fact, more young Chinese start using the safe Chinese Herb. There are more and more Chinese Herb doctors and pharmacies in the market. In conclusion, the new way of using Chinese Herb are fruitful for not only the Chinese Herb doctors, but also the Chinese patients. Many diseases are using Chinese medicine in the recovery process, and it helps the patient increase the successful chances. Futhermore, the recoginzation of valid and failure medicine assists clients and doctors to make their best choices. Therefore, Chinese Herb researches should be continue, and more patients, including Chinese and non-Chinese, will be benefited.

Can you give comments to my essay? If I had the power to create a new holiday, I would have a Friends' Day. We have celebrations and holidays for many respectful and great people. However, the ones give supports to us all the time, our friends, have no honor for all their supports. In addition, friendship is the most natural relationship among people, thus we should have a non-commerecial celebration for our buddies. Firstly, as all people close to us are honored by some celebrations or holidays, it is obvious that we should have a speical day for our friendship. We have Father's Day and Mother's Day for our parents; We have Martin Luthur King's Day for the great leader; We have Christmas for Jesus; We even have Valentine's Day for our lovers. However, our friends, the ones who support us many times, and give us advices daily, are not honored at all. Without friends, we cannot overcome many milestones in our life. Friends, who are our colleges, classmates, or play mates, share a lot of experience with us. Therefore, we should have a holiday to honor such primitive and valuable relationship among human beings. Additionally, we should celebrate this date in a special way. As friendship is one of the most primitive and natural relationship among human beings, we should celebrate it without in a natural way. Festivals are becoming more and more commericalized, and they are just golden chances for businessmen. We spent a lot of money to buy Christmas gifts, bought expensive rings and necklaces for our lovers on Valentine's Day, and had expensive dinners on Father's Day and Mother's Day. However, we should not allow Friends' Day to become one of these commercial festivals. We can have a picnic or a home-made dinner with our most valuable friends on that day. In conclusion, friends, who have helped us overcome much hardship, worth our honors. We should celebrate Friends' Day in a simple and nature way. A dinner is enough to tell the ones who understand you much that you treasure the friendship with them.

Can you give comments for my essay?:) Progress helps us solve many problems and give us more idea in dealing with controversial issues. Provided that progress is made in a controllable manner, I agree that progress is always a good thing. Firstly, progress in scienticfic fields can help us solve many practical problems. For example, the more cutting-edge computer techonlogy invented, the faster communication is; the more research results in Medicine, the more diseases are cured. Progress helps us solve more practical problems and give us better quality of life. In addition, with improvement in civilization, we will think of social issues more objectively and thoroughly. Before declaration of consititional law, many people were not aware of the freedom of speech; Before the civil war, skin color might make black people slaves; Before the awareness of the women and men's equality in last century, female were allowed to work in town. Progress in civilization helps us to build a more fair society. However, progress will be harmful if there is no constrain for it. The result of lack of nuclear technology regulation is the invention of nuclear bomb; The consequences of overwhelming cutting down of trees and unlimited use of paper are the greenhouse effects. Progress will become a bad thing when there is no direction for its improvement. In conclusion, improvement increases the quality of life, and eliminates many unfair phenomenon in our society. With long-sighted plans and enough guidelines, progress is always a good thing for human beings.
