Glad to direct the way for foreigners I feel very good today, it just because of something that happed last night, I directed the way for a tow guys, two foreigners. I'm on subway to went home after off duty last night. I practiced english listening as usual, you know, listen the podcast through my iPhone. And two foreign guys stood around me after a while. I really want to talk to them, you know, practice my english, lol. but I thought that maybe impolite, cause I even don't knew where they from, and if they can speak chinese. So, I keep listening my english, not bother the guys. Then, I got off at the transfer station, and prepare to went to the line 5. But I happed to found that the tow guys also want to transfer to line 5. And they were checking the ways through an app on there iPad. Hh, they seemed to unfarmiliar Beijing. So, I came close to them, and said: "May i help you?" I could't believe they hear me right away, it's amazing, my pronounciation was not good enough. Then, they said: "yeah". "Where you going?", I siad. They showed me the station that they want to be, so I direct the way that to line 5, and said: "Go this way, you need transfer to line 5, and take 2 stations , you'll get there." "Thank you!", one of them said. But I forgot to say "you are welcome" at that time, so I just make a gesture, and then the moved. It's really an amazing experience for me, it's seldom to talk to some foreign guys, make me very happy.

These days I have no writing anything these days. I do my work and have a regular Moon Festival, I have time to writing, but I don't know what to write down. Maybe I have some problems for learning english. You know, I have made some friends on this website, and there were some kindness people. I think they were seriously for learning language. And someone is really work hard for it. I have chatted with some guys through Skype or QQ, but the conversations were all about some very common things: where you from? what do you do? how old are you etc. It made me boring about it when repeat these words again and again. But I dont't know what to talk about anything else, so can you gave me some advice? And also , I want to practice my speaking, but I rare to meet these kind of people. It's easy to find someone chat with you, but it's really hard to find someone that keep in practice listenning and speaking with you. You know, it not only need people to talk, but also need make plans. Maybe I shoud make some plans, help me to talk to someone with some real contents, it can help me to improve my english speaking, and also can help someone to learning chinese. I want to help each other.

How can you imporve your listening?

Listenning and speaking is my short of english.

How can you improve listenning and speaking when you learning english?

I have keeped on listenning english a couple of months, but don't have really improvements.

So, how can you do that?

some sentence and words about Sickness I got a bit of cold. I got a bad cold. I got a bit of cough. I got a bad cough. How are you today? Oh, ont the best. Oh, what's the matter? You looks not a hundred of percent. You looks a bit off color. I got a headache, cough, and also a sore throat. Bad back-help me, does it mean 背疼 or 腰疼？ Pain stomache, pain belly, teeth sick, pain legs?(I'm not sure about these words.) What do you feel today? It's better today.

does't time fly? I heard a sentence early this morning: doesn't time fly. what's that means? Is it very common in oral english?

poor doggie--help me to correct this When I was walking my dog three days ago, I saw a very bad scene: a doggie was scraped by a car(not crash, I want to say "刮蹭", so if the word scraped is correct?). I was far away from the spot at first. I just curioused why a car was stop in the middle of the road, and the car going fast after a few seconds. The driver got off and saw something just a second, then he got on the car and drove fast go away. When I came closer, I heard that the doggie wailling loudly, make me very sorry and sad. Then I found the host, he looks very sad（how do you say "心疼"？）, there was no bleed for the doggie, so I think it's was wonded inner body(how do you say "内伤"？), maybe broken the bone. So, I suggested the host take the doggie to see a doctor, there war several pet hospitals around the neibourhood.

你吃过了吗？ how do you say that in english? "Do you have had dinner?" is right?

Is there any difference between "where you from" and "where you come from"? I'm confused about "where you from" and "where you come from", is there any difference between them? I listended a short conversation about immigration in radio yesterday, they said those sentences have different means in that situation, but I did't catch that. Anyone help me? Thanks.Thanks everyone. Maybe I should add some details for this question. Think about this situation: An american and a Chinese take a same flight to new york from Beijing, China. An the entrance, the immigrant officer may ask them the both questions: Where are you from? and Where do you come from?. So , how they answer the questions?

Tough days It's rellay tough days for me recently. I have to do something, because i had made a promise, and the time is close. But I really hate to do it, it's really time. Maybe I should calm down, then make a plan carefully. I should do it whatever how difficult it is. I will keep my promise, and be responsible for social business. Yeah, I'll do it, right now!
