January 26, 2008 at 7:59 PMBazza, reading for me was not too hard with the vocabulary help, but listening comprehension without the script, even after having read the script a couple of hours ago, was quite difficult (understood maybe 30%)...我的听力还太不好...所以一直练习...

January 7, 2008 at 11:34 AMWonderful lesson and discussion between John and Jenny! In the expansion exercises, we have: 上海一直是个很有活力的城市。 (Shanghai has always been a very vibrant city.) Does the following have the same meaning, or not? 上海一直是个很热闹的城市。It would seem this expresses the vibrancy more clearly. What is the difference between 估计 and 猜 ? Is 在外地 more commonly used for being away from home than 出门在外?

December 3, 2007 at 3:16 PM你好。 In exercises, screen 3, I think that the answer to both question 2 and 4 is 无聊, so there doesn't seem to be a question with 幽默 as the answer. 我把问题回答对不对? 谢谢你的帮助。

November 28, 2007 at 5:56 PMI learned 海 by itself as "sea", where 海洋 is ocean. Is 海 the more commonly spoken form for "sea" and 海洋 either a formal or written form? 谢谢你们帮助我.

January 30, 2008 at 3:56 PMjohnb, It could be that 洒盐 is used for spreading salt in China, because as I recall, the truck I saw two years ago was actually spreading a liquid on the street, perhaps dissolved salt solution, which seemed very effective at keeping the road clear (but there was not as much snow then as recently).
