Expansion uses the following construction:

下课了，可是老师还是说不停

Could one also use either of these:

下课了，但老师讲保持

or

下课了，但老师讲保持

I am wondering what the difference in tone or connotation would be across these three variants?

I am confused by placement of gei wo (give me) in phrases.  When does it come before the noun and when  does it come after the noun?  Thus, does it matter if one says:

Ni keyi fa yi zhang zhaopian gei wo ma?

or

Ni keyi gei wo fa yi zhang zhaopian ma?

OK, another usage question.  In the expansion you use 让 (rang) in the sentence "the boss sent him." I would have thought to use 送 (song) instead.  I tend to think of 让 as allow (the translation you give if I put my cursor over the character) or to give permission whereas 送 as send?

When I look up "admire" i get loads of different possibilities ranging from 欣赏 to 慕 mu, 敬服 jing fu, and 佩服, pei fu.  What is the difference in usage please?
