Good question.

This type of verb: 喜欢/觉得/认为, doesn't have past tense. so it should always be ‘不'. not '没'

我觉得吧,这个句子其实错了。应该是“我喜欢游泳,因为它给了我快乐,给了我健康。”:)

Actually 这 is 'zh' 怎is 'z'. We consider 'zh' and 'z' are totally different letters. That's why 这 sound different from 怎. You can listen to:

如果你可以看汉字,我觉得这套书比较适合Intermediate的学生看:

《汉语风》中文分级系列读物 http://www.amazon.cn/%E4%B8%A4%E4%B8%AA%E6%83%B3%E4%B8%8A%E5%A4%A9%E7%9A%84%E5%AD%A9%E5%AD%90-%E5%88%98%E6%9C%88%E5%8D%8E/dp/B0017RBS2E

这是一套书,有不同的level。

笑死我了。You should be our spokesman.

I like this one: 'Cpod won't make a formal announcement about video lessons if Cpod decides to discontinue video lessons. '

To be honest, we plan several more lessons for this year. One is in the pipeline.
