My expectancy in 2010:)

The year 2010 has come, year 2009 had passed. To think look back upon the things that happened during the last year. I had a great time with friends; I was in trouble for the studying. Now the new year 2010 have brought a new start.

I have many new goals that I expect to do in this year. First, I expect myself to pass all my subjects in this semester. Then, I would like experiencing the time of part-time job, as long as I can find one. In the next semester, I expect myself to study harder and try to call back the passion of learning English as I had in the high school. Then prepare for the official examinations of Japanese and TOLIC. Of course, besides the schoolwork, I would like to do many interesting things and go to many interesting places with my good friends. We would have other great memories in this year.

I always have much new expectancy in each new year. I don’t expect that I can do them all perfect, but I would try my best to reach the goals.

Comparsion of dictionaries:)

Languages are getting more important and more important in this global world. Except the mother language, more and more people learn a second language and even the several foreign languages. In the wake of this prevalence of learning other languages, the dictionaries are becoming an indispensable tool to learn language well. There are two kinds of dictionaries in general: dictionaries and electronic dictionaries.

Because there are so many words in a language; dictionaries usually are very heavy and uneasy to be carried. Comparing the dictionaries, electronic dictionaries are much lighter and portable. People prefer to bring an electronic dictionary with them but not a dictionary. However, dictionaries might still are superior in their vocabulary to electronic dictionaries. Because of the limit of its memory storage, electronic dictionaries have not as many functions as dictionaries.

These two kinds of dictionary are the most common kinds in the market. Either kind of dictionary is useful. And people choose either kind which they think is more convenient to them. It can be different from person to person. As the technology advancing, there might be another new kind of dictionary for people to use.
