All these days after the holiday started, i’ve been doing a little bit praperation for the coming two english tests, remember words and phrases, also the grammer.

Talking about grammer, i’m really sick of it. You might be surprised that how can a college student majoring english doesn’t know the grammer at all! and i’m gonna tell you that, it is ture for me. I always feel that the way teachers teached us grammer was really misleading, of course i’m talking about senior high school period. While we were having grammer classes, teachers always wrote a whole blackboard the theories, then tell us to copy every single words they have wrote, then several pieces of examples which made us even more confused. No excerices, no discussions which means you have to take those things all by yourself. No wonder i know nothing about grammer after almost 9 years of english studying! So i make up my mind at the beginning of the holiday that i must conquer the grammer this time, no excuse, no compromise, after that, i will remain on this beginner’s stage no more! And after 2 weeks of grammer learning, i feel that what i’ve learned during this period is much more than what i’d learned in the past 9 years! Great, huh?

But i found some grammer points are still hard to master, for example, the prepositions, let me quote something i saw on a grammer learning website.

Even advanced learners of english find prepositions difficult, as a 1:1 translation is usually not possible. One preposition in your native language might have several translations depending on the situation.

There are hardly any rules as to when to use which preposition. The only way to learn prepositions is looking them up in a dictionary, reading a lot in english literatures and learning useful phrases off by heart.

you see? It seems that i still have a long way to go to achieve my grammer-mastering goal.

Pray for me guys…
