2347270357?profile=originalMy dear friends! In this blog I'd like to summarize the results of my last American test for you to have some fun at the beginning of the weekend and for you to remember some necessary words and some useful information. So, let's start!

The synonym for TRAIN turned out to be the most complicated word and it is of no wonder. It is the oldest city transport still popular in Europe, but I am unsure you all have seen it. As to America, there were many streetcars here before, but now there are almost

Time Management

Time Management, seems important as it is one of the topics, but so far as I am concerned I am not a student any more nor do I belong to the higher or highest management of an organization.  Time management is important rather essential for a student to which his studies must have his/her priority, and they all are attracted towards extracurricular activities.  So they need ‘time management’.  

On the other hand there are the categories of the people like high profile management, w

Grammar Help Desk

Did you read Josef's  'MyEC Recommended Features' for this month? I hope so - if you've just checked your email. 

Don't miss the 'Englishclub Grammar' recommended by Josef.  I'd recommend 'Grammar Help Desk', where you can ask any question related to English grammar, and Alan, a native English teacher, will help answer it. 

You may find the 'desk' useful, especially when you're unsure about a sentence you wrote or written by others. Or, when somebody just corrected you, and you doubt whether the c

JUST DON'T DO IT!

Les Baker, a photographer, had each individual take a different substance. "I took a portrait of each person while they were peaking on the substance. I then overlaid a picture or something that symbolized the substance they were on," Les said.

Warning: Drugs are dangerous and they ruin your life, so do NOT recreate this at home. 

This one's my favorite, though!

Are you a fan of classic literature? Why do I ask? 'Cause when it comes to it, folks can be divided into three categories:

A. Those who have read it.
B. Those who pretend to have read it.
C. Those who keep telling they’re gonna read it, but never do.

My hat is off to the first group, but to be honest, I can’t blame those who belong to B. and C. categories. After all, classic novels usually seem intimidating. War and Peace is over 1,400 pages, Don Quixote is close to 1000, and James Joyce’s Ulysses

Then I was a 5 or 6 year old girl. Little and naive! One evening   my brother and I went to my grandpa's house. There we found my middle  uncle got a pet. It was a little dog with chain on.

We were surprised and mesmerized to see such a little creature. I asked my  granny its name and many more questions. But, I couldn't say when it scratched on one of my legs!  And, I forget whereas there was only scratch or blood came out. I told my granny but as I was not a big girl like today so, did not beca

My dear criminal,
I hope you got the oranges I sent you last week and didn't share them with anybody because in each of them was a little "surprise". You know, I am doing my best to be nice wife and that's why I decided to send you my first letter after 10 years you have already spent in that one federal prison. Time is flying, right? It feels like yesterday, when we had this terrible night fight in our house during which you did your best to kill me. I am smiling, when I remember you chasing me

My name is Jimmy. When I was a baby my mum's owner abandoned me in the bin. I was crying and crying. Suddenly a old woman came near me and took me out of the bin. She took me home and  bath me and she gave me warm milk and food. From that day I was living with her. My adopted mum was so good.  She bought me a beautiful belt around my neck and she gave me very clean and fresh food every day.

He did not answer and he even continued to wash his hands without turning his head to her. Amina was angry. She told her husband whether he became deaf or something. Still, no reply.
