When you are in a new place or trying to find your way around, it's important and necessary to know how to ask for directions. However, many ESL (English as a Second Language) learners may find it quite challenging to ask for directions in English.
When you ask for directions, use polite expressions to show respect (尊敬) for the person you're asking. If possible, put on a smile.
Once you've started the conversation, you'd better ask for directions by using simple sentences. Here are some English expressions for you to ask for directions.
*
*Excuse me. Can you give me directions to this house?
* What's the best way to reach Donald Street?
When receiving directions, it's important to make sure that you've understood them correctly to avoid getting lost or taking a longer way.
* Let me make sure I understood correctly. I should turn left, is that right? *
* Would it be possible for you to write down the directions for me?
Finally, when you have the information you need, don't forget to thank the person for his or her help.

B. Do I need to turn left at the central park?
C. Could you please tell me the way to the book shop? D. It can help you get there faster and avoid getting lost.

Whether yellow, red or white, the onion is a vegetable that you may not know well. The list of its uses in cooking is endless. People have used onions to add taste to their foods for thousands of years. Besides onions' great taste, they are very good for you. They have special chemicals (化学物质) that improve your ability to fight off sickness and you have fewer chances of getting a sickness.
No matter how good onions are for you, it is difficult to cut an onion without your eyes filling with tears! When you cut into an onion, irritating (刺激性的) chemicals inside the onion will get into the air. They touch your whole eyes and cause pain. Your eyes make tears to wash away the chemicals and protect your eyes.
Luckily, cooks and scientists have discovered some ways to keep you from crying when you cut up onions:
{#blank#}1{#/blank#} The water will wash away the chemicals before they can reach your eyes.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#} The air will blow the chemicals away from your eyes.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} This helps make the chemicals in the onion move slowly, so they may not ever reach your eyes. Also, this helps keep the onion fresh.
{#blank#}4{#/blank#} If you still cry while cutting onions, don't worry. Scientists think if you cut more onions, your body will become more resilient (适应的) to the onion's chemicals. So the tears will not last long. If you think about how healthy onions are, you might even call those tears "happy tears".
A. Try out these good ideas. B. Listen to music to relax yourself. C. Cut the onion under running water. D. Use a fan to blow air over the onion as you cut it. E. Put the onion in a fridge for an hour before cutting. |
Do you eat onions? What other vegetables do you think are healthy? Write down at least three.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}
A to-do list is like a note for you. Write down all the things you want to do or need to finish. It helps you plan your day and make sure you don't forget important things. What's on your list today? Maybe it will look like this.
