Marian,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quite a long article for most to read. Basically only a few people here are native speakers of English, so there&amp;#039;s no need to specify this part. Your article is quite well-written, thus I will only give some pointers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[Paragraph Two]&lt;br /&gt;Since obtaining a Master&amp;#039;s degree in graduate study....., I do not want to make compromise&lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;s&lt;/span&gt; on the quality of my education. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;On&lt;/span&gt; account of that I &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;researched extensively&lt;/span&gt;,.... The &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;information gathered&lt;/span&gt; was good enough to understand...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[Paragraph Three]&lt;br /&gt;It has &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;piqued&lt;/span&gt; my interest... my inclination towards business began from &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;an&lt;/span&gt; early age.... I began to assist him &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;in dealing&lt;/span&gt; with family business and accompanied him &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;to&lt;/span&gt; business meetings.....&lt;br /&gt;to selling &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;jewellery/jewelry&lt;/span&gt;,....&lt;br /&gt;I believe &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;these were&lt;/span&gt; extremely useful and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000ff;&quot;&gt;serve as&lt;/span&gt; insightful experiences into the world of business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will continue with the remaining parts later. Besides, I recommend you making some of the details shorter. For example, you might just say &amp;quot;how he conducted his business (activities)&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;how he was working, talking with colleagues and negotiating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tim</description>

Carollin,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The following are some pointers for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. visited &lt;del&gt;to&lt;/del&gt; many beautiful places&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. I think tourism is a field &lt;del&gt;which is&lt;/del&gt; full of challenges and &lt;del&gt;interesting&lt;/del&gt; fun&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. The work&lt;del&gt;ing&lt;/del&gt; quality and environment attracted me a lot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. the tourism and recreation &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000FF;&quot;&gt;industries&lt;/span&gt; have&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. I &lt;del&gt;promoted&lt;/del&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;color: #0000FF;&quot;&gt;polished up on the four skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. I emphasized &lt;del&gt;on&lt;/del&gt; my Japanese learning&lt;br /&gt;   (but you should better rewrite this part to make it more sensible)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Having good language abilities, I believe I can bring my vantages into full play in this field.&lt;br /&gt;   (better rewrite this sentence too)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tim</description>

-Paragraph-&lt;br /&gt;In conclusion, in order to keep up with &lt;b&gt;the pace of&lt;/b&gt; the times, &lt;b&gt;good command of&lt;/b&gt; English is very important in a career. I think I can make use of English to &lt;del&gt;advance my&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;create&lt;/b&gt; advantage for my future career. Besides, &lt;del&gt;I can most close&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;it can help me to get closer&lt;/b&gt; to the whole world in the future. I wish to use what I &lt;b&gt;have&lt;/b&gt; learned &lt;del&gt;for&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;in&lt;/b&gt; my future career &lt;del&gt;and&lt;/del&gt; to strengthen my &lt;del&gt;competitive ability&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;competitiveness advantage&lt;/b&gt; &lt;del&gt;with&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;on&lt;/b&gt; others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Sentence-&lt;br /&gt;1. Therefore, English can help me &lt;del&gt;make more competitive&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;increase my competing power&lt;/b&gt; in my future career.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Due to the trend of internationalization now&lt;b&gt;adays&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;del&gt;and&lt;/del&gt; the second language has become &lt;del&gt;a necessary&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;an essential&lt;/b&gt; ability in life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;del&gt;that&amp;#039;s&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;These are the errors&lt;/b&gt; my teacher pointed out &lt;del&gt;my error&lt;/del&gt; in my homework. &lt;del&gt;has&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;Can&lt;/b&gt; anybody &lt;del&gt;can&lt;/del&gt; correct &lt;del&gt;it&lt;/del&gt; &lt;b&gt;them for me&lt;/b&gt;? Thanks ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;+++++++++&lt;br /&gt;Hope it helps.</description>

Hi Aspirant&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trading compliments with you, my son expresses praise and admiration for your entry into The University of Chicago.  He sends his regards and best wishes, in which I join him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To your “EURO” question, perhaps it may be termed the ‘Euro Creep’.  Try the internet to see if you can find any answers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers.</description>
