The personality test that I took is the Big Five Inventory. I took this test online on November 11, 2009. The website where the test is located is funeducation.com . The reason why I chose this test is very simple to understand. The Big Five Inventory personality test was the only test that I found online where I didn't have to pay. Other personality tests required a payment before one could the test. The Big Five Inventory test consists of forty- four questions. For each question, I was asked whether I agreed, disagreed, strongly disagreed, or strongly agreed on different activities. The test was very easy, and it only took thirty minutes to complete.

I was wondering if essay editing available? As people want to get attention from people, there are many ways. Some people make a tattoo on their body, build up their body, or make the body slim. When they’re dieting, some people choose a way to eat disorder and throw up what they eat. People get attention by an appearance mostly on the face or body that how much they are pretty or thin. People get obsessed with their weights when some fear that they won’t get any attention after they are not thin any more or some wants to diet but does not happen to be done easily. The idea where the eating disorder came from are getting common to people who desires so much to loose their weights. Rather than choosing...

Re: Usage of "broad strokes"

avangi — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 12:37:22 GMT

Sorry, Pernickety. I didn't tie that up very well! The metaphor obviously alludes to the artist's brush. I should think it would be used figuratively to favorably describe the work of other creators, such as God's work in laying out a beautiful sunset, or the grand lines of a Mahler symphony. I think on the other hand to say that someone paints with too broad a brush would mean they lacked discrimination. Have you checked out any of the collected examples of great writing?

The film gives vivid artistic depiction of how soldiers display the spirit of devotedly defending the leader and the spirit of protecting the homeland holding arms during the days of preparing themselves for battle through the scenes of servicepersons of the Korean People's Army decorating an ordinary day of training with profound loyalty and feat.

Personally, I feel that there is an element missing in this sentence. I may be wrong! Here is my training of thought: If the occasion is someone's birthday, then "the shape of the cake" is the birthday?, or wedding based on the structure of the sentence? I am trying to make sense of it by using a parellel: "Depending on the brand would be the price of the sunglasses". It sounds as pleasing to the ears as finger nails on blackboard, to mine anyway. I think if the sentence were "Depending on the occasion, the shape of the cake varies" it would have made more sense. I have no question about the use of "depending on", it's the noun phrase that I am having trouble...

Re: Intransitive verb: no passive form?

dimsumexpress — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 06:24:39 GMT

*the slept man *a belonged wallet *a left guest *the gone people *the arrived women *a disappeared rabbit *a died geranium Hi CJ, I get our point. I have no argument about intransitive participles not being able to appear in passive constructions. I merely tossed in my two cents on the participle usage. A fabricated story after being repeated enough times can become the absolute truth. This particular participle is the kind that can be preceived as adjective, or a noun phrase with passive cocnstruction, depending on one's English training. As I said before, this is my approach which works for me but may not be agreed with by the traditional rules.

dimsumexpress — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 09:58:30 GMT

Many learners are confused about past participles. I for one was. If I said "he was completely consumed for the past few days with the conference preparation." Do you consider "consumed" as participle adjective? Or passive construction? I was trained to look at it as passive. but I think they are both correct as ong as one can use them properly.

Hi, I'll give you my opinion. 1. a (0), b(0) 2. a (0), b(the) 3. a(0) 4. a(0) 1. Communication, learning and teaching can all be seen as abstract nouns which take no article if used in a general sense. Sometimes when you're referring to a particular instance of an abstract noun phrase you can use 'a'. (Simplex communication is a one way communication ...). 2. Modifying phrases don't often influence the choice of articles. In your examples the words being modified are 'teaching and learning' so no article is needed. 3.

People who have finished college or university get specific domain knowledge based on their major. That means, companies can reduce the training cost and time for new staff. New staff can handle their work expeditiously. On the other hand, it is clear what abilities do people with high-level studies have and their specialties can be foreseen, being based on their major.
