F2F Class Notes 17th March (Tony) [S]

Go and Come

Example: Timothy is in Shanghai, tomorrow he will be in Beijing.

He is talking to a friend in Shanghai. “I will go to Beijing tomorrow.”

And a friend in Beijing. “I will come to Beijing tomorrow.”

Using Go or Come depends on who you are talking to. And where they are.


Speaking exercise

Tell me about what you did last month:

Original –

Last month after Chinese new year I went to start work. But I have more things I need to do. I just went to study English about three times. At the end of last month my group have some important project needed to complete. In the every colleague cooperate together, but the process have more problem. the program need to complete a laser system to watch for three dimensional image. but the process have more problem in every stage (every stage had issues). Every stage need to coordinate with professional colleagues. Scanning the image needs an electrical engineer, a computer engineer, and an optical engineer to control the scanner and test the scanner property.

Correction

Last month after Chinese new year I went back to/came back to work. But I have more things I need to do. I could only go to English class about three times this month. At the end of last month my group had an important project that needed to be completed. Because every colleague had to cooperate, the process had more problems. We need to complete a laser system to scan a three dimensional object. but every stage had issues.  Our professional colleagues needed to coordinate on every stage. Scanning the image requires an electrical engineer, a computer engineer, and an optical engineer to control the scanner and test the scanner properties.
