F2F Class Notes (Tibo) (S)

Last class we were having online class.

I prefer reading by the internet and I think it is more convenient and I like quick and short reading.
books are too heavy to bring outside and I have no patience to read for a long time so I choose the online reading.

I like read some articles instead of the long history.
I read about fashion and

When I watch movies I would cry.

Unless they don’t look trustworthy, most people are trustworthy. And we shouldn’t judge people as bad

face to face can help us to realise if someone is trustworthy / to feel his or her character.
When I am younger before I trust people online but I was cheated in train station because a man who wanted to borrow money from me and he said he had  lost his money and he can’t  bought the ticket so I trusted him and borrowed the money but he deleted my telephone. this is the first time I was cheated then I won’t borrow money to anyone I don’t know.

Last class we had an online class.

I prefer reading on the internet and I think it is more convenient and I like quick and short reading.
Books are too heavy to bring outside and I have no patience to read for a long time so I prefer online reading.

I like to read / I like reading some articles instead of a long story.
I read about fashion.

When I watch movies I often/sometimes cry. / I easily get emotional and cry.

Unless they don’t look trustworthy,I believe most people are trustworthy. And we shouldn’t judge people as bad / we shouldn’t judge people if we don’t know them.

When you meet people face to face it can help us to realise if someone is trustworthy / to feel his or her character.
When I was younger I trusted people online but I was cheated in a train station because a man wanted to borrow money from me and he said he had  lost his money and he couldn’t buy / he said he had lost his wallet and couldn’t buy tickets so I trusted him and lent the money but he never answered my calls/he blacklisted me / he delete my WeChat.
This is the first time I was cheated, since then I won’t lend money to anyone I don’t know.

If you like traveling, I’m going to recommend you a book called “Lonely Planet”. Actually it’s a magazine, because it is organised/separated in different series.
The book is like a travel guide of the world, it contains 220 countries and areas. You can see the brief introductions of the country, the basic informations of diets and traffic/transportation, also the famous tourist attractions/spots with pictures. It can help people know more about the place and is just like a guide.
It even helped us to travel virtually during the period of the virus/pandemic/epidemic.
Comparing with the information you get online, this book is more trustworthy  and comprehensive.
As the book says: With the book, the world is in your hands.
