修改後
As we know, the National Palace Museum is a place where many precious things are exhibited/stored/housed.
故宮是非生命體，不會收藏東西。故用where(in which)，「在故宮」有很多珍品
2. 原句：

Since有兩種意思：
1. 已經過多久了

兩句都是我姊姊離開一個月了
2. 表原因
Since you know I can’t afford it, could you please stop persuading me to buy the car?
既然你知道我買不起，可不可以不要再說服我買車了？
3. I prefer classical music than pop music after learning cello. Therefore I was not a so-big-fan of Stef at that period. For a long time I didn’t addicted to her songs.

比較級：
1. 短音節形容詞在字尾加上er或是重複字尾加上er；長音節形容詞在前面加上more
e.g. The dog is big. The yellow dog is bigger than the black one.
※注意拼字！有些同學會寫把than寫成then(副詞，然後的意思)
※另外，修飾比較級可用much, far
例如：I think thatJapanese drama is much more exciting that Taiwanese ones.
prefer A to B是固定用法，請記住！
e.g.: I preger cats to dogs.
When it comes to sports, I prefer dancing to jogging.
2. 中文是說學大提琴，但是英文要說學「拉」大提琴。並要注意樂器前面是否要加the。
3. so 和such的分別
1) so後面加形容詞，以下用so…that「如此、以至於」來舉例
The dog is so cute that I can’t stop taking photos of it.
2) such後面加名詞
Such was my joy that I didn’t know how to describe it.
4. I went to Taipei to prepare graduate school exam; consequently, not until the exam was over did I see my parents. This was quite intolerable for me since I could only contact with my parents through telephone or Skype.

※注意及物和不及物動詞、介系詞搭配！

5. (Annie) In her hopeless mind, it is she that killed her father. Generally speaking, this kind of concept isn’t strange at all, especially for those who have suffered from the similar situations.
è In her hopelessness, Amy felt it was she that had killed her father. In fact, this kind of thought isn’t strange at all, especially for those who have suffered from similar situations.
※學一下形容詞名詞化的用法
happy→happiness; sad→sadness
happy→happiness; sad→sadness
※ Amy並非真的弒父，所以說Amy felt；在父親過世後她才這麼感覺，所以要用過去完成式
Generally speaking是大體而言；In fact是事實上，比較有轉折的意味
※注意定冠詞the的用法！
Men are impulsive.男人都是衝動的
The man is impulsive. 這個男人是衝動的(限定的某人)
A man is impulsive. 這句話文法上沒錯，但是是無意義的
6. 原句：
In this hot pot shop there has a good news for us that is their hot duck blood & bean curd , vegetable and rice are all free if you want to eat more.
修改後：
There is good news for us, which is, in this hot pot restaurant, hot duck blood & bean curd, vegetables and rice are all you can eat.
※中文是說火鍋店，但是英文要說火鍋「餐廳」，否則感覺上是賣鍋子的店。
※注意非生命體不能用has/have！
I have a dog.
There is a dog sleeping under the tree.
吃到飽餐廳的說法：all-you-can-eat restaurant，我個人認為PTT上面eat-to-die這個說法很傳神，不過還是寫正規的確保萬無一失
