wherein lies the great differences from chinese, some of the words can be used as both a noun and a verb, something of the usage of ancient chinese, which makes sentences hard for starters and movers in English-learning to understand. I suppose, in china, we have studied English over 6 or more years, but seldom did we use English in real life but exams, which helps account for our poor spoken English. Learning a language hangs on practice a lot. Much obliged for your kind sharing with us.

Unfortunately, I don't know Chinese and Electronic translation would result in a mess. Besides, it would be hard to find matching chinese words. Hope you would find a suitable translation.

20 reasons, 20 examples... whatever. Those sentences does show the  intricacies of the English language.  A dictionary may help. You should split up the sentences and try understand the same word but with difference meanings.
