Have you ever wondered why foreigners have trouble with the English Language?

Let's face it
English is a stupid language.
There is no egg in the eggplant
No ham in the hamburger
8 e5 B7 E7 m, P2 t+ n% ]6 B, P6 DAnd neither pine nor apple in the pineapple.
8 T% D9 h! p5 e' q) b) eEnglish muffins were not invented in England
French fries were not invented in France.
1 e3 E0 e; f- H+ k9 y5 s" F
/ t: h: a6 q1 g9 j# W2 j4 LWe sometimes take English for granted
But if we examine its paradoxes we find that
Quicksand takes you down slowly
/ M" A( I+ k4 K" U, m) TBoxing rings are square
And a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

If writers write, how come fingers don't fing.
$ I0 k3 u( N( s" o" A* bIf the plural of tooth is teeth
  ?, h1 O, B' CShouldn't the plural of phone booth be phone beeth
# S7 x3 m* q: I! BIf the teacher taught,
Why didn't the preacher praught.

What the heck does a humanitarian eat!?

Park on driveways and

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy
Of a language where a house can burn up as
/ U0 @- s3 B8 W( WIt burns down
And in which you fill in a form
By filling it out

我看了几行,就看不下去了.
1) 第一行, 为什么用Have? 不用现在时? 直接用现在时表达当前的意思! 用have,现在完成时,是典型的中国教学出来的思维.
% j' y4 P! Z4 I0 Y9 p' s( b* b! [2)还是第一行, 用... trouble in learning English. 你写出你的句子,就是LINK3水平.
/ j  s( U! S' @: Z) X+ L0 I8 @; g3)第二句: Let's face it. 可笑,可笑. 当然意思可以看的懂,但是写出这话, LINK2水平.
: r! x8 V# D& y% t( g- c! q- V4) 下一句: stupid 是太口语话了.如果要讽刺他,又带一些正式文章色彩,可以用not as ... as 来表达.
! L- x3 z0 f% w4 D; o, P其他的,我就不看了.好象LZ最近在学习E文. 你贴写文章出来,我帮你修改修改.虽然我也不行,但是可以帮你一些.

实话讲，这个文章还真不是中国人写的。所以并不是只有中国人才犯语法错误

能写出此文的人，一定是深得英文精髓。幽默，有趣。

我觉得这篇文章还是写的蛮好的。是楼主自己写的吗？如果是转帖应该注明出处吧。
