典型的中国人写出的E文.该文写的非常差

我看了几行,就看不下去了.6 V9 o  i+ p9 W5 F1 f8 O! H
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.
& n3 }; ?" Z6 z- M$ B2)还是第一行, 用... trouble in learning English. 你写出你的句子,就是LINK3水平.
; L3 V  R9 L6 k2 h8 E) w2 X3)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./ C; O5 }1 q* s8 r4 R2 [" F
4) 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.
9 Q' k) v5 P  q- T& e4 i) ]9 C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.

2 k$ f; e# [) n# \+ L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
