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.
# ]1 T% a9 Y; q- m* V& V  |4 m# ~/ Y1) 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.
1 S. |! ~' x0 Y; P3 C& P) q2)还是第一行, 用... trouble in learning English. 你写出你的句子,就是LINK3水平.4 ^' [, x" z, B* X( \+ J' p
3)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.' i% J6 ]/ k8 x* }' Z9 ^2 l
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.
) o& a  ~2 _  W; e- U1 ]# O4 S, h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.

谦虚使人进步。不看完怎么知道文章的精髓呢?
. E$ M6 O6 k& Z2 r3 Y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
