Today I learned about how to sum up the article. The first step is to read article, understand what the article talk about. The next, we should find what is the most important thing in this article. The last step is organize and summarize the information and use your own words to express the main ideals or thesis statement. I think it useful when we reading something, we can have a deeply comprehension and get more information during our reading time. It is also can improve our reading ability.
I also have some gains in grammar. For the Adjective(Relative)clause, we often use that, which， who in the sentence.
For example, "I find a girl. she is cute." Merge into one sentence, "I find a girl who is cute." The "who" in here is subject. "I found a girl. I talked to her." Merge into one sentence, "I found a girl who I talked to." The "who" in here is object. Appositive is a problem for me. "Kitty Parry is nice. She is a singer." Merge into one sentence, I can say "Kitty Parry, who is a singer, is nice." As well I can say "Kitty Parry, a singer, is nice." And this is appositive. All the things I learned in this week, I ought to practice more and review them again and again.

Welcome to EAP 140. It’s been a tough week, but it’s good to see you’re still here and trying hard. Your blog posts are good, and you are writing a lot about grammar you have learned so far, but don't forget to you should be reviewing and summarizing patterns and grammar with clear, full-sentence examples in your own words. Doing this shows me that you really understand what is being taught in class and what is expected in this course. 6/10
