     This week we used several different on line dictionaries, it's more easier and convenient than paper dictionary. Usually I'll try to find the first character when i use paper dictionary, and search next till whole words. On line dictionary just type characters and it's show up. It's helpful for my quick reading.
     The most important for me is function, meaning and listen to audio, especially audio, it's help me to spelling. I like Merricam-Webseter's more, and it has the cleanest page. But audio using second window is not smart. 
     This is my first time using English English dictionary, some of the words are hard to understanding in English, but this is a opportunity which let me learn and think more English.

     I just come back from my hometown now. I meet my family almost every week.We love eat dinner together,especially Taiwanese food like night market.Here is a picture for my introduction to you.This shop named "麻將台北麻辣臭豆腐",'it's sells stinky-tofu by a couple.

The best reason why i choice is there have a great smell more than spicy. I'm not eat spicy well but this one.Every time when i walk to buy i can smell even i didn't got there.And it's also famous in this town.If someone as doesn't like spicy as me maybe you can try it :)
