I enjoy hiking in beautiful places, especially the mountains and the ocean. I live near Mount Rainier and the Pacific Ocean. I have visited Italy. I especially like: Venice, Florence, Rome, Sorrento, the Amalfi Coast, and Pompeii. My favorite country is France. I hope to visit there one day.

    Thank you again for your corrections and alternative expressions. We have learned in school that we can use both "which" and "that' for restrictive clauses, and only 'which" is used for "nonrestrictive clauses". But in reality, as you say, things are different. I will be very careful on this word choice. thank you!

    Thank you very much for your corrections and detailed explanation with examples. I learned the structure of "keep + object + adverb", which I didn't notice. Also, it is good to learn the words like "print books" and "digital books", because I may use a lot from now on. Thank you!

    Thank you for your corrections and explanations. Weather or not I should use articles is very difficult in writing because we don't have the factor in Japanese. I should also learn more about preposition and gerunds. Thank you!

    Dear HappyTeacher, Thank you for the corrections and alternative words. It is so difficult to select appropriate articles, such as "the","a/an" and plurals. I understood why I should have used "strict rules" without "the". Thank you!

    Thank you always for your corrections and alternative expressions. I sometimes get confused of which I should use, singular or plural. I see meat like beef, pork and chicken are treated as singular form. Thank you!
