Many years ago, Manhattan Island, is a part of the great city of New York,
(cover) with forest. Along its shores were small Indian villages. In fact, Indians were the only people on the island until 1609. In the spring of that year, Henry Hudson, a famous sea captain, arrived there. He was trying to find a short way to the Far East for Dutch traders. His ship was very small. It was only about the size of one of the
(lifeboat) you see on modern ocean liners today. Of course, Henry Hudson did not find a
(short) way to the Far East. Instead he reached the shores of North America. He came to the mouth of the large waterway now
(call) the Hudson River.
As he came near to the shore, he saw Indian village. The Indians seemed
(friend). They even came out to meet the ship and offered
furs to the Dutch sailor in exchange for glass beads and
small things. When Henry Hudson returned to Holland, he showed everyone the fine furs. He told of the rich soil, and the streams filled with fish. Later Dutch traders began to send many ships
the rich new world across the sea.

small village like ours,” Nick said.
Nick’s guests, had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy salt
(cheap) if they could. Nick replied, “The only reason why a man would sell salt at a lower price would be that he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect
the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it.”
“But such a small thing couldn't (possible) destroy a village.”
“In the beginning, there was only a very small amount of unfairness in the world, but everyone added a little, always (think) that it was only small and not very important, and look where we have ended up today.”

It is recommended that one of the effective ways to make your English writing skills improved should be keeping a diary.
(compare) with other form of writing， it takes
(little) time as well as being shorter. It is
(general) recognized that you will get to learn how to express yourself in English if you insist on practising. Apparently you may meet with
good many difficulties at times. The trouble is
you can not find appropriate words and phrases to give expression to your mind. In addition, there are lots of idiomatic ways of Chinese appearing in your diary.
my point of view, a piece of good advice is that there should be no
way more suitable than keeping a notebook and an English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever something
(beat) you, put
down and then consult the dictionary. Certainly you can get help from your English teacher if necessary. I’m sure it is of great use to keep a diary in English for the
(improve) of writing abilities.
