× I often go to the library first week.
✓ I often go to the library in the first week.
The original sentence lacks the necessary preposition 'in' to indicate the time frame 'first week'. Adding 'in' clarifies that the action happens during the first week, which is the correct usage in English.
× I often go to the library first week.
✓ I often go to the library in the first week.
The phrase 'first week' requires the preposition 'in' to specify the time period. Without 'in', the sentence is grammatically incorrect.
× I also want to make friends with others, so I think it is a great place.
✓ I also want to make friends, so I think it is a great place.
The phrase 'make friends with others' is redundant because 'make friends' already implies 'with others'. Removing 'with others' makes the sentence more natural and grammatically correct.
× I usually study English and read some books about economic history and so on.
✓ I usually study English and read some books about economic history and so on.
No correction needed here as 'about' is correctly used to indicate the subject of the books.
× I usually study English and read some books about economics, history and so on.
✓ I usually study English and read some books about economics, history, and so on.
Adding a comma before 'and so on' improves clarity and follows standard punctuation rules.
× When I was a kid I didn't go to the library because my parents didn't tell me where it was.
✓ When I was a kid, I didn't go to the library because my parents didn't tell me where it was.
A comma after the introductory clause 'When I was a kid' is necessary for correct sentence structure and readability.
× This is the reason I felt terrible, but at now I know the library exists.
✓ This is the reason I felt terrible, but now I know the library exists.
The phrase 'at now' is incorrect. The correct expression is simply 'now' to indicate the present time.
× So this is my opening, I think.
✓ So this is my opinion, I think.
The word 'opening' is incorrect in this context. The correct word is 'opinion' to express a personal view.
× I think Chinese kids don't often go to the library because they have a lot of homework in the Chinese education system.
✓ I think Chinese kids don't often go to the library because they have a lot of homework under the Chinese education system.
The preposition 'under' is more appropriate than 'in' when referring to a system or framework.
