The essay must be well structured (ie organised) and presented in a way that the reader finds easy to follow and clear:it must look tidy and not present any obstacles to the reader.It must have a clear readable interesting style.But,above all,it must consist of your ideas about literary texts.This is the centre of it:this,and this only,gets the marks.Not quotes from critics,not generalisations at second hand about literary history,not filling and padding; your thoughts,that you have had while in the act of reading specific bits of literary texts,which can be adduced in the form of quotations to back up your arguments.

How to Breastfeed
Some people may think that breastfeeding is an innate ability of mother and child.This is partially true in that the first instinct a baby has is to suck.However,most of breastfeeding is an acquired skill that takes a little practice.It?important to not become discouraged,especially in those first few weeks.Learning the proper technique will ensure you get the least amount of discomfort and the most amount of joy out of breastfeeding.The two key parts to proper breastfeeding are positioning and latch-on techniques.
Having the correct position for both you and your baby will ensure the most comfort.First,position yourself as comfortably as possible.Remember,if you?e relaxed your milk flow will be much better.Sit up in bed on in a comfy chair,and get several pillows for support.Put one on your back,one in your lap,and one under the arm that will support your baby.Nursing pillows like the Boppy are very helpful.If you?e sitting in a chair,use a footstool to prop up your feet.For baby,start with him being lightly dressed or undressed.This will keep him from completely falling asleep so he can finish feeding.Position your baby?neck on the fold in your arm let your forearm support his back and your hand his butt.Bring baby onto his side where he faces you tummy to tummy.Next,raise baby to breast level with a pillow and tuck away any little hands or arms.Now,wrap baby around you,and you?e ready for latching on.
The next essential part to successful breastfeeding is the proper latch-on techniques.Before you begin,express a little milk or colostrum and present your breast to baby.As soon as your baby opens his mouth wide bring him onto your breast.Make sure he takes in a lot of your areola,not just the nipple.This will greatly reduce any nipple pain.If baby?lips aren?everted (turned out),use your index finger to gently open the lips.Finally,support the weight of your breast so as to not tire out your little one.
Your spouse can take an active role while breastfeeding.I know as a father,I wanted to help my wife share the burden and joys as much as I could.I knew my wife was making the best decision for our baby.A spouse can be a strong support during this time.The spouse can help by rubbing Mom?feet and shoulders to aid in relaxation.They can bring the baby to Mom during the night,so she doesn?have to get out of bed.They can even help during the first few days buy helping baby latch on.Breastfeeding can be challenging,but is incredibly rewarding.

Mandarin Chinese sentence structure is quite different than English or other European languages.Since the word order doesn't match,sentences which are translated word-for-word to Mandarin will be difficult to understand.You must learn to think in Mandarin Chinese when speaking the language.
Subject (who)
Just like English,Mandarin Chinese subjects come at the beginning of the sentence.
Time (when)
Time expressions come immediately before or after the subject.
John yesterday went to the doctor.
Yesterday John went to the doctor.
Place (where)
To explain where an event happened,the place expression comes before the verb.
Mary in school met her friend.
Prepositional Phrase (with whom,to whom etc.)
These are phrases which qualify an activity.They are placed before the verb and after the place expression.
Susan yesterday at work with her friend ate lunch.
Object
The Mandarin Chinese object has a great deal of flexibility.It is usually placed after the verb,but other possibilities include before the verb,before the subject,or even omitted.Conversational Mandarin often omits both the subject and the object when the context makes the meaning clear.
