My stomach hurts so much.. from laughing because my chinese text book is too entertaining.

Here are some real samples for sentence structures:

"That person looks evil"
"After all, the subway is not a place where you could stay forever"
"He should find a job to feed himself so he can avoid being frozen to death on the street when winter comes"
"How could I not know that drinking cannot eliminate worries? When I cannot control myself, I am addicted to alcohol"
"Are you willing to give up work for your family and stay away from society?"
"He likes to read all novels about love and romance"
"This house is full of bad fumes"
"You have to pay for the meals, because they are not free"
"You can read whatever books you want, except for pornography books"

Boy, are we in for an adventure or what.
