Very useful discussion.

According to MDBG 主任 and 主人 both mean "Director, Master" etc but with different tones on "ren". Is there a large difference between the two and which is more common?

Great lesson. Like a Qing Wen inside an Elementary class for 是。。。。的!

Also good coverage of the difference between 找到 and 捡到。

Agree this is an issue, particularly on the App. 

It is constantly changing.

Short but sweet lesson.

Some useful grammar points and a good level of new words.

According to Pleco, 给力 is translated as "amazing; cool; awesome; nifty; impressive; great; wonderful". But in the context too the dialogue, 不给力 seems to imply "not working" rather than "not good".  

What other contexts would you use 给力 in? 可以说:

我的朋友是给力的

我的电脑都不给力

Thanks

我也去过山西;我跟同学们去悬空寺和云冈石窟。我们睡觉在大同;污染特别不好。
