Hi
Could you please tell me what the expressions "white socks" and "pocket protector" mean in the quote below? Thank you.
Countable nouns are things which can be counted. That means that when there is more than one of them, you need to add 's'. Also, when a countable noun is singular an article (a/an/the) is often used with it.
e.g. There are too many factories.
A - Practice changing these sentences from Direct to Reported Speech. You do not need to change the verb tense.
E.g. Nancy: The world is beautiful.
Nancy says (that) the world is beautiful.
1. Bobby: Jacob has a lot of friends.
2. Diane: It's time to get ready.
3. Mike: The weather is great today.
4. Drew: Most people are friendly.
5. Stacy: It a beautiful day.
I am preparing for TOEFL Ibt, but my ability in English is a little weak. especially in speaking skill, so if tutors, friends who know how to speak English well, please show me.
Maybe I can say my speaking skills is really terrible. I say without stress and no intonation. My speech is always level.
Please share your experiences in improving in English skills.
Thanks in advance
Best regards.

When talking about the future, we can use will..., going to...or the Present Continuous.
Use will to talk facts or things that we believe are true.
"I'm sure you will love learning English in Malta. It's a great place."
Going to is used with predictions.
Passive sentences are used to focus on the object, or when the agent is unknown. The object of the active verb is the subject of the passive verb. Compare:
Active: The boy broke the cup.
Passive: The cup was broken (by the boy).
In passives, the subject does not perform the action in the sentence - the action is performed on it.
