My favourite sport is football (yes I'm a typical Italian 
), however my dad is very keen on cycling so I'm a bit too: I don't know Armstrong's whole story, but I think it's a shame that a person who managed to defeat cancer, started racing again (stronger than ever) and became a symbol of his sport makes use of drugs!
No problem! It's a pleasure to help when I can!
Actually, my marks are very good in every subject and especially in English and Maths. Moreover, I'm sitting my FCE exam next March so my English must be "in good shape" now! 
EDIT: By the way, "hard to judge" sounds fine to me!

@Marco: thank you for explanations, you are very clever: what are your marks?

I know a lot of things about the recent story of Lance Armstrong, and for this reason I don't like cycling.
How can you love a sport where the players have a lot of problems with illegal substances?

Hi guys, finally sport: in this forum nobody talks about sport! My favourite sport is cycling, do you think about Lance Armstrong? He is a complicate person, it is hard to(?) judge.

I was thinking to that from several days and, now, I have the answer!
Kobe Bryant look like Nicolas Anelka!
(see the photos on wikipedia: http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolas_Anelka,
expecially the second one).
Isn't it?
Mmm.. I don't agree with you!
Anelka is whiter than Kobe Bryant and he's a tipical French guy with african esthetic characteristics.
And Kobe plays the best sport in the world, Anelka doesn't do it
"marcosocio":
And Juventus are probably going to buy him! (I mean Anelka, not Kobe
I know... I know
Yes you're right! And Juventus are probably going to buy him! (I mean Anelka, not Kobe )
PS: your first sentence would sound weird to an English-speaking person, much better "I've been thinking of that for several days" (it's called duration form)

He's Kobe Bryant, my idol and the captain of the Los Angeles Lakers.
He's one of the best player ever, perhaps the best basketball player in activity.

See you later if I survive...
We can't use a future tense in an if clause, but nevermind, you'll learn it when you improve: it's called double future I think.
PS: see? I said "you'll learn it when you improve" and not "you'll learn it when you will improve" because, in general, there cannot be a future tense in a subordinate clause (when, if, after, before...). Take a look at this: http://www.pearsonlongman.com/ae/azar/g ... /00044.htm

Good evening Giovanni,
I'm sick, just flu, but I feel strong headache: I want to break my head
See you later if I'll survive...
Get well soon!
Flu is tiresome...
...get away from math for some days if you don't want to get worse
.

A BSc, also called Bachelor's degree, is the italian “laurea” (triennale). Since I graduate in Italy, it is exactly what I mean. In the “International Standard Classification of Education” it is the level 5 (First stage of tertiary education).
Thank you for this information. We never stop to improve our knowledge.
Greetings to all.

How are you, gio73? How does your English look like?[/size]
Fortunately I have got neither any physical problem nor big difficulties in solving physics problems!
"marcosocio":
@vict85 Understood, thanks! Actually, as mathematics are a sort of passion for me, I'm already trying to learn something more than what we do at school. For example, I participate in some extra lessons that my teacher gives us about "unusual" topics for a high school, I'm buying a series of books out at the newsagent's and so on...
What do you mean with "improve your physical problem-solving skills"?
perhaps you have problems in "Physics" , not physical problems. or, at least, I hope that for you, guy.
"vict85":
If you are not able to do simple physics problems, you DO NOT know physics, and you DO NOT really understand it.
[size=85]I'm not able to do simple physics problems; I don't know physics, but I understand it a little. In University I did only 2 physics exams (thanks to God).
[/size]
If you are not able to do simple physics problems, you DO NOT know physics, and you DO NOT really understand it. However, you can graduate in physics without any previous knowledge in physics, you don't need to know it. Anyway, I suggest you to try the Physics problems of the Normale Ammission test and to test your Physics skills (http://www.sns.it/didattica/ammissione_ ... roveesame/).
I totally agree but I must say that my teacher is a great woman and knows exactly where to put a stress so I wouldn't worry about it (yet)!

I vividly remember the disdain of my professor of “Fisica 1”, when he said, in Turin, the high-school students don't do problems in their lessons of physic. I attended high school in Vercelli, and I did a lot of physics problems. Actually, I think high school physic's theory is broadly useless and even more unproductive without at least a basic ability to do physics problems.
P.S.: Ok, my error... I want to say physics problems and not physical problems
On the contrary, I had never heard "newsstand"
Newsagent : quite british term I had never heard , I am more familiar with newsstand ( American )
