English prepositions have always been a perceived problem for Chinese ESL learners. However, scant studies have been conducted with a specific focus on the use of prepositions of time, place and direction among Chinese ESL learners. This study examined the extent of errors and the error tendencies of these students in their written assignments with regard to these prepositions. This study also attempted to explain the causes of errors made. A total of 38 students in a Chinese national-type secondary school were involved in translating Chinese texts laced with prepositions of time, place and direction into English. Subjects made most errors in using the preposition of time (39.5%) compared to preposition of direction (34.6%) and preposition of place (25.9%). Among the three error tendencies, wrong selection of prepositions was the most prominent (64.7%). This indicated the uncertainty and ambiguity of Chinese students in selecting the correct prepositions in their translation. The major.....

A collection of Halim Teh's comics are studied from the 1950?s to the 1980?s. Halim Teh was chosen because he had been constantly producing comics for thirty years. The researcher thinks the comics that were produced were a valuable art assets worth a study. In his research, the researcher segmented Halim Teh's comics into 4 eras ; the 50?s, the 60?s, the 70?s and the 80?s. The reason for this segmentation is so that we can see how themes, forms and styles were Halim Teh?s preference in prolonging his comics. In this way, it is hoped that we can trace and see the era differences with the chosen theme, forms and styles. Nevertheless, with the chosen theme, there might be a similarity with other comic artists that were active during his time. Besides, the researcher will be able to choose several Halim Teh's comics for visual description through a variety of visual experiences. This approach is going through several stages, description, formal analysis, interpretation and evaluation. Tho.....
