Read the excerpt from The Secret Garden:

The most absorbing thing, however, was the preparations to be made before Colin could be transported with sufficient secrecy to the garden... It was almost as serious and elaborately thought out as the plans of march made by great generals in time of war.

What is the meaning of the figurative language "the plans of march made by great generals in time of war"?
Quickly

yes, post it and i can try to you out.

we need to see the paragraphs in order to answer this.

answer: sure

explanation: i'd love to know everything but that burden is too much to bare.

as we know, the english language is spoken all over the world by native and non-native speakers and has become the most certain tool when it comes to communicating. businesses, schools, even romantic relationships depend on it to keep thriving. in addition, it is the language of the internet not only because most of the content available is in english, but also because people prefer to use it when talking to others, since it's the language everyone supposedly learns.

yet, there have been some current claims that chinese will soon take over as the most important language in the world. china's magnitude has never been more evident and doing business with the chinese is a gold mine for any country. we now see language schools offering chinese courses as commonly as english.

however - even though we cannot deny china's importance and the advantage it is when someone takes the time to learn the language their business contact speaks-, people in general seem to be ignoring the aspects that seem to keep english as the chosen one of languages. one of them has been mentioned above: it is the language of the internet. also, chinese people are still learning english, since it opens doors in communicating with practically everyone else, from every single country.

note: if this is not the sort of transition you need, let me know. : d
