Chinese Proverb


"Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself."

I'm very sorry...

You are a waiter at a nice restaurant. A customer complains that her food wasn't good, but she's already eaten all of it. You want to apologize, but you can't bring her another meal, so you say this to smooth things over.
I'm very sorry that it didn't meet your standards.

You can't just sit around feeling sorry for yourself forever.

Your roommate broke up with his girlfriend two weeks ago. Since then, he's been at home every day and seems depressed.
You don't want to see him being depressed any longer. So you say this to try to encourage him to go out and have fun with other people.

What's the difference?

The words "beautiful", "pretty", "gorgeous", and "handsome" all describe something which looks good. When several words have the same meaning, how can you choose which one to use?
