  1. Great context but pay more attention to your sentence structure and punctuation. Take your first 2 sentences as an example. You should connect two sentences as one because they are related to each other. To show the cause and effect relations, your sentence shall be written as "I prefer to use Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary because the definitions of it are easy to understand."
