E2L (or E3L, etc.) ?? What do you mean? I come here for learning, not for undertaking your depreciation, even though I am a non-lative learner of English. Remember this please!
Jijia,
This is what I'd use when I would want to replace the expression in this situation. What you want is ''as difficult as climbing up this sky'' = What you want is impossible. (You want the impossible)

Do not try to invent English phrases. Just copy the phrases you see in your listening and reading. Imitate them and use them. Read and listen a lot and you will improve.
Thanks for your kind-hearted advice.
Maybe this is an unchangeable rule that we MUST not invent English phrases when we non-lative learner of English is learning English, otherwise, they are inventing English, right? Yeah, I remember that a book which I read before said: There is a popular view that the great scientific breakthroughs occur by inspiration, a little bit like someone looking down and saying ' Aha '. But we are here for learning English and we have to comply with the rule established or created by those advanced learners; otherwise, I will be in an isolated position, right? From a non-native learners of English. Please correct me if anything is grammatically wrong. Many thanks!
There are no such people called non-native learners, because every learner is supposed to be non-native.
