Exercise One
a) Many various studies suggest that there are dangerous levels of chemical X in the Ohio groudwater.
b) Americans today tend to beleive that this novel has certain flaws.
c) Many people assume that football is so boring.
d) It is often said that male students often dominate class discussions.
e) Common sense seems to dictate that the film is really about the problems of romantic relationships.
f) You would think that templates like the ones in this ook will stifle my creativity.
Exercise Two
If ever there was an idea custom-made for a Jay Leno monlogue, this was it: Robert Pattinson hasn't showered his hair since the making of Twilight. Isn't that like not brushing your teeth? Whatever happened to daily showers and personal hygene?
I happen to sympathize with Rob, though, perhaps because my hair takes forever to look perfect as well and i wouldn't want to shower it all the time either. I mean, come on, the guy is known for his incredible messy signiture hair. Would you wash a million dollars? No, and thats exactly why he doesn't shower his million dollar hair. Many people may think its disgusting but if thats whats making him successful then i say go for it rob!! don't shower!!

Hi Nadeen. Your exercise #2 paragraph is great! The directions said find something that was not only disagreeable but also laughable and you nailed it! I think you did a great job showing the two contrasting sides in both paragraphs, which just helped me get a better understanding of the argument, even if it was crazy. Your "they said" intro's in exercise #1 are also nicely done. It doesn't sound like you repeated any of them, they all seem original. The only thing I noticed is the presence of unecessary words like "so" in part B. or the double use of the word often in part D. Sometimes extra little words just make a sentense more complicated than it has to be rather than clarifying it.
ReplyDeleteBoth of your exercises are well done. Your exercise #2 topic was very funny and I like how you just ran with it into another paragraph. The only problem I found was a couple of typos. In letter F. of exercise #1, I think you meant to write book instead of "ook". In exercise #2 "hygene" should be hygiene. Toward the end of the paragraph, in the sentence "go for it rob!!" Rob should be capitalized.
