I’m Alejandro, I’m a student who completed 140 class which is level 6.  I would talk about the good things and bad things in class 140. Then i’m gonna move really quick to mention some suggestion to make 140 as perfect class for students.

First of all, I will talk about the curriculum of 140 class. The curriculum was a pretty good. I admit that it’s so helpful for me. And the diversity of the subjects helped to make the curriculum very helpful. And I like that we practice so much in class. I mean, we always doing our assignments during the class. Actually is better to put all your effort in your assignment during class. And that is good if you miss with something, you may ask your classmate for help. That is the most thing I like it in our class.

The bad thing that I noticed in our class that is there are some of students who depending on the other students. And that is so bad. That happened because teachers are not that much strict. So, I highly suggest that teacher should become more strictly than they were. Because that definitely is for student’s interests.

In the end I would like to thank Melissa and all teachers who taught me in this lovely school.

And wish them the best in their life.

thank you

Alejandro (:

As I said, I’m going to continue explaining some more examples about irregular verbs. So the first example in this blog is “I think every cartoonist in America has (drew / drawn) at least one caricature of a president”. the correct answer is drawn because has always needs a participle after. I couldn't believe it when my mother said that gasoline (cost / costed) fifty cents a gallon when she got her license. the correct answer is cost because there is no word called costed. So, here we finished all blogs. no blogs any more and no grammar quizzes any more.  

thank you

In 27-4 quiz. it was about irregular verbs. I did pretty good on it. So as usual i’m going to explain some examples about irregular verbs. First, How many times have you (swore / sworn) to yourself, "I'll diet tomorrow, after one more piece of cheesecake"?. the correct answer is sworen because of this kind of a grammar the past participle required. Another example: The tutor was satisfied that Max had (wrote / written) a fairly intelligent essay. the correct answer is written because the same rule with the first example. I will continue in the next blog.

thank you

In 26-4 quiz, I got full score. It was the same to 26-3 quiz. it was about adjective and adverb too. So, in this blog i’m going to continue with the same topic by giving and explaining more examples. All of us on the team felt (bad / badly) about our performance. the correct answer is bad because felt is a linking verb. This incident could have been handled more (professional / professionally) if lines of communication had been kept open. The correct answer is professionally because it modify the verb such as a handled. So, here we finished with adjective and adverb.

thank you

in 26-3 quiz, I did good on it, and it was about adjective and adverb. So, I’m going to give you some example of that topic then I will explain the answer. first example: Most city rats are Norway rats; they came on ships from Europe, and their numbers grew very (quick / quickly). The correct answer is quickly because it describe the meaning of the verp grew. So, adverb is a word or phrase that qualifies the adjective or verb or other adverb. And the adjective is a word or phrase comes after the noun. So, here we finished.

thank you  

In 25-2 quiz, I did a very good on it. It was about “whom” and “who”. And I have been studying this subject since level four. So I’m good on it. Whom and who, when do we use whom And when do we use who!?. So, we use “ who” when we ask which person does an action. And we use “ whom” when we ask which person received an action. For example: Who did kiss me when I was sleeping?. We asked About the person who kissed me ( the person who did an action). Whom did you kiss yesterday?. We asked about the person whom he kissed ( who received an action).

thank you (:

Notice : All blogs was written by Alejandro ( His own words)  

In 23-5 quiz, was also about pronoun references. But in this time, It was with different type of question. It comes with correct the sentence. And now I will write some sentences from the quiz and I will explain the mistakes. We have a staff of experienced technicians that will service your copier within two hours of a service call. In this sentence we should not use “that” because technicians are people, So we should use “ who” instead of “that”. In Professor Jamal's class, you are lucky to earn a C. I think it’s good sentence but there is small misleading mistake which it is “ you”. Better use students to make the sentence more clear.

In 23-4 quiz, was exactly the same to 23-3 quiz. But I did pretty good in 23-4 quiz. So, I’m gonna show you more examples of pronoun reference. In my hometown, (we / you) wait on the bus and fix dinner and go to the store for light bread. I used “we” in this example because “you”  does not mean anyone in general. Another example: We are proud of our children, three of (whom / which) have become legislators. I used “whom” because It’s for the noun and I didn’t use “which” because it’s for things. And the noun was “ our children “, So I used the word “ whom”.

In 23-3 quiz, It was so hard for me. I didn’t even understand the point of that quiz. It was really hard. It was about Pronoun reference. But after I made research, I realized what the quiz was about. So, the pronoun reference is words to define the pronoun clearly. such as it, they, that, those, this, etc. For example, take the phone out of the car and fix it. So, If read this example you won’t be able to know which item should be fixed. Because it has two possible item: car and the phone. So, the answer is not clear. to make it clear just use car or the radio and the end of the sentence.
