Compose a 500 words assignment on grammar errors. Needs to be plagiarism free! 579265 Grammar Errors In the article ‘Taming the Testing/Grading Cycle in Lecture es Centered around Open-Ended Assessments’, the author uses the phrase “centered around” to suggest that the strategy focuses on open-ended assessments (Schinske 46). However, the phrase fails to portray the emphasis on open-ended assessments. To correct this, the author would have used the phrase “centered on” to indicate that open-ended assessments are the main focus of the grading cycle. Similarly, the title of the book ‘More Perfect Unions’ by Davis captures the attention of the reader but fails in grammar (Davis cover page). The correct title would have been “Perfect Unions”, since perfection is absolute. It is not possible to have a better object than a perfect one, thus, the phrase “more perfect” is wrong. Lacquaniti et al. explore malnutrition in elderly people diagnosed with kidney problems who are on dialysis (Lacquaniti, Bolignano and Campo 240). The authors note that “Numerous hormonal and depletive elements concur in the pathogenesis of malnutrition, and while some can be ascribed to dialysis itself…” The authors give the wrong meaning of the sentence, since they want to point out that dialysis can cause malnutrition but there is another causative factor. The word “while” should, therefore, be replaced with the word “although” to portray that both are risk factors in malnutrition, but the others are the main causes. In the book ‘Lecturing: A Practical Guide’, Brown and Race use the term “enthuse” to indicate how students can be trained to enjoy a lecture (Brown and Race 11). The use of the word enthuse, however, does not portray the urgency of the training. A better way would be to use the term “motivate”, which indicates the need to excite the students. In the book ‘Subsidence due to fluid withdrawal’ by Chilingar, Donaldson and Yen, the sentence “…caused by compaction of reservoir rocks due to the increase of stress due to reduction of fluid pore pressure” is ambiguous (Chilingar, Donaldson and Yen 197). The use of the phrase ‘due to’ in the first section is wrong, and should be replaced with ‘resulting from’. In the second section, it should be replaced with ‘and’. “…Embarrassment might be analyzed as…fear plus anger…” is a phrase from ‘The Subtlety of Emotions’ by Ben-Ze’ev (Ben-Ze'ev 104). The use of the term “plus” in the sentence is wrong, since it does not refer to figures or any numerically measurable objects. The correct word should be “and”, since it shows that both are factors in embarrassment. Dwyer reports that the Education Secretary in the U.S “feels very, very badly…” (Dwyer). The use of the phrase “feel badly” does not emphasize more than the correct phrase. The sentence should, therefore, use ‘feel bad’, as it gives the same meaning without grammatical errors. The sentence “… and regarding hairy persons as demons” (Arluke and Sanders 108) is grammatically wrong due to the use of the word “regarding”. Since the intent of the author was to portray that hairy people are perceived as demons, words like ‘showing’ or ‘presenting’ may have been used. Similarly, the sentence “The true reason why…is because” (Popes 37) is grammatically wrong. The sentence introduces redundancy by using the two words in the same sentence. Since the two words have similar meaning, the author would have avoided the word “because” and proceeded to give the reason. In “…as if he expected the enemy to suddenly stop, apologize…” (Crane 40), the use of the adverb ‘suddenly’ is misplaced. To correct this error, the author would have placed it at the end of the word “stop”, or avoided it altogether. Works Cited Arluke, Arnold and Clinton Sanders. Regarding Animals.
