Young sara.b.young@anglistik.uni-giessen.de www.uni-giessen.de/~ga1047 Subject and Verb Agreement: The Basics A subject must agree with its verb in number. Ann always tells the truth. The twins always tell the truth. A phrase or clause that comes between a subject and the verb does not affect subject-verb agreement. The captain of the guards stands at attention. The troopers whom the captain put in charge of the roadblock stand on either side. Compound subjects consist of two or more subjects usually connected by or or and. Specific rules apply to compound subjects. Two or more singular subjects joined by or or nor must have a singular verb. o Beth or Sally is going to represent us. Two or more plural subjects joined by or or nor must have a plural verb. o The class presidents or the student council members are going to represent us. If one or more subjects are singular and the others are plural and they are joined by or or nor, the subject closest to the verb determines agreement. o Beth, Sally, or the twins are going to represent us. o Either the twins or Sally is going to represent us. A compound subject joined by and is generally plural and must have a plural verb. The conjunction and generally acts as a plus sign. Whether the parts of a compound subject joined...

You were very distracted during your ENGL 101 class last Friday; you have talked with your instructor about you failing it. I know that you are trying to solve your problems by yourself; however, I think that at this point you need help from our tutors to keep you focused on completing your assignments. You need to come to Achieve and work for at least 20 hours a week to make up all the points you have missed so far. When you come, do not work by yourself, ask a tutor to be with you, the number of hours you have spent at Achieve over the past weeks is in discordance with the number of hours you have worked with tutors....

...worlds can be compared and contrasted by everyone. | Keandra Guilmant April 25th, 2016 EN1150 Composition 1 Keandra Guilmant April 25th, 2016 EN1150 Composition 1 4/20/2016 4/20/2016 The way students in high school and college should feel is “It’s just another necessity we need in life.” Almost everyone goes through such a transition between two very diverse and different worlds. These diverse worlds can be compared and contrasted by everyone; however, not all are aware of the possible similarities and differences between them. The purpose of this essay is to compare the students’ high school and college life in terms of the level of academic responsibilities, time schedule, as well as the culture practiced by each student. First of all, high school is the first step to a higher level of learning. This place equips us with the proper knowledge needed in order to survive college and other higher levels of learning. The topics being taught in high school are generalized in basic Math, Science, English, and many other subjects. The students are more relaxed and their responsibilities are not that complicated and heavy in a sense that there are fewer requirements and their due dates are not immediate. Compared to the time schedule of college students, a high school pupil’s schedule is much more fixed because the standard call time is at 7:30a.m. And end at 5:00p.m. Students are much more immature and need guidance in order to lead fulfilling lives. They...

...prose selections, deepening their awareness of rhetoric and how language works. Through close reading and frequent writing, students develop their ability to work with language and texts in order to establish greater awareness of purpose and strategy, while strengthening their own composing abilities. C16 Students examine rhetoric in essays, images, movies, novels, and speeches. They frequently confer about their writing by conferencing in class. C 14 Feedback is given both before and after students revise their work to help them develop logical organization, enhanced by specific techniques to increase coherence. Rhetorical structures, graphic organizers, and work on repetition, transitions, and emphasis are addressed. I comment on individual drafts, and I write memos to the class in a blog about whole-class concerns such as specificity of quotations, parallelism, and transitions. C13 Simultaneously, students review the simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentence classifications. We examine word order, length, and surprising constructions. Loose and periodic sentences are introduced. We examine sample sentences and discuss how change affects tone, purpose, and credibility of the author/speaker. In addition, feedback on producing sentence structure variety is focused on critical thinking skills, evaluating sources and resources, using specific details to support general conclusions, revising for the best possible way to sue the language to express ideas...
