What are the incorect sentences?
What is the best thing about you guys? How can I figure out what question is faulty for preparing a test? In my quotes, I have to identify one excerpt with a grammar mistake. I have the test results, so I know which sentences are wrong, but I don’t know why. I don’t know what you are writing, could you please help me? What is the mistake in the sentence? I’m
taking this test on June 8 :/ 1 –
Where is the mistake in the sentence Yet in the years since the late 1980s, gyrating oil prices – with the exception of a brief spike during the Gulf War – have become a thing of the past.
What does it mean to live by this one?
The tower, built in Tokyo’s eastern ward of Sumida, will replace the existing Tokyo Tower in 2013, after replacing the current building in April 2015.
Thank you so much!!
How well do you know yourself?
- How can the US economy be awash in rising oil prices?
When he wrote about an item in a parenthetical, it is the same information of time or currency. It is there to add extra information about the time and not about prices. This should be moved closer to what it describes.
- The tower will replace the existing Tokyo Tower in 2020.
Apart from the illogicality of something that has already come into existence replacing something else only in the future, I would say that since the location of the tower is not the most important point of the sentence, em dashes are the stronger parenthetical mark
Both the sentence sentences have the same grammar errors: the actions denoted by the verbs have been completed at a certain point of time in the past. So, the verbs should be in the past tense form. Die sentences can be corrected as:
Yet in the years since the late 1980s, gyrating oil prices – with the exception of a brief spike during the Gulf War – became a thing of the past.
The tower replaces the existing Tokyo Tower in 2011.
