Agenda
Tuesday:
- continuation of discussion of SAS
- New essay: The Opposite of Loneliness
- Test tomorrow – make sure you have a pen
- study the resources on the blog:
- the test is mostly multiple choice but has a section where you need to correct two incorrect (non-parallel sentences) by making them parallel
- there is another section where you have to identity the pattern that makes the sentence parallel; here are the patterns – so make sure you understand them:
- Verb tense pattern
- Subject – verb agreement pattern
- Correlative conjunction pattern (not only, but – neither, nor – either, or…)
- Prepositional phrases pattern
- Subordinate clauses pattern – which begin with subordinate conjunctions
Monday:
- homework check for the annotations and questions – A South African Storm
- discussion of above
- reminder – test on Parallel Structure on Wednesday, November 6
