WRITING SELF-CORRECTION CODE

This is a common tool to optimise learning opportunities from mistakes students make in written homework and to encourage the self-correction to get to know the mistakes and do not repeat them any longer. I'll show you where the mistakes are and what kind they are, and then you must try to correct them as a second stage to the initial writing task. The codes shown here is what you might find in your writing all over this course. It's your task to find them and correct them properly.

SUBJECT & OBJECT QUESTIONS: GRAMMAR AND EXERCISES

When we usually learn about how to make a question, we learn about object questions, because they are the most common type of question. The normal rules that you learn about making questions, such as inverting the question word and the auxiliary verb, or adding 'do', 'does' or 'did', are all used in object questions. 'Who kissed John?' is a subject question. We don't need to use inversion, or add 'did'. Instead, we just take out 'Lucy' from the answer (which is a normal sentence) and add 'who'. We generally make subject questions using 'who' or 'what'.
