Grammatical rules: 1. Grammatical rules Point out the topic sentence and supporting sentences in the following paragraph Manual labor is one of the principal development resources in any industrializing country, as the following examples demonstrate. To begin with, plowing fields, planting and harvesting crops, and raising livestock are all important to development and require people who work with their hands. Secondly, mining natural resources, building roads and bridges, and constructing dams for irrigation and electrical power are also important to development and also require people who know how to use their hands skillfully. Finally, the establishment of efficient transportation and communication systems, essential services in a modernizing economy, relies heavily on a labor force of expert craftsmen who take pride in their manual skills. And of course, the manufacture as well as the maintenance of machines of all kinds demands a large number of trained mechanics and technicians. Clearly, in agriculture and in industry, the progress of a country depends on the busy hands of its working people. back2. Applying: 2. Applying Read the following paragraph. One or more irrelevant sentences were added to it. Identify these irrelevant sentences and cross them out. My Favorite Hobbies I enjoy three hobbies in my free time. My first hobby is playing with my two-year-old son. I especially like to teach him new words. He listens very carefully to me and copies what I say. I also like to take him for walks. When his small hands cling to my hand, I feel so close to him, and his wide smile warms my heart. If we play ball, he gets excited and screams with joy. Unfortunately, the ball makes the neighbor’s dog bark. My second hobby is watching TV with my son. We watch Sesame Street together almost every day. It helps us learn English. The English on the news is too fast and really frustrates me. My son sits beside me, and sometimes we laugh until the tears come. My third hobby is planting flowers in my garden. When I am watering the flowers, I feel a joy like the joy I feel when I am feeding my son. When I see the plants and flowers grow up inch by inch, I think of how my son is growing up, too. I wish the snails would stop eating my plants, though. These three hobbies fill me with a special pleasure like none I have ever experienced before. nextSlide54: B.

You may add some words, phrases or even sentences to make the paragraph smooth and coherent. a. Owning a car can be expensive. b. First, you have to purchase the car itself. c.

You buy it at over a dollar a gallon. h. You drive an average of 100 miles a week. You spend $6 to $10 a week. i You have to spend money for maintenance, such as tune-ups and lubrications. next4.
