Love ceases to be a pleasure when it ceases to be a secret. 4. While I was trying to open the door, I broke the key. 5. Susan takes ballet lessons. 6. My little daughter can put such puzzles together. 7. David can’t read. 8. People used to believe there are nine planets in the solar system, but now there is a different point of view. 9.

Focus on Syntax Mind that faulty word order in a sentence can create confusion and lead to misunderstanding. Cf: It’s the most impressive tower clock I’ve ever seen. It’s the most impressive clock tower I’ve ever seen. In the first case a person speaks of a clock, in the second he or she speaks of a tower. The same goes for misplaced modifiers. In fact, misplaced modifiers can be responsible for some hilariously ambiguous sentences. Here are some examples: We have a parrot in a cage that talks. (A talking cage? What a surprise!) Send us your ideas on growing roses on a postcard. (Growing roses on a postcard? It’s unheard of!) *Цитирирование части задания со ссылкой на учебник производится исключительно в учебных целях для лучшего понимания разбора решения задания.
