Final T's Correction for ARTICLE AND NOTE by I.Sinakijevic



Ivana, I hope these corrections will also be helpful.

Article- The article has 222 words instead of 150, and the note 89 instead of 100.
- It would be y good idea to indent your paragraphs in order to make them more prominent.
- you’ll be – you will be (stronger)
- ‘Green Issue’ represented the ‘Adopt a whale’ ...
This is an unfinished sentence, which is not suitable for your task – you are the one who is writing the article for the ’Green Issues’ of your college magazine.
- represent – present.
’Represent’ means ’to act for another person or people’, and ’present’ means ’to
make known’.
- like – such as or for example/instance
- black and white photo - a black and white photo
- make an amazing experience – have / go through an amazing experience
- charity – a charity

Note- The first sentence should include thanks for the advert.
- an advert – the advert. You and your friend know which one.
- but not suitable for Peter – not very tactful, make it softer, e.g. ’I’m not sure it would be quite suitable for Peter.’ You should also explain why.
- We don’t even know if he has a video – make it softer, e.g. ’We don’t know if he has a video, either.’
- it is boring – it could be boring
- elder guy – an older guy (elder is mostly used for members of a family)
- He won’t have time to look after him – the rubric implies whales in the wild
- The book – a book
- But – Anyway,
- Was - is
