[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 403338, member: 1514"] Do they even do sentence diagramming anymore? That would help with the knowing how to put a sentence together. In that first sentence he is missing the verb. "Finally, the main part of the museum the holocaust and the events leading up to it." It should read [COLOR=red]" Finally, the main part of the museum is the Holocaust and the events leading up to it." [COLOR=black]If that is what he is trying to say. [/COLOR][/COLOR] There is a way to use conversational language and formal language in the same paper but it takes work. I pulled it off in a couple of term papers in HS. One I remember well was on a paper on the dangers of drinking alcohol for teens...lol. I started the paper off as if I, the author, was chatting with a group of friends as we left HS on a Friday afternoon for a weekend of fun and parties. Then I went into the heart of the paper with my thesis and body. I brought it to summation as the author merged back into that teen on Monday morning and all the students found out that one of their friends was killed in a drunk driving accident that weekend. I sure wish I had kept some of that stuff. [/QUOTE]
