Peer Editing (to Susan Li)

CLARITY
About Susan Li’s blog entries most of which make sense well, so I can understand plainly what those topics are. Her opinion on each article is given clearly. The organization should be improved to a more conspicuous layout. And the style is casual so that I could read them in a free and relaxed mood. But
some places are unclear, for example, the position of her opinion couldn’t be found instantly.

GRAMMAR ﹠PUNCTUATION ﹠SPELLING ERRORS
Grammar:
1. Nouns: count/uncount noun, possessive pronoun
2. Verb tenses: the gerund, the participle
3. Subject-verb agreement
4. The passive tense
5. Preposition combinations
6. Subordinating conjunction: though, but, since
7. The causative: followed by the simple form of a verb, not an infinitive
8. The verb “be”: uses as an auxiliary verb in progressive verb tenses and in the passive
9. Noun clauses beginning with a question word
10. Forms of “other”: (only two) one…the other…
11. Compound word

Punctuation:
1. Apostrophes: add only an apostrophe to a plural noun that ends in –s; add an apostrophe and –s to plural nouns that end in –s
2. Question mark

The following sentences are errors concluding the revisions which I made orderly after looking over all of the articles of the blog carefully. And I suggest that Susan Li should check the context once more as soon as she finishes it.
