E11 More practice with ""

     
·       More practice “”


PohPoh does not like to show affection to Jook

Liang: “elbowed away”. (33) 

NOT INCORPORATED


Jook-Liang tried to give her grandma a hug, but

PohPoh “elbowed [her] away”. (33)


[ ] square brackets- add a word or two so it is

grammatical


[ ] a tool in your toolbox






Jook-Liang tries to give her grandma a hug, but


the little girl is “elbowed away” by PohPoh.


I wrote the sentence to match the quotation.






Jung Sum found a “snakelike, angry… turtle” in the shed. (78)
... ellipsis


Jung Sum found a “snakelike… eye-glittering… turtle” in the shed. (78)


LESS MANIPULATION IS BETTER




... [ ] A little goes a long way.
