identify the errors in each of the three paragraphs
Friends,
At the back of your test (page 607, I think), there is an exercise I need you to take to help you identify and correct errors. I need you to identify the errors in each of the three paragraphs (a, b, and c), then rewrite each paragraph correctly.
So, for instance, in Paragraph “a” you could say, “The first word in the first line, “Company’s” should be “Companies.”
You may submit your work as a text file or as a Word document.
“Company’s are finding it to their advantage to cultivate their suppliers. Partnerships between a company and it’s suppliers can yield hefty payoffs for both company and supplier. One example is Bailey Controls an Ohio headquartered company. Bailey make control systems for big factories. They treat suppliers almost like departments of their own company. When a Bailey employee passes a laser scanner over a bins bar code the supplier is instantly alerted to send more parts”
“Entrepreneur Trip Hawkins appears in Japanese ads for the video game system his company designed. “It plugs into the future! he says in one ad, in a cameo spliced into shots of U.S kids playing the games. Hawkins is one of several US celebrieties and business people whom plug products on Japanese TV. Jodie Foster, harrison ford, and Charlie Sheen adverstises canned coffee beer and cigarettes respectively.”
“Mid size firms employing between 100 and 1000 peopole represent only 4% of com-panies in the U.S.; but create 33% of all new jobs. One observe attributes their success to their being small enough to take advantage of economic opportunity’s agilely, but big enough to have access to credit and to operate on a national or even international scale. The biggest hiring area for midsize company’s is wholesale and retail sales (38% of jobs), construction (20% of jobs, manufacturing (19% of jobs), and services (18 of jobs).”
