Download or read book Grammar Nonsense and What To Do about It written by Hugh Dellar and published by Wayzgoose Press. This book was released on with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you hate teaching some aspects of grammar? Do you ever feel frustrated that your students just don’t get it? Well, in Grammar Nonsense, Andrew Walkley and Hugh Dellar argue that you shouldn’t really blame yourself. The fault lies largely with the way grammar rules and methods have been passed down through training and published material and become established as the way of doing things: a straightjacket that we need to escape from. Through an entertaining series of rants and meditations on all things grammatical, from the use of the word grammar to the horror of teaching verb patterns, they aim to pull apart rules which we give without thinking and to question approaches to practice that are seen as a must. Along the way, you’ll not only learn how published materials get written and about ideas such as the transformation fallacy and grammar olives, but you’ll also get plenty of practical suggestions as to what to do about all this nonsense.

Download or read book Common Nonsense written by Kabembo Chinku and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's almost a universal phenomenon. Nobody knows when, how, and why it started, but society somehow allows their political leaders to get away with nearly anything, up to and including murder- at least in many countries in Asia, Eastern Europe, Africa, and Central and South America. Here in these United States of America, no one is suggesting (at least not me) that our political leaders are guilty of committing murders. To the extent that anybody can accuse them of such, it's their enacting of lax gun laws at the behest of the NRA. Thanks to these laws, anyone applying for a permit to buy an automatic assault weapon is no more subjected to rigorous background check than they are buying candy. By this and this alone, U.S. politicians are partly to blame in the deaths of innocent people. Anyway, this book is not about murders or guns. In a way though, it's about "death"- the death of reason and sense in politics. It's about some insidious behavior that politicians get away with. Society itself is to blame for tacitly permitting politicians to engage in such a behavior. So here in the United States, as is the case everywhere, politicians get away with too much: Corruption; lying or showing a disdain for facts; being lazy; stealing; and cheating on their spouses. We also allow them to make promises that they can't possibly keep- or never keeping promises that they can easily keep. We have put the bar for tolerable behaviors, or conduct expected of our leaders, very low. We have reached a stage where the moral code of our politicians is on par with, if not worse than, that of criminals. Well, this author decided to draw a line, a "red line," if you want to be dramatic, on dumbassedness- or rather- on the dumb things that the people we look up to in society, especially our political leaders, say. They can get away with lying, being corrupt, etc., but they will not be let off so easily for saying things that are decidedly dumb. Just as Iran will hear from Israel and the U.S. if its nuclear (or as George W. Bush would say, "nucular") ambitions crosses Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu's somewhat arbitrary "red line," politicians here will hear from me if and when they cross my own arbitrarily laid "dumbassedness" red line. Like most citizens, I'll tolerate- barely- such maladapted behaviors of our politicians as corruption, cheating, infidelity, lying, not keeping campaign promises, etc., but not dumbassedness. This is what this book is about. This author's blood boils when he hears these stupid politicians, like Indiana's U.S. Senate candidate, Richard Mourdock say such things as, "A woman being raped and conceiving as a result, is in God's grand scheme of things." That is, God wanted it that way, and therefore that the victim shouldn't be allowed to terminate such a pregnancy. Unlike most books, this is not one long, continuous story. One need not necessarily start reading from page one or chapter one successively to the last. One can jump around, or even begin with the last chapter. Every chapter is a stand-alone chapter. There is no "continuity" to worry about if you decide to read the book in a sort of haphazard manner. You're going to encounter unbelievable dumbassedness of our politicians on every page.Politicians and other leaders of society may get away with having the morals and ethics of alley cats, but I ́ll be damned if I ́ll let them get away with the immaturity of pre-adolescents and the dumbassedness of a jackass. This is my raison d ́etre, or if you want to be "religious" about it, it ́s my calling.Let me add that had my sense of self-preservation not been so heightened, I ́d have moved to Russia to take on Emperor Vladimir Putin.But I don ́t like having Polonium-210 as part of my diet. Thank you and enjoy. Kabembo Chinku.

Her husband, Zhu Shifei, was a divorced man, but that didn't stop them from loving each other.However, after the wedding, Zhuang Yaju was faced with her mother-in-law's picky eyes, as well as the cold treatment left behind by her husband's ex-wife, Shuang Er. However, she endured all of this. She was waiting, waiting for the day where she could use her heart and sincerity to melt those three hearts. Among them, her husband's consideration and care was the greatest motivation for her to stick to her family.However, before the turning point could appear, another woman appeared. Li Mei, a beautiful, passionate, charming, and rich woman who had once been a teacher and student friend of Zhu Shifei, had forcibly barged into the family of Zhu Shifei and Zhuang Yaju. She had also quickly captured the affection of the Old Lady Grand Elder and her two children.At the same time, the young doctor, Feng Rui, who came to the City Hospital due to his uncle's conditions, also had an unspeakable affection for the ordinary, gentle and elegant Zhuang Ya Shu. However, because the other party was already a married woman, he could only bury all his love deep within his heart.It was the same love, but some people loved selfishly, some people loved selflessly. In the end, some people cultivated to the positive result, while some people could only eat the bitter fruit.Conspiracy and deceit came one after another, under Li Mei's deliberate coaxing, Zhu Shifei and Zhuang Yushu gradually went further and further away, and finally had to sign their names on the divorce agreement with tears in their eyes.Feng Rui could finally openly pursue the woman he loved, but Zhuang Yaju no longer believed in love.After he was forced to marry Li Mei, he finally learned the truth about everything. However, everything was irreparable. Finally, on an angry and sad night, he suffered a car accident. In the final moment of his life, he was still reciting the name of the woman he loved the most: Zhuang Ya Shu.The Zhuang Ya book that knew all this collapsed, her heart of love completely closed. Just as Feng Rui was at his wit's end, he received the news that Zhu Shifei's mother and child were being ill-treated at home by Li Mei.When Zhuang Yaju rushed back to the house, she was stunned by what she saw. Although she no longer had any connection with the Zhu family, she still resolutely assumed the responsibility of bringing up the two old people and their children. There would be a good reward for his kindness. This time, he finally had a chance to let Feng Rui show off.In the end, Old Lady, too, had a relationship with her child that was even deeper than blood ties. The selfless Feng Rui, who always stuck to his love, also waited for his own spring.As for Li Mei, who had plotted and plotted for love, she did not gain the heart of a man whom she deeply loved. She even walked on the road of drug trafficking, and after being awakened in prison, she committed suicide with regret and regret.

Download or read book A Soviet Theatre Sketch Book written by Joseph Macleod and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1951, A Soviet Theatre Sketch Book presents Joseph Macleod’s take on Russian Theatre in a semi-fictional way to show the effect of the productions upon different audiences. By using his pen as an artist uses his pencil, he gives, for the first time, an account of theatre audiences as composed of individual human beings and is able to paint the scenes vividly without neglecting the technical methods of the Soviet stage. By supple use of the sketch- book form, theatres, theatre-schools, actors, and actresses including some no longer appearing are painted into an all-over view of Russian and Ukrainian post-war life. In this book the author writes less immediately about the Soviet Union and does not depend on topicality or stop press news. Joseph Macleod and his wife visited the Soviet Union as the guests of the Russian and Ukrainian Societies for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries. This book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of theatre, history of theatre, and performance studies.
