1. An Introduction of yourself and your character

Ich Heisse Alice und ich bin in der 11.Klasse im London. Ich bin kreativ und klug aber gar nicht unnachgiebig. Einerseits stimmt meine Familie mit mir aber anderseits sind meine Freunde nicht sicher, weil sie denken, dass ich stur bin obschon ich nicht bin, aber meiner Ansicht nach, was meine Familie denkt is wichtiger fur mich, jedoch muss ich gestehen, dass sie mich nicht mögen.

2. The things you like doing and what you look in a job

Zuerst bin ich unheimlich gut inChemie in der Schule. Naturlich mag ich es, mit Chemikalien in der labor Arbeit. Deshalb ist es wichtig für mich, einen Job in der feild von Chemie zu bekommen, hoffentlich in einem Labor, obleich heutzutage es schwerig ist . Ein guter Chemiker braucht __kreativ zu sein und meiner Meinung nach, bin ich absolut kreativ.

3. Job of a family member

Meine Mutter ist ___Direktorin bei Sony. Sie findet die Arbeit sehr anstrengend und oft muss sie nach Europa flogen. Im Vergleich zu ihre altere Job, sie verdient viel mehr aber ich mag es nicht, weil zuerst sie weg für eine sehr lange Zeit geht, und zweitens ich mich einsam fühle, immerhin sie ist meine Mutter. Ich glaube, sie solle zu Hause aus arbeiten, aber es hat keinen Zweck, wegen ihrer Arbeit.

4. An account of your work experience

Ich arbeitete bei GSK für meine Arbeitspraktikum für einen Monat und ich muss gestehen, dass es meine beste Erfahrung in meinem Leben war, Ich fühlte mich wie im Himmel. Ich habe in einem Labor gearbeitet und ich habe eigentlich viel_ Medizin gemacht. Es gefallt mir, dass ich die Chemiker des Monats war. In der Zukunft wurde ich auf jedenfall bei GSK arbeiten, weil es sich lohnt.

5. Your future plans when you leave school

Naturlich meine ideale Karriere würde GSK sein. Ich waere ein bekannter Chemiker sein und gleichzeitig möchte ich eine Menge Geld zu verdienen. Es ist sicher, dass um dies zu erreichen, muss ich gute Noten in der Schule bekommen und ich soll jedenfall genug Erfahrung sammeln, denn je mehr Erfahrung ich habe, desto bessere Chemiker werde ich sein.

I tried to edit as best I could in the time I have. I put the changes in bold face. If you see ___, then that means I erased a word or part of a word. The essay is very well written but I would caution you against using so many long sentences. It would help the flow of the paper if you would end the sentence and start a new one. For example, the last sentence in number five could be turned into two or even three sentences. I see no real problems with your vocabulary or grammar. I apologise if I missed any large errors.

Typically, freelance editors charge between $1.75 to $2.00 USD per page. Although this fee may seem high, the editing should include:

• spelling
• grammar
• sentence structure
• flow of content
• critique of how well the content makes sense
• suggestions for content improvement

Writers can do some of the first 3 items on their own. First, use the Grammar/ Spellchecker in MS Word. Make every revision you can do. If Spellchecker does not suggest a correct spelling on an incorrect word, look up the word online at Merriam-Webster Dictionary.

Second, MS Word doesn't give good tips on grammatical errors, but you can go to OWL Perdue to read up on grammar rules. Make sure that at least 80% of your sentences are in "active sentences" (meaning: subject+action verb with no "by"). A "passive sentence" would be "John was hit by a ball". The typical format of a passive sentence is subject+ a "being" verb" + a clause beginning with "by". To change a passive sentence is simply flipping the noun after "by" to the subject, insert an action verb, and make the original subject into an object, for example:

Passive: Sally was made fun of by the girls.

Active: The girls made fun of Sally.

Notice that an active sentence uses:

• a subject in the subject position, not in the object position
• an action verb
• does not use a form of "be" as a verb including, is, are, was, were, has, have, be, being, etc.
• is shorter and more compact than a passive sentence
• is easier to read
• and less boring compared to a text with all passive sentences.

Passive: John was tired of waiting so he got everyone's attention by smashing his fist down on the table.

Active: John tired of waiting for everyone's attention and smashed his fist down on the table.

Passive: Julie was crying hard.

Active: Julie sobbed.

or : Julie cried.

Passive: How much money per manuscript is charged by editors?

Active: (your Question above) How much do editors charge per manuscript?

Third, look for other "wordiness". All writers get "wordy". For example: "At this point in time, since no one else has raised their hands, we think we are done for this evening. Our next meeting, in due course, will be held, of course, right in this auditorium at 7 o'clock next Thursday, notwithstanding any bad weather."

Notice all the unneeded clauses. Look for repeated words (ex: next appears twice in one sentence). Writing Labs online have examples of "wordy phrases" that you can use to go through your manuscript. Remove as many instances as you can and re-word the sentence.

Lastly, once you have done as many revisions as you can, read your word out loud. We often hear errors that our brain skips over during silent reading. Do a paragraph at a time and work slowly.

Once you've done your own revisions, check with a local college. A grad student might be interested in doing further editing for a cheaper price.

NOON

Wouldn't it also have to be a palindrome before being turned upside down and backwards?

How about mom = wow, sis = sis, pip = did.

__________

No, that doesn't quite do it, other than "sis," because it should be the same word, not a different one. So start with the letters that become themselves or other letters when flipped. Here's my list, even though the first one is a stretch:

b=g, d=p, i=i, l=l, m=w, n=u, o=o, s=s, t=t, z=z

Given that, I've come up with a few:

mow pod tot bug bung suns stunts

My question is whether or not there's a word for these types of words.

Gig

_________________

There is a very good word for this kind of word: "ambigram." While some words are naturally ambigrams (like sis, mow, and suns above), there is a whole field of calligraphy/word art of these that people have developed.

SOS meaning save our souls

A CBD is the Central Between District in an area, so you would want to be looking at all the things that make that part of the city different to the other areas such as the suburbs. Think about the types of buildings, the reasons why they are there, why they are so close, and how people use the CBD.

The other meaning of CBD is cash before delivery.

it consists of four zones - the core, the frame, the zone of decay and the zone of improvment.
