(4) Furthermore, they must make sure that any product or medication they take does not contain a prohibited substance.III. Put the following group of sentences into correct order. Write the number of the reordered sentences on the Answer Sheet. (10 points)
Every semester we have the opportunity to evaluate our instructors, to judge their lectures, their interest in students' problems, methods of assigning work, and general ability to conduct a class. It is very difficult to evaluate their performance objectively. Another irresponsible form of evaluation occurred when James rated his instructor excellent because the instructor is "easy", who gives few tests and only assigns one paper during the entire term.
Both Senta and Sam were not fairly evaluating the instructor. They were affected by the grades they were earning and were biased in their judgments.
Her friend Sam wrote a great description of the same instructor because he received an A in the course.
For example, Senta recently wrote irresponsible remarks about her instructor because she was failing to pass the course.
On the other hand, James rated Professor Jones poor because he assigns text work daily, gives pre-test and post-test reviews, and packs his lectures with a lot of information.
IV. Composition writing (70 points)
Why do most people find Monday is the hardest day in a week?
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
Write a composition of about 150 words to discuss the issue. |
