A Review of the Literature

If asked to name the “national dish of Britain,” the average person is likely to say, “there is nothing more British than fish and chips,” but he or she might be wrong as it all depends on the criteria used to determine the national dish (Castelow, 2013). If popularity is the yardstick, then fish and chips would miss the mark, since each year in the UK it is outsold by hamburgers, fried chicken, pizza, and Indian and Chinese food (Alexander, 2009). And while this is true, fish and chips still play a vital role in the economic success of ...

In Chapter 3, George, in Ninety Percent of Everything, writes about the life of seafarers from the 1900s to the present. In bringing to life the world of the seafarers of the 1900s, George writes that there was so much at stake before the advent of technology. Who would have thought that life at sea could have been so tough, when all people do, is talk about the adventure and pleasure of travel that is associated with it. This, she says, is far from true. Carrying cargo from one corner of the earth to the other involved a lot of ...

In the document presented, there are various grammatical errors, which involve colloquialism, passive voice, simplifying, use of commas and long sentences. For instance, a whole new world is a colloquialism that should be replaced with a completely new world. The first sentence also contains passive voice by placing the phrase “was begun” where it was not supposed to be. The sentence would rather read as follows. “The begun of the History of Education was in the very beginning of time”. The writer had also made a simplifying mistake by not considering replacing the last of the conjunction with a comma. For example put into ...
