Taking a correspondence course involves a great amount of self-discipline on the part of the student.
When someone studies at home, there are always distractions to overcome: telephone calls from friends, favourite soap operas on TV, or sunny days beckoning outside the window. People who need to interact with their teacher on a daily basis may not wish to study a course on their own.
However, there are also definite advantages to studying “by mail.” A student may progress as rapidly as he or she wants to, instead of moving along at the same pace as a classroom full of people. A few missing high school credits can be picked up quickly, so the need to spend an extra year in school is eliminated. Instructors, or markers, are available to answer questions by telephone or e-mail.
Here are some of my answers: ( I'm having a tough time with this exercise... I need some help)
a.Noun. : home, window
b.Relative pronoun: who (?)
c.Article: a
d.Regular adjective: sunny (?)
e.Pronominal adjective: (?)
f.Regular adverb: quickly
g.Preposition – single word : on (the part of the student) from (friends)
h.Preposition – group of words: full of , on the part of (?)
I.Conjunction – single-word co-ordinate: (?)
j.Conjunction – subordinate: (?)
k.Verbal – gerund : beckoning , taking, (?)
l.Verbal – infinitive: to spend, to answer, to study
m.Appositive: (?) (?)
n.Expletive: there (and it ) , there (are also)
o.Predicate – smiple: involves
p.Complete subject: (instructors, or markers ) (?)
