Go thru the mini-para and correct all the verbs that hav wandered from the proper path.

It had come to my attention that some employees will be bending paper clips everyday. A few copy clerks even bended an entire box. Because of my duty as your supervisor, I would remind you that paper clips have been expensive. In my ten years of superior wisdom as your boss, I always gave you a fair deal. I will have given you a fair deal in the future also, but only if you showed some responsibility. Therefore, I will begin inspecting the desks in this office this morning. By quitting time, I will have been checking every single one. If your desk contains a bent paper clip, you would find yourself out of a job.

check out for the ans on 23rd july.


lyfe bcomes wot we make of it, and wot we make of lyfe dpends entirely on how we manage d ideas tht come to our brain

and its all total different if one doesnt hav a brain

Sentence formation is a good game to play as well. Using the phrase "the way I am" we can form the sentences like, "The way I am dressed, resembles like a politician". In CAT grammar is of big concern.
