1. 句子不完整：
ex.In China has more than 100 million subscribers to cable television.
(誤。In China為介系詞片語，無法充當句子主詞。)
➝ China has more than 100 million subscribers to cable television.
(正確。中國有超過一億個有線電視用戶。)
ex.Those who overweight or indulge in unhealthy diets are candidates for heart attacks.
(誤。overweight為形容詞，前方需有動詞。)
➝ Those who are overweight or indulge in unhealthy diets are candidates for heart attacks.
(正確。那些體重過重或對不健康飲食不節制者是心臟病的潛在病患。)
ex.Divorce is more common.
(誤。比較級後一般要有than，清楚指出比較之對象。)
➝ Divorce is more common than it was one generation ago.
(正確。現在，離婚現象比上一代還要普遍。)

2. 句子結構錯誤：
ex.Smoking, drinking are banned in many places of work.
(誤。smoking與drinking皆為主詞，要用連接詞而非逗點連接。)
➝ Smoking and drinking are banned in many places of work.
(正確。抽煙與喝酒在很多工作場合都被禁止。)
ex.The media distorts reality, categorizes things as all good or all bad.
(誤。句子中有兩組動詞distort與categorize，不可用逗點連接。)
➝ The media distorts reality and categorizes things as all good or all bad.
(正確。媒體扭曲事實，把事情界定為全部是好的或是全部是壞的。)
ex.It is advertising makes us buy something on a whim.
(誤。本句出現兩個動詞is與make，可改為強調句型來修正。)
➝ It is advertising that makes us buy something on a whim.
(正確。就是廣告讓我們心血來潮而買東西。)
ex.Education has been made available to more people nowadays, however, many adults have some problems with literacy and numeracy.
(誤。however語意為「然而」時為副詞，並非連接詞。因however前後皆為完整句子，因此不可用逗號連接。)
➝ Education has been made available to more people nowadays; however, many adults have some problems with literacy and numeracy.
(正確。如今，更多的人可以接受教育。然而，很多成年人在讀寫與計算方面仍然有問題。)
ex.Teamwork is indispensable, essential and crucial if you are not an experienced learner or worker.
(誤。indispensable、essential與crucial語意相近，造成語意重複累贅)。
➝ Teamwork is indispensable if you are not an experienced learner or worker.
(正確。如果你不是一個經驗豐富的學習者或工作者，團隊合作是非常重要的。)
