English Writing Exercise (All Levels)

Course 201, Unit 7, Lesson 3

Needs and Wants

Instructions: Compare “need” and “want” in sentences about six people: you and me, a boy and a girl, a man and a woman. Also, use positives and negatives of either “need” or “want” in some of the sentences. Example: I want a car, but I need to finish my college degree. She wants ice cream; she does not want broccoli.

Ricardo's submission: Average Rating:
It's pretty easy to get to my house. From Morretes to Curitiba you can go by train. You'll see some beautiful scenery along the way. When arriving at Curitiba, follow the signs to Avenida do Batel. Probably, you should take a taxi or public bus, then the car will make a U turn at the viaduct and will turn right at the first street. You should stop there. Then you should walk by yourself and look for a green house. So, you'll read a message on the door frame: "You were wrong. Go home!"

    Really good job. Only one part has a small problem. "Probably, you should take a taxi..." should read "You should probably take a taxi..."

    Well done!!

    It should be, "You should probably take a taxi or.................

    You don't have to say "door frame", you can simply say "door"

    Great job though. Keep it up!!
