skills building 3: using punctuation

correct punctuation can make your writing clear and easy to read. read some rules about how to use the most common punctuation marks in an e-mail to check whether you know how to use these marks correctly.

1. english words used to refer to the most common punctuation marks:

comma(,); full stop (.); question mark (?); exclamation mark (!); colon (: ); semicolon (;); quotation marks (‘’)or (“”); apostrophe (’); hyphen (-); dash (--).

read skills building 3, including the tip boxes to discover in what different situations these punctuation marks are used. pay special attention to comma because it is not used as often in english as it is in chinese.

usually we use a full stop at the end of a sentence. then another sentence begins with a word the first letter of which is capitalized. a colon or a semi-colon can also be used at the end of a statement sentence, but after it another sentence can be used without a capitalized letter at the beginning of it.

2. read the e-mail on page 57 and try to add the missing punctuation mark in each line.

answers

2. i am very fat→i am very fat.

3. …, just because i’m different from them→…,just because i’m different from them.

4. i don’t do sports → i don’t do sports.

5. is this really such a problem →is this really such a problem?

6. ‘you’re just big-boned, she says. → ‘you’re just big-boned,’ she says.123456

7. but i’m not sure if…→ but i’m not sure if …

8. … such a thing as being big boned? →… such a thing as being big-boned?

9. i don’t enjoy exercise it makes me tired. →i don’t enjoy exercise. it makes me tired.

10. …and love to eat fast food→… and love to eat fast food.

11. should i do→should i do?

12. what about exercise and food →what about exercise and food?

13. …stop eating→…stop eating.

step 3: writing an e-mail

read the guidelines in step 3 on page 57 and write an e-mail to a friend recommending better body gym. you should use not only what you have learned in steps 1 and 2 but also the correct punctuation marks to write the e-mail.

possible example

dear xiao lin,
