Education & Reference - 14 January 2007

I've been learning English for afew month now and I'm a little confused on how sentences with quotes work ^^;


I have seen sentences with huge quotes after them in newspapers and I'm not sure how many sentences they would count as.

Here is an example from a newspaper

President George Bush hailed the sentence. He said in Texas: “This trial is a milestone in the Iraqi people’s efforts to replace the rule of a tyrant with the rule of law. Today the victims of this regime have received a measure of the justice many thought would never come. Iraq has a lot of work ahead as it builds its society that protects all its citizens. Let history record today’s judgement as an important achievement on the path to a free and just and unified society.”


How many sentences would that count as? Thank you and I apologize if my English is hard to understand.

About how many hours a night do you (or did you) or children spend on homework? For each age range?

Is it too much or too little?

How much do you think is beneficial to students, and how much is detrimental?

For people in school, about how much homework do you do versus how much your teachers assign?

Details are appreciated!

If you teach 3rd or 4th grade could you please tell me how you grade everyday homework. Do you just grade it for a completion grade and then grade 2 or 3 a week for an actual grade? Or do you grade it everyday for an actual grade? Please tell me what grade you teach and how you grade everyday homework.

I was just snubbed by a local Community College.
Only one 'Reading 0311' class "made" rather than two, and the assignment went to the person who had teaching experience (i.e. not myself). In your opinion, should I have gotten the position?

I have:
I. B.A. (HIgh Honors; Honors Program) with majors in philosophy and political science
and a minor in English literature
II. M.A. (3.8 GPA) English literature with a minor in political science
III. A year at a top tier law school
IV. Over a dozen lectures (as an independent scholar or as part of an academic conference)
V. Fluency in four languages

The other person has:
I. B.A. in English literature (no honors)
II. M.A. in English Literature (GPA under 3.5)
III. Participated in ONE academic conference as a presenter

My undergraduate Uni. is ranked higher than the one she graduated from with her B.A. . We got our M.A.s at the same Uni.
